refuse and their condition is a per-

"The transmission of letters is
gratuitous, but the postal service is
most irregular. and frequently weeks
pass before a letter posted at Moscow

telephones and telegraph system are
monopolized by the soviets. When the
Bolshevist revolution broke out at
the end OF 1917 there were nearly
1900, 900 residents in Moscow; now
the population is less than 900 900.
Famine and cold reign supreme.
The exhausted population is dying OF
hunger or is being massacred. Flight
is impossible. Few trains are run

to obtain a railway ticket without
the authorization OF the soviets. The
temperature in most OF the houses
rarely exceeds or I degrees above
the freezing point.
Fight for Dead Horses.
Terrible scenes are enacted in the
streets. A horse, exhausted by star
walton falls dead. Men and dogs fight
ravenousIy with each other to secure
the flesh.
Thousands of persons belonging to
the educated classes are wandering
destitute in the streets, no shoes upon
their feet. Their clothing is a mass OF
rags and they beg a few morsels of
food to keep body and soul together.

have been 'nationalized,' and only
books approved by the Bolshevists
may appear.
