THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: MARCH
1919.
RUSSIA STARTS
CAMPAIGN FOR
AID OFWOMEfl
Mme. Radek, Wife of Chief
Bolshevik Agent in Germany,
Prominent in Work; Many
Others Co-operate.
- Warsaw, March 1. (By Associat
ed Press.) The Russian soviet gov
ernment is carrying on a campaign
lo secure the support of women
throughout Russia, according to
refugees from Moscow. Mme. Ra
dek, wife of Karl Radck, the chief
bolshevik age t in Germany, is
prominent in this work and is trying
to attract the attention of women
by having them take positions in the
ministries and colleges. Premier Le
nine is declared to have made this
remark to Mme. Radek:
"If Bolshevism fails, it will be be
cause we could not get the mass of
women interested."
Many intelligent women are re
ported to be co-operating with Le
nine and Trotzky, but they point out
that it will be impossible to win the
support of the women as long as re
ligion is flaunted and as long as di
vorce is made so easy.
Promise Food in Spring.
The soviet propaganda bureau is
putting out notices that with spring
will come food and clothes. They
a No harp on the prospects for peace,
as it is peace, above all, that the
women and peasants want.
Women refugees who have arrived
here rarely Complain of the general
treatment of women under bolshe
vik rule in Pcttograd and Moscow.
According to the refugees and re
ports there has been no general ap
plication of the much advertised
easy divorce and easy marriage regu
lations. The province of Tula made
an attempt to nationalize women,
but nothing came of it. The same
result followed a similar decree is
sued in Moscow.
. 1 lowcver, women have frequently
been subjected to mistreatment, as
illustrated in the town of Briansk.
Troops of the red guard army, when
they arrived there, requisitioned 60
unmarried women and 60 married
women and women of the nobility.
In the provinces of Saratov. Volga
and Vladimir .the Soviets declared
that men and ' women had equal
rights and also that if a person of
either sex was not married they were
obliged to accept the first offer made
publicly through selections made by
consulting names posted at soviet
headquarters. The children of such
marriages, it was decreed, were to
become the property of the state.
Mme. Kollentay Marries.
It was on this theory, it is de
clared, that the childless Mme. Kol
lontay (a prominent bolshevik) mar
ried bebenko at one time the bol
shevik minister of marine. Mme.
Kollontay believed that the children
of the bourgcoise, if educated by
the state, would grow up with bol
shevik ideas. She also devised a
plan to eliminate maternal affection
by ofrcing mothers at children's in
stitutions to nurse indiscriminately
any children there who were not
their own. While she was minister
of education Mme. Kollontay, it is
said, was responsible for a number
of such schemes.
The bolsheviki attempted to
please women by establishing
amusement centers in the cities and
towns, but this was counteracted by
the fact that the bolsheviki closed
the stores and nationalized women's
clothes. The women also held aloof
from bolshevism because of the dif
ficulties the soviet government
threw around housekeeping. The
peasant women were often beaten
by their husbands because of the
lack of food. The wives of the bol
shevik leaders often were openly
against bolshevism owing to the
clothes question. With their new
found wealth the women wish to
make a display and they also had
difficulties in obtaining silks, gloves
and other finery. '
Object to Display.
There has been bitter feeling
about every kind of display, and
;even Premier Lenine. who is obliged
to tse an automobile to go about,
has been criticised.
. Mme. Lillian, the wife of Zinovi
eff, the Petrograd commander, is
one of those who have been dele
gated to win over the mothers to
holshevism. She has been making
a special effort to get food for the
children, but has been having a dif
ficult task, as food has been very
scarce.
During a heavy snowstorm in
Moscow this winter every person
was obliged to do his or tier share
of shoveling snow in the streets.
Miss Isabelle Lutistavsky, the
daughter of Prof. Vincent Lutis
tavsky, of the University of Paris,
refused to obey the order. She told
the bolsheviki that the might ar
rest her. but she would not shovel
snow. She carried her point, but
was later advised to leave, which
she did, coming to Warsaw.
10,000,000 Victory Gardens
For 1919 is National Slogan
Through Arrangement Between the National War Gar
den Commission and The Omaha Bee, Every Read
er of This Paper Can Get Free Garden Book of Instructions.
The United States had 5,285,000
war gardens in 1918. It should have
10,000,000 "victory gardens" in 1919,
for there are more millions of peo
ple than ever to be fed and Uncie
Sam must become the Joseph of the
modern world, says the bulletin
from the National VVar Garden com
mission of Washington. This na
tion has never fallen down on any
task it set out to accomplish. It
must now win the world war for
food, and the home food products
will have a big part in this harvest
of victory. Begin by writing to the
commission for a free, garden book
which will be sent to any render of
this paper. Enclose a two-cent
stamp for postage.
Just because the war is over is no
reason why the gardeners of this
country should think their big job
is done. In reality the enormous
task of feeding the millions of
hungry people released from the
Huns, and the other millions in the
war stricken countries is just now
beginning. The world shortage of
food is appalling. Thus, it is "up to
us," fellow gardeners, to put more
vim than ever into our garden ef
forts in 1919.
Let us grow the staple croJ3 in
la.ger quantities and thus release
more food for foreign shipment.
Perhaps we can grow a few extra
potatoes or beans for one of our
own wounded veterans. When the
boys come home we shall be more
than glad to share with them the
best that the garden produces. So
plan now for a larger garden, use
every foot available and help drive
famine from the world.
When he plants his vegetables
every gardener is anxious to know
how soon he will begin to gather
some of lii s harvest. In this way.
for one thing, he can plan for later
crops to succeed the earfy ones. The
more food there can be raised by
the victory gardeners of the United
States in 1919 the better.
There is, of course, a difference
in the time required to grow dif
ferent varieties of any crop, but the
time given below is the average re
quired for the common varieties
given good care in an ordinary sea
son. Bush beans, 50 to 60 days; Lima
beans, 80 to 90 days; beets, 60 to 70
days; carrots, 70 to 90 days; sweet
corn, 70 for early varieties and 110
days for the late varieties; cucum
