Moscow Paper Denounces Writings Of U. S. Scribe MOSCOW, July 11 UPL The Ificial communist newspaper Pravda asserted today , that Brooks Atkinson, former New Vork Times correspondent in Moscow, was an "untalcnlcd landerer," " Kannster of the pin" and' a "product of the i lock exchange and black mar ket." ' The Pravda writer, David Easlavsky, criticized Atkinson for saying he found "an iron curtain" in Russia and that this term is a "devilishly appropri ate expression." The Pravda writer said At kinson was a writer who "jumps out" after living "ten months behind that infamous curtain.'"- The Pravda article continued: "What a aensationt Pricking up their ears and straining their eyes, the trusting American peo ple are ready to know the se crets of the de-screened world. But there awaits them deep dis appointment." The Pravda article then dealt with Atkinson's statements say ing that inside the Soviet Union there existed no kind of free dom, no democracy but only totalitarianism. "Old Twaddle" Zaslavsky said the Times writer was repeating "old twad dle" without noting "in what a laughable and foolish situation he placed himself. This is not plain slander; this is undigni fied slander." Dealing with Atkinson's claim that there were grounds for believing the Soviet Union was interfering in French poli tics, subsidizing the French communist party and giving it directives, the Pravda writer said: "It would be altogether use less to speak with this savage. It is impossible for this product of the stock exchange and the black market to understand thut the party, uniting an ap preciable part of the French people, does not need directives and will not tolerate any such directives. The Pravda article said At- Teen-Age Club To Shut Down The high school Teen-Age club, in the armory, an exclu sive club for high school stu dents and alumni, will close July 13 for one month, accord ing to Mary O'Brien, member of the student teen-age com mittee. Repairs are being con templated by the committee. in the club's quarters. Plans for remaining open during the coming month were abandoned when students from both Klamath Union high school and the Sacred Heart academy failed to show enough interest to merit remaining open. The month of August is usually an annual vacation for the committee, according to Miss O'Brien. The adult advisory committee met with the teen-age group Tuesday night and recommend ed the closing. The club will be open again on August 17. Schedules of nights on which the club will be open next year will be worked out later by the group. : N. Y.

IN MEMOHIAM In loving memory of Robert (Dick) Hollingsworth, who passed away at Lake o' the Woods a year ago yesterday. -SEE- R. V. HORN State Farm Ins. Co. 2254 So. 6th St. Local Agent Phone 8405 kinson's articles were evidences of demands of the "newsoaner monoply capitalists" for "free dom of the press. 'They demand full freedom for slanders and lies," the Pravda article asserted. 'They want to establish as internation al law the irresponsibility of swindlers and bandits of the pen." (At the Times offices in New York it was said that neither the Times nor Atkinson intend ed to make any reply to Zas lavsky's attack). A series of three articles by Atkinson, giving his opinions of Russia based on his 10 months' stay in Moscow, were published in the New York Times this week. Atkinson said the United States would have to abandon "the familiar concepts of friend ship" in dealing with Russia because "friendship is not want ed. is not possible and is not in volved." Writing of the Soviet j government, Atkinson said "de spite its sanctimonious use of the word "democracy," it is a totalitarian government" and 'the familiar dictatorship of the proletariat is actually a dicta torship of the 13 members of the Politburo of the communist party." Atkinson pictured the 13 men as products of revolution and of an age when Russia was shunned. He declared "there are no freedoms inside the So viet Union." He said the Unit ed States and Russia were "not enemies, but we are not friends. Armed Peace Only Hope 'The most we can hope for is an armed peace for the next few years," Atkinson wrote. "Where our interests lie, we have to apply equal power in the opposite direction. . . . The spirit of the Soviet government is fundamentally reactionary. ! as its attitude toward defeated nations and the behavior of the red army in Manchuria sug gests." He declared an estimated 10. 000,000 to 15,000.000 political prisoners were living in jail or ' exile. He said "it is not the nature of men like members of the Politburo to feel secure" be cause they were "leaders of a backward poorly organized country that is trying to lift it self by its bootstraps in a hur ry." 'The spirit of the Soviet gov-' ernment is anti-foreign," Atkin-1 son wrote. "There has been a nameless terror about foreign ers, who are regarded as spies and enemies. . . . The leaders imagine every man's hand is against them; they imagine they i are surrounded." The correspon-; dent said he suspected that the Russian leaders "are rather commonplace men who have no experience in democracy at home and are confused by mani-; testations of democracy abroad." He wrote that "the basic fact is that the Soviet Union is a so-1 cialist state devclooing and ex panding in a capitalist world" j and that "according to the com- j munist party line, the Soviet is ' not secure as long as caoitalis- i tic countries like the U. S. and I Great Britain hold dominant i positions in the world." I SIGNS House Painting DrrsaiOB exterior GRITMAN Sign 8c Painting Co. Fkm MS 7 . Klanuih Fall.
