...have since in your ridiculous, asinine over-criticism you expose nothing but your lack of real knowledge of Soviet conditions. Anyone who reads your "Russias" and "Religions" and "Transports'' and "Miscellanies" for the past few months knows that such things and conditions don't actually exist. They know that although you pretend to be impartial you are really being governed by a moneyed class of pseudo-Fascists. Harknesses and Hearstlings, I'll mention no specific proof of this lousy editorial policy, it's spread throughout your entire publication-from cover to cover...

In general, honest doctors admit that angina pectoris and its causes baffle them, that all they can do is to stand off Death for a while...
These statements are no mere generalities but are based upon actual records and careful study. A few cases will suffice to illustrate the dangerous conditions that exist. There have been numerous instances where appendicitis symptoms have not been recognized by the medical advisers. In one case recently a student complained of a pain in his stomach. The doctors prescribed castor oil (a thing which every Freshman in Hygiene is warned against). That night he was taken to the hospital with appendicitis...
