ANN LANDERS
Drinking Workers
A Soviet - Problem
(This is the tenth of series
of twelve articles by the author
of America's most popular hu
man relations column.)
MOSCOW Russia talks dry but
it drinks wet. I discussd al
coholism with lawyers, pro.'essors,
doctors, waiters, maids, taxi driv
ers and factory employes. Every
one says it is "no problem." But
it's apparent they're kidding them
selvesor they were trying to kid
me.
"There are no bars or cocktail
lounges in Russia," my inter
preter boasted. And this is true
but the drunks on the street and
in the restaurants are demonstra
tion enough that the Russians who
want liquor are getting plenty to
drink.
While the citizens deny there is
excessive drinking in the Soviet
Union, the government is taking
bold steps to do something about
it. In 1957 a law was passed
limiting each restaurat patron
to 100 grams (about two shots! of
vodka. The ruling does not pre
vent people from going from
restaurant to restaurant, however.
When it was pointed out to a
government official that the 100
gram rule was a farce, he had
this to saj: "'We know it does
not solve, the problem, but the

Swinging Hubbies Create
Problems For 'Weaker1 Sex
Dear Ann: Hooray! I finally
ran across, someone in your column
who has the same problem I have,
prefer Co the wife who complained
because her husband was hitting
her in his sleep. Maybe if I ex
plain the basis for my troubles,
it will help "Back and Blue" under
stand hers.
My husband started poking me
during the night very early in our
marriage. . I, too, had more than
one shiner. At first I used to get
mad and wake him up and ask
what's the big idea. He didn't even
know he had done it. He apolo
gized and felt terrible.
Then I got to the bottom of the
problem. Before we were married
my husband shared a bed with his
brother Leonard. Leonard was
always socking my husband and
kicking him in the back. Leonard
was bigger. SO my husband used
to wait 'until Leonard fell asleep
before he'd clobber him.
Now, after all these years, it's
hard for my husband to get these
old memories out cf his mind.
When he hits me at night he does
not mean anything. He just thinks
he's back -sleeping with Leonard.
Don't Mind.
Dear Don't Mind: Thanks for
your noble effort to help Black
nd Blue understand her prob
lem. When you et tired of buy
in, beefsteak for that eye, why
not toll your husband if he dot
net stop baiting yxi he could
find himself back sleeping with
Leonard. 'I'll bet this will cut

walk, between drinks helps a lot."
A popular gimmick to get around
the gram law is to bring a bottle
of vodka from home to celebrate
a birthday. I saw an unbelievable
number of Russian "birthday
parties.
Vodka is 80 per cent alcohol
and packs a mean wallop. The
government has steadily raised
the price to discourage drinkers
and vodka is now expensive. A
liter (which is a generous quart)
cost $3.10. As the price of vodka
rises the price of wine drops.
Four vodka plants have been
closed in the last 18 months and
the penalty of operating home
stills has been doubled. Anyone
caught making vodka in the bath
tub must spend two years in jail
I learned from a Russian lawyer
that the government was forced to
clamp down on the vodka drinkers
because factory absenteeism due
to hangovers was increasing. He
also pointed out there were too
many "vodka soaked" court cases
involving crimes of passion 'and
family problems.
Moscow has seven sobering up
stations. Russian winters are so
bitter a drunk would freeze to
death in a matter of a few hours
if he were left lying in the street

Knew i a marry rnnce Charming.
Well, five year's ago I married the
only man I ever loved and the only
one she hated.
After our marriage she refused
to see him or even speak his name.
For over a year I tried 'without
success) to get her to accept him.
When she became furious because
he came to pick me up at her
home I could no longer tolerate it,
so I broke with her completely.
For two years we did not se
each other. Then the family doctor
phoned to tell me Mother had had
a heart attack end should not be
left alone. My husband insisted
we take her into our home.
Since she's been with us we have
not had one dinner in peace. She
constantly ridicules my husband,
corrects his Eng'ish. and tells me
how I disappointed her by marry
ing a man beneath my social level.
I'm a nervous wreck and leave the
dinner table in tears almost every
night. What shall I do? Ran p.
