From the Grand Rapids Press.
In his series of articles ON the new Rus

Edward Russell points out the interesting
fact that lawyers and politicians, so popu-
lar for public office holding purposes in
this country, are an unknown quantity in
the government of the new democracy.
Men and women of Russia standing on an
equal franchise basis haVe elected a legis-
1ative body of $50 members wholly from
the toilers and producers of the nation
farmers and workers in the factories.
After looking it over Mr.. Russell gives it
as his opinion that 'it is the most re-
markable Legislative body in the world

cant, the most satisfactory and admir-
able
Mr.. Russells prediction that the new
Russia. will show the world something of

acter in the constitution that is being
drafted is easy of belief. The students of

years that Russia was under the yoke of
autocracy and the imumerable defects of
its governing. system spurred them on to
the search for the ideal deTnocracy-a

new Russian government is being nodded.
Those who conpose the producing power
of the land are the lawmakers and the
law administrators and they are making
good, according to Mr.. Russell, ever in the
face OF terrible odds.

Before the state council of defense at
