THE FIVE-YEAR PLAN.
THE accounts of the Five-Year Plan, which Russia is in process of realising, are beginning to pro- duce uneasiness throughout Western Countries, and the reason is not far to seek. Russia at present is the most despotically ruled country on the face of the earth. Its system is relentless, cruel and utterly callous. It is wholly indifferent to the welfare of the individual and especially bitter against any class that was above the proletariat be fore the revolution.
Bourgeois children who have been given an elementary education on approved Soviet lines recently wrote a letter to MAXIM GONE pleading with him to support their cause. They are to be denied any further training such as would fit them to enter the privileged ranks of the proletariat and be inscribed as members of the community and thereby entitled to draw rations. They are destined to become wan doring packs getting food where and how they can like the wolves of the forest. No wonder they plead that they should have been suppressed at birth, rather than preserved for such a fate.
