THE KUSKO TIMES*
Bolshevik Government
Failure,, Says Socialist
San EVancisco.^-^Let the Russian
condition alone:, do not help the soviet
government.. If the United* States ex
tends aid to the bolshevik element it
will tarn and fight us aa-soon as it is
strong enough.”
This is the advice of Mi A. Schwartz,
former representative of the socialist
party in Russia, who talked on “Russia
From the Inside” Friday before mem
bers of the Commonwealth Club at
their luncheon in the Palace Hotel.
“The present government is not a
government by the people,” Schwartz
said. “There are less than 500,000
communists of the 125,000,000 of people.
It is a government for the sole benefit
of the interests of Lenin and Trotzky.
They came' into power by a horrible
revolution and they are remainiug in
power through a more terrible ordeal.
‘T lived* in. Russia for 35 years, and I
know conditions there. L came to
America for a period’ o5 yearsr and
when I returned to Russia it was- for
the purpose of.aiding the movement of
the Third Internationale. I have bad
enough. To my question to the com
mon people, ‘What is your govern
ment?’ they responded, ‘It is a govern
ment of robbery;, no free speech, no
free press;, nothing—no- market, no
stores, no hotels;*, the government has
everything in its warehouses, while we
have barelv enough for an existence.’
: “T/?e streets-are in a horrible condi
tion; houses are dilapidated and* foul,,
and the people are down-trodden and
broken-hearted. I met Emma Goldman
at a hotel in Moscow. She said she
would rather live a lifetime in jail in
the United States than, to stay in Rus
sia.”
Schwarts', answered a number of
questions concerning Russian schools,
morals, propaganda, suffrage; rural
conditions aDd marriage. Regarding
marriages, he said: “Contracting par
ties sign their names and are married.
Likewise when they are tired of each
other they sign their names, and ace
separated.
“The soviet government is- a fail
ure,” Schwartz, said, emphatically,
“ami Lenin and Trotzky know iu’r

Unde Sant Finds One
Cause of the EL C. Lu
Washington. — The Administration
has fouudwhat it believes to be one of
the principal causes for the high cost
of living.
A<nd in finding it there is also found
an answer to the question continually
being asked by the farmers: “Why is
it that everything we have to buy still
has the war-time price tag attached,
while everything we- sell is down to
rock bottom in price?”
The answer, according to surveys al
ready made by the department of jus
tice and the department of oommerce,
is found in the four hundred odd asso
ciations organized along, industrial
lines which have not disbanded, since
the war and which are still operating
under “amicable understandings’” and
“gentlemen’s agreements”' regarding
priees-and.se!ling territories.

Says Tobacco Is Least
Harmful of All Vices
London.—Tobacco is the least harm
ful of the four social poisons, tea, cof
fee, tobaeco and alcohol, said Sir James
'Cantlie, the expert surgeon, speaking
here, recently.
"Smoke the same amount of tobacco
each day and the heart will become ac
customed to it. If one smokes less one
day than another he feels the effect as
much as if he had indulged too much.
Three days’abstinence from smoking
free the system from nicotine.” He
condemned the cigarette where in
