BL EUGENE LYONS t nlted Pre* Staff Correspondent MOSCOW, Feb. 10.—Stricter supervision of the Russian peasantry ] than ever attempted, since the abo- i lition of feudalism. is being instituted here by the Kremlin through the creation of so-called -political sections” on every state farm and every tractor station in the whole country. About 7,000 strategic points thereby will be formed, under the direct control of the central authorities, and the Communist party in Moscow, to enforce the official policies, j destroy "hostile class elements’’ on the collective farms, and propagate : the views of the ruling minority. Covers Whole Nation The political sections will cover the whole agricultural area of the Soviet Union with an iron network of surveillance and direction not responsive to local sentiment. Heretofore Moscow depended in the village upon local Communists who, since they were dealing with their immediate nighbors, too often collaborated with them to fool the government. The political sections, on the contrary, will be manned by Communists responsible directly to higher organs of the party and the commissiariat of agriculture. They will be armed, moreover, with extraordinary powers of investigation and punishment—not unlike the powers exercised by the C. P. U. in the cities. Surreptitious enemies of the soviet regime in the agrarian regions, and malcontents generally, will have slight chance of escaping detection by this new apparatus established to teach, reconcile and. if necessary, destroy them.

Must Pay Their Way The sensational enlargement of Moscow’s dictatorial control to cover every peasant household, whether collectivized or not. is dictated by serious difficulties in the domain of agriculture. The vast socialized sector of framing—some 200.000 collective farms and 5.000 state farms, together representing 80 per cent of farm production—is not vet profitable, as Stalin admitted. The losses are being paid for by the country in a depressed standard of living, as Stalin did not admit. To make them pay their way as quickly as possible is the chief talk of the Sovieet regime at this juncture. It must have food for the army of soldiers and the army of workers. Neither of these armies will retain its effectiveness unless the agrarian foundation is strengthened. Rigid Control Necessary The rigid control of fanning regions, therefore was, an unavoidable necessity, as part of the regime of sharpened revolutionary vigilance just decided upon by the Soviet leaders. In the past year or two the Soviet peasants have met the government’s policies with tactics of nonco-opera-tion similar to those employed in India against the British government. - Being unable to stand up for what

many of them consider their rights, they just "lay down” instead. They planted slowly and badly, they negelected the crops, and harvested apathetically. About 7,000 points will soon exist, however, whence everything possible—from propaganda, to prisons—will be done to overcome this non-co-operation. Ring-leaders will be shipped out, faithful workers will be rewarded, and a.campaign of education will be conducted to win the peasant masses to the Kremlin's viewpoints. During the Civil war period, the newly-established Soviet government was obliged to use services of Tsarist generals and other officers whom it did not trust. To meet the situation, it placed a "political commission” side by side with every military commissar. This method of dual direction later was applied successfully. In the Chinese revolution by Michael Borodin, General Galen and other Soviet advisers. The chain of “political sectors” in the villages really is an adaptation of the same idea. Side by side with the technical leaders of state farms and tractor stations, Moscow now will have “Political commissars” on whose loyalty it can depend. Through these centers, in turn, it will have an eye on every peasant in the land. Those who do net toe the mark will be given short sbr.'ft.

The less the layman fools with mental phenomena, that even psychologists do not know much about, the better. 3. Many women ask this question.

DIRTY FLUES CAUSE OF MOST FIRES. SAYS CHIEF Recommends Method of Cleaning to Prevent Cold-Weather Blaze. Keeping flues clean is the best means of preventing fires in eoid weather. Harry E. VosheU. fire chief, declared Thursday. Recent cold-weather alarms were roof fires caused by overheated and dirty flues. Voshell said. Most effective way of cleaning flues, Voshell said, is to burn out the soot when the roof has been dampened by rain. Holes in flues are another source of fires during cold waves, he said. The holes are caused by the action of a chemical created by the soot.
