Having reached Boston city of Massachussets, Rabindanth got in the hotel Copley-Plaza and read from his writings in Wellesley College in the evening. Boston Globe wrote on 2nd Dec;
" The first lecture in the all-college lecture course at Wellesley College delivered this evening in Billings Hall by Sir Rabindranath Tagore ....He read a number of his own poems and a story of his own. Pres Ellan F. Pendleton of the College introduced him."
Sujit Mukherjee wrote, " A less formal but no less sincere token of appreciation was the hand written document given to him by the members of th College committee which arranged his visit to Wellesley College."
The reporters were after Rabindranath even in Boston. on 3rd Dec, two big articles on his interviews were published in two papers, Post and Globe . The
deliberation written by Carl Wilmore was more significant in the title " Poet is Against Feminism / Tagore scores Women Competition with Men";
"Suffragists who have appropriated Sir Rabindranath Tagore as 'one of their own' because of his famous play "Chitra", can now prepare to be shocked -- Tagore isn't a feminist and regrets woman's economic competition with man" Rabindranath wrote," I wrote Chitra years before feminism had become known. I did not write it for propaganda purposes. it is just a play." He wrote to motivate, "That is just where you Americans fail to grasp true art. You always look in every work of art for a contribution to your present social development because you are in development stage. What does it matter if there is feminism in "Chitra" or not ? Accept it as a work of art, as poetry, but not as a propaganda."
