the February Revolution. For some time it was the
only Bolshevik paper in the country but militant
labor papers published in Moscow Ekaterinosav

wing grew in influence, Bolshevik papers appeared.
This extraordinary difficult period for Boil
shevik papers. They prosecuted their work
hampered by vicious campaign of the bourgeois and

had at its disposal excellent typographical facilities.
After the Revolt.
Even after the October Revolution the Soviet papers

of lies and mockery coming from the counerrevolution

also affected the circulation of the press Before NEP

The Rough Road

The council was long. We decided
to adopt measures: to let no one of
the crew ashore, to keep all rifles on
every ship in the officers quarters
only, to watch the wireless that news
of the events in Petrograd might not
reach the lower ranks, to commune
cate with the admiral in code mes
sages only. In concluding, the ad-
miral declared that all attempts at
mutiny on any ship must be sup
pressed by the officers, acting jointly
with the engineers and junior officers,
in the most thorough manner, stop
ping at nothing. If, however, a ship
were to fall into the hands of the
mutineers, it must be sunk at once
by gun fire from the other ships.

When we had all assembled, the adj
miral ordered the doors to be locked
and sank heavily into leather up
holstered chair. Dark puffs under
the eyes gave him an old and tired
appearance. We took chairs about
the long table, understanding that a
secret council was before US.

He looked at the clean sheet Of
writing paper before him and his
shoulders stopped as if under the
weight of their golden gallons with
the black eagles. His neck shortened
and the shoulders hunched up. For a
few minutes in the salon, brightly lit
with electric lights, reigned such
silence as though every man had
ceased breathing. The rosewood
walls black-lacquered grand piano
and nickle door knobs all shone with
a cold glitter.

head and extended his chest, covered
with orders, as If to appear more in

for any emergency. The revolution
airy contagion may reach even the
ships. Then-there is nothing more

years 1866"
The red spectre Of those years
doomed before us as though a dark
curtain had lifted and revealed the
past Details crowded in Of the mu-
tiny at Kronstadt on the "Potemkin"
and Memory of Asov," dirty, bloody
and terrible.
