MOSCOW. July 30.-The church in
Russia has been reduced from riches
to great poverty. Ten years ago the
income of the Orthodox Church alone
was s70.OO0,o00 a year. and its lead
ers had the position and income Of
great princes. This is all gone. All
churches and church buildings arc
now the property of the state. The
church buildings are being trans
formed for secular purposes and town
monasteries and nunneries are being
turned into workers dwellings.
unnecessary and are transformed
into workers clubs and social cen
tiers.
The former Archbishop of Moscow
lived in great state in great palace.
The present archbishop lives in tiny
apartment on the third floor of
house in a poor. noisy street. with
drug store underneath him. The
monks of Alexander Nevski Lavra.
formerly one of the richest monas-
teries in Russia. are now living on
bread and water and are dressed ini
their last remaining garments. Whlehl
are rapidly becoming rags. One sees
old priests as beggars, cab drivers
and street sellers.
There is constant official and semi
official pressure among the workers
against religion. No person who
practices religion in any form can be
a member of the-communist party.
Active propagondist campaigns,
largely organized by young commun-
lists and semi official bodies, are con
stantly proceeding. These take the
form of campaigns in the factories
and are run with the zeal OF Il Billy
Sunday revival. only they are against
and not for faith.
The most notable example of anti
religious literature IS u newspapei
called the Atheist. 1t is illustrated
with striking cartoons drawn with
great. IL crude. artistic power. This
paper represents God as a bearded.
foolish and frightened old man.
Christ as a feeble. effeminate molly
coddle, and the Virgin Mary in way
which il is impossible to detail. II
associates God with corruption. op-
preston and cruelty.
