HE Soviet Union to-day is a most inviting
and comprehensive field of research for the
economics student. A country whose terri-
tory occupies over one seventh of the surface of
the globe is reorganizing its whole economic life
along socialist lines, discarding and repudiating
many of the accepted laws of capitalist economy.
Quite possibly the future historian will regard the
Soviet experiment in planned economics as one
of the most important. events of the twentieth
century. •
A detailed history of Soviet economic develop-
ment might easily reach encyclopedic proportions.
In the present work ~ have tried to show how the
element of planning assumed steadily larger pro-
portions in Soviet life, culminating in the adoption
of the Five-Year Plan of national development,
and how this plan has functioned in operation.
My sources of information have been threefold:

. month for workers a.nd 150 for employees, it is
obvious that a visit to the free market is a luxury
which cannot be repeated very often. The prices
of rationed commodities vary, as a rule, from a
third to a sixth of the free market prices. It
would be difficult, if not impossible, to state pre-
cisely what the Russian consumer is able to ob-
tain under the rationing system, because the
ration allotments vary from time to time and
children and manual workers receive preference
over other classes of the population.
Generally speaking, in Moscow (which is rather
better taken care of than the average provincial.
town by the central supplying agencies, although
prices on its free markets are somewhat higher,
as a rule, than prices on markets in smaller towns.
which are closer to sources of agricultural products)
amounts obtainable on the food b09klets which
are given to all citizens who enjoy political rights
were as follows:
Manual workers obtained two pounds of bread
a day and other consumers one pound. Manual
workers received flOO grams (a little less thaIi half
a pound) of meat a day, as against 100 grams for
other holders of food booklets. 1 The general

. increased by almost 10,000,000 hectares. 1 This
: was due to the sweeping growth registered by the
collective farms, which increased their planted area
•. by 50%, ploughing up an additional 30,000,000
acres.
Favorable weather conditions lent added effec-
tiveness to the increased planted area. The yield
•of grain is estimated to have increased by
·15,000,000 tons; the cotton crop increased by 60%
, and the sugar beet crop by 150%. Inasmuch as
\ these gains were obtained in the" socialized sector" .
of agriculture, it is natural that Communist policy
should foresee the future development of agri-
culture primarily through the extension of this
sector. It is now planned that half the peasant
households shall be collectivized by the end of
'.' 1931; and it is reported that during the months of
September and October, 1930, half a million
peasant families entered collective.farms.
The collective farms, which, given a continuation
of the present policy, seem destined to become the
predominant form in· Russian agriculture during
the next two or three years, may be d!Yjded intQ
t~~~tegories, as regards organization. These
are the commune, the arte_l, and the cooperative

for common tilling of the land. In the commune
all property, with the exception of a few.simple
articles of personal use, is socialized, and the mem-
bers take their meals in common. In the ariel,
which is now regarded as the most suitable form of
organization, in the majority of cases the peasant,
as has been described, retains his home, garden,
small animals, etc., while surrendering his land,
machinery and working animals to common owner-.
ship, and working with his fellows in the or-
ganization under the direction of an elected
management. The cooperative for common tilling
of the land is a simpler form of organization, recom-
mended for regions where, for some reason, the
peasants are unprepared for complete collectivism.
In such cooperatives the members pool their land,
machinery and working cattle at sowing and I
harvest times without, however, renouncing title
to possession, as they must do in the anela. Of
the collectivized peasant h~olds 73 ,Ii% belong
to artels, 18% to cooperatives for common tilling
,of the land, ana_~to communes.' I

HE Five-Year Plan has now run more than
half of its appointed course, if one reckons
according to the new date for the completion
of the plan, - the end of 193~. What have been
the results, the successes and the failures up to
the present time? Answers to this question may
vary widely, depending upon what standards of
. success and what economic measuring rods are
applied. In drawing up a balance sheet of the
Five-Year Plan the writer would be inclined to
list on the credit side, in the following order of
importance, these main favorable items:
(1) The drawing of a quarter of the peasant
.1homesteads into collective farms and the obtaining
. of substantially improved crop yields of grain,
cotton and sugar beets, mainly as a result of the

new trained experts from the working class, more boldly and
consistently promoting leading workers, especially organizers
of competitions, to responsible posts, overcoming in this
connection conservatism, bureaucratism and opportunist
lack of faith in the capacities of the working class.
(4) In order to combat labor turnover in the plants, to
carry out a system of measures guaranteeing the attachment
of the workers to the factories by means of a corresponding
development of proletarian public opinion, the introduction
of pledges of the workers themselves before this public
opinion to work at a given enterprise for a minimum period
and the application of all measures of social persuasion,
including the boycotting of malicious deserters from pro-
duction, and also the establishment of a system of various
forms of rewards and supply, encouraging long periods of
work at the factory.
In view of the lack of harmony between a number of laws,
especially of the regulations about labor exchanges, and the
present economic situation, immediately reexamine these
laws with the idea of abolishing those which obstruct the
struggle with labor deserters. Along with this assure the
intensified drawing into production of the working class
youth, and also of the wives of workers and other wage-
earners. ,.
(5) The organization of the workers'. supply service has
great significance in connection with the execution of the
industrial financial plan.
For the purpose of improving distribution by the co-
operatives, it is necessary to extend those practices which
have justified themselves in application and which guarantee
to the greatest degree the interests of the productive workers
(reserved shops, attachment of worker members of coopera-
tives to stores, merciless struggle with theft in the cooperative

When pooling all the holdings, homesteads (orchards,

members of the artel, and where necessary the size of such
homestead is to be adjusted by a decision of the management
of the artel and confirmed by a general meeting.
S. The area of land of the artel is in no case to be dimin-

SOVIET PLANNED ECONOMIC ORDER
SECTION III
The transition to the system of a unified financial plan in

very great step forward in the strengthening and further
completion of the whole system of planned socialist economic
life of the Soviet Union.
The Unified Financial Plan of the Soviet Union in 1981 is
inseparably connected with the whole economic plan of that

rubles and redistributing for socialist construction two-thirds
of the whole national income, this plan sets vast organizing
and operating problems before all the financial and economic
organizations of the country.
H the successful fulfilment of the financial plan is directly
dependent upon the fulfilment of the qualitative and quan-

the production and building plans of 1981, in their turn,
are guaranteed only in the event of the complete realization
of the program of mobilization and redistribution of resources
which is marked out in the financial plan.

the constituent republics:
