From the Far East ¢o the Finnish frontier —~4,000 miles of disputed territory— the spectre of starvation stalks threat- eningly. The Assoclated Press correspondent just arrived here, has observed these conditions in crossing Russia and Si- beria. In Finnish surroundings he is enabled to send an uncensored ac- count of the straits of the Russian people as hurriedly observed while he and a number of refugees made- the first trip of Americans across Russia in the last two years. Everywhere tho cry for food and clothing was heard. It was voiced by the old Russian peasant type at the Chinese frontier. It was heard again through the heart of Russia where the crews of locomotives were ¢lad in ragged garments with sandal-like shoes braided from the bark of trees. As they stoked their engines they begged for black bread from the group of foreign refugees. The appeal for the necessities of living is universal from the people, except from the extra-rationed class of higher military and civil govern- ment authorities.. To Nikolie Lenine, accoring to re- ports is attributed the statement that the Russan people cannot pass through another winter like the last. Lenine himself is said to be suffering from want of food because of his insist- ence upon sharing the plight of the people. Attendant upon this sore plight is an ever increasing spirit of unrest and revolt. A military organization disci- plined to the core, finds a growing ditficulty in carrying out orders. Bol- sheviki soldiers are militarily trained throughout and officered the same us any other regularly organized army. Controlled by the soviet political com- mission they stand prepared at .all times to firmly fix upon the people the new soclal system prescribed in the supreme flats issuing from Mos- cow. At the end of the second year that the Bolsheviki have assumed direction of the proletariat Russia remains in firm grasp of this military regime. The soviet leaders are capitalizing their victories to the utmost. They are instilling into the minds of the people that the Red forces have de- feated the world’s armies seeking to enslave Russia and set up another form of czarist government. They are urging upon them that the tragic sufferings and sacrifices will firmly establish national security and spread the cause of social revolution through- out all lands. In. their efforts to ‘avert a rising tide of counter sentiment the Jeaders have resorted to stringent methods. Siberia, the last great food reserve to be reclaimed to the Mosco#v power, has been stripped of grain and man- ufactured goods captured after the Kolchak debacle. Supplies have been transferred to relieve Moscow even to the point of placing the Siberian population in need. The rich black soll in southern Russia is said this year to have pro- duced less thas half a crop because of drouth. The Don coal basins are producing little, causing a depend- ence upon wood for fuel. Everywhere women, girls and boys are replacing men at all forms of labor. Many factories in the larger industrial centers are idle. The output of the few factories working Is absorbed by the army, leaving nothing, it is declared, to ex- change with the agricultural popu- lation for their products, a basic point in the bolshevik program. Continued requisition of grain and livestock in return for alleged worth- less paper money instead of supplies | is said to have made the agricultural population the greatest potential en- enemy of bolshevism. Greater success seems to have at- tended reorganization of the railroad transportation system, especially in passenger traffic than any other branch o industrial life. The cost of the 4,000 mile trip across Russia is 1,600 rubles. The sum is less than one American dol- lar but also is less than the amount needed at scores of trans-Siberian sta- tions to buy a pound of meat or salt. The brightest spot in the whole picture of bolshevik Russia is repre- sented in attempts everywhere to em- phasize education. made to stabilize reading rooms and schools for both civilians and sol- diers and to care for children dur- ing the food crisis.

MAXINE WEYGAND Warsaw — The French Genaral Weygand, aide to Marshal Foch, has signified his willingness to assume High prices for livestock in- crease the producer’s income. Low prices decrease it and even result in losses. Similarly, high prices for meat increase con- sumer’s expenses. But Swift & Company as a middleman does not benefit by high or low prices. Our income depends not on a high level of prices or a low level, but rather on the margin between the live- stock price and the meat and by-products price. The company’s only concesn, in whether prices should be high or low, is that they should be high enough to satisfy pro- ducers and low enough to please consumers; but over the move- ment of these prices Swift & Company has no control. Swift & Company is compelled by competition to pay high enough prices for livestock to secure an adequate supply. We must sell meat at a price low enough to make it move. We endeavor also, between the two prices, to secure a margin large enough to pay all expenses and yield a fair profit. Our profitfor 1919 averaged less than two cents on each dollar of sales, or 6% per cent on money invested. Swift & Company, U.. S. A. New Britain Local Branch, 29-43 Commercial Street J. R.
