RATIONING OF SOAP By Associated Press) BERLIN. Feb. 21. There Is a class f-ystem In Russia more rigid than In what the Bolshevik! call the "capitalistic countries," and it even extends to the manner in which soap Is rationed, says M. Schwartz, the San Francisco Socialist, who recently was released from prison in Moscow and sent with his dying wife to the EsU Ionian border. "Before I went to Russia and saw (lie Soviet government at. close range. I believed J,n;ne and Trolzky were really trying to do, away with , the class system," said M. Schwartz in telling many interesting details of his nojourn in the land of the Soviets, supplementing the statement which lie made immediately upon his arrival here. No Reoard for Rights. "I soon found out in Petrograd and Moscow and other Russian cities and Ullages that the class system under the Bolshevists is more fixed than in capitalistic countries," he went . on. '"This system is administered with titter disregard for human rights and the teachings of raoredn civilization. "Ienine and Trotzky and their associates at the top of the scheme enjoy the greatest luxury. There is plenty of food for the commissars, but the folks further down the scale ore rationed according to their attitude townrd the government. "Even the soap is graded according to the class system. The commissars have good toilet soap. Slightly less desirable soap is given to their immediate subordinates and there are third and fourth grade soaps for those I v away from the Kremlin crowd. The f fellow who gets the fourth grade soap must have a terrible time scrubbing tip with it for it Is about like pumice Etone. Workers are Hoodwinked. "I can't see why laboring people the world over should support another kind of class government in Russia, a iclass government which is ruthless, brutal and unjust to a degree that would overthrow any set of rulers not supported by a gigantic army," said Mr. Schwartz. "My fpllow workers in England and America have been hoodwinked, many of them, by such men as John Red and other communists who didn't know the Russian language." "I found the opposition to the government was universal. Men. women and children of all classes with whom J talked told me of the horror of the Fituation. And bear in mind that these people talked at the peril of their lives. If I had repeated what tbev said to any official of the government they would probably have been f-hot. But their misery is so great they can't refrain from talking to a t-t ranger. Mr. Schwartz was born in Germany, but was taken to Russia by his parents when he was still an infant and grew up in Odessa and Kiev. He attended a Russian university and became an officer in the old army. When about 27 years old h went to America, where he became a 'citizen and hps lived for 27 years. He first worked in America as a stroet railway employe and then became a labor organizer.
