' To the Editor of The Star: Due perhaps to the variety 'of sub- Jects discussed, it is not surprising that a number of errors appeared in your article published March "17 in regard to my year's sojourn in Russia. I should be glad to correct the statement that “the people in the famine region are subsisting on blnckl bread. a handful of cooked graln, weak soup and sugarless tea.” Those were not my words and the state- ment would be preposterous. What 1 did say was that “last spring I lived on a daily ration of one pound !} of black bread, a spoonful of cooked grain, weak soup and sugarless tea.” People outside of the famine region live on such rations. Duty of Americans to Give. In the famine regions the people live on bread made largely from straw or leaves, and on bark of trees, buds, ete, and die in countless num- bers for Jack of food. The peak of this disaster has not been reached and during the spring, millions will die. Americans should give und give freely. For Americans to give Is not| charity, but merely an attempt at reparation. It must be remembered with shame that the American gov- ernment spent millions of dollars to finance all the counter revolutionary pirates in waging war against the Russian people. Only the exhaustion of the Russian people resulting from the blockade has caused this crop failure to develop into one of the worst catastrophes of history. Even the railroads and bridges over which food must be carried to these starv- ing millions were wrecked by Ameri- .can explosives, When the books are closed it will be found that America will have still a balance on the side of guilt and crime. Soviet Rule Well Supported. In regard to the present Russian government, 1 stated not that there is little chance of its downfall, but that there is no chance whatever of its downfall. I have traveled from Petrograd to the Black sea and have talked iwith people from all parts of Russia, and am convinced that the great mass of the Russian.people are supporting the soviet government. It has survived three years of the most trying warfare waged against it by the | entire capitalist world and has driven every invading army out of Russia. It is at present in complete control of Russia and is maintaining perfect order. Let me say most emphatically that there is more order and safety for the | |citizens and less crime in Moscow and i Petrograd than in any major American city. At present the government is stronger and better organized than at any previous time and is steadily de- veloping greater efficiency in its functions. ‘Want Closer Contact With U. S. I should like to qualify likewise the statement in regard to the atti- tude of Russians toward Americans and America as totally misrepresent- ing the idea which I intended to con- vey. They do not consider “this na- tion the criterion and example” of liberty and freedom, but know that America is a capitalist country whose institutions and conditions they would not wish to establish in Russia. On the other hand. they respect and ad- mire the enterprise and efficiency of Americans and try to learn every- thing they can from Americans in the way of business and industrial ef- Certainly they show the greatest warmth._and good will to- ward us and express the desire for greater contact with us. At present they are very anxious that American enterprise shall enter Russia and help them to develop their mining and in- dustrial resources. . H. W.

BILL BY $63,309,000 850,000,000 Kdded for Highway Amprovement and Provision Made for Air Mail. The Senate late yesterday passed the post office appropriation bill, car- rying $88.309,000 more than as passed by the House. Of the increase, $50.- | 000.000 is for highway improvement. The bill also carries provisions for restoring to. service the New York pneumatic mail tubes and for col tinuilng the New York to San Fra cisco alr mall service. The vote on the tube amendment was 36 to 19 and came after a bitter, attack had been made on the proposition by several democrats. The $50,000,000 was ac- cepted by the Senate without debate and without roll call. A fight, centering around post office appointments, orlginating early in discussion of the bill, resulted just before adjournment of the Senate in the introduction by Senator Harri- son,. democrat, Mississippi, of & reso- lution calling o he President to supply the Senate with the number of executive orders he has issued re- moving post offices from clvil service classification. The resolution went over under the rules. . —By WEBSTER.
