B0LSHEVISM STANDS FOR
MONEY TO IGNORANT

PARIS, June 20. Correspondence OF
the Associated Press. )-Bolshevism, in
the untutored mind of the Russian
proletariat, is a system under which
everybody has plenty of money and one
needs to work only two or three hours
a day, writes n special correspondent
Of L'Intransigeant from Russia. The
money they needed, the moujiks were
told, they would find in the factories,
and all they would nave to do would be
to go and get II. Disappointment
awaited them In most cases, for the
great majority Of the manufacturers
were ruined, and the office cash boxes
were generally empty. The next course
was TO seize the proprietor by the
throat. Where Is our money! they
would demand. The money that we've
earned by our sweat and blood?"
one plant owner answered that he
had no money, and offered to prove by
his books that he had not even enough
TO keep body and soul together.
The men funbled through the books,
but being ignorant Of the RUE of three,
they could not understand the entries.
Then somebody found an entry Of
1000, 900 rubles under mortgages" the
Russian for which is 'amortizatzia."
What Is this2" they demanded furi-
ously. "AmortiZatzia must be the name
of a m She has gotten our money
Who is she? Where Is she?"
The unfortunate owner vainly at
tempted TO explain, The mob gave HIN
five minutes to Confess" after which
they shot him against his factory wall.

GOVERNMENT TO PUT UP
TUBERCULOSIS TOWNS

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., June 90
Special reconstruction towns may be
established by the government In the
rear future, where soldiers suffering
from tuberculosis a regain their
health and at the same time work al
light trades to fit themselves for a full
return to industrial life. said Col. Estes
Nichols, commandment of the United
States general hospital No. is, at New
Haven, Conn, In an address at the an
nual meeting of the National Tubercu-
losis association today,
This Is being considered" he says
"as a part OF Uncle Sans plan for vo-
cational re-education which, since the
armistice, has for its purpose the fit
ting of men disabled by the war for new
occupations in civil life"
The Idea Of special communities for
these men and their families has been
advanced by Capt. +. A, Waugh. OF the
United States army sanitary corps, and
would be for the purpose of bridging
over the gap between sanatorium treat
ment and fun return to industry.
These towns" said Col. Nichols,
might be located upon lands in the
national forests, This would permit OF
the setting up of attractive and health
full wood working industries for the pa
TENTS and afford an opportunity for
them to retain permanent control oil
land holdings after they were cured.
NO matter Where these towns might
be located proper medical supervision
would be necessary" he said, but,
whereas. medical treatment has first
place In sanatorium care of sufferers
from tuberculosis. productive industry
would take precedence in the proposed
reconstruction towns, These commune
ties would require financial assistance
at first, but might eventually become
self-supporting,'
Surgeon h ]. Lloyd. of the United
state public health service, said the
building of the Panama canal was but a
days work in comparison to the task
OF Graduating tuberculosis.
The tuberculosis problem when re-
duced to It's lowest terms" he said,
means he germ OF tuberculosis on the
one hand and the newborn babe on the
other, inasmuch as no baby is ever
born with tuberculosis, II the two could
be. kept apart there would not be any
tuberculosis problem"
