MOSCOW STAGES
BURLESQUE UPON
WORLD RELIGIONS
Attack Upon Heaven Carnival
Mockery of Great Faiths
Deities Burned in Effigy
Religion Called Opiate of the
People Bonfire and Snake
Dance Displace Santa Claus
MOSCOW, Jan. 8. (liy Associated
Press). Tho young communists, ob
serving the Christmas of tho Julian
cniondar yesterday, launched their
widely heralded 'attack upon Heaven''
in a grotesque carnival procession that
whs a mockery of the world's greatest
religions.
:,As the college boys mako merry
atorn football victory, so thousands
of Russian students did a gigantic
shake dance around a great bonfire,
tho kindling of which before one of
the, principal railway stations, brought
tho day of revelry to a close. The
climax of the celebration came when
the young peoplo gleefully tossed Into
the flames straw and paper figures
representing tho doitios of tho Chrirf
tlnn, Moliumnicdan, Jewish anil Hud
dhlst religions.
Tho Kusalun Christmas had been
especially chosen by the young com
munists as the occasion for mockery
of tho ancient Yuletlde story and the
traditions which tliolr organization
halls us "religious myths," hence the
procession that threaded the streets of
Moicour today held few reminders of
the old time Christmas celebrations of
the Ilussinn church. Flaming stars of
red, burleques of-the star of licthlehcm
were borne aloft at tho head of the
parade followod by imsters and bnn
' ners upon which woro daubed cartoons
of the deities and saints.
.' No reminders of the church proces
sions that In the past have marked tlu
advent of (he ChrlstmaB fostival we 'e
in evidence. There was music and
singing galoro, but the songs . were
jeering parodies of the splendid carols
of tho Russian church.
Goblin-like burlesques of the gods or
all peoples alternated with motor
trucks upon which rode students and
young women dressed as caricatures
of religious dignitaries, placards pro
claimed such communist doctrines us
"religion is the opiate of the people,''
and "man made God in man's. Jmago,
not God man In His." ,
One truck carried an infant wearing
a red cap. Ho was placarded as
"young communist."
Lost in their long coats and army
cups, young children from the orphan
ages and institutions tramped through
the snow led by tholr teachers, to
watch tho bonfire which tholr com
munist alders hnd decreed should tukc

FRENCH TO 8EIZE ESSEN
(Continued from page one)
would be taken In late this evening or
tomorrow, dopendlng on the length of
the hearing given tho Germans.
The French plans for Independent
action are bound up in the commis
sion's decision, since Premier Poincare
will not use it in support of the con
templated seizure of guarantees in the
Ruhr, declaring in the chamber of
deputies on Thursday, it is expected,
that tho default entitles France to
take punitive mnnBUros against Ger
many undor the treatx.
It was considered probable that Ro
land V. Hoyden, the Amorican repre
sentative with tho reparations commis
sion, would have something to say on
the question before the final vote.
Mr. Hoyden, it is thought, holds the
opinion that the facts of the case show
that Germany is unable to complete
the remaining twenty per cent of her
deliveries because of shortage at home
und that her punishment, therefore,
should bo tempered to fit the clrcum
stances.
'France is going just far enough in
action in the Ruhr to show Germany
she is in earnest," it was Bald, in offic
ial circles today.
There Is every deslro by France, It
Is stated, to avoid any unnecessary
show of force any Indication that the
French government is disposed to rely
on force alone to reach n satisfactory
agreement with Germany.
Premier Poincare docs not Intend to
mobilize a single soldier in addition to
the regular forces undor arms nor call
out a slnglo additional -railroad man to
affect the operation, it is declared.
Tho silence of the government re
garding lt P'an to seize guarantees
conceals no designs to make a show
of military force. It is affirmed, but Is
only a natural precautiou by the
authorities resimnslble for the success
of so serious an undertaking.
