THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 23, 1 THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 23, .. . . zky and other leaders of the comn- munist faction of the Petrograd Sov- iet had paved the way. The tottering provisinal government was power- less to save itself. After 24 hours of almost bloodless skirmishing, dur- ing which theaters functioned as us- ual, while street fighting went on in the next block, Kerensky had fled; the rest of the provisional govern- ment were prisoners; the city was completely in the hands of the Soviets, and Nikolai Lenine sat smiling in a1 little room at Sinolny Institute, apply- ing his signature to proclamations he had drawn up long before, announc- ing the Proletarian Revolution in Rus- sia and calling upon the proletarians of the world to unite to asist them., In 1921, when the 'Soviet govern- l ment had swept aside all military op- position, and when Russia was, prac- tically intact in communist hands,! except for Poland, Finland and the Baltic provinces, which broke off and formed independent Republics, Lenine! turned his hands to the task of build- ing up the Russia the revolution shad destroyed. To achieve this construct- -ion. Lenine, with the daring that characterized all of his major plans, began what he call a stragetic re-f treat from communism. A commun- istic Utopia might be possible in years to come, he said, but the ac- tive communism as practised during the period of the civil war had never. been intended as permanent. In the spring of 1922 Lenine's health began to crack under the strain. He became a victim of insom- nia, and later on developed serious nervous and gastric disorders. Al- ways impatient of restraint, he would not obey the commands of his Rus- sian physicians or the advice of his friends, and continued to work. In the autumn of 1922 he suffered a ser- ious attack, and for a long time his life was despaired of. A number of times he was reported dying, but un-. der pressure from his associates he at last consented to take a rest in the country, ' and early in the year 1923 he appeared to be considerably improved. Physically Lenine was short, rather plump, with a thick short neck, broad shoulders, round, red face, high fore- head, broad head, nose slightly up- turned, brownish mustache and a short, stubby beard. He has been de- scribed as looking more like a country grncer than a leader of men. He was characterized by obser- vers as the greatest intellectual force in the Russian Revolution. He spoke German. French and English, and read works on economical problems in all these languages as quickly as they could be received in Moscow. Hav- ing a world vision, and desiring a world-revolution, he tried to keep in touch with the thought and affairs of all countries. Knowts Tax ;Plan WARTHIN RETURNS FROM MEETING IN MONTREAL Dr. A. S.

The forms were on the press at two o'clock and normally the en- tire run would have been printed by 4 o'clock, but a bearing gave way when scarcely a thousand papers had been run.
