A1~ 9 'Sl' III ()N VISIT TO IVAN IVANOV1TCH
MOSCOW

UNo-DAY manicuring establishment
opened for business on tho Kouznct-
sky Nest, Moscow, which seven years
ago was one of tho principal shopping
streets OF the city. And to-day on the Tverskoi
Boulevard man who was carving in h,s
arms small sack of -four inadvertently
dropped it, and burst into tears as he looked
down ut the white splotch on the pavement
an realized the tragedy it implied.
That is the Russian capital of to-day, a
kaleidoscope succession Of incongruties and
oontrasts-of the first faint STRINGS of a new
prosperity, coupled with the depths of degra-
dation, despair and misery.
Moscow itself has experienced so much
since the first graves Of the 1917 revolution
were dug by the Kremlin wallis in the Rcd
Square, that it pays scant attention TO such
incidents those mentioned above. Occa-
sionai patrons entered the manicure shop, and
emerged later gazing curously at their nails,
as though they could not quite comprehend
the luster they displayed And although
""oAs viz hdil-uOZen people VINO stopped 10
help the man scoop up what was left Of his
treasure there must have been two or three
who were very hungry, not one attempted to
make away with any Of the now discolorcd

There are about 100000 people In this
city to-day. If foreigner hero were to be
asked how they live he could only answer:
