Maxim
Gorky,
leading
Russian
novelist
and
the
Soviet's
chief
propagandist,
was
personally
a
revolutionist
from
his
earliest
years.
His
tender
years
were

such
bitterness
that
he
revolted
against
the
social

it
stood
In

Russia,
and,
he

he
became

At
an
age
when
most
boys
have
few
greater
cares
than
learning
the
alphabet,
Alexis
became
a
rag-
j
picker.
Later
he
was
an

a

draughtsman,
an
assistant
cook
on
a
Volga

steamer,
a

a

and
a

Sometime
within
this
succession
varied
occupations
he
learned
read
Thereafter
he
digested
every
book
he
could
get
hold
of.
This
indefatigable
reading
and
his
own
kaleidoscopic
experiences
gave
him
the
background
for
his
futuic
books.
At
the
age
of
15
he
went
to
the
university
town
of
Kazaji,
Imagining
that
an
eagerness
to
learn
and
a
willingness
to
study
were
the
sole
qualifications
one
needed
to
enter
the
university.
He
was

The

by
shooting
himself.
The

remained
In

and

(CP)
The
British
Columbia
government
Thursday
proclaimed
a
new
Marketing
Act
which
the
Legislature
passed
in
March.
The
action
follows
the
judgment
of
the
Supreme
Court
of
Canada
in
declaring
the
federal
marketing
law
invalid.
The
effect
of
the
new
measure
will
be
to
permit
marketing
boards
to
get
necessary
control
power
which
they
have
been
drawing
from
federal
legislation.
In
order
to
get
around
the
constitutional
issue,
the
new
provincial
act
gives
these
powers
through
price
fixing
and
licensing
which
are
within
provincial
jurisdiction.
Price
fixing
powers
gven
are
extremely
wide.
