 This supply, added to available foodstuffs from the surrounding ter ritories, is considered by bolshevik officials to assure the two cities against starvation, no matter what effects the threatened famine may have upon the rest Of the country. Petrograd and Moscow, the "hearts' of the revolution, which during the past three years have suffered more from starvation than the rural com
