Dr Morris Zucker, & Brooklyn Commun- ist, who arrived here this month" af ter having served four months in the Russian jails. Some of his gxperien. ces and observations have previous'y been made public. Zucker 'was senten- ced in New York in 1919 to 60 years imprisonment for sedition but was deported instead. y Speaking of the life of the prison- ers in the principal political prison at Moscow, which is called the "0. O. V."" he said, "'the daily third degree to which prisoners are subjected if they are suspected of a serious poli- tical crime is worse than execution. These prisoners are taken every day, if their captors think there is a chance of wringing a confession from them, into the questioning room. Theres, whether they have anything to confess or not, they are commanded to "reveal the truth.' "The commissar puts a revolver to the prisoner's head 'confess, or I'll shoot," he says, The prisoner waits for the shot. He never. knows whether it is coming or not. 3 "This process is often repeated un- til the prisoner will confess rather which case he is shot anyway." The mental condition of these pri- soners becomes such that they would prefer death, said Dr. Zucker. The Brooklyn Communist says that he met in the various prisons of Mos- cow twenty of the radicals deported from America and that he could well understand why the Bolsheviki ar- rested them for they were chiefly an- archists who did not believe in any government, "particularly in a gov- ernment so distatorial as that main- tained by the Bolsheviki." Zucker said he found in prison also the president of the Turkestan Soviot republic, Mohammed Hadjiz, Gener- al Alex. Gertor, once commander of the Russian South Western front, eight members of the 'executive com- mitteg of the right wing of the Soc- ial Revolutionist Party, three mem- bers of the executive committee of the left wing of that party, including Mayorieff, who was Commissar of Agriculture in 1918, and also a for- mer minister of ecclesiastical affairs, M. Samaun. Zucker described the summoning of prisoners for exécution in mush e San Francisco Communist, who came out of Russia som: months ago, He added that executions were going on as late as March 27th, and declared thete had been no dminution of the "red terror" in Russia. 3 " i» Between China and Germany, But No Advance Is > Made. Berlin, may 18.--(By mait)-- China and Germany re apparently no closer to an ctual restoration jof diplomatic relstions than they were six months igo in spite > the fact that unofficial delegations are at work in both countries rying to per- fect a treaty. Herr von Borch heads the German delegation which is working in Pek- ing and Dr. Chang is shairman of the Chinese delegation which Is liv- ing at the Chinese legation in Berlin. Although China passed a resolu- tion declaring it was at peace with Germany, following the "refusal of the Chinese to sign the Versailles treaty because cf the disposition made of Shantung province, the Chinese government has not abrogat- ed its legislatior forbidding Germans to carry on business in China. Consequently, German firms are unable to conduct business with the Chinese in the n: «f German citi- zens. While the Chinese war legis- lation is not rigidly enforced it still stands on the Chinese statute books, and German trade is not regarded as safe until there is jome written agreement between China and Ger- many which will prevent legal com- plications, . ; It now seems unlikely that China will sign a treaty with Germany until the United States devises some plan of restoring diplomatic relations with Germany. China followed America's lead in breaking off diplomatic reja- than undergo any further ordeals, in TRING T0_ MAKE TREATY tiator without any diplomatic rights or privileges. A --------e et IMPERIAL DEVELOPMENT Accelerated By .the Formation of League of Nations, London, May 3.--(By Mail) --- Writing to the Times, Professor Ber- riedale Keith, Edinburgh University, says the process of development of imperial relations wag' inevitably ac- celerated in an unpredecented man- ner by the formation of the League of Nations, The Dominions were thus compelled "at a 'much earlier date than-had been anticipated to assume 'a status for which they were not fully prepared, a fact which 'Mr. Fielding has emphasized more than once in the Canadian House of Commons. This lack of preparation is evinced most conclusively by the unwiiling- ness of any of the Dominions, even including Australia, to face the bur- den of a just share in the cost of na val defence; years, .it must be ad- mitted, will elapse before the United Kingdom can expect any serious aid in this regard, save possibly frog the commonwealth." General Smuts, des- pite his whole-hearted doctrine of au- tomothy, has admitted his misgivings, as to the part which the union can play as regards to naval defence. Imperial relations, therefore, are now in a transitional state, which may be of considerable duration, and the immediate problem for the im- perial conference (cabinet is a mis- nomer, which merely excites misgiv- Ings in the dominions) meeting in June is to seek to devise some rea- sonably effective- way .of co-ordinat- ing imperial foreign policy. The em- pire at least ought to be united on the issue of reparations, and dominion statesmen must realize that an inter- national status implies that foreign politics must how occupy their ser- fous attention from a broader point of view than mere dominion interests. But the process will be gradual, for it must be one of spontaneous evolu- tion in the public feeling of the dom- inions themselves. jujuisisiuiniaisinin)s)sjuiuia)n 5 BE ---------- 'Strange Bequests, Strange and sometimes pathetic are the requests that deceased peo- ple occasionally leave behind them. Only the other day a farmer was borne to his grave on a farm-cart drawn by his favorite pony, says Answers. ' ; Some. time ago a lady, who was A. brilljant pianist, asked in her will that'she might be buried fu her piano instead bf a coffiv. Another lady was buried at sea, by her wish, and the coffin 'borne thence in : fishing boat by two fishermén who had known her since childhood. In an open fleld not very far from London there is 1 solitary grave of one who was an ardent lover of the surrounding country. This agein, was's woman who did not wish to be buried in the crdwded cemeteries of the oity.
