Cities and people are dying from lack of food. For more than two years the great bulk of the people have not had enough to keep body and soul together. Bread that Is half straw, dirty, sour, unpalatable, has been the chief diet of the Russian city dweller bread, and tea made of birch leaves. You cannot understand it, said Kibal-shlcons of the young anarchists working with the government In Petrograd, until you have been here some time.
