...reduction or control of fat consumption under medical supervision, with reasonable substitution of polyunsaturated for saturated fats, is recommended as a possible means of preventing atherosclerosis and decreasing the risk of heart attacks and strokes...
...Half reluctantly, the American Heart Association finally gave its blessing to the anti-cholesterol crusade. In one taut paragraph, it cautiously sanctioned the painstaking work of researchers such as New York's Dr. Norman Jolliffe and Minneapolis' Dr. Ancel Keys. Their research indicates, in essence, that saturated fats stimulate the body's production of cholesterol, which joins other substances to line and narrow the arteries, make them susceptible to blockages that can starve the heart or brain and cause death. A major part of the evidence comes from Dr. Keys, whose studies of foreign populations, concentration-camp...
...Study of diets in the U.S.," said the A.H.A. report, "indicates that they usually contain large amounts of fat, which account for approximately 40-45% of the calories.

A fat, dissolute, and probably capitalistic robber baron starts the plot rolling by breaking up the festivities, and then deciding that he wants young Lileya as his scullery maid. Serf Stephen runs away to join the "free" (naturally) Cossacks, and Lileya hides in a broken-down water mill...
