WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1929 Soviet Tombstones Now 3 SHAQPEE BANDITS Glorify Workers’ Jobs) |\NDERHEAVY GUARD By ARNOLD DAANE (Who Recently Returned From a Visit to Russia) The white cross no longer :no- nopolizes the honor of marking the resting place of the dead in Russia. The Soviet has decreed a new fashion in tombstones. The cross smacks too strongly of religion to fit in with the anti-re- ligous propaganda that the Soviet government is fostering. The Soviet desires to exalt the occupation rather than the religious affiliation of its dead, and the new design of tomb- stone stresses the economic contribu- In the shadow of the walls of the New Maiden Monastery near Mos- cow, there is a growing group of me- morials that contrast oddly with the solemnity of the crosses that still pre- dominate in the old burial ground. Instead of inscriptions expressing the hope that the dead may rest in peace, the new inscriptions simply state that here les buried an iron worker or # textile worker, leaving the assump- tion that the highest possible tribute is paid by making reference to the job the deceased held. There is a replica of a railway semaphore signal to mark the burial place of a locomotive engineer. There are cannon shells carved out of stone, set on a marble slab beneath which is buried a colonel in the Red army. A} steel tower is mounted on a stone that marks the grave of a structural en gineer. In some cases carvings on the stone depict the ieatures of the dead. Not all new tombstones are of Communistic design, however. New crosses are being placed there to mark the graves of some of the dead. | White caskets as well as red ones are still being carried through the gates; the first followed by a handful of | mourners, the others by banners, by | @ crowd, and perhaps by a band that, plays Commuistic music.
