A delicious; economical food There's o Reason" WARSAW, Feb. 25. (By Associ ated Press.) Forty pounds of wheat flour Is being sold at Moscow for olght hundred rubles and sugar Is rifty rubles a pound, with both com modities virtually unobtainable. Starving horses which fall In the streets are stripped of their flesh be fore they are cold. Money Is of little value and jewels and works of art bring little when traded. Thefts In these lines are therefore Infrequent. In order to get food a trader must offer clothes. Women refugees from Moscow wore recently beld up at Smolensk, It Is said, and their cloth ing was stolen, but ihe soldiers dis dained to take a beautiful pearl neck lace, so that Its owner was able to sell tho necklace here. Fuel Is so scarce that woodon houses In tho suburbs have been torn down for fuel. Fine furniture baB also been used for tho same purpose. Stores have been closed by merchants but the Bovlet government has taken over some of the larger places of business, where only Bolshevlkl are served. ' Flower shops and hair dres sers do a fine business, about thirty ot these places being open. Leon Trotzky, the Bolshevik minister of war and marine, who Is fastidious and has a special lady Aanicuriu, Ttror.Izcs then'.. Nikolai Lenlne, the Bolshevik pre mier, who Is considered quite mad by some of his colleagues. Is the only permanent Dolsbevikl left who ap pears to live an austere life. itussla Is beset by all kinds of dis eases, typhus being particularly pre vulaut. Vodka substitutes are being used and have a weakening effect on the people. Kerosene and benzine are report ed to be common drinks. The large number of deaths In Moscow bas led to a decree making the undertaking business a state monopoly. PARIS. Monday, Feb. 24.
