Moscow Women Going Mad and Com.

Conditions in Russia are described
as SO critical that many women are
ending their own lives or becoming
insane, because of lack of work and
the fact that they face famine.
Il know of two girls, friends of our
friends, who committed suicide and
two of the best known young people in
Russia, Il man and a girl, have gone
crazy in the last two DAYS" writes
Miss Elizabeth Boies, war worker of
the Y. w. G. a. in Moscow. THE

not see, for there is constant de-
crease in work and even in their ter
rible distress these people have not yet
come TO the point whore they throw
down their price and do anything.

are trying to find her a job, but it
almost can not be done. No one wants
to take another person into the family
because it means another mouth to

recently of the death of the young
Alexis ROmanoff, the former heir ap-
parent, but none has been confirmed
from any authoritative source. The
most recent circumstantial account OF
his supposed whereabouts was printed

These declared he was then in TobOlsk,

because Of illness when the other
