LETTER FROM RUSSIA
AWFUL CONDITIONS RELATED

This letter came from Russia to 8
gentleman in Cleveland, Ohio, a Rus
sian making his home in America:
Dear Brother:
81 have a chance to send you this
letter by friend of ours who goes
abroad.
81 wish to give briefly the picture
Of the life in Soviet Russia.
Hunger, Indulgence and disease kill
hundreds of people every day. The
people die like flies and dead bodies
lie in the streets for several days
and rot.
"The most hunger is in the Volga
region and Crimea. Inhabitants have
eaten up all the cats, dogs, horses and
have entered into cannibalism. Often
mothers kill their children, cook and
eat them.
"There is no hope for help and this
makes our life worse every day. All
who have a chance flee from Russia.
If you are able to do something for
us know that will do it, because we
do not know what will happen to us
month to month. We would all with
great pleasure leave the country of
"communistic paradise" and go
abroad.
81 was just graduated from the
high school, but / am not allowed to
attend university because of my past
service with the Whites. Now / am
helping my father and we both can
hardly earn enough money for several
pounds of black bread
"Yes, the life is a terrible night
mare and is daily getting worse. All
are emaciated and downcast and be-
seech aid-but there is none nor any
place from which to obtain it. The
fields in Russia have not been sown
and next year Russia will die out.

Beats Heaven

All people in California are boost
ers, but the people in Pasadena lead
the procession. This is one of their
stories:
A man died, went to Heaven and St.
Peter politely was showing him the
sights. Presently they came to a
large cage filled with men and women.
What does this mean?" "Why do
do you have these people shut up?"
"Well, it's this way" said Saint
Peter. "These people are from Pasa-
dena and it's the only way we can
keep them from going back"
