“Tell your people how we are suffer- es,

this message from numbers of poor
Russians ringing in my ears when I
arrived here, I was consumed with a
burning desire to fulfil my promise.
But numbers of British extreme Soc-
list by two or three of
their party who have been taken on a
three or four week's tour through
Soviet Russia by the authorities—con-
tend that the Bolsheviks have set a
“theaven on earth.”

Did any of them share the sorrowful
lot of the toilers; as a nonentity in a
factory, office, shop or school? Did they
share their mildewed crust, their slay-
ery and the tormenting uncertainty of
their lives? Did they have heart to

Exchange Bedstead For Wood
In your mind's eye follow me back to
Asiatic Moscow, the Bolshevik head-
quarters, and see what we have seen,
feel what we have felt.
The soft snow is blown into our
faces; on the sides of the pavements
it is shoulder high; the little children
are crying; our limbs are blue and
swollen with the relentless bitter cold
and slow starvation; our very bones
ache; we long for a hot meal, and co-
mpare our lot with Captain Scott's at
the South Pole, Do you see those two
women laboriously dragging home four
logs on a little sleigh? Uphilé too! The
one with the rope round her shoulders
is Mrs. Urch. They have just secretly
exchanged a nickel bedstead with a
peasant for this bit of, wood. Only
Bolsheviks and their officials are allow-
ed to have any!
We pass many deserted shops, their
window-panes pierced with bullet
holes, broken and patched. Is that a
boot shop? Yes, but where is your
ticket? A ticket to buy boots? you ask
amazed. Yes- You can't buy anything
without a ticket. To our house of three
hundred people, living in flats, seven
boot tickets were issued, to buy one
pair of boots a year. We drew lots for
them, and the unlucky ones had to buy
secretly from speculators at huge prices
