Mind Upon Mind

Bolshevism is bad thinking, and it can
only be cured by good thinking. The pres
ent condition of affairs in certain parts of
Russia is so unutterably sad, so inextri-
cably confused, that one instinctively feels
that little kindly Intelligence would go a
long way if we could get contact-the i'm
pact Of mind upon mind.-Malcolm Lynn, in
The English 'Revicw.

highest positions, but for all positions of
responsibility. There are too few foremcn,
bookkeepers, clerks, Office boys, skilled me-
chanics-the people who do the daily work
of life. The men in the economic and
military units sent to Russia could, under
proper course of training, learn much of
the language and life of the country and
be ultimately. highly useful and indispen-
sable in Americas Russian service"

United Press STAFF Correspondent
NEW YORK. July s.-The Bolshevik
monetary system IS probably the most
spectacular flanc!al experiment In his
tory. At present It Is q neck and neck
race between The printing presses snd
the decreasing value OF the ruble, as
eyiden-ed by prices, which are soar
ing steadily higher.
The Bolshevlks began their financial
experiment with the following idea in
mind. They said money was The source
o. all evil, since it represented wealth.
According 10 the Bolshevik creed, in
d.vidusl wealth is bad. IL causes
luxury and privilege, they said So
the Bolsheviks decided TO ultimately
a5ollsh money.
The Bolsheviks had TO tolerate
money since the people had a quantity
Of 10 and refused TO cOuntenance its
abolition outright Money was needed
10 support and build up the Boil
shet-' governmental machine.
Then some Bolshevik had a happy
idea, which was readily adopted, 70
Nss TO print more paper money. and
print 10 in such enormous quantities
that the government could not pos
sibly be short OF funds.
Since the Bolshevk government had
connscated everything and therefore
owned everything in Russia, IL could
print money without bOthering 10 pro-
vide for special securities, the leaders
reasoned. Hence money was not num-
bered serislly. Nobody knows how
much exists.
The paper ruble Is decreasing in
value. But that fulhils the original
idea. Eventually the ruble may be
worth nothing. Then nobody will
want rubles, says the Bolshevik. They
claim that money viii then autOmat-
ically disappear. Thus 70 IS only a
question OF speeding up The printing
presses.
However, money has not disappeared
so readily. despite the simplicity OF the
plan. Unexpected difficulties have
arisen.
In the frst place, prices soar as
money decreases In value. To meet
the cost OF living. wages are raised by
the unions almost monthly. The in
dustrial unions dictate the wages in
Russia.
Even with the rapidly rising wages
il Is difficult for the workman TO buy
tho necessary food. especially II he has
a family. In most families everybody
IS working.
To make matters more complicated,

The government has requlsiti0ned all

still hampers these printing press
finances.
The Bolshevik ruble Is a small note,
about two inches long and an inch and
a half wide. The most common pieces
are the twenty and forty .ruble
amounts. More recently one, two, three
and five ruble pieces havo been added.
These.Tubles, especially the twentiesr
are printed in big pages like stamps

10 a subordinate, giving orders 70 run
out and buy something. A hundred or
two hundred rubles are torn or with
the finger nails leaving an irregular
margin, often tearing the notes them
selves, when a bill is paid. Big bills
are usually paid with strips or pages
Of rubles. Only the poor have time TO
