MOSCOW, Ive seen Rus- sia, and now I can believe in miracles, for there is no word to describe the picture of Russia today, other than miraculous. And I do not mean that the picture is miraculously beautiful. In many ways it is unbelievably ugly. I stand and look at it with fascinated and astonished eyes, but for nothing on earth would I personally, under the present scheme of things, endure the enslavement and tyranny which its citizens must suffer who have been saved according to the gospel of Karl Marx. The old c z a r i s t government gamed the detestation of its subjects because of its notorious despotism. But compared to the government of today, life under the czar was free as a spring breeze. The wonder of wonders Is the ease and power with which this new works. system of s consumed A handful of with communistic theory and fanatical zeal, sit on high within the Kremlin walls, their eyes fixed on a book of political and social notions, and proceed to experiment on the lives and souls of 160,000,000 human beings, with as much impersonal detachment as a bacteriologist experiments with germs. Center Attack on Czar. In the beginning 1917 the proletarian leaders who had seized control of Russia, said: The czar has proved himself the greatest obstacle in the way of our of lifting the masses of workers out their slough of ignorance and missuper-despotislabor-leader- ery. First of all, then, if we are to extermiimprove our lot, we must nate the czar, his wife, his four Perdaughters, and his young son. to haps a bit brutal, but youve got be tough to get anywhere. And so the czar and his entire family were shot And the aristocrats and intellinever gentsia must go next. They'll take to our ideas about exalting to the factory workers and moujiks the throne.

First we'll amputate the church. A r waved his hand and abolished the church. The family must go next. Family unity is a capitalistic and bourgeois custom dangerous to communism. Our men and. women must be able to love whom they please, when they please marry and divorce on impulse. Our state will care for the children, and do it better than their parents. So the family was abolished too. is the Money, they said, source of all eviL Money was the support of the gentry and intelligentsia. We must destroy all private wealth and all means of accumulating it, lest these old antisocial classes come back. Seize Feasants Supplies. Money went next. Everybody was, and still is, allowed to share the same poverty together. But we must have industry and commerce to keep our people employed. We must sell our wheat and buy machinery. We havent enough wheat for our own needs, but we've nothing else to export, so we must seize the peasants private food supplies." The supplies were seized. Five million people starved to death from 1929 to 1931. There was no mourning for them mourning would be only sentimentality, a cardinal sin among Bolsheviks. The sacrifice had to be made for political expediency. The wheat was sold and machinery secured to make guns and tanks with which to defend the dictatorship. There is one last and very important gap to be closed to complete our despotism, said the leaders. We must use every means in our power to protect our new theories and our new liberated masses, from foreign capitalistic influences. No information, no enlightenment, from the world outside must come in. Russia must be a sealed box. Only then can we be complete masters. No foreign books not of a communistic character shall cross the borders, no newspapers or magazines that might reveal the false happiness of other people living under the enemys system will be tolerated. The movies, the theater, school books, must be rigorously censored. Nothing must be allowed to emerge that does not glorify the working man and damn the other classes. That Is exactly what the Bolshevik leaders have done. After 17 years of communism not a single movie can be shown that is not political propaganda, that does not sermonize. The entire industry has become merely a stick with which to beat the capitayists. The results are so appallingly dull that even communists atthe most wild-eyetend only from a sense of duty. Newspapers Echo Rulers. The newspapers are only echoes of the dictatorship, mouthing proletarian slogans. Even the great National library, the last bulwark of intellectual liberty, was gagged. The same warping of education, the same blinding of all else but proletarian prejud.ces and principles, kindergoes straight down to the labor-leade- counter-revolutionar- y d garten.

A WAWAvWwMUMUkiuku boy what they were taught in school about America and western Europe. We are taught the history of the communistic revolutionary movement in American and England, he said. No other history? I asked. History is just the lives of kings and capitalists and generals. There is nothing in it about the working classes. Do you learn geography in your school? Do you know where Argentine is? He had never heard of Argentine. Nor was any other foreign country more than a vague name. Such worldly knowledge as foreign geography is not allowed even to the working classes. The working classes Forward, the working classes! That is the the only cry heard in Russia. One of the great Soviet leaders recently exclaimed: I have given 15 years of my life to the working classes." And so he had. But not, be it understood, to the society as a whole. Only the working class. Once I witnessed a gigantic demonstration of this political patriotism, on Moscows magnificent Red square. It was to celebrate the anniversary of the Soviet regime. 2,500,000 Workers March. Two and one half million workers marched through Red square that day a river, a tidal wave, of humanity. Every factory, every trade, every school, every bureau, turned out with all its members, with banners, floats, placards, music, of a thousand kinds to prove their loyalty to the sacred cause. I left the Red square after the first million civilians had passed. I was too dizzy to endure more; dizzy from the numbers of moving legs and heads, dizzy from standing seven hours; dizzy from the waves of enthusiasm and energy that had engulfed me. I tottered home, asking myself how such a tyranny could achieve so much, how the workers leaders, so utterly Indifferent to the lives and hearts of the marching millions, were able to win such a magnificent response. I knew the answer: Universal education, complete emancipation of women, elimination of crime, prisons, unemployment, physical misery. Surely, I said, there Is great good and great power In this scheme of things. The Intolerance, the bigotry, the constraint, the intellectual gagging, which at present cut Russia off from the good will of the world, sooner or later must weaken and pass. (It Is already weakening at a rate alarming to Bolshevik fundamentalists.) Russia will emerge say in 23 years from a bath of blood and despotism. Into a really civilized and progressive nation, with a number of social institutions so far ahead of ours that, to her, we will seem In some ways as backward as she once seemed to us. Many of these new Ideas, born with such travail, we must accept, and the sooner the better. Thus is America going to develop, perforce, in the direction of new Russia's enlightened attitude toward the masses; while Russia at the same time develops towards America's Ideals of personal and intellectual liberty. The two greatest nations In the world must some day meet on the common ground of friendship and understanding, for both will have contributed something vital and enduring, each to the other.

More older persons indulge in this phantasy than has hitherto been suspected. Real playmates usually cause the gradual disappearance of these phantom associates, but occasionally they go with the child through high school and even Into adult life. Students Romantic Companion.

At fourteen years of age he saw Sari Maritza In the motion pictures and then forsook Marie for her. He made believe that he rescued Sari from savages, and then he built a stone fortress for her. This edifice still stands on a wooded knoll behind his home, a monument to an adolescent phantasy. May Indicate Creative Ability.

This removes the grit from the face, which might damage the blade, and also removes the external layer of sweat and sebum from the skin and hair, as well as other extraneous material. After the soap has been thoroughly rinsed off with hot water, a second layer of soap should be applied. This may be ones favorite shaving soap. It is to be thoroughly rubbed into the surface of the skin with the hand, copious amounts of water being used. These two operations should be made to consume f to three minfrom two and utes. Shaving should be begun by wetting the razor with hot water and keeping the face well lathered; both the razor and the face should be kept wet during the entire operation.
