BY SOPHIE HoRNYAK

ny SUPPLE hOmN KAN
The women Of Soviet Russia are
"emancipated," the young genera
ton Is "free." But the price Of
that emancipation" and that
freedom" is to be found in the
hospitals for unprintable diseases.
In the conditions in which the
masses Of Soviet workers are
housed, In the barracks which pro-
vide common shelter to young and
old, men and women, it is newt
able that the most horrible mala-
dies should afflict the workers.
The health Of the high officials
Of the Soviet government is in
striking contrast to that Of the
common people. They have serv-
ants. Their wives 60 to the thea
ter or to the movies. Their child
rem are well fed and well groomed.
These are the "emancipated''
women Of Russia. They live on
the sweat Of millions Of working
women who toll in the mills and
at construction jobs for o piece Of
bread.
But the tragedy Of the common
working woman is her helplessness
under the Soviet code Of marriage.
It sounds wonderful to hear of the
freedom Of divorce in Russia. But
how does it work out for the aver
age woman?
Wed 10 Times in Year
I knew one man, Zakharov, who
had married 10 times in success
sion in one year, going from di-
vorce to remarriage. Each Of the
10 wives bore him child.
Zaharov was a Communist and,
because of the privileges which go
with party membership, he was q
desirable prospect for marriage.
But there was no possibility that
all his divorced wives could re-
ceive enough support from him to
provide for the little ones. They
were all left burdened with chill
dren, and most Of them earn a
living by hard labor.
There is. to be sure, In Moscow
the famous children's village,
which has elected so much ecstacy
from the tourists. Why could not
the workingmen place their chill
dren in such q nursery? I in
Spected this village in the central
park Of rest. '.'
The first dormitory bears a sign
stating that the charge per day
for one child is 2 rubles. The sec
ond building had a daily rate Of 3
rubles and the third building Of
4 rubleS.
How a workingman earning 100
rubleS a month can afford to pay
q minimum of SO rubleS month
for one child is never explained.
The answer is that there are no
proletarian children in the "prole-
tartan" children's village.
Poor ChiIdren Barred
Visitors are told that the in
mates are workers children. Actu-
ally their parents are Communist
leaders and officials earning large
salaries.
Outside of the children's village
and the amusement park in which
it is located are droves Of rag Led,
pitiful homeless children begging
for bread. But the foreign visitors
who are guided through the
grounds and the dormitorieS never
stop to inquire into the parentage
The Washington times., 1936-03-13

and history of the little wretches
in the streets.
Many Of these little ones are
children Of workers who cannot
get inside the parks Of culture" /"
Why? There is an admission
charge in all such parks.
That workers contributed their
labor without compensation to
build these parks Is Of no conse-
quence. Only Communists and
well-paid employees Of the govern
ment can afford to visit these
places with their children.
There are occasions when work
ers are taken to the amusement
parks. This happens when some
distinguished delegation is present.
The workers are then needed
for show purposes. They are
ordered to march and to sing for
the edification Of the foreigners.
Why Life il Cheap
When Stain orders the workers
to "be gay" there is nothing for
them to do but make merry even
though their stomachs may oe
empty, their health undermined,
and their hearts filled with
hatred.
The Soviet government is con-
cerned with the raising Of cattle
and the protection Of wild ami
mails. It trades in hides and furs.
But human skins cannot be
exported. If workers perish, new
reserves of humanity are always
available. That is why nothing
is as cheap in Russia a the life
of a worker.
In 1884 broke down in the
factory where I worked and was
taken to the Baui4lan Hospital in
Moscow. I was placed in a ward
which could never pass under
that name in America.
Each building was so crowded
that the corridors were packed
with patients. I was put in a
filthy bed, on a thin mattress
placed over wooden Stats. The
stencil Of the bedding was such
that I began to cry for help. Yer
min made sleep impossible.
For breakfast I was served a
silver Of black bread and glass Of

The records of the department
attest to his bravery. While ill

A few months later he was again
cited for saving the life of boy

Japanese Beetle
On Governors
Island

NEW YORK. The japanese
beetles have landed on Governors
Island. The insect pests-de-
scribed by the Department Of
Agriculture's japanese Beetle Con-
troll Division at Bloomfield, N. j..
as quite good-looking insects as
insects go"-had the temerity to
float over to the island from the
Jersey shores along the Raritan
Bay area. where they were plenti-
full last year.
Probably thousands of them
were drowned, but some. their
brown wing covers sleek with
moisture, their green thoraceS
glistening and the white tufts of
hair along their abdomenS be,
draggled. crawled out of the bay
on the shores of the island.
The Department Of Agriculture
called that a "flotation" pilgrim
age and said that probably some
other survivors of the beetle
flotillas had been carried by the
tides to points along the Long
Island shore, though so far there
has been no report in the metro

tons except on Governors Island,

MORE MEN QUIT
AUTO STRIKE

Another group Of striking auto
mechanics apparently had called
off their walkout today with the
announcement by w. G. Thayer,
service manager of the Mandell
Chevrolet Company, Good Hope
Road and Thirteenth Street South
east, that Is of the % men were
back on the job.
Thayer said the other seven
workers will return tomorrow. The
Five or six" men hired during the
strike, Thayer said, have been dis
placed.
Union officials said no agree
ment between the International
Association of MachinistS and the
employers had been drawn up as
yet. If the compromise wage of
80 cents an hour for a 44-hour
week is not met, they declared,
picketing will be continued despite
the return of the workers.

Polly Moran
Malone on
Honeymoon

LOS ANGELES, July 80
All was well again today with
Polly Moran, movie comedienne
and her handsome young husband
Martin Malone.
They lolled at ease on the deck
Of Miss Moran'S cabin cruiser, and
forgotten was the wild night OF
July Is, when Malone assertedly
pointed a gun at Polly and yelled
I'm going TO kill yOu!"
Malone was scheduled tC
land in Beverly Hills yesterday
but due to the absence OF Malone'S
attorney, the case was postponed
until August IL.
And meantime, it was disclosed
by Miss Moran's lawyer that the
couple are at sea on a second
honeymoon" Attorney R. B.
Goodcell said:
Life goes on In the same old
way for Polly and Martin. She
decided to forgive and forget,
and he decided to be good. And
what for a while appeared to
have been a tidal wave now
seems to have been but a ripple
on loves pool.
Miss Moran definitely has de-
cided not to divorce her huS-
band, and is hopeful the charges
against him will be dismissed"

CLAIMS
ARE TO BE
DELAYED

Expectations of depositors and
shareholders to file claims against
the insolvent Fidelity Building &
Loan Association failed to mate
rialize today when Gibbs Law
renee, Deputy Comptroller of the
Currency, disclosed that it would
be "at least a week" before proof
of claims could be Countenanced.
The office of the comptroller de-
clared the assertion insolvent and
closed it's doors a week ago last
Saturday. simultaneously, it was
announced that not less than 10
days would be required for Gov
eminent examiners, under Re-
ceiver M. L. Barnett, jr., to put the
books in shape for the filing of
claims.
Basing their action on this an
nouncement, number of de-
positors were reported to have
appeared at the main office and
branches of the association to
make their claims known.
Deputy Comptroller Lawrence
explained that such a mass of
detail remains to be studied that
the additional week was neces-
sary. He added that it was I'm
likely that claims can be filed
at the branch offices of the in
stitution, since all business in
connection with the receivership
would be conducted from the
main office at 610 Thirteenth st.

Va, July 30.-Representatives of
the various charity organizations
of Montgomery and Prince

fax and Arlington counties, Vir-

will meet in the courthouse here
tonight to formulate plans to
combine their annual charity
drives with that of the washing.
ton Community Chest.
One-Way FunL
Realizing that thousands Of
dollars contributed by Maryland
and Virginia residents annually
in Washington never comes back
to the respective communities,
representatives of these localities
have decided to combine their ef-
forts with the District organiza-
ton with the understanding that
all contributions made by sub
urban residents and designated
for their respective locality will
be allocated accordingly.
Latest of the suburban group
to announce their intention to
join with the washington drive
is the Alexandria United Chair
ties, whose affiliation with the
Washington Community Chest
was announced today.
All of the localities will con-
duct their drives simultaneously
with that of the District group,
namely from November IL to "a.
Officials Of the Alexandria
charities estimated that more
than $1,000 annually was donated
by residents of Alexandria, who
! work in Washington, to the Dis
trict Community Chest.
Pointing out that an execu.
tive secretary has been employed
to attend to the suburban con.
tributions. officials of the Com.
munity Chest assured Alexandria
charity officials that every dollar
donated and designated for Alex
andria would be accounted for
and turned over to the Alexandria
authorities.

VISITOR FINDS
u. 5. MONEY IS
CONFUSING

Comfortably quartered at the
Hay-Adams House, surrounded by
mountains Of luggage gaily deco
rated with steamer tags from all
over the globe, Dirk Gaymans,
journalist-farmer from the North
ern Transvaal, South Africa, today
gave his impression of America.
He didn't care for New York,
where he spent three days after
his arrival on the Europa, because
it was noisy. But he thought the
underground railway very re-
markable."
He found our money confusing.
A dime is smaller than a nickel,
yet it buys more; at. first he didn't
know that a dime meant 10 pen
MES, and nobody would enlighten
him. To his repeated How
much?" the answer was invari-
ably "a dime" Which didn't
mean a thing.
Shocked at Police
Our "bobbies" lack the military
air, and he was bit shocked to
observe they wore no coats. In
London and South Africa the
police wear vests and coats and
survive the heat as best they can.
An extraordinary thing about
America, he said, is that as soon
as one sits down to dine the
waiter brings a glass Of ice water.
Asked what they do in England
and South Africa, he retorted:
ASK you what you want, OF
cOurSe!"
WILL VISIT FARM
The tall, blond South African
announced he was going. to see
the Governments modern electric
farm. He owns 1000 acres in the
TranSvaal. The main crops are
tobacco, potatoes and mice.
When asked why he raised mice,
he answered:
ITO eat, of course"
Further questioning revealed
that he was talking about corn,
which he called maize" and pro
nounced mice"
The heat is intense in some
parts of South Africa and it only
rains about once in three years.
They have excellent bioScopes-
movies-and people in the larger
cities import their furniture from
