Maxim Gorky, Novelist, Vigorous at 68,
Devoting Time To Soviet Propaganda
( By Ahdruu Uenllii
' SOKRKNTO. Italy (A') Maxim
Gorky, Russia's most famous liv
ing writer, Is rounding out his
68th year here on tho Day of
Naples by working from nine to
14 hours a day.
A bullet In his body from nn
attempted sulcldo in IHHH, and his
lunga worn by consumption, bo is
moro vigorous than ho wan 20 or
30 years ago.
This correspondent found him
seated behind his desk in tho li
brary of his villa. lie was wear
ing a blue riannei sniri ouuoneu
at the collar without a tie and
a light brown pull-over sweater.
His hnlr. now iron-gray, was
close-cropped In Prussian fashion
Ilis faco wore a look of perpetual
worry, w.'th heavy linos between
his eyes Ills sandy mustache
drooped far below his mouth.
. Tie was writing tho fourth vol
ume of "Itystnnder," which he
wants to make the monumental
work of his life.
Works Iiomr Hours
Speaking nothing but Russian,
he talked through his son Alexis,
who spoke Italian.
Corky told how ho rises at 7'30
every morning, begins work nt
eight nnd finishes at one, rends
from two to four nnd works from
four to five.
He resumes work at 5:30 nnd
works until eight. Then ho often
works from 0:30 until midnight or
one.
Such Is the man whoso health Is
considered so delicate that ho can
not live in Huxsla's rigorous cli
mate and Is one of the few soviet
citizens permitted to reside abroad.
Half his time Is devoted to hU
novels, the other half to the writ
ing and supervising of soviet prop
Uganda. Ho Is an ardent, b''snc
vlk.
Wants V. i. Recognition
"It Is lime," he said, "for the
Vniled Elates to recognbe Die So-
vlet republic. j
"Doth countries have a great
deal to gain from an exchange of
their experience nnd products.
Russia has need of American In
dustrial and commercial organiz
ers. , America has need of Russian
products.
"This Is my apodal message to
America I wish you would convey."
Twenty-four years Ago he viited
the United Htates. Society, which
nt first Idolized him, treated him
as an outenst when-it wns learned
that t.he woman with whom he was
traveling was not hi wife. ' A year
later he married her.
"I bave no wish to return to the
United Htates," ho said with a half
smllo. i
Mmo. florky lives In Moscow, but
visits, her husband twice a year.
Iniids ItiiKsltin 'Literature'
Ho snld Russian literature after
the revolution Is showing consider
able promise.
"Russian modorn literature," he
said, ".is distinguished from Kurn
pean ' and American because it Is
positive instead of negative tries
to construct instead of to destroy.
"It Is a literature of work, of the
unification of Russia, of her awak
ening literary consciousness, how
t'hat, ltuIn's 57 languages are
fusing and Illiteracy Is waning,
"Russian drama, however, Is
worse, than bofore tho revolution.;
Only good comedies are being pro
duced." Denies 'Persecutions
Oorky replied negatlvoly to the
question whether the decline of
religion In Russia would affect her
literature.
"The outside world," he said,
"has a Wrong Idea about religious
persecutions In Russia. Churches
are ordered turned Into halls or
theaters only when they are no
longer used hy sufficient number
of worshippers. Priests are ar
rested only when they intrigue
against tho government. The peo
ple have- religious freedom."
The famous Runslnn concluded
by saying iRussln did not want nnd
would not seek war. that she wnnt
ed peace to work out her future.

Co-Ops Tor 'J.iUHUrno Farmers
There are l:,(Mtu farm coopera
tives representing approximately
2,nu0,00o of the nation's R.tMio.noo
farmers. The farm board says
that haff of the 2.0ao,oao. pro

The cotton stabilization corpor
ation has been given S15.000.0n0
to hefp maintain prices by remov
ing pressure from the market.
There has been serious world
over-production in wheat and, to
some extent. In cotton. There has
been some leaning toward the
theory that neither the Wheat nor
tho cotton will find nn outlet nnd
In that IiiHlnnce exert as much
pressure on the market as if they
actually were in It.
Acreage Reduction Kxpectod
A third revolutionary,-feature of
the year has been a. concerted
stand, by the White House, the
department of agriculture and the
farm hoard for surplus . acreage
reduction.
On the whole material acreage
reductions In both wheat and cot
ton are expected.
Crop expansion has boon the
highlight of the American agri
cultural program for decades anil
efforts of the department of ag
riculture always have turned to an
increase In yields. .
The new order contemplates the
adjustment of American produc
tion to American dmand in view
of constantly increasing world
production and the narrowing of
export outlets.
