In 1937, Khetagurova wrote a letter to the newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda calling for women to volunteer to work in the Far East. During the construction of Komsomolsk-on-Amur the population included 6,000 male workers for every 30 women. When it was completed there were 300 men to every 3 women. Thousands of women responded to Khetagurova's call and the movement was known as Хетагуровское движение (Khetagourovskoe dviznenie, Khetagurovite Campaign), the members of the movement were known as khetagourovki (khetagurovites). By the autumn of 1937 11,500 women arrived in the Far East.[7][8][3][4][9][5][10][11][12]
