By Kuscmio Lyons United Pross Staff Coitoj-poihIpth. MOSCOW, Fob. 1!7. (TP) The Communist Ideal envI-Mom: a m-l-ety without classes, nil humankind working together on lerm.s of equality, . Fop the present, howover. the Soviet population Is carefully di vided, and subdivided into more okisses than the capitalist world oiHuide. On the road toward tin olasslepri society It creator.- find it, necessary tot draw sharp fron tier lines 'between as many differ ent groups in the population as possible. For the Marxist under a bour geois system the rotii;h division of pooplo into capitalists and woi-U-oiw, exploiters and victims, gener ally suffices. Here whore 'Marx-; ism i not merely a philosophy hut' a basis for practical action, people aro split into endless classes and oategorios according to which they are fed. taxed, given work, trusted or terrorized. Suh-itlvlsioiw I-osifiil. iSueh divisiitus are ihon. uglily in line with the logic of CnmmiinlM thought. S I n co the individual counts for nothing, is only a era in of his .'social group or collect ive. the ' multiplication of such groups is .inevitable. . Let us begin with the farmeix. "Where once there wore landlords - and peasants, now we find kulaks (the better-to-do farmers), middle neasants. poor pen und bai- r'aks, or landless farm hands. The j - ihat two classes are of course the) . faVorlles,' ITpnn them the Soviet j j regime bases its plans and its , hope, upon them It lavishes Its ' resources. ! ; The middle peasants avo a h;ir-. rowed and driven lot, poised dnn-gm-nusly between the blessed pom and damned kulaks; Officially ' they are supposed to be reconciled and drawn into the Soviet scheme.!; in. practice, especially if they are obdurate, they are too ofien eon- founder with the hated kulaks. As ; to thaw, they are scarcely better than outlaws and fio-matly doomed to extinction as a cUi.-s by the end of..thii year, a process of ruthless expurgation already well started. City Classes. ,In the cities we are confronted by oven more subtle divisions. The "Ijshentzi.' or disfranchised class, has various categories, but the dif ferences between them are only degrees of outlawry and not worth haggling over. This class Includes the dregs of the former ruling classes ex-aristocrats, ex-mnr-ohnnt princes, priests, etc. and tho leavings of the NVpnien or pri vate traders. Then come the in tellectuals professors, engineers, technicians, artists, actorv. law yers, etc who are constantly un der suspicion with the benefit of doubt usually acain.-t them. But even the sovereign working class has its categories. The eat!. "Workers of the world unite" when used abroad, may apply to nil who tojl for wages. Hero that simple i test does not hold. Deep gulfs! yawn between the real proletari ans, the manual laborers, on one! i side and the office workers on the! other. The former are "rabotchi." that latter "sluzeshchi"; the former j ulono rule, even in theory, since the. dictatorship of the proletariat does not include the office workers. . Furthermore, the manual workers are divided Into those who do the heavy work in basic industries and their brethren engaged In lighter, more skilled truks. These dlntinetions within t h e working class itself are not aca demic. They affect food ration", housing, the chance to obtain clothing, schooling. In all these matters the manual worker re ceives priority. Aside from kulaks, priest and Nepmen, the largest class or malcontents here consists. T believe, of civil service employes, office workers and workers nf the jtmtct Kerry Anita Kerry comes of a decided ly non-theatrical family, but she hits a love lor the stage that, will not be downed. Her first appearance was In th? musical "Three Musketeers," then went to Kugland to be rid of that, as she wan led to be a dramatic actress. Khe returned to these shores to play first in "Climax" and then she made un extraordinary impression as the leading woman in "The Criminal Code." Now she has been elected a mem ber of the casting company of the Theatre Guild. Her first role wan in support of Alfred Lunt and Lynn BOOSTERS GET L A BACKING Medford Chamber of Com-j merce Endorses Plan to Popularize Pacific Route for Tourist. "Tho publicity director or tlio Seattle chamber of oommpree callH I Hie Pacific hinhway 'Tho Main Street of tho I'licit'le Coast." and I that is what il really Is, and it is to tho interest of .Medford to Roe that business In (tood alonB this .Main street','' said .. W. Hayes or Oakland, Calif., uenerul man ager of the Pacific Highway asso ciation, who is in Medford for the purpose of hrluKlnK to new life the now dormant Pacific Highway association and to build il l,l' 10 lie on a par with tho Redwood Kmpire association. Plan Kndnrscd The board of directors of the Medford chamber of commerce at their meeting last week endorsed tho plan as presented. -The thins to do now la to establish the Pacific hiuhway in 1. ho minds of Hie people as the Hires of Queen Elizabeth and tlicK't standard end most desirable 1-....-.. ivnme north and south on the l'a- Karl of Kssex. mind .generally. They are in the working class but not of H, expect ed to yield a loyalty of.iml to any. but given no share in the prole tarian dictatorship. Political JtcasmK. The political reasons for such there artificial and seemingly liiiuitoui- mute north and soutn on tne cilic coast, that travel cannot be diverted from it. This can only be done by tho right sort of pub licity. By the right sort I not only mean very high- class and artistically attractive, but publicity of the whole route and not merely of individual attractions hen- and said Mr. Hayes. One who hits not been neeus- splinioring of the working class touted to view the mutter this way are not far to seek. The revolu- j Keaively ieali7. i that the l'acltie lion needed one powc-fut group t high way is the longest, best and upon which it could rdy Hto erjtj,0 most comfortable to travel in cent and whose loyalty it could ; th,. world today, and Is bordered maintain at The boiling point al ways. The bruin workers of.fered no" such safe reliance. They in cluded large masses closely tied by their tastes and mental habii.s to the bankrupt past.' With its re-; sources limited, the Kremlin con centrated upon one small but basic element in the. population. The proletrian dictatorship believes in quality rather than quantity in its leadership. : ' Yet the process of artificially sundering different portions of the class in whose name tile Soviets govern holds serious dangers' for the experiment In which they are plunged. It is a euriom throw back to the giiil.l ideas of the mid dle ages which seetrvs oiif'of 'place in a society presumably' headed for socialism. Labor Supply I'tiliinlted. " After all ' the supply of manual labor is , almost boundless here, witfi a vast primitive peasant folk tn draw upon. But the supply of e d u ca t e il t ra i n e d w.o r k e rs of the mind is limited. What Inducement U there for an ambitious boy to study when the best things that Soviet life has to offer can be more easily attained by becoming a fou miry man or a bricklayer? . 1 know of Moscow young men per fectly cajiable of obtaining an ed ucation who prefer to hide them selves among the fav I manual workers, the aristocrats of the new era. For centuries the hardest man u a 1 workers were lowest In the strata of society. A hove them were those who worked somewhat lets hard. -'till further up were the pen-pushers and other tollers all along its 1S00 miles with beau ties and marvels of nature Buch as no other tourist automobile route possesses. ; Mil! Sell to Totliihts. "The work which the Pacific Highway association has under taken is to sell to tourists and va cationists the whole highway, a complete trip such us they cannot find equalled anywhere. We are tying up the pulling power of Crater 1-akc. Lassen. .Shasta, Castle Crags, I loud, Columbia river, Uainier, l'uget Sound, Huker. ami Vancouver Island into a single at traction and selling them as a whole. "In Ifl'ir this was successfully done but the people along the Pa cific highway permitted the old organization to pass on. More than. 500,000 booklets were issued and business was good during that period. "There is now a keen desire of all business interests to build this association to n point that It will so popularize this route that no tourist will cross tho continent without including In his itinerary a trip over the Pacific highway. Predicts Travel ; 'T predict n good travel this year especially from southern Califor nia. and it Is up to the business interests along the Pacific high way to get their share and with the Olympiad coming In l'.t32 more than l.oon.ooo tourists are expect ed vesi and we must be so organ ized that we can reach this great tourist crop and bring them to southern Oregon.
