MIXSK. Lithuania, Sept. 19. (Spe
cial Cable.) At the beginning of the
war tbe Czarist government manu
factured some paper money. In 1914
It was turning; out 219.000.000 roubles
a month. In 1315. 223.000.000. Gradu
aily the rouble dropped until the rev
olution. .when it was worth 33 cents
Instead of 6. The- famous "Keren
sxys were Issued under the pro
visional government at the rate of
823,000.000 a month, which brought
the rouble) down to about 18 cents.
Then came the bolshevikl and turned
the printing presses loose. They have
been Issuing paper money at the rate
of 130,000,000 a day-r. 600.000.000
month.
When money is Issued at that rate
there la no longer calculating its
value In any ordinary way. The Rus
aian peasants have simplified the
matter by weighing it. As most of
the money turned out by the bolshe
vik! has been the 20 and 40 rouble
"Kerenskys," printed on light, thin
paper, ft takes an enormous quantity
to make a kilo. I saw half a pound of
"Kerenskya," twenties and forties in
discriminately, in the cabin of a
Ruthenlan peasant In White Russia.
It was too much of a task to count
It. but it seemed to be about 25.000
roubles. The peasant happened to
show it because I was with a Pole he
had known many years, a neighbor
returned now the Polish army occu
pied the territory. The peasant
wanted to know what value it had
under the changed government. Un
der the bolshevikl he regarded it as
worth practically nothing.
Waste Cvrre4 I s,
With money worth nothing to speak
of. It is impossible to calculate la an
ordinary way. which is very useful
for bolshevikl apologists who cover
op the entire waste and ruin by the
grand phrase, "capital has been de
stroyed." But there are other meth
ods of calculation. For instance, in
the Don coal region there is a fac
tory the superintendent of which
furnished me the following figures:
In 1914 the factory had 17.00C
workmen, tbe average pay of whom
was 1 rouble a day. which was also
the price at that time of a poud
(about 40 pounds) of flour.
In 1917, at the moment of revolu
tion, the factory bad 20.000 workmen.
getting 2 roubles a day. A poud of
flour was at this time also worth 2
roubles.
In October. 1917. when the bolshe
vik seised the power, there were still
20.000 workmen, getting now 4 rou
bles a day. A poud of flour was (
roubles.
In March. 1919. when the march of
Deniklne's army released tbe region
from bolshevik control, there were
6000 workmen, getting 30 roubles s
day, and the price of flour was 8f
roubles a poud. .
Salaries Feaaa Iaadeejaate.
In this same region, at Ekaterin
oslav. the local soviet. In its doctrtn
aire way. fixed the existence mini
mum at 67.50 roubles a day: whili
there and to the north, where the cost
of living was even higher, the maxl
mum pay was fixed at 900 roubles a
month, or 30 roubles a day. By
soviet law tha workmen were get
ting half of what they could possibly
live on. The number of workmen had
also been reduced to one-fourth, part
ly because the workmen, finding it
impossible t o live on their wages,
went away to tbe villages, partly be
cause the factory regime under na
tional ownership could not raise the
capacity above that level.
In Petrograd. where the last gen
eration of workmen were raised on
boiahevlst doctrine, there were at tht
moment of revolution 400.000 work
men in the factories. It was they
who forced the revolution. Januarj
1. 1918. nine months later, about 75,
000 had gone back to the villages
By April 1. 1918. over 200.000 had
gone away. Last summer, when I
was living In Petrograd. there were
altogether less than 150,000 workmen
left. This summer at tbe bolshevik
congress at Petrograd the representa
tion indicated still about 150.000
workmen, but there was nothing to
prove the workmen were still thera
Workers Are Leaving.
According to some figures placed
before the French assembly, which
have no way of verifying, except In
a general way. the disappearance of
factory workers Is even more strik
ing. The two biggest Petrograd fac
tories, those of Poutiloff and Nevsky.
employed 52.040 workmen at the mo
ment of revolution. A year and a
half later they employed 4798. This
Is partially accounted for. however
by the proscriptions of the red army
Nationalised factories were favored
In this respect, and yet 17 factories
nationalised last year, which had 45.
553 workmen on their payrolls, had
this year only 18.742. A group of
173 factories, not nationalized, which
employed 112.737 men a year ago, em
ploy only ll.IS today.
And yet, with the factories prac
tically going out of existence as pro
ducers, their expenses have greatly
increased. None of the factories in
Russia are paying their way. The
stste is making up the difference,
turning the printing presses a little
faster to do it. When the lack o
necessities in Russia is considered
and the prices their produce bring it
would appear as if the factories
which had raw material to work on
could more than make ends meet, but
here are a few figures which show
they do not:
In tbe textile industry there were
two big concerns which succeeded in
keeping going at nearly full capacity.
The last figures available are for
the year 191 i. How they are faring
now can best be judged by what they
had to face last year.
Stale Pay a Deficit.
The Kostroma factory, with 9.200..
090 roubles' worth of merchandise in
Its warehouse, paid 17,000.000
The Sava Morozov company paid 45.
000.000 roubles in wages, 65.00ff.00e
for raw materials and produced 82,
000.000 worth of merchandise. The
state paid the 33.000.000 deficit.
Both these companies have been for
many years flourishing concerns
State control bankrupted them, and.
while they were thus going bankrupt,
the workmen were being paid a maxi
mum of 90 roubles a month, by order
of the soviet, a wage on which they
could not live. It is true the supreme
council of national economy could re
port to the eight "all-Russian soviet
that 513 enterprises had been nation
alized of which these are two!
With the value of money gone down
to next to nothing, with a deficit to
pay on every article produced under
nationalised Industry, the bolshevikl
have before them the task of putting
things on a paying basis, which they
have so far shown no ability to do.
These doctrinaires have learned that
even bolshevik books must be made
somehow to balance, but they cannot
be made to balance. The bolshevikl
see at last that the product must at
least be worth the effort and expense,
and. to bring this about without sac
rificing their doctrinaire principle
they have Introduced something
strongly resembling serfdom.

NEGRO IX LONDON" APPEALS TO
AMERICAN CONSCIi.
Inability to Pronounce or Spell
Ships Christened at Mrs. Wilson's
Suggestion Worries Crews.
(Copyright by the New Tork World. Pub
lished br Arrangement.)
LONDON, Oct. 6. (Special Cable.)
Animated by Americanism. Mrs.
Woodrow Wilson suggested that
many vessels built by the American
Shipping Board be christened with
Indian names. In this the memory of
the original Americana would be hon
ored and tne nationality of the ships
established as easily as by Old Glory
floating over them. The suggestion
waa adopted and Mrs. Wilson chose
the names. Now they are causing
some complications.
An American negro, who had been
a seaman aboard an American vessel
for six months, could not give the
name of his ship at thet'nited States
consulate today. He hesitated, stam
mered, scratched his head and finally
said:
To tell you the truth, boss, I ain t
never been able to spell her name.
Is it Cauquomogomoc" laughed
one of the consul-general's .clerks,
who hails from Maine.
It might be, captain. I ain't never
even spelled it," said the sailor, hesitatingly.
Perhaps it is Chemquassabamtl-
cook, or Molechunkemunk or Umsas-

the names of lakes that dot Maine's
fair face. "Or maybe it is Meddy-
bemps or MattawamkegT'
"That's right, cap'n. that's right,
exclaimed the sailor, brightening. "Ah

what they get on the screen is any in

found in a paper filed in the circuit
court Tuesday entitled, "Sigurd Ol

Writers of popular risque scenarios
would find in this legal instrument
a tale of infidelity which should
gladden their hearts. They would
discover as far back as October, 1916,

they would find the young wife of

of Kmil Nelson, whom she Insisted

Tbe authors would be able to pic
ture young Sigurd Olson returning
from the barn, after milking a few
dozen cows, about 7 o'clock in the
morning, earlier than usual, and de
manding his breakfast. When no
wife answered, he could be shown
striding to the room of the petted
ranch hand, and there discover his
wife in negligee, trying to conceal
herself behind a closet door.
"Her associations with other men
were under circumstances which
would cause any ordinary, prudent
person to believe her relations im
proper," says Olson in his complaint.
Coming nearer to the present,' tbe
scenario wizards would picture Olson
on the night of September 30 last
returning to his home in Portland
for a search-light with which to com

had broken down, and would show

Tanlac is the only medicine that has
done me any good at all. and that is
saying a good deal, for I tried about
everything I could hear of during
that time." said S. E. Peppin, a well
known member of the special police
force, and who lives at 225 Willam
ette boulevard, Portland, the other
day.
"Tanlac proved to be just the medi

"and since giving it a fair trial I am
convinced that as a real medicine it
stands head and shoulders above any
thing I have ever seen. I bad a bad

seemed that the more medicine and
