WEDNESDAY, Jox¥ 2, 1919 earth inti ih hai \ SEL RIN A RE PTA ANB Che Casper Daily Cribune c RUSSIA IS FAR FROM ‘FREE AS SOVIET CLAIMS Proclamations Covering Laws and Conduct Are Numbered by the Million and Violation Means Punishment By FRANK J. TAYLOR | NEW YORK, July 2.—That Rus- | sia under the dictatorship of the un-/| der-dog is not exactly a land of lib-j erty is one of the first discoveries of the foreigner visiting Moscow. The bolsheviks like to call Russia the “free communistic republic.” As a matter of fact, there are no laws, as they are known in other land: But in their place there are several} million manifestos, or proclamations, that have been issued by various soviets, Nobody knows just how many there are, nor has anybody taken the trouble to write them all down. Any soviet can issue manifestos, and all of them are prolific in exercising the privilege. Usually new manifes- tos ane posted up on walls or are published in some paper. If you act contrary to one of these manifestos, and a commissaire catches you—a commissaire is a bol- sheyik official—a tribunal settles your case. The tribunal is made up of three bolsheviks. It bothers not about either laws or manifestos, there being none of the former and too many of the latter. The tribu- nal simply decides what it thinks ought to be done to you, which may be anything from pardon for killing a man, to being shot at sunrise for stealing a loaf of bread, and it is; done—that is bolshevik justice. In soviet Russia, you are entirely) at liberty, according to the bolshe- viks. However, you cannot do any of the following things: You cannot be at large without a permit to live issued by the commis- saires. You need that for the right to breathe. ‘You cannot buy a pair of socks, a shirt, or any kind of clothes or mer- chandise. It is forbidden for stores to sell or people to buy merchandise. They are supposed to wait until it is issued. It is forbidden to leave town, or travel anywhere, except on official] business. Individuals cannot go from one town to another on private business or because they want to travel. ‘ You cannot rent a room or move into a new house, unless the com- missaire assigns you to new quarters. You have to go where he _ says. Hotels do not exist. They are con- fiscated for headquarters” It is forbidden to quit your job, if you do not like it. You are con- sidered an enemy of the government if you strike. The government can mobilize you to any jcb it wishes just as though you were a soldier. _ You cannot have a bank account own a bicycle or automobile, owr fire-anms unless you are a bolshevik. or be the sole proprietor of any- thing of commercial value. Otherwise, you are perfectly free— with a few more exceptions. The bolshevik idea of liberty was impressed upon the United Press cor respondent when he first arrived ir Moscow. He was under guard and was taken first to the police station There, among all the millions of man ifestos, the police commissaire coule not find any which outlined regula tions regarding foreign press corres: pondents who came into soviet land thru the back door—the Lithuaniar front. The police commissaire decided tc “pass the buck” to the foreign office secretary. ‘Why have a foreign of fice if it can’t decide whether for eigners we catch here have any righ to live or not?” he asked. Wnder guard, but otherwise un heralded and unsung—as well as un washed, unshaved, and unclean fron the long train trip—the correspon dent was ushered before the foreigr secretary, whose first act was tc heap a tirade of abuse of all Enten te lands upon the head of the only speciment in captivity at the time. Finally he relented and said, “We’l’ let you stay here a few days. I sup pose the first thing is to get yo out of arrest. Wait here while I sec if it ean be done. Half an hour later an assistant came back and announced with a not« of triumph, “Well, you're free. You're at perfect liberty.” “Thanks, that’s fine, I suppose J can hunt up a room now and clea: up. Can you recommend a hotel.” “No, I can’t,” replied the bolshe vik, “There aren’t any hotels. They're confiseated. I'll take you home with me tonight.” “Can you recommend some one can hire for interpreter? “No, it can’t be done,” said the Russian, “You can’t hire anyone. You'd be a capitalist, if you did.” “Js there,any objection to my tak ing some pictures. I brot a camera.” “You cannot do that, either,” ruled the bolshevik, “It is forbidden for private individual You'd better keep yours under cover or it may be confiscated.” “Guess there isn’t much I can d¢ right now, is there?” “No, except read these pamphlets,” he said, handing over a pile of propa- ganda, “You’ll have to be ee now for a couple of hours, until get thru. I don’t think you’d better wander about alone. You might get /® or ‘be arrested if you have no guide.” But otherwise you have perfect lib- erty in bolshevik Russia.” is to have cameras | was t \d BRINGING UP FATHER 325 TT ex coucy.

FOR ‘Cheaj 505 the Associated Press.) —The house of commons has rejected by a vote of) 317 to 72 a proposal made by the liberal party and endorsed by the labor party for a levy on capital as a means of discharging part of Eng- Jand’s enormous war debt.

He said he would) not even consent to a committee of investigation into the subject, be-| cause its appointment would create fear and insecurity, and “would dis- turb the minds of people to whom we; must look for help in order to bring | the finances of the country back into) order.” A portion of the London press has been dealing at considerable length recently with the question of a capi- tal levy.
