Reds Hardened
By This Time to
Mass Executions
By EUGENE LYONS
United Pres. Staff Correspondent

MOSCOW, April II. UPl--
This country woke w one morn
ing recently to find a brief mat
ter-Of-fact announcement in It's
newspapers about 35 prominent
officials shot by the G. P. U,
(Secret Service) for alleged sab
otage on the "agrarian front"
Thirty-five executives at one
clip is in itself a startling fact
To foreigners here, however, even
more startling was the complete
complacency with which the pub,
lie received the news. 1t caused
scarcely a ripple on the surface OF
everyday affairs here.
WRITERS EXPERIMENT
The writer deliberately expert
mented a bit with the popular
reaction that day. Every Russian
whom he met he asked, casually
"Well, anything exciting today
"No," the answer always came
nothing particular"
"But haven't you seen today
papers?" the writer persisted.
eyes, was there anything eXcit
ing? | didn't notice. -"
"Anything exciting! Thirty-fiVt
officials executed! Why"
ooh, that" was the bored re
action.
Russians have become tragicallS
inScnsitive to mass executions
mass exiles and other official re
prcssive measures. Like people il
war time. they are accustomed tt
the casualty lists.
OTHER PROBLEMS
This Indifference, Of course, j!
in large measure due to the fear
fully hard struggle for existence
which consumes the public's whole
thought. The business of gettin;
passport, a bread card, Of find
ing a pair of trousers, or a skirt
takes up so much time and energy
that little margin remains fo1
wilcr interests.
To an outside observer the pro
cess of increasing insensitivenes'
to events like wholesale execution;
is very evident.
The latest list, 35 agrariar Off
Gals, normally should have ere
ated a tremendou" sensation. Sew
eral of them were persons will
national standing and reputation
men like Fioder Konar, Vice
Commissar, of agriculture ant
Moisay Walt, member of the Col
legium of the same Commissariat
The majority of them were mem
bers of the ruling Communis
I Party. About a dozen of then
were recipients Of various Sovie
orders for distinguished service
to the revolutionary cause.
But the event passed quietl.
and already seems forgotten here

Although thoroughly IN sympa-
thy with the initiation program,
Young expressed the hope that
the administration will be able
to keep initiation controlled" as
it has promised.
"In other times Of initiation,
that has been the trouble" he
said. "inflation increased until
conditions We're no better than
before the initiation began. A
limit should be placed on the eX-
tent to initiation will be used.
There should always be some
method of curbing desires for
further cheapening of the dollar
if business improvement seems to
be slowing down after the first
program has been completed.
Naturally, there will be demands
for further initiation at such a
time, in view of the success of
the initial program. This is the
danger of such a plan"
Young believes that retirement
of bonds with "greenbacks"
would be the best plan. "You
can put bonds in a safety depo-
sit box where they draw inter
est. but you can't put greenbacks
away like that. People who
trade bonds for greenbacks will
buy a home or a farm, or an
automobile, which will increase
business activity by every trans
action"
