Star and Chicago Dally News, Copyright, 1922, PETROGRAD, Russla, July 22.—Rus- sian men of science are being intel || lectually starved. They cannot obtan foreign books because they are un- able either to send their own publica- tions In exchange or to send any money except soviet currency, which Qealers in foreign countries will not accept. “While during the past few Years the food situation has been equally difficult for all the population in Rus- sia.” sald Prof. W. -Grossman, manager of ‘an_all-Russian ‘scientific bureau, to me today, “the highly educated part of the population has suffered doubly. Besides being starved physically these people have also been starved mentally and spiritually. Book Hunger Grows. “The craving now is for books, books books.

To obtain on requires frequently veral days of work. Grossman urges American bodies to request the Mos- v government to permit the send- in of foreign scientific publica- tions in exchange for the Russlan publications without the formalities now required.
