* I cannot resist quoting the case of a somewhat more political peasant activist in Bihar (India), sentenced to jail for attacking landlords and joining the Communist Party (CPI) thereafter, who was the despair of his comrades in the late 1960s, since he insisted on distributing the money collected for the Party to the peasants, as he had been in the habit of doing in his pre-marxist days.
