Incidentally the report lists the Soviet cooperative Society's trade turnover for 1880 at about l2,00u,- 000 900 rubles, approximately &c., GOO, ,0O0,0 ,000, which was 66 per cent of the years total internal trade. The basic capital of the society in 1880 was l.G00, 0,000.0O0 ruhles over and above 996,0U0,000 rubles which belongs to the workers.
 Tn spite Of its achievements, how ever, the cooperative system has not yet abolished bureaucracy and the spirit of private trade,' the decree asserts, declaring that the Cooper utives must establish such forms of food distribution as will correspond with the general problems Of social istic construction. The class prla- ciplc in distribution must be enforc- cl more vigorously and distribution Of products must help to stimulate and encourage socialistiC forms Of labor.'
 This last means in effect that only those who work and give whole souled cooperation to the communist polICieS will eat.
