Owing to conflicting stories regard ing Itiifcxlun conditions carried by couriers and brought by travelers, the Vnlted Press asked Quintan to write of Soviet KussUt as he saw It. The three stories he wrote are re leased consecutively beginning April 13. United Press. BY PATRICK QUINLAN. (Written for the United Press.) NEW YORK. Anril IS Imaerlne a New England town meeting, dls- cussing in a straightforward manner its local affairs and voting by a slm-I pie show of hands. That briefly, is about how a soviet in the heart of Russia looks to a foreign observer. Between the New Kngland town meeting and the typical Russian soviet In session there are, of course, several fundamental differences. But these grow out of the Innate char acter of the Russian people and the diversity of their political ideals. I visited the Soviets of Petrograd, Sa mara and Saratov, among others, while In session. Thus I was af forded an object lesson of the opera tion of present system of government In Russia. At the meeting of the Petrograd soviet, to which I was Invited by Zi noviev, president and governor of the Petrograd district, I was startled by the variety of coBtume. Being the second largest soviet in liussia, Mos cow taking the first place, it gave rather the appearance of a huge mass meeting, attended by a nonde-l'" script crowd of sailors from the Kronsadt fleet, soldiers on leave dressed In khaki or brilliant Cossack uniforms, worklngmen In their working clothes and peasants garbed in simple white blouses and shod with picturesque sandals. Many women were present, some fashion ably dressed, sitting next to their peasant Bisters clad In smocks, with varl-colored handkerchiefs, on their beads. On the platform sat the presidium of executive committee, as well as numerous foreign guests and special delegates from outlying dis tricts, some having come from re mote places In Siberia. The dele gates are elected by their local trade unions or guims. as eacn meinour entered the building In Petrograd the sessions take place in the TTrltz- ky palace where formerly the Duma convened he was required to show his credentials to the military police who stand with fixed bayonets at the door. iiib prosraiii lor i.i.b hids, b i hf,ld a moBt , enjoyable and useful the custom, was road by Zlnoviev se88lon at (h home of Mrs cunntng who then proceeded to put. eachham lat fi nusin.8, nlong question as it arose to the delegates. many ifnp9 was vcry Ratlsfnctorily One of the propositions argued with adjusted and future work planned. not a little vehemence was that of compulsory labor. Speakers asked for the floor and then passed down the aisles, addressing the assemblage from the platform. As in the British parliament, the members are fre quently interrupted from the floor and fired all Borts of questions at the speaker. All the delegates, down to the humblest gray-bearded peas ant, displayed remarkable skill In discussion. It was most fantastic to see 'kerchiefed peasant women rise ana interpose a question, Dili an conducted themselves with dignity and decorum, as though they were long accustomed to parliamentary debate. Often where a delegate was too diffident or for some other rea son did not wish to take the floor, he would write his questions or ob jections on a sheet of paper and pass I It up to the speaker. ' I noted that In the Petrocrnd sot- let, as In the others I visited, almost nil shades of political opinion were represented. The Communist faction was counterbalanced by social dunio - crats and social revolutionaries, and here and there was a sprinkling of anarchists. The delegates addressed each other from the platform or the floor as "tnvnrlsh" (comrade). When finally the vote was taken bv a show of hands. I was nstonlshed at the overwhelming majority the measure received. Puzzled, 1 turned to my Interpreter and said: "I didn't whooping rough, and was a very know thev were all in favor nf the 'rail llttlo boy. measure. For a moment I thought I A" '"s done to ward off the An the opposition was verv strong."

This seemed to me to be typical of the workings of the Russian mind n I' encountered It everywhere. The Russian worklngmen and peasant honestly believe in the efficiency of a public exchange of Ideas and are perfectly willing to be convinced If only the question at issue has been I,,1 rnurcn last sunuay. .i . . . . ,1 Mrs. S.

An other Interesting feature was the use of the pointer by the evangelist In the way of an illustration. Ho had the audience guessing the length ot the pointer. There were numerous and divers guesses. The evangelist then made his point that there was one sure way to tell the length of the pointer and that was to put the rule to it. After measuring it, it was then found that no one had guessed cor rect iv. The speaker then showed that people are using too much gurus work about religion, but that If they would put their lives to God's meas uring rule, they could tell exactly what was right. Two special numbers were given, one most touching song by the ouartette and the other a beautiful duet by the singing evan gelists. Tonight the theme will, be "The Sin Against the Holy Spirit, or The I'npardonablo Sin." Great prep arations are being made for the ser-. vice on Friday night.
