New lodging houses and office buildings have risen in cities and near factories. The new government palace here has reached 14 stories and is still rising. More impressive results spread through the country are the new rail- road in Turkestan, the big hydroelec- tric plant in the Ukraine, the steel and chemical works in Siberia, giant auto- mobile and tractor plants, a metal unit which rivals Pittsburgh, and more numerous smaller undertakings under way in other parts of the vast country. ‘The other side of the picture is how the nation is paying so that all of these may grow. Everything is pared down to a minimum so that the piatiletka may live. It starts with food. ‘The population is divided into seven classes for rationing. The seventh class does not get any ration books. The first three classes are manual workers and their families, the next two brain workers, and the sixth children under could belleve without seeing them.

Other nations either borrow abroad or do not start such stupendous undertak- , but the Soviet Union has con-| tracted no appreciable foreign debts. Every person in the Soviet Union is paying his or her mite every minute of every day, and not until the cash is paid will they again have those things of which they are depn\ ing themselves during the present effort.
