RUSSIA NOT SO HOT Russia is not so hot, according to the writer of tht book "I Was a Soviet Worker," being the experiences oi Andrew Smith, a communist, who was induced to leave the United States with the idea of making a new home in the land of the Soviets. According to the story, Smith visited Russia with a delegation of workers and the treatment he received was so. wonderful and the stories told him were sn rrlnwino- that after a short stay in the United States he and his vife, Mrs. Maria Smith, decided to leave for Russia to reside there permanently. How great was the- disillusionment is gradually revealed in the course .of the story of their experiences told in a matter of fact manner with all names and dates and certified to by documentary evidence. Mr. Smith had been a member of the Communist party in the United States for some years and had taken a prominent part in union and strike activities. His sympathies were all with Russia and the efforts being made there to build a Socialist state. He found, however, that instead of doing that they were developing a huge bureaucracy in which the bureaucrats fattened .at the expense of the workers. Not only were conditions ten times worse' than in any parC of the United States but worse than they ever were prior to the revolution. The people were.starv jng and they lived under conditions that wo.uld not be tolerated in any civilized country. The worst feature of life in Russia at that time, three years ago, was the terrorism which prevailed everywhere, no person being allowed to express an opinion contrary to that held by the bureau on pain of possible removal or death. It was a common thing for persons to disappear and in those cases no questions were asked. According to this biography the nucleus ofa rebellion w;as formed, the members of the group meeting secretly either in the woods or in the home of .one of their number and taking every possible precaution to avoid suspicion. Following the murder of Kirov, there was a hue and cry against oppositionists and members of the Communist Party were instructed to do their best to .track them down. There was a general campaign of spying and tale bearing. The real conspirators showed themselves among the most eager to run down the offenders and took the opportunity to put the Bureau on the scent of many who had been 'dirty spies and stool pigeons and crooks hanging' around the factories" and had shown themselves most unscrupulous in trying to injure others. If only half of what this book says is true, conditions in Russia are too awful to contemplate. People die off like flies and the rankest injustice and corruption prevails everywhere. There is just a possibility that the book is not true but it reads like truth and the photographs of documents appended seem to bear this out. Also it is in line with other information that has been gradually seeping out from that country, NEW ROYAL HOTEL J.

Personal Experience For many years I have been a teacher in different Indian Schools on the prairie and in British Columbia. I have found the plains people to be intellectually a gener ation or two ahead of the British Columbia Indians while I have found the Eastern Canadian Indians, especially in Ontario, are much farther ahead of the plains people. As a teacher among the plains people I found them courageous, and keen. In sports and all feats requiring manliness they ex celled and were eager to advance.' a sphere higher than their parents. Practically all prairie reserves can boast they now have a graduate nurse or teacher from among their people. I Indians In British Columbia are! not so well organized trlbally and still hold on to customs long since scoffed at by their prairie brothers. Some tribes on the Pacific Coast still cling to parts of the potlatch, especially to the giving of great. leasts and gifts and bestowing hon advancement of education. Fair body. iffln't please all.

The weaklings of the plains people did not exist for they were of no val ue in the battle.
