0GPU IS GONE
BUT TERROR
REMAINS
BY GEORGE K1TcH1N

This is the concluding install
ment of "The Prisoner OF the
OGPU." The author, a citizen
of Finland, died shortly after
iDriting the story of his e3-
DeTiences In the SoUtet prison
camps. His death tDdS attributed
TO the tortureS and hGTdShtpS ne
suffered during his four gears tn
ternment.
POSTSCRIPT
Who can tell the full story
Of the Soviet prison and exile
system? Perhaps it will never
be told in its true dimensions.
Who can count the prisoners
graves scattered, often without
any outward sign, from the
borders of Turkestan to the
shores of the Arctic Ocean?
Perhaps the records will never
see the light of day. And as
for the noble human spirits
blasted, as for the souls
damned, the minds broken on
the wheel, the c hildre MS
dreams shattered in captivity,
what pen can at this day do
them justice?
There have been changes since
I left the U. S. S. r. But
nothing has really changed there.
The OGPU has been absorbed by
and made a part Of the commits
sariat of the interior. This has
happened before, in 1921, when
the cheka was renamed the
OGPU. But the terror remains
the same. The same men are
in charge, the same policies are
in force.
The prisons and penal camps
are still there. The human tod'
der is still being poured into
the same inhuman mill. The
treatment has not improved, the
food Is still bad and insufficient
I was one of the Invaluable
workers of the administration
staff" and as such my living
conditions were vastly better than
those of ordinary prisoners. The
privations Of the latter are best
illustrated by statistics from the
records of the penal camp ad
ininistration itself. They showed
q rate of mortality for the year
of 1929-30 Of 20 per cent Of the
total number Of prisoners EN-
ployed at hard labor in the tim
