Slaves of Centuries
Were Masters Overnight

"Thank God, away from the To-
varishi!"
And after all, the Bolsheviki lead
ers are not bad people. Undoubt-
eddy they mean we'll; they would like
to see every one fed, clothed and
generally happy. But most of the
leaders spent the greater part Of
their lives in prisons and books.

ers," they understood literally, and
now when suddenly. perhaps much
against their own expectation, they
came into power, they tried to carry
their theories into practice, but
without success. Instead of Great
ing an ideal state Of affairs AMI
making every one happy, they
brought ruin and chaos, even for the
workingmen themselves, whose hap
piness they undoubtedly desire.
Serfs and slaves of centuries can
not overnight become masters and
rulers. They need leadership and
guidance, and as to leadership Of
the Bolsheviki. here is an instance:
A group of railroad employees
came to Foreign Minister Trotzky
and complained that they had no
money to carry on their work of
sportation.
"Why, go to airy bank and take
it, he replied.

great Institutions of learning. Most
of them lived on some SO rubles a
month, which they received from
their parents at home, and the
poorer students supported themselves
by teaching. Now no one thinks Of
study, and as all the schools and uni
versities are closed there is no
teaching to be done and even no
trains to go back home.
There were never so many pros
titutes in the streets of Petrograd
as now, and drunken soldiers lead
schoolgirls Of sixteen to hotels for
the promise of a meal or even cup
Of coffee.
People emigrate from Petrograd
by thousands. Trains are not run
ming every day to different parts Of
Russia, and not infrequentIy one has
to stay for days at the station wait
ing for a train; once in the train
the citizen of Petrograd gives
sigh of relief.

soldier in his house, and besides,
they always work in groups; they
use their rifles as. freely as their
swords, and so the citizens who
have no connection with the Bolshe-
wiki and their guards-that means
all the middle and upper classes of
Petrograd - have formed new
party which is humorously called
"lspugannaja IntelIgentzia,' the
equivalent in English being 'the
frightened intellectuals." The
party which includes about four
ffths Of the Petrograd population
agrees not to leave the house after
dark, not to open the door unless
they recognize the voice Of the caller
from the outside; not to look out Of
the window in case of street dis
orders, etc.
Many factories are closed; indus
try is paralyzed. There are no per
formances at the Maryinsky and
Alexander theatres Many cabarets
are shut down and Petrograd, once
the Paris of Russia, is now not more
lively than an ordinary provincial
town, except for the big army OF
soldiers and the numberless meet
ings which add some noise to the
forced quietness Of Petrograd and
give the city life and color.
In the first days of the revolution
people were frightened of every
noise in the street. They have seen
so much bloodshed at the hands of
the Red Guards and their armored
cars that when an ordinary motor
car passed along the street people
were running for shelter in the side
streets and behind the doors of
houses and stores, or fell fat on the
sidewalks.
But life is now getting into its
normal shape" as far as is posi-
Bile in these abnormal times in
Russia.
Stores are open at least till dark.
Cafes are open and Japanese Geisha
girls sing and dance to amuse the
visitors; tea is served with one small
piece of sugar and black coffee with
no sugar at all Clerks are busy III
the Offices checking losses, writing
reports to their foreign headquar-
ters, or asking provincial branches
for favors in the way of food and
provisions, which are in the provin-
cial towns not so scarce as in the
capital. In some jewelry and fur
stores trade is going on behind
closed doors.
The telegraph is nearly abolished
in Russia; not that the wires are
damaged or the apparatus out Of
order, but simply because the tele-
graph operators are so busy with
political meetings and discussions
that the kilograms arrive at speed
of first and second class mail.
The mail service is still worse.
Letters from Petrograd to Gatchina,
which in normal times arrived the
same day, take now about a week to
deliver, and from Petrograd to
Minsk, which is only two days jour-
ney, letters travel now three weeks
and more owing to the scarcity Of
trains.
In a most pitiful condition are the
twenty thousand students of the diff
ferent colleges and universities &C
Petrograd The Russian capital
was once the centre OF education in
Russia and from all parts of the
country young men and women came
to Petrograd to accomplish their
study in the arts and sciences at the

all humanity, and all the officers,
many of them generals who distin-
guished themselves on the battle
fields, admirals of the Russian navy,
who served with honor for scores
of years. are now merely "bour-
geoisie," whose lives are at the mercy
of their soldiers and sailors?
Officers Killed by
Their Own Soldiers
Over one hundred and fifty young
Russian officers were killed by their
own soldiers in Petrograd in the
course of one week, and no one was
punished for this wholesale murder:
three officers were killed by the Boil
shevik guards while prisoners at
the Fortress of Peter and Paul, and
countless stories of a similar kind
are related every day in the press
and by eyewitnesses. Of course.
the opposition press is now under
strict censorship and many news
papers are altogether suppressed.
Three years at the front with
nothing but death and destruction
have made the uneducated soldier a
brute, and a selfish brute at that.
To him the revolution is nothing
but an opportunity to take advan-
tage of every one and everything.
He sticks to the Bolsheviki because
he knows that they will not send him
to the war again; he hates the bour-
geoisie, because some of them still
have plenty of bread and even d
piece Of sugar, something which he
has not seen for weeks. After each
meeting at the university audito-
rum and each Grafton at street
corner he considers himself the vic
tim of world conspiracy of CAPT
talists and imperialists, and he goes
on fighting every one who is not Of
his class.
There was once great respect
among the common people for the
intellectuals in Russia. Now this is
past and gone. One talks of uni
versity professor as eff conspira-
tor, and one has to excuse himself
for being educated.
have spoken of the food short
age-after all the rest a minor evil
half pound of bread daily, a
pound Of sugar each month, small
quantity of potatoes, one egg for
each child every week, half pouni

in Petrograd by the food commits

of the city.

comes to his turn the baker may au-
nounce that the supply is exhausted
and the citizen returns home with
no bread at all; on the other hand,
one may come across soldier with
pocket full of sugar who is offer
ing to sell it at kopecks n lump.
One cannot be too particular about
the cleanliness of the soldiers
pocket or the way he handles his
wares.
The Russian civilian will quickly
transfer the lucky purchase from
the soldiers pocket to his own and
Will run home to announce his good
luck. Occasionally one may come
across an additional pound of bread
or potatoes for fabulous price, but
these chances do not occur every
day. and the citizens of Petrograd
have so accustomed themselves TO
the new conditions that many fami-
lies live on communal terms, shar-
ing in common the rations of to-day,
TO have access to the common ra-
tons of tomorrow when some one
else will fail to be in time for his
ration.
Famine Levels
Many Distinctions
Famine is a great democrat. On
the bread lines one rubs shoulders
with princes and servant girls, work
! ing women and ladies in rich fur
coats, and the joy of getting a full
ration is not to be described. OF
/ course, there are the very rich who
! still occupy rooms at the big hotels,
pay % rubles for one meal and
get almost everything they want.
But this class is rapidly diminish
ing since the Bolsheviki have got
control Of the banks. A depositor
is not allowed to withdraw more
than 500 rubles, no matter how big
his fortune may be, and the Bolshe-
wiki take good care to deprive the
'bourgeoisie' not only of luxllries
but even of ordinary, everyday con-
veniences, which are still possible
in Petrograd. when the waiter is
tipped 10 ruble bill.
Finally, there is the matter of
money / was sitting in my room
on the Fontanla Street, for which
by the way-I paid as much as eight
times the normal rent Suddenly I
heard knock at the door.
'Voydite" C'Come in'D. I said.
In came my neighbor of the upper
floor, an oil merchant of considera-
BILE means. His face was all smiles
and confusion, as he said:
"Dobri Gospodin" (''Good Sir"),
Gould you cash me a check for one
hundred rubles? In fact. it is my
own check, but the bank is closed
and there is not a single ruble
ready cash in my house to go out
shopping to the grocery. All my
fault! | neglected il Yesterday"
He stopped and waited for my
answer.
OF course, this last phrase was
merely an excuse. The banks wero
closed for the last three days No
body knew when they were going to
be opened again, and my neighbor
needed the money.
Ny neighbor was Il business man.
He owned an automobile, and kept
large apartment for his family;
in ordinary times he would consider
it below his dignity to call on me,

rooms for which Fontanka is ia
