By a scheme for auniform salary for all dancers, compulsory vegetarian diet, and theexclusive use of the balalaika, Mr. Ploffskin was of opinion thata Bolshevist Ballet might be safely organised so as to satisfy theartistic aspirations of the proletariat and counteract the perniciousinfluences of the pseudo-Ethiopian style affected by the idle rich. Examined by Sir Edwin Edgar, O. M. , Mr. Ploffskin admitted that none ofthe famous Russian composers of recent years had associated themselveswith ...the Revolutionary movement, and that the Russian Ballet hadoriginally been an integral part of the Imperial Opera. But he had nodoubt that on a proper proletarian basis it would function with afar more beneficent activity. He pointed out that there was a strongfacial resemblance between TROTSKY and M. PADEREWSKI, and betweenLENIN and BEETHOVEN. In reply to a question from Mr. Moody MacTear, Mr. Ploffskin said that he had been down a coal-mine in Siberia. Sir Mark Holloway, who next occupied the witness's chair, admitted, in reply to the questions of Sir Gladney Jebb, that, since his studentdays, he had seldom been engaged in manual labour on any instrumentfor more than two hours a day.
