Concerning the Jan. 30 editorial, "Mr. Aso outlines goals": I sincerely hope that the Aso administration will stop the practice, announced on NHK, of some companies' letting go women who are on maternity leave. Surely this is illegal or at least unconstitutional? In any case, it is sure to reduce the already too low birthrate unless the government stops it.
