the Black Sea provinces to Moscow
today.
The reports related how every

the three villages was exiled by the
Soviet authorities as exemplary
punishment, on charges that they
failed to cooperate with the gov
ernment'S program of increased
agricultural production.
The mass movement across Rus

their loyalty TO the Soviet Union.
May Be PardOned
Those who do may some day be
admitted to membership in the
unions and regain the coveted pro-
letarian status.
The mass deportation was not
mentioned in the Moscow press.
However, newspapers at Rostov, in
the area affected in the south,
played up the drastic move at length
under scare" headlines.
The Cossack villages involved were
Poltavskaya, Medvyedevsky and

these communities was deprived of
his lands and homes, and ordered

They had been born and lived in
the fertile Kuban region on the
Black sea, in the far south of the
Soviet Union, and none was believed

Sub-Arctic north.
Lands Are Divided
Their lands and property were
divided among members of the
Soviet red army, war veterans and
other elements, in payment of loyal
ty to the Soviet cause. These new
or owners, were expected
by Moscow to transform the va
Gated areas into model Soviet dis
tricts.
