Double Life of Government May
Hold Key to Puzzle of Russia
By RELMAN MOWN
AP Forlegn Affairs Analyst
The real key to the Russian riddle lies, I believe, In the fact
that the Soviet government forever leads a double life.
Simultaneously, It is pursuing not one, but two foreign policies.
One is a "plain" policy, concerned with security, trade, and all the
Interests that go to form the foreign policy of any nation. The other
Is the foreign policy of the Communist party.
These two are not always either
parallel or compatible. The ob
jectives are by no means the
same. Sometimes, they seem to
oppose each other.
At such times, gorgeous con
tradictions are succeeded by stun
ning paradoxes, ihe Russian line
twists and turns and denies It
self. It changes direction like a
frightened dog on a football field.
Here Is an example:
From the appearance of Hitler
to the outbreak ot war the Soviets
were fiercely opposed to Ger
many. The two governments ful-
minatea against eacn other, lor
years In such terms as "fascist
beasts. "bolshevik, Mongolian
savages- and similar pleasan-
tries. The Nazis hunted down and
ruthlessly destroyed their Com
munlsts; the Reds, by deed and
word, were openly hostile to
everything German.
Yet. in 1939, Russia suddenly
signed a non-aggression treaty
with Germany. Magically, over
night, the two government be
came "friendly."
America Stooge's Upset
Do you remember the amazing
circumlocutions and mental acro
batics performed by the American
Communist leaders In trying to
explain this to the shocked and
bewildered brethren?
What they couldn't say, by way
of explanation, was this:
That, at that momenf Commu
nist Party policy, with Its line
and Its objectives, had been
forced to Rive way to the "plain"
foreign policy, which had. as Its
objective, military security.
ine Kremlin saw a war com
ing. Sooner or later, the German
hordes would be turned on Rus
sia. The Red army wasn't ready,
then.
So, even Nazi Germany repre
sented the deepest and worst and
blackest type of capitalist state
the very type the Communist has
sworn to destroy party policy,
for the time being, bad to he
abandoned. It was a case of plain
necessity.
Then, In 1940. Germany at
tacked Russia, as the Kremlin
had foreseen. Russia suddenly
found herself "allied" with some
other filthy capitalists. But was
she? Not according to Eugene
Varga, a Soviet political expert.
He wrote .
"The fact that the Soviet union
and highly developed capitalist
states were in the same camD
against rascisi aggression meant
that the struggle of the two sys
tems was relaxed and temDO-
rarily stopped. It did not. mean.
of course, that the struggle was
ended.
NEW SHIRT DONNED
In the same wav. Russia al.
legedly distended the Comintern,
the Comintern simply put on a
agency of Communist parties In
other countries. Its objective,
working through those parties,
was to destroy every capitalist
state. So, presumably, during the
time of collaboration, Moscow
called off the dogs.
But In fact, as we now know.

Because of the venomous hat.
red of the orthodox Communist
for the capitalist nations, Lenin
consistently Irowned on any form
of international cooperation. He
was afraid of being out voted in
the democratic processes.
Therefore, he called the league
of Nations a "Devil's Kitchen."
He referred to the svstem of
counting votes as "idiotic."
Yet, in 1922, the Soviet Govern
ment began participating in in
ternational conferences. I i 1945,
It Joined the United Nations.
Why. again, because of nlaln
necessity in terms of ordinary security.

Here's 'Ifs' On
All Deaths in U.S.
During Last Year
WASHINGTON', Oct. 21. HP
If all the deaths In the United
States last year had occurred
in a single locality they would
have wiped out the populations
of:
A state the size of Nebraska,
or
A group of states such as Art.
zona, Idaho and Nevada, or Dela
ware, Rhode Island and Vermont,
or
A great metropolitan district,
such as that of St. Louis or Bal
timore, or
A city bigger than San Fran
cisco or Cleveland.
That, s.ays the Public Health
Service's office of vital statis
tics, gives you an idea how many
people died In the United States
in 1947.
The total was 1,445.370. an In
crease of 49.753 over 1946.
Yet the rate for the vear of
10.1 deaths for each 1.000 of es
mated population was the second
lowest ever recorded. The lowest
rate was 10. In 1946.
More than doubling the death
loss was the estimated population
gain of 3.720,000 enough to pop
ulate, with diaper-clad citizens, a
city the size of Chicago. I
