Described as an attempt to rectify failure of communism, the members of the colony are the declared enemies of the destruction of property, human ot- animal Itfe, and thus are ay rayed against-the soviet goveruiuetttr~ The members of the colony make a religion of manna I labor and declare Its chief tenet to be embodied' In the phrase "Love thy neighbor as thyself." They declare themselves, like Count Tolstoy, "searchers for the truth In all things." They arrived here in early September with a permit from Moscow to occupy a portion of the estate now classed as a national Institution. Tsacher Organizes Movement. ?A teacher, whose brother is director of hie colony, organised the movement. The 18 members, nirof whom profess the practical idealism of Jhe Doukho bors sect, with a mingled belief in Buddhism, were alloted quarters in a once hnudeome but now tumble-down one-story lyiildlng of the estate built. In 1780 for the serfs of prince Volkon sltl, father of Tolstoy's tnother. ? The new arrivals have made the htillding habitable and have started to prepare for the cultivation of the 100 uerea Included In their grant. Food so far has been supplied free by the soviet government, the same as to all visitors to the Tolstoy home. The three women do ?tile cooking. "fhe correspondent came first in con tact with a member of the colony in a rather strange manner. After a long journey, he had been [enrolled as a pilgrim at the Tolstoy home, according to the rules of the in stitution. He was given a bed in th* 1 ground floor room, characterised by a , brick arch, a room occupied by Tolstoy some fifteen years. Just as he wa* 1 dropping off to sleep be was roused I by pleasing chords on the grand plane j located in the room. The playing wa* done by a young man who wore high hoots, a belted jacket and a sheepskir cap. Seeing the correspondent, ht stopped playing and apologised, saying he didn't know th^room was occupied Then he went on to explain who he was and began to ask information about the possibility of walking to In dla, by way of Turkestan. He wanted to stndy philosophy there, he said. Orehard Trass Whitewashed. The 100-acre farm Includes a big or chard. planted by the famous Russian author, and one Of the first acts of the newcomer* was to whitewash all tho drees. Tills operation was preceded by nn animated discussion as,to whether It should he done. The young men care fully delisted this problem. If the trees are not whitewashed the orchard will he mined by Insects, but If the white wash I* applied the Insects will die of starvation und it i* wrong to destroy life. As" the member* of the colony are vegeturlans and fruit Is therefore the prime nrtiele of food to them, ne cessity prevailed -over Ideals and the whitewashing was done. A second probleqi was solved much after the same reasoning. For many yours the manager of the Tolstoy es tate lias' been ITince Obolinsld, wiio ? ?ccupled a building once used by the author.as a peasants' school. Tht newcomers, declaring that tliejiresciice ?if an overseer might?-rsSfrtw their "liberty of action," have decreed that the prince must go, und the Obolinskl family soon must seek food anil shel ter elsewhere.
