Batuim, Sept. 20.-(By a Staff Cor
respondent of the Associated Press.)
Entrance into Russia through the
Black Sea may be compared to a visit
to a dreaded battle front. There's
lots of fear of death and destruction
but somehow one does not find them.
These elements to uneasy sleep seem
TO Turk always just a little farther
along.
The traveller has himself rammed
full of vaccines, v%accines against
cholera, pest. smallpox and typhoid,

to find that these diseases are just
now out of season. The only thing
he needs is q%uinine, not for himself
but for malaria patients about the
seaports.
Fear of Russia should not be based
on fear of violence, Of bodily hurt, so
much as to the discomfort of living
in a land where social and economic
conditions are very hard. Money is
hard to earn. Dock laborers at
Batum, when they work., may earn
5000 rubles, or eight cents per day,
and this is the price of two pounds of
bread.
After all the stories of revolutions
and counter revolutions, the murders
and what not. n is distinctly sur
prised to find people going about as
usual. There seem to be more peo-

where they come from. They swarm
about the cities, the train stations in
the country, thick as ants.
Getting Out Of Russia.
Yet rich and poe seem alike en-
gagged in the process Of, getting out
of Russia. Many Of the rich have
done so. Their old life has been
broken up. their social life, their life
of educating and rearing families.
Their manner of living and thinking
doesn't fit in to the new chaos. and
they prefer to get to Constantinople
SO much 80 that it has become al
most q Russian city-and thence

manage to retain wrecks of their for
tunes, for old Russia was rich beyond
the dreams of western Europe.
Everybody seems to have had gold
and jewels in abundance. Those with
property are still slipping away. and
without too much difficulty or him
drance from the Soviet.
Only they must use caution. A
certain Melikov. the Russian-Ameri-
can owner Of the newspaper Horizon,
in Tifiis, had his home requisitioned.
so he got leave to depart to Con-
stantinople. On the way his baggage
was searched, a diary was found tell
ing his Utmost reflections about the
Bolsheviki and the new order of life,
a diary that he possibly was intend
Ing to publish. The foolish man vas
hauled before the "Cheka," the
secret police with extraordinary pow
ers, from whose decision there is no
recourse. and he was executed.
Not Dreadful People.
Landing from one of the various
passenger and freight vessels that
run weekly in and out Of Baum. to
and from C~onstantinople, the traveller
finds that the B%olsneviki are not such
dreadful people after all. 1t Is far
easier than getting to or from ship
in Constantinople where the Allies
reign.
There are a lot of guards at the
gangplank, to steer departing travel
ers through the customs, but most
anyone passes back and forth who
