metadata.value: The Resolution “On Religious Associations” and other normative legal acts adopted by the Soviet
  government during the 1930s were aimed at the gradual destruction of religious life. this paper analyzes methods
  of work used by the Soviet state to prevent the spread of religious creeds in the West Siberian Territory,
  which negatively affected the position of the Orthodox clergy. In addition, the attitudes of various segments of the
  population to changes taking place in spiritual life are discussed. During this period, worshipers were subject to
  numerous compulsory fees and were involved in various labor duties. At the same time, the elimination of priests
  as a class was accompanied and complicated by numerous conflicts of priests and parish church councils, as
  well as with local authorities. A serious problem was the desecration of churches and the frequent theft of church
  property, which greatly complicated, and often made impossible, the holding of church services. The increase
  in retail prices in 1931 ravaged the parishioners of many churches and put worshipers in an extremely distressing
  situation. At the same time, the repression of clergy intensified, during which many were arrested and executed.
  The reduced number of clergymen threatened the functioning or even existence of many parishes in Western
  Siberia, and the intensification of persecution of clergy after 1937, along with the active closure of churches, led to
  the disappearance of the Barnaul diocese, with its territories becoming part of the Novosibirsk diocese by 1940.
