MOSCOW, March 28.-Soviet Rus sia is once more under the shadow of an epidemic wave of typhus fever and recurent typhus which has been spreading since November last. The Volga- famine area isa chiefly affect ed In the carter of Russia the epi de,rfc has invaded the big towns of the Moscow and Petrograd govern mental d.s.ric's and in the west the cities of Minsk Snolensll, Witebsk ard in the north Vo.ogda.
 Tn Mosc1w itself the epidemic is g~~w'ro ra Tidlv and the toll which it is exacting from the Moscok popu. Iation is already now seven to eight times I7meer than that of last seq sor. and 1t is feared that before the spring mor.hs arc over it might well o.l,re~ew the e0idemic of 1919.
 Ir December over 4O00 cases Of tv-sns were register in Moscow, while during the first three weeks of Jar-rary 4783 ceres were register d in ha-~litals. But the real number of cases is much higher than this figure
 The e7idemic shows no decline a Id de7th casualties are not below 40 per cept. Hospitals are medicaments are veev inadequate. The Moscow hos Ti'a's ara overcrowded and the Mos. COW Soviet is trying to provide 5000 new beds in them to meet the epi- demic.
 The railways are the channels b. which the epidemic is carried from the famine stricken area into Mos cow Every train brings lice from the Volga districts. The Moscow sta tions were many refugees homes as well as prisons. concentration camps and the Tartar hotels are the chief ce-ters which feed the epidemic here
 To cope with the situation, the gov. ernment stopped passenger traffic on the Eastern railways for six weeks. Baths have been organized at Moscow railway terminals and all refugees and military detachments arriving here are compelled to use them. In Moscow itself bathing facilities were afforded in all districts.
