BL JUUSBURO TETLBGTVAPH JOIN RED ARMY AS ONLY HOPE Russian Prisoners From Ger many Sec Their Onlp Chance in Ranks Vladivostok. April 17.—X Russian aviator who deserted the Red Guard army in January and flew into the lines of the All-Russian forces has described the conditions then pre vailing in Soviet Russia to a member of ho British Mission here as fol lows : The Soviet authority had national ized all supplies Including warm clothing which was being furnished only to the Red Army. The Bol sheviki were carrying on agitation in all countries as Lenine's only hope for perpetuation of his control and of Bolshevism. Lenlne and Trotzky were not In complete accord. Trot zky wished to restore much of the old military regime, including salut ing and measure of discipline. Many Russian prisoners returning from Germany had joined the Red Army as their only chance to live. The nationalization of women, he said was untrue. Some churches had been converted into theaters. Only the "intelligentzia" went to church. There were no private stores or shops; all were under the control of the Soviets and purchasers had to show cards authorizing them to buy. Army officers had no distinguishing uniform but wore a star on the cap. Officers of the old regime were com pelled to act as instructors in mili tary schools, their work being strict ly watched by "commissars" and their families held as hostages to guarantee satisfactory conduct. Power of the railway "commissars ' was unlimited. Railways were bad ly operated. Employes spent much time holding meetings. There was no coal and little wood. Workmen drink all sorts of substitutes for vodka. Moscow was well lighted but most cities and towns were Inadequately lighted. Bolsheviki never entered villages or towns except in parties because of danger of attack upon them by peasants. They had a very active secret police organization. In Moscow bread cost 100 rubles a pound. Two hundred rubles was an average charge for cab fare. The peasants would only accept i the old issue of currency and would not have Kerensky or Kolchnk bills. Brothers Go Through War Unscratched, Are Killed in the Mines By Associated Press Sliantokin.
