Rostovsteff. formerly pro* fessor of Russian history of the Uni- versity of Petrograd and now pro- fessor of ancient history at the Unl- versity of Wisconsin, declares that Russian professors and lntelectuals are being gradually exterminated by the bolshevikl and that they are at tempting to lectual class. "The aim of 'the bolshevikl Is to make of the ‘bourgeoise,’ or better. ‘intellectual Russia.* a ‘tabula zasa,' a void place, and to fill this place with a new intellectual class educat ed In the bolshevist ideas.” Professor Rostovsteff said. "The reality shows that Instead of • this communistic class, a class of greedy profiteers and demoralized scoundrels is growing up to replace the class which gave to the world Tolstoi. Dostoïevski, Tsdh- ' aikovsky and a great number of oth ers in fields of science, art and lit erature.” Professor Rostovsteff. who came to the university this year from the Col lege of Paris, has been in constant touch with former Intellectual lead ers of his country since he left it af ter the first year of the bolshevist re gime.
