The bourgeoisie makes war. the working class makes pease. The fas- cist bourgeoisie makes for ignorant exploited masses; the Soviet form of life brings mass freedom and mass education. Some Figures = EXORE the war, in the days of the Czar, Russia was an agrarian coun- try. Such lands inevitably become colonies of the industrial lands. ‘Phe Ruc~'.n masses lived at the level of India. "nt under the Soviets a machine industry has heen built, and millions of peasants are wearing shoes for the first time, reading books and newspapers, traveling in trains, becoming scientists and artists. ‘The Soviet Union, only 16 years ago an agrarian land, now occupies the following position in world economy: First place in building combines. ‘. First place in agricultural machinery. First place in tractor building. First place in Europe, second in the world, for general machine build- ing, ditto for production of cast iron. Third place in electrical energy. Fourth place in production of coal and in chemistry. First place in Europe, second in world, for production of oil, etc., etc, vt . . . The Collective Farmer S wpehpedeteaa tan: has been collectivized. We are too near to our own day to realize that this is probably the most important event in our life- time; what historians will find of most interest. + Farming has been carried on by the same archaic method, except for afew mechanical inventions, since the dawn of the world. It was based ‘on the private family household, a war of each against all. It developed all the darkest traits of human nature, greed, suspicion, provincialism and superstition. The little farm and the peasant who sweated on it have been the stronghold of all reaction. Destined to pauperism, the peasant was infected with the bourgeois and individualist viewpoint, and could _.Hi9t be moved. He held back all progress, and in Russia, until lately, had ‘been the last hope of the white guards, the Mensheviks and czarists. But now the dark peasant is finished as a historic force. The col- lective farmer has taken his place, an educated worker with a social viewpoint. * * . /W often have the soulful bourgeoisie trembled over the fate of in- dividualism in the Soviet Union? Persons like the greasy Will Durant ve accused the Soviet Union of a mental regimentation of the masses. 2 But when one realizes that Russia had more than 80 per cent illiteracy among its population, and that now illiteracy is wiped out, one knows that millions of new individuals have been emancipated from ignorance and ‘slavery. * Women have been freed in the Soviet Union. They may work at any - task as a man, with equal pay; one finds them running locomotives, of- _ ficering steamships, making steel or managing factories. In fascist lands women are being robbed of all their hard-won freedom, including the _-Wate, and being thrust back into the slavery Hitler has named for them— :-Church, Children and Kitchen. ° There is no race prejudice in the Soviet Union, a land where news- ~papers today are published in 41 languages. The Jews, the Tartars and ‘other nationalities were treated under the czar as the Negro people are ‘treated in the United States. Today, under the Soviets, each nationality ‘has its own autonomous republic and its own culture, which, according to _ Stalin’s formula, is “national in form, and proletarian in content.” “Before the revolution there was not a single research institute in _ the Ukraine, now there are 1,058.” «For children there are 88 special theatres, 28 marionette theatres, 64art schools; all fruit of the revolution, This is besides the 256 theatres for adults, among which are 11 opera houses, 15 musical comedy halls, and 218 dramatic theatres. Books go into first editions of millions, seri- ous works and belles lettres. Forty million copies of newspapers are read every day. It is all a great renaissance—everyone studies eagerly, a world is being born. And this is our own world, and this is the world millions of belay everywhere will die for if the armies of death and fascism move Hail, Socialist fatherland, hail, the Soviet Union! You are the living proof that Man can be transformed; that the great masses of the world contain within them all the necessary material for a free and beautiful world. All that is needed to “change human nature” is to create a new environment, where wealth belongs to all, and land and factories have been socialized, as in the Soviet Union!

OLGIN | “QIX million children in this coun- try are in want and hunger,” says Frances Perk! Secretary of Labor of the United States. “All our children are well taken | care of,” declares Comrade Bubnov, People’s Commissar of Education of the Union of Socialist Soviet Re- publics, “Hundreds of thousands of our children cannot go to school because of hunger,” says Federal Relief Ad- ministrator Hopkin: “We are beginning this school year | on a better economic foundation and | with greater confidence,” says the So- viet government in its official paper, “Tavestia.” Institutions of learning are being closed in the United States in con- sequence of the “depression,” which is really the greatest crisis in the his- tory of the country; research work is being curtailed; science and inven- tion are lagging; intellectual workers are locking in vain for an opportu- nity to use their special knowledge; creativeness in the field of art and science is ebbing—this is the cultural landscape of the richest country of the capitalist world, * * * (ZW schools opened every day; new institutions of learning established even in the most faraway corners of the country; new hundreds of thou- sands of workers and collective farm- Soviet Russia Today By JULES KARSTEIN A few weeks ago Senator Reynolds of South Carolina returned to this country from the Soviet Union howl- ing. Standing in the port of Lenin- grad he had seen 152 ships (he count-. ed them) unloading cargoes. Not one of them flew the American flag. The Soviet Union was buying and what's more was paying promptly and in_full In the sunny South from which the Senator hails the impoverished. farmers are told to “plough under” their crops. Granaries and_.ware- houses are bursting with goods but millions ure starving and impover- ished. So this little pig went to market. The Soviet Union celebrates the sixteenth anniversary. of its prole- tarian ‘révoldtion “Nov.” 7." Sixteen stirring years in which.it rose from a backward semi-feudal country to @ leading industrial nation. In this short span it has abolished unem- ployment, wiped out. illiteracy and established a system giving economic security to the whole working popu- lation. More crops mean more bread in the Soviet Union, not less. “But the Soviet Union is-a dictatorship.” Of course it is. A Dictatorship of the Proletariat. “Are all . dictatorships alike?” In what way does the work- ers’ dictatorship of the Soviet Union differ from the dictatorships of cap- italism: Fascism and Democracy? “Soviet Russia Today” for Novem- ber contains the answer to these timely and important questions. Writing on “Dictatorships and Dem- ocracy,’ Mary van Kleeck, head of industrial research’ of the Russell Sage Foundation, examines the back- ground and prevailing conditions of Fascism, Democracy, and the Dicta- torship of the Proletariat. Only in the Soviet Union, says Miss van Kleeck, is true democracy achieved. “How the Soviet Government Works,” by Herbert Goldfrank, act- ing national secretary of the Friends of the Soviet Union, gives a detailed description of the Soviet govern- mental apparatus. This article is further clarified by a chart showing exactly what the structure of the apparatus is. “Soviet Russia Today” this month is a special anniversary issue. Branches of the F.S.U., International Workers Order, individuals and prom- inent writers and critics send greet- ings through the magazine to the workers’ republic on its sixteenth an- niversary. The central slogan for the second Five-Year Plan is “Toward a Class- less Society.” Rallying behind this slogan the Soviet Union is making rapid strides on its march to Social- ism. Reporting on the accomplish- ments of the first year of the Second Five-Year Plan, Liston Oak, editor of “Soviet Russia Today,” shows how the planned economy of the Soviet. Union is resulting in a steady in- crease in the standard of living of the Soviet Union. Notes on the coming national con- vention of the Friends of the Soviet Union, to which Maxim Gorky has been invited as honorary guest, to be held Jan, 26, 27 and 28, are in this issue, and a demand for imme- diate, unconditional recognition, The November issue should be read by all who want a clearer picture of what is taking place in the USSR. JIM MARTIN S Tim SITs IN HIS CELL, VICTIO OF A FRAME | backward and impoverished country ers trained to be teachers, engineers, scientists, artists, leaders in the fleld of culture; an immense research work expanding in every realm of science; a tremendous upsurge of creative ac- tivity not only among the highly educated, but among the rank and file workers and peasants; a genuine interest in cultural problems, a burn- ing thirst for knowledge, a mass ab- sorption of cultural values hitherto unknown the world over—this is the cultural picture of the formerly of Russia, now flourishing and mak- ing rapid strides forward under the | workers’ rule. Hardly 8,000,000 pupils in primary and secondary schools in 1914-15; nearly 26,000,000 pupils in the pri- mary and secondary schools in 1933- 34, Hardly 100,000 students in all the higher institutions of learning in 1914-15; about 500,000 in the higher institutions of learning in 1933; be- Sides 115,000 students in the Com- munist Party schools and Communist Universities; 435,000 in workers’ fac- ulties (where students prepare them- selves for the university), Prior to the revolution there were only about 150,000 students in the technical high schools (technicums) ; today the num- ber of students in the technicums is over 900,000. Prior to the revolution, the factory apprentice school did not exist at all; today such schools are to be found in connection with every factory and mine; the pupils of these schools are trained both in general subjects and in a special trade. In 1927-28 the number of students in such apprentice schools was 243,000; this year their number is 1,500,000, * * * «ALL Jand, all factories and plants have now been given over to the workers and peasants,” said Lenin in 1918, at the first all-Russian Con- gress of Popular Education. “The workers have been called not only to stand at the bench, or to follow the plow, but also to manage the estates and the instruments of production, the factories and plants. This striv- ing for knowledge, which has now awakened among the workers is therefore most natural. The workers are reaching out for-science, for the school, and it is our task to give them this science and school.” It was difficult, however, to satisfy the knowledge-hunger of the Soviet masses in the first years when the means of production were little de- veloped. Only the Five-Year Plan, with its tremendous increase in in- dustrial and agricultural production, made possible that upswing of edu- cational and cultural activities which put the U.S.S.R. far ahead of all the other countries. The increased out- put of iron and steel, cement and bricks made the construction of schoolhouses on a vast scale possible. ‘The development of metallurgy made it possible to equip the schools with apparatus, instruments and models. ‘The expansion of the paper industry made possible the publication of mil- | For the fall’ of |~ Tions of téxt-books: 1933, in. the Russian Socialist Fed- erated Soviet Republic alone (the R.SF.S.R. is the greatest of all the federated Soviet Republics), 45,000,000. text-books* were placed this fall in the hands of the puptis: There are nearly. 33,000 reading’ rooms*in the villages of the Soviet Union; there are about 300,000 Red” Corners (reading and study rooms) in factories, mires and offices. There are 945 million books in the libraries of the U.S.S.R. There are over 2,000 scientific re- search institutes with 30,000 scientific workers. The change brought about in the cultural field is even greater than the change in all the other fields. ERS “alone’do fot tell the whole story, however. It is the character of the study, the composi- tion of the student body and the aim | of the entire educational system that distinguishes the proietarian land from even the most advanced capi- talist countries. Most of the students a and in present day ca ries belong to the bo geoisie; nearly all the students of the Soviet Union are workers or mem- bers of collective farms. Science and education in the cap- italist countries ar developed to strengthen capita expicitation and | erpetuate the alist system; the great masses of the population are given only as mettering of edu- tion, only as much as would enable them to be efficient factory he farm hands or white collar slaves. the Soviet Union science and educa- tion are developed for the purpose of making the workers and collective farmers equipped for the building of Socialism, for the completion of a classless society.

It has not only put 7,000,000 children in the pre-school institutions and given a seat in al school to every child of school age, | but it is engaged in spreading edu- cation and culture among scores of millions of adults. Nearly 60,000,000 of the population of the Soviet Union | are studying in one way or another. Technical courses for adult workers, | technical courses for collective farm- | ers, study circles in workers’ clubs, circles for the liquidation of illiter- acy, training courses for all kinds of occupations, art circles, athletic groups, workers’ tourist groups—the country is covered with a thick net- work of such institutions. In Czarist times 70 per cent of the population was illiterate; as late as in 1928-29, 47 per cent of the population of the US.SR. was illiterate. Today, with the completion of thé first Five-Year Plan, illiteracy has nearly been wiped eut, not only in the highly developed centers but also in the outlying dis- tricts where the local culture of minority nationalities is being rap- idlv developed. In 1930 there were published in the U,S,S.R. 1,871,000,000 books and magazines and 6,775 news- papers. with an annual output of 6,500,000,000 copies, In 1925 Comrade Stalin said: “The introduction of universal compulsory elementary education throughout the country, throughout the Union, will be the greatest reform. Its fulfillment will be the greatest victory not only on the cultural but also on the po- litical” and economic fronts. This reform should serve as the basis for @ tremendous rise of our country.” This task has now been fulfilled. | The greatest reform has been carried cut. With the completion of the first Five-Year Plan and the first year of the second Five-Year Plan the | country has been placed on an edu- | cational and cultural basis which will | facilitate its further growth. The Soviet Union is the only coun- ative | try where education, culture, science | “ and art are developed for the masses | and by the masses in the interests of a better life under a Socialist system. | TUNING IN TONIGHT’S PROGRAMS WEAF—660 Ke 7:00 P.M.—Mountaineers Music ‘1:15—Football Scores 7:20—-Davis Orch. ircus Days—Sketch 45—Jack and Loretta Clemens, Songs 8:00—Cottingham’s Last Banshee — Irish Fant tasy 8;30—Antobal Orch.; Antonia and Daniel, Songs 9:00-Jack Pearl, Comedian; Goodman Orch.; Demarca Sisters, Songs; Robert Simmons, Tenor; Leaders Trio 0" %:80—Yacht Club Boys; Vivian Ruth, Songs, Reisman Orch, 10:00—Roite Meh About Town Trio; Oreh.
