What happened on Monday October 12, 1936?

Here's what happened on October 12, 1936:

• Italy Increases War Production Measures The Italian cabinet, under Benito Mussolini's leadership, adopted new national defense recommendations that dramatically increased work expectations. This included extending the work week for war materials producers from 40 to 60 hours, signaling Italy's growing militaristic preparations in the lead-up to World War II.
• British Women Allowed in Munitions Factories The London Gazette officially announced that women over 18 years old could be employed in munitions production, specifically filling three-inch mortar bombs. This marked a significant moment in women's labor rights and industrial mobilization, echoing similar developments during World War I.
• Dissolution of Heimwehr in Austria The Heimwehr, an Austrian paramilitary militia with right-wing nationalist tendencies, was officially dissolved and absorbed into the Fatherland Front, a corporatist, authoritarian political movement led by Chancellor Kurt Schuschnigg. This marked a significant consolidation of political power and reduction of independent militia groups in pre-World War II Austria.
• Deadly Typhoon Strikes Philippines A catastrophic typhoon devastated Luzon, Philippines, resulting in at least 310 confirmed fatalities. The natural disaster caused significant loss of life and likely extensive property damage, highlighting the region's vulnerability to extreme weather events.
