Today -100: May 29, 1922: From each according to their means... It’s a cook book!

Can this be true? Supposedly there’s a government exhibit in Moscow with photos (taken by the Cheka) and other evidence of cannibalism in the famine regions. And there’s a notice posted on walls in Moscow: “These people are not cannibals who eat their dead because they are hungry; but those are cannibals who do not give of their surplus to the hungry.” Evidently it’s the Bolshevist press that’s spreading the cannibalism stories. Mothers strangling their children in order to eat them, a new restaurant in Pongstcher in Samara which only serves human, etc.
