SAVINGS GROW IN HOLC INVESTMENT Russia as it Is Today Uncensored Revelations in Stalin's Blood Purge By WEBB MILLER United Press stolf Correspondent (Copyright, 1937, by 1'nltrd Presi MOSCOW, vis London (uncensored), Aug. 31. (OT) (HFR) "Our party Is suffering from an attack of measles." Joseph Stalin said grimly 10 years ago. That was In the midst Trotsky. It might be said today that thei Communist party la suffering from an attack of scarlet fever a more serious disease, but ono which shows no signs of being fatal. Stalin is deeply involved In hla most momentous Internal political crisis since tho great struggle with Trotsky, which resulted In the ban ishment of Stalin's long-hated rival and 1,600 expulsions from the party. At least 600 persons have been shot In three months, tens of thousands arrested, and many thousands dis missed from their political posts and disgraced. The epidemic has not yet abated. Stnlln lilts First But there Is every Indication that Stnlln, as he has done so often In tho past, has craftily bided his time and struck a llghtnlng-Uke first blow, smashing all potential opposl tlon before It could stem an oppor tunity to coalesce eftectlvely. Every. thing points to the fact that Stalin has won again. Tho foundations of the Soviet re gime have been shaken momentarily People are bewildered and confused by the sudden swath of executions and arrests, by tho disgrace of so many once prominent figures of the ruling clique. But the solid monolith of the Communist party does not seem to be cracked Irreparably. At no time during the two months of the crisis has there been any In dication of popular support of the disaffected elements, either In the party, the army, or the non-party mass. Nor has there been the slight est rumor of disorder or uprising anywhere In the Soviet union. Lack Explanation Even diplomats and foreign cor respondents who have lived for years In the Soviet union find themselves bewildered and hard pressed to dls- I cover an explanation which satisfac torily covers all ramifications of the purge. The most reasonable guess at tne underlying roason for such a general purge Is that some development or combination of developments gave Stalin such a fright thot he decided to "crack down" ruthlessly on all classes and kinds of potential op- position, no matter what, before It had a chance to unite. Any regime that has lasted 20 years, especloily a roglme which had to resort to as many repressive meas. ures as the bolsheviks have, Is bound to make enemies. Undoubtedly there wire elements hostile to Stalin with in the party. But I found nobody who believed that there was any really organized support of the Trotskylst Idea that Stalin had "botrayed the revolution," although there were those who In dividually disagreed with the course that the revolution was taking under Stalin's leadership. Pure Socialism Lost They felt that the revolution on many points bad strayed from the line of pure socialism advocated by the original bolsheviks such devl attone as allowing peasants to hold small plots of land for gardening and feeding domestlo animals. Tho res. toratlon (although under almost confiscatory taxation) of the right of Inheritance, the encouragement of deposits In savings banks, the protection of private Incomes from work and savings, the tightening of divorce regulations and tho abolition of abortion. Charges of wrecking or sabotage, which also figure Importantly In the purge, result from negligence, slack, ness, even ignorance, which cause the breskago of machines and the In. terruptlon of production or trans port. And I know of foreign engi neers with yoars ot experience in Soviet factories who are personally convlnoed that there has been fre quent sabotage and wrecking In fac tories for political reasons. Many of the old Bolsheviks caught up In the current purge had been conspirators by career all of their lives before the Bolshevist revolu tion. It Is not Improbablo that some had retained their tasto for under around work. Every known frlond of Tmtskv. even friends of his friends, were rounded up. Espionage overdrawn. Espionage la another reason for the purge. There seems not the slight est reason to doubt thst foreign ua- tlons have and are maintaining spies In tho Soviet union. Every major military nation lu Europe maintains spying organizations among ner strongest neighbors, out certainly not everyone labeled In the soviet as a Japanaae or German spy, or a a fascist spy, was on foreign pay roll. Anyone who recalls the epldemlo nf Herman sDles" In the United States during the World yar under- stsnds what happens under the stress of war-time hysteria. The Soviet union labors under war-tlmo men tality now, as It has frequently to a greater or less degree during the last 20 years. Some of the charges In the press, such as ths Infection ot bouquets with potato cancer, the Infection of cotton areas with pink worm, the poisoning of water sources and the spreading of contagious diseases among cattle, are reminiscent of war time days tn the United States. When one comes to tne cam o Marshal Mlchall Tukhachevaky and seven other generals of the Bed army, conjecture regarding the background of their executions Is complex and unsatisfactory. Commissars May Be Key. Ths key to Uia mvstexy Dosslbll of his political battle with Leon may be found In Stalin's decision In May to restore the Institution of political commissars attached to Urge army units. The commissars are vir tually spies to keep an eye on the actions ot the army commanders and report directly to the political party. it was provided that every order had to be ocunterslgned by two of three persona the commander, the assist ant commander and or the political commissar. Any American making his career In the army might be expected to object bitterly to su,ch an arrange ment. Tukhachevsky and other gen erals may have resisted this Institu tion and continued their resistance to a point regarded as suspicious or as a deviation from the party line. It has boon known that some upper career militarists were lees Inter ested In the bolshevlitatlon of the army than In military efficiency. A timetable ot the closing-days of Marshal Tukhachevsky's career re veals with what devastating sudden ness the crisis broke. In February I was assured everywhere In Moscow that in event ot war the marshal, recognized as among the world's most brilliant tacticians, would command the Red armies In the field. Late In Mr.rch he personally confirmed to one , of my friends that ho had been chosen to represent the Soviet union at the coronation of King George VL Executed In Month. This appointment was cancelled later, but on May 1 Tukhachevsky stood beside Stalin In fled square, re viewing the May Day parade. After ward with Stalin he received the army oftlcers. Eleven days later he unexpectedly was demoted to a provincial post. One month later he was arrested. tried hastily and shot. As the story goes In Moscow, Tuk hachevsky was Arrested by subterfuge after being summoned back from tha Volga, ostensibly to attend a meet ing of army commanders. He was seized In the middle of the night while en route to Moscow In his pri vate car. Just why Stalin felt It necessary to relnstltute tho system ot political commissars remains a moot point, but It Is evident that he mistrusted the unswerving loyalty of certain commanders. Several of the executed generals had undergone training In Germany during the period of Russo Gcrman friendship. It Is likely that they retained certain friendships, per haps even contacts, with German of ficers whose military efficiency they admired. Apropos of this point, an Incident occurred during my visit , to Moscow In February which I do not pretend to understand. I heard a definite rumor that the Soviet and German general staffs had or were about to establish contact. I Ignored the ru mor because It seemed fantastic to believe that a casual foreigner would hear suoh a closely guarded secret, but again I heard It In high official circles In Prague, Czecho-Slovakut. Whether there was any truth to the rumor or whether It was being circulated deliberately for obvious reasons, I do not know. (Tomorrow Miller describes Stalin's precautions against assassination.)
