Loot of All Kinds Comes
From Citizens and the State

Government confiscation, however, meant
that enormous valuable stores were seized
ard slowed away or put under seal. | was
told that due to the ponderous processes of
the inefficient bureaucracy, even to this
day an inventory of this property has not
been completed. And through the dishon.
esty of officials vast value in confscated
goods has returned to the channels of COM
mcrce.
No one In Moscow pretends to deny that
this is so. Lenine charges it in his
speeches, Communists accept it as part of
their problem The assertion is even
made that virtually everything now on
sale in the way of merchandise has been
stolen from the State. How extensive this
wholesale fllcbing may be no one can say.
not even the Government, which still has
no record of or successful control over its
possessions.
The new shopkeepers in some few cases
may be former merchants, but many H.
censees are novices in the field of com
MERGE. One Of the best restaurants in the
Arbat is operated by former millionaire,
his wife and son. All three wait on the
guests, but do not hesitate to shake hands
with them first. And in calling for
waiter the visitor must beware not to use
"tavarisht" (comrade) as he would to
nearly every one save fallen bourgeois.
He must say plain Citizen" If he tries to
leave tip he will find his money brought
back to him.
Near by is another restaurant opened by
the widow Of the Cars late Secretary of
the Navy. The wife Of one of Kerensky's
Ministers, who was the daughter of one of
Moscow's richest merchants, presides over
the most successful tea room in town. 1t
cost her about 100000 rubles (less than
s1,000) to pay for her first years license,
collect her equipment and arrange her
rooms, sum beyond the reach of even the
previously well to do but she had energy
and friends and now transacts lively
business. She also deals in art objects on
commission and many a treasure from
some formerly respondent house finds its
way into her showcases, to be sold, like so
much in Russia, for a fraction of its real
value.

New Free Trade idea

their property be confiscated. Most of the
shops have begun timidly in single room.
The first to open were flower and millinery
stores and hair establishments The latest
have been food stores de luxe, with win
dows showing such an assemblage of all
that dense crowds throng before them as
long as there is daylight.
The large part OF these stocks must
have emerged from hiding, for no import
is yet possible, and all merchandise was
formally il not effectively coniscated after
the October revolution. The hint is broadly
made that before long much more will be
brought out from secret places and the
Moscow shops will regain some of their
earlier opulence. Only recently the police
found five million dollars worth of silks in
barn just outside the city, and it is
natural to assume that other caches have
not been discovered. When it becomes
safe to fill up the shelves goods will not be
wholly lacking from this source

perhaps two-tnirds Of the fall seeding could
be undertaken, thanks to supply Of grain
from other parts, the famine region will
be weaker next year, and Russia as whole
will be likewise weaker. But that so
much suffering and so great waste of
human life can have so little political
weight is in itself gauge of the extreme
exhaustion of Russia

Coming back from the famine district to
the comparative comfort of cities, what do
we find? The one persistent impression
Moscow makes is of penury. The swarms
of emaciated people In the streets are
dressed in patches, the houses have not
been painted in decade, the dirty cobble
pavements are out Of repair, the sidewalks
are actually perilous with holes. There is,
too, teeming Asiatic activity contributed
to by the incessant stream of carts and
wagons the many pedestrians mostly carry
ing bundles, the ubiquitous dilapidated
horse cab and the numberless pedlars lin

BE A COCO LOSER

IF WE all liked to lose, this would
L be a shiftless and an ambitionleSs
life.
1t is natural to want to win in any
competition, business or athletic.
Any self-respecting man would like
to feel that he can outstrip the other
fellow in any race he enters.
He feels chagrined when he loses.
But If he amounts to anything he does
not show it.
To whine, to lose your temper, to
invent excuses, to show jealousy If
you lose, is poor craftsmanship and
poor judgment.
You may feel badly because you
have lost, and you ought to, but re-
member that you, and no one else, are
responsible. For If the competition
was one in which you had nc chance
Of winning you shouldn't have entered
II. If you did have a chance, it was
your fault that you did not improve
1t.
Be a good loser, therefore, and gen.
erOus to your opponent. But don't lose
too often.
Don't be so little concerned about
losing that you never try to win.
Don't feel that 1t makes no differ

ence how the race goes. When it is
over have q quiet little conversation
with yourself, and give general in
structions not to let the same thing
happen .sa,".
There is such 4 thing as being so
good a loser hat you like to lose. And
there are no competitions run off in
this world which you can afford to
enter merely for the pleasure of
letting some other man win.
You are perfectly justified in feel
ing bad when you have lost. You are
justified in taking yourself into q
corner for q lecture on the folly Of
losing. The continual loser will in the
end have to part with his s~elf-respect
and his courage, and become a mere
cumberer of the earth.
Try to win as hard as you can. If
you lose next time make up your
mind that you will win the next. De-
termine that you will win oftener than
you lose and that you will win as
nearly 100 per cent as possible.
Then when you do lose, you can
bear it with a better grace, for you
will know that such a thing is not
going to happen very frequently.
