Russia Planning To
Conquer Europe
Through Subversion
Washington (U.R) Moscow's
strategy calls for conquering
Western Europe by infiltration
and subversion instead of out
right war, a former member of
the Italian and French Com
munist parties said today.
A. Rossi of the University of
Paris, a pioneer Red who broke
vith the Communists in 1929,
said the Soviet Union "has no
interest in paying a heavy price
by running a serious risk of war
to control Western Europe for
Its benefit."
He said the Kremlin plan Is
to use non-military methods "to
obtain the same result almost
without cost."
"If France, Western Germany,
nd Italy are neutralized, if the
German Ruhr industrial com
plex ceases to furnish an eco
nomic foundation for the de
fense of the West, if the bonds
between France and England and
America are greatly loosened,
if not broken, the U.S.S.R. will
no longer have anything to fear
from that direction," Rossi said.
Views Outlined
Rossi outlined his views before
nearly 350 business, educational,
scientific and government offi
cials who are attending a seminar
cn the Soviet Union sponsored
by Johns Hopkins University,
The speaker, one of the
founders of the Italian Com
munist party, is regarded as one
cf free Europe's top students of
the Communist party.

bigamy, unlawful cohabitation
and contributing to the delin
quency of minors.
The women were seized when
Utah officers, on extradition ac
tion demanded by Arizona au
thorities, raided the Short Creek,
Utah, hamlet of polygamists.
Flee Into Desert
Twenty-two women, their hus
bands and 100 children belong
ing to the Apostate Mormon cult
fled into bleak desert mountains
surrounding their colony shortly
before the raid.
There were an estimated 40
men, 90 polygamist wives ana
263 children in the village be
fore the raid, officers said.
The defendants were living on
the Utah side of the Short Creek
polygamy community that strad
dles the Utah-Arizona border.
Some of the inhabitants were
those who escaped from the
Arizona side during a raid by
that state's officers three weeks
ago.
Church Opposes Polygamy
The six captives willingly sub
mitted to arrest, but refused to
divulge the whereabouts of their
spouses and their sister-wives,
along with an army of children.

Saints disavowed polygamy as
a tenet 63 years ago and has
since vigorously opposed plural
marriages.
