Lenin’s Widow Still Strives to Educate Russians at Age of 60 Soviet Press Showers Her With Praise on Birthday Despite Her Desire for Seclusion. Mosgow, March 28 (®#—The Rus- | gion press recently tribute to Na- diejda Constantinova Krupskaya on | occasion of her 60th birthday. It Nadiejda Krupskaya is known | at all in the United States, it is be- | cause she was the wife of Lenin. In Russia, however, she {8 admired and loved by millions, not only be- cause of her matrimonial alliance with Lenin, but because of the 40 ©0dd years she devoted to the eman- cipation of the Russian masscs and | to the social work following the es- | tablishment of Soviet rule. She today one of the outstanding figures | in the educational movement of | Russia. | N. Krupskaya was born in St. Petersburg in the year 1869, From | childhood up she fostered a dislike for the Czarist regime and by llv‘:i time she had entered the Women's colliege (at that time newly open- ed) in St. Petersburg, she was a| follower of Karl Marx and a mem- ber of the circle of students en- gaged in underground work. | In order to come into closer con- | tact with the working-classes, she took up the teaching profession and under the pret:nce of delivering loctures on geography, fostered | propaganda. For five years she con- | tinued her work and attracted to| the social-democratic circle in St.| Petersburg muny who later became | leaders in the revolution. | Lenin Lands in 1803 | In 1893 Lenin arrived in the cap- | ftal. Their common Interests united { their efforts. He, however, was soon | arrested, but Jue to Krupskaya's | activity the agitation work among | the factory men was carried on as; persistently as before. In 1896 she was arrested and| after threce months solitary confine- | ment was sent for three years to| Siberia. It happened that Lenin, at | that tine, had also been exiled to| Siberia. The two revolutionists did | their best to have their term of imprisonment served in the| kame place, and finally the military officials permitted them to meet on | condition that they marry. dently the comrades had no objec- | We Open Charge Accounts | has been of a mo tion to the proposal, and in 1898 they were registered as husband and wife. At the end of her sentence Krup- skaya went to Munich, where she and Lenin participated in the organ- ization of underground circles throughout Russia. After the 1915 revolution, they returned to St. Petersburg and commenced circu- lating revolutionary papers. The re- action, however, eaused by the fail- ure of the recent uprising, com- pelled them to leave Russia once more. They settled down in Cracow, |it being the ncarest city to Russia, and here they continued their work. Woirked on Army Men While Europe was in the throes of the great war, Lenin and his comrades started their agitation among the soidiers. They called upon them to turn the imperialistic war into a civil war. Krups too, lent her voice to the anti-w cause at the International Women's Conference in 1915, In 1917, sb Lenin were at their posts in Ru and when the October revolution broke out her husband was reco; nized as the spirit of the move- ment. Since the Soviet government ne into power, Krupskaya's work peaceful nature Many of her ideas on education have been put into force. It is s! who is leading the “down with literacy” campaign, and at same time | & a prominent role in the anti-re us movement. Personally sh a modest reserved woman.
