money IS quite insufficient" continued
| the document. ''the Soviet Government
shows tendency TO pay the worlnmen
In kind-food and clothing. However
this remuneration is equally insufficient
In Petrograd each workman has a ra-
ton card a. which entities him TO
from one-fourth 10 one-half pound OF
bread per day. This. together with the
Nastc card gives a pound of bread per
day. Other necessities are distributed
occasionally and differently in various
districts.
In Petrograd this summer card "A
entitled the holder to five or six pounds
OF wheat, three or four pounds OF fish.
one-quarter pound OF tobacco. three
quarters pound Of sugar per month per
head
Footwear and clothing are distrib-
uted irrcgularly. and therefore 1t is inn
possible TO state even approximately
how much a worker gets OF this kind of
remuneration.
''Worldnen from the Kolpinsly Works
(near Petrograd) announces Tt Is sad
and shameful to think that the Russian
workman is condemned to extinction
owing to the foolish economic policy OF
the Bolsheviki. Half of the Russian
proletariat have already perished. Out
side the towns there is food In plenty !:
Il is, however, impossible to get at Il.
Purchase and sale are prohibited, prices
are high beyond reason
"A workman from the Putiloff Works
(n ePtrograd) says: In the full sense
of the word we are starving. as we exist
on bread and Soviet soup alone. We
are completely exhausted owing to ex-
cessive overtime and insufficient nour-
ishment'"

Mrs. Lloyd Georges Part.

Since the Premier's family has moved
TO Chequers she has come more and
more TO the front as a charming host
css capable wife and an intelligent
assistant. II not an adviser. She IS in
many respects to Mr.. lloyd George what
Mrs. Harding Is to t.nerica's President
The old tinsel days Of Downing Street.
set up by Mrs. Asquith, have gone. but
IN their place has been created the in
fluerce OF Cheauers. probably as much
broader and brighter to the women OF
England as Chequers is to Downing
Street In this atmosphere the Pre-
miers wife symbolizes the spirit shown
by the women OF England In the war, a
fplrit which has meant much for the
country and which has earned the deep
respect and esteem with which women
who now move IN political circles here
ore regarded.
In the recent by-election at Cardigan
in Wales one OF the hottest political
campaigns in England for several
months. Mrs. Lloyd George for the first
time took an active part. canvassing for
Coalition interests and addressing large
audiences. The Premier won. And Mrs.
Lloyd George continues to win more and
more for her husband.
In direct performance Lady Astor has.

manded political rights as counter
revolutionists Many comrades per.
ished in prison, were sentenced 10 hard
labor or even shot for the crimes o.
asking for freedom
The Russian workmen, the report
added. are forced to suffer under thess
conditions because they are obliged tc
remain silent, as they arc disbelieveo
when they speak against those who
fallaciously and insoiently call them
selves the representatives OF the peo-
pie. and who are so afraid OF the work
ers that. in practice. they have abol-
ished the right of voting and OF free
speech"
THE whole policy OF the Communist
Soviet Government toward the Russian
working classes and their organiza-
tons" declared the document. "can be
sunmed up as follows:
THE freedom OF the unions is
abolished. The unions are established
and work under the control OF the Soviet
authorities, and can only act in the way
prescribed by the Soviet authorities.
Freedom of meetings is abolished.
decree has been issued In accordance
with which meetings can only be ar
ranged by permission OF the Soviet
authorities.
Freedom Of speech Is abolished. 1t
Is crime to utter q word against the
Communists
Strikes are declared counter-revolu-
tionary acts. Worlmen who go on
strike are punished with brutality un-
heard Of in Western countries. Strikers
are not only imprisoned but deprived OF
their ratons.
Almost all branches OF industry are
under martial law Workers cannot
change from one factory or occupation
to another. They are forcibly enlisted
In so-called labor armies and overtime
Is compulsory.
Trade unions do not exist as inde-
pendent bodies they are subordinated TO
central organization and thus con-
verted into a compulsory government
apparatus.
"As a result of this policy the Rus
sian Industrial workers, being put into
a desperate position and unable to
obtain help from their own organiza-
tions. desert the cities and go to the
villages"
Because a large number OF workmer
have deserted the cities and are seeking
TO earn their living In the country. the
document declares that 'in order 70
save the situation and to detain the
workers In the towns the SOVIET Gov
ernment has had recourse to measures
of compulsion."
