INFLUENCE OF PRAYER.
COMMUNISTS ANNOYED
("Times” Cables.) London, May 13,..
The Riga correspondent of “The Times” says that-Communist' orgiluisations insist that Moscow confiscate a number of farms conducted by four nuns’ communities in the Central Provinces, which have subsisted on their' own labour since 1918. The Soviet originally granted the farms on credit as model establishments. Communists complain that local Soviets refuse to remove these blots. The nuns pray more than ever. They pray before sowing and after harvest. They pray all the time. Their religious influence on the peasantry is allegedly most harmful. The “Pravda” declares that it is time to give these counter-revolution-ary nests another shaking.
