SOVIET RUSSIA To
Use CHURCH JEWELS
To RELIEVE FAMINE
rRepubllcan A. p. Leased Wlrel


MOSCOW, Feb. 13-The initial
steps for the carrying out of the de-
cision OF the all Russian central
committee to use the valuables in
churches of all creeds in Russia for
the benefit of the famine sufferers,
includes directions to the commits
sariat Of justice to work out the
method and the instruction for exc
cution OF the decree as soon as pos
sible.
The value OF the gold and silver
candlesticks, the gold covered and
bejeweled ikons. the chalices and
salvers is variously estimated. but
in weight the precious metals and
the jewels alone are reported to be
worth hundreds Of millions Of dollars.
Although varying sentiments have
been evinced by churchmen as TO
the stripping Of the historic edifices
Of the country of treasures dating
back for centuries, some OF the nota-
bles among them approve the idea.
Archbishop Evodokin OF Novgorod,
In letter in the Pravda. advises the
sacrifice as "a loan to God" to be re-
paid in heaven. II warns that cold
heartedness toward the famine
stricken will bring punishment in the
future
"It is shame to wear gold and
diamonds, when each jewel not only
will wipe away a tear OF suffering
humanity but also will save a man
from DEATH" says the archbishop $
