atihl Yt- mi JAGE 9 Certainly the system as I saw it at -Hrork is by no means free from minor abuses, as well as the intricacies of red tape. But on the whole it does the nec essary work admirably. In Moscow I watched the food distributing agency perform its offices with remarkable ef ficiency. Professor Milutov showed me through the departmental offices and ware houses and outlined the machinery of dis tribution to me. In addition to a central warehouse there .. is a large number of small shops or smaller distributing points throughout the city. At these shops each day I beheld long queues of people waiting in turn for their ration of food. The former aristocrat . stood next to the industrial worker; the former lady, of fashion gossiped familialy with the labor er's wife or children about the quality of the meat or fish doled out that day. ,At the shops, tea is served at stated hours and the government workers are often fed at their desks when work is BUILDING & LOAN ASSOCIATION The second series of stock in the Pine hurst Building & Loan Association was opened on April 2, and subscriptions for stock may be obtained at the office of the Secretary, L. L. Gardiner. . At a Directors ' meeting of the Asso ciation on March 12 all officers were re elected and Mr. Gardiner was appointed to the Board of Directors. Arrange ments have also been made to take care of prepaid stock. Such stock will be sold from any series at one hundred dol lars per share, and the prepaid stock will have equal -rights with all other forms of stock and will be subject to all regula tions and laws governing other forms of stock. A series in which prepaid shares are held shall mature when the value of the installment stock shall have reached a value of one hundred dollars per share, Miss, Marion Zinderstein, National Eunner Up heavy and urgent. The government staffs eat in their hotels or in the Krem lin, if they happen to be employed there. Officials of the government are treated no better in this regard than the work ingmen. Lenine and Trotsky eat at the Kremlin, for example, but they partake of the same food as the remote peasant in the district of Samara. Some specula tion flourished here and there, but this is unavoidable and while the government, on the whole, does not wish to. deal too severely with these offenders, it cannot be said that speculation is widespread. On the other hand, where it is particular ly flagrant the punishment is likely to be heavy and drastic. The law works with the strictest impartiality in these cases, as when sixteen communists were exe cuted in Moscow last summer for profi teering on foodstuffs. If the present form of government survives in Russia, no small part of its continuance, I believe, will be directly due to efficiency and organization of the Supreme Economic Council, which has undertaken, despite the discouraging Wockade, the almost impossible task of rationing 170 million people. and prepaid stock Avill be credited with the profits of the series. All stockhold ers shall share equally in the profits of various series regardless of whether the stock be prepaid or installment. There seems to be considerable interest in the association, some 1300 shares hav ing been sold in the first series issued, and the indications are that the organi zation will be of great help to the per manent residents of Pinehurst -who desire to build homes.
