LEARNING FROM RUSSIA

We win indeed be poor scholars II
we are to learn nothing from the
experiments which have been and
are being made in Russia. The boil
sheviks began with what to them
was a beautiful theory but they are
having anything but a beautiful
time in their endeavors successfully
demonstrate 1t.
They began with the idea that the
government was to secure the
production of food and merchandise
and was to distribute these products
where needed. No middle men, none
of the hated bourgeoisie need apply;
those were to be wiped out. But
the peasants did not propose to go on
grubbing food from the soil for the
Industrial dilettante in the cities to
eat. Very inconsiderate Of the land
ed peasant, but he proved obstinate.
Unless he would continue to raise
the food a fellow would have to GO
hungry.
So it came about that trading had
to be resumed. Under this it is said
and may be accepted as true. that
profiteering was INDUCED in by some
The government shot some of these
Recently in Moscow 5000 persons
were arrested in q single night and
listed for Punishment. This is be-
lieved to indicate another attempt
on the part of the government to
fix prices. Factory products have
become so high the landed peasants
will not produce food in exchange
and resort to all sorts Of substitutes
in order to, avoid paying the high
prices.
But If the government lowers the
prices of the factory products how
may it compel people to make
those products at the lower prices
1t cannot compel the peasant tt
raise food, for any price the govern.
ment may fix. Is the government te
sell these factory products to the
peasant at prices he is willing to pa,
and tax all Of them to make UP tbs
difference between those prices ans
the costs OF production? And If So
what win the taxed have to say t.
that?
Those In our own country wht
wish to have the government fl,
prices better wait and watch thu
Russians little longer. Incidental,
they might note that the Russian
government h taking steps to pre-
scribe what hours those in the re-
tail trade shall work, as well as what
prices they may charge. 1t isn't con.
eeivable that the American people
would take kindly to so much regula-
ton.

Washington. Dec 26-(AP)-The
American people are showing in
creased ability in the way of keeping

in census bureau figures on the pris-

You ought to be at our house once
And see our dog. he's just Ounce;
The way he chases for his tail
And sometimes spills the WATERFALL.
He knows far more than just one trick
For instance, when you throw stlcB
He brings 1t back so quickly that
You wonder whom you're looking at.
And when you ask him for his paw
He puts it up and starts to claw
Your fingers, with a tilted head.
AS if he knew just what you said.
The way he greets you at the door
Is sure to make you love him more;
For when he hears your footsteps come
he's up and ready, full of fun.
Oh, no! Our dog is not so bad
That we've been sorry that we've had
Him for our little household pet.
He's just the friend for us. you bet.
