SELFISH WALL STREET INTERESTS PREVENT AGREEMENT IN THE MATTER OF ATOMIC
ENERGY. DECLARATION BY THE SOVIET UNION DELEG ATE TO THE UN.
Foreign despatch
New York .(PAP) At the last session of the UN Atomic Committee,
Soviet delegate Malik summed-up the Soviet Union attitude to the
problem of atomic energy: 1) This attitude is expressed by stating
that in the interest of all mankind it is necssary to forbid imme-
diately the use of atomic energy for war Iurpdnes, to destroy 'the stock
of atcrosbombs, to stop the production of atomic weapons, to establish
? strict international control over atomic en=orgy and assure the use
of this energy exclusively for peaceful aim and for the-welfare of
mankind. 2) The attitude of. the ruling ci:rclea in the UUnited States
and ij the countri~:: s depending on it, consist in striving for the
creation of a monopolistiL atom trust under the control of the Uni-
tcd States, and for the possesion of the worli's stock of uranium and
thorium. THE ESSENTIAL DIFFERENCE BETWLEN THEE TWO ATTITUDES LIES
IN THE-FACT THAT THE aTTITTJDE CF THE SOVI jT UNION CORRESPONDS TO THE
INTERESTS OF ALL MANKIND, AND, BASED ON THE FPINCIPLES OF THE UN
CHARTER, TENDS TO THE STRENGTHENING F PEACE ;, XD INTERNATIONAL SECU-
RITY-. IT EXPRESSES THE SINCERE STRIVING OF THi SOVIET UNION FOR THE

SECTION A DOMESTIC
THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE CHCTRCt AND
THE STATE DEPENDS ON THE ATTITUDE OF THE CLERGY.
THE CHURCH IN POLAND IS ENJOYING COMPLETE
RELIGIOUS FREEDOM,
DECLARATION OF THE POLISH GOVERNTMENT Domestic Despatch
On March l4, the Secretary of the Episcccpa.te Committee,
Rev,Bishop Zygmunt Chorcma-lski, Palled on the Minister of Public
Administration, ;omrada Wladyslaw -wolski, with the object .of
discussing problems relating to the adjustment of the relationship
between the State and. the Church.. During the course of the conversa-
tion Comrade Minister Woiski made a statement on the subject of the
general aspect of the relations between the State and the Church.
Minister Wolski said inter alia:-
"1. It has been noted that for sever4l months this hostile
activities of certain sections of the Clergy, directed, against the
People's Government and State, have been intensified,
A part of the higher Church hierarchy 'is-trying, through
pastoral letters and secret institutions,, to provoke anxiety and
stir-up the people, because of an alleged threat t3 religion,
without having any real foundatinns for such activities..
"2 There are frequent case's cf priests :spoonse ring various
criminal and anti-State grrups and even directly cooperating with-
these agencies of Anglo-American imperialism,
"3. All this is obviously incompatible with the united efforts
of the majrrity'of the community which is reconstructing the devas-
tated country, which desires order, peace and prosperity and which is
cpposed.to all attempts at arresting the development of the country
in the field of social achievements.,
"The Government, guardian of peace and public order, will not
tolerate seditious activities. Therefore, only a change of the pre-
sent attitude of the Church hierarchy and the disc-;ntinuance oc hostil
practices against the People's State by ity may create a basis for
the adjustment of the relationship between the State and the Church.
"1+. 'he Government most definitely asserts tAa.t it does not
intend to rcstrict religious .fr?::edsm. The Clergy in Poland enjoy
various,, rights to a greater extent than in many Western-European
countries, All rumours about the abolishment of religious teaching
in schools are groundless.

"The Gnvernment will also resolutely rpp -se outrages, in-
sulting the religious feeltngw of believers sd vinlating the legal
regulations in force.
"5. Educational institutions, whether run by monastic cr by
secular clergy, will enjoy apprnpr. fate rigrtr , prviacd they conform
to the req,irements stipulated in the laws arai regulations in force.
"~limilarly, benevolent institutions run. ')y monastic or secular
clergy, will be able to operate under an apprc.priate centr^1 and
supervision of their activities by the State authorities.
"6. The State authnrities do not intend o interfere with the
problems of religious cult ter with the interrml problems of Church
administration. 'hey will, however, demand that the legal status
a,f the Linceses and of their-boundaries show _i be put in n dY.,r in
conformance with the now legal :der and the 4ew State frontiers.
III,? . The de finite regulation of the ref , 1.ionship between the
State and the Chuurch; which will be expr? ssea in the new c"restitution
will be shaped, so far as the right;, of the ?:aurch hierarchy are
crr.ncerned, on the basis o. the Experiences re. ul'iti:ng from the attitude
*f the Clergy and of the hur.eh 1 ic:rarchy t--n, rds the People's State.

THE STATE AND THE CHURC.i
Lead Ed 11for ial
In People's Poland there is a freedom of faith and the freedom
of religious cult. The Government does r.ot interfere with the : e-
].igicus life if the citizens nor does it int+ .Mere with the internal
problems of Church administration. The grin- t.ple ^f religious
i.sleration, however, dc6ccs not in the least irr,rly that the i overnment
will a4.1ow the freec`oms conferred in the Church tr be abuse by
political activities directed against People ` Poland.
Yet certain sections of the Catholic ? ?a : rgy, and particularly of
the higher Church hierarchy, have for a long dime been adopting a
hostile ati;itude against the Pe.op e's Governxient and State.
The: Church hierarchy has so far not counteracted these? criminal
activities of its subordinate priests and ,hacf not even tried to
dissociate itself frr.,'n these criminal activi"t Les*
We well remember that, in connection with the problem Cf 4:ur
Western frontiers the attitude of the. 'Clh rch ierarchyf was irrecori-
cila.ble with the Polish national and State it `crest,
And all this happens in spite of the fac that the Catholic
Clergy en -ly in Poland, nest only complete fr~ ,dora, but =ils-l pri.vi-
Ieges which it does net enjoy in most of the Jestein e-un.trie s,
It is obvious that neither the Ucvernmerm nor the )ec3ple can or
will tolerate any dis rrders resulting fr-_orr, ti s a.ttitu off' the
nigher Church hies archy and of certain lower evols of the Catholic
clergy.

In aatilal faact, this pact. is an institutien apposed to the
Security ccuncil, 1.na_;m'ch as it is taking over its functions in
regulating international, conflicts.
`The Atlantic pact contains a_ clause to the effect that the
pact is riot inc-Dmp^tible with any treaties prevTiccusly ocnciuded
by states who h have acceded to it. his refer: particularly to
the British-h'oviet' and _?renoh_bovi et pacts conc'uded duri-rig, the war..
But since Great Britain_ and,, France are f 4.und~,r-members of a pact
which is aimed against the -~viet TJnion, it would naturally tallow
that such an attitude ca~_-net but be inooonsistert with previ:us
agreements, which precluded prrecisely the passibility of such pacts.
Such an of planatisn, inserted in the N' r th=A tlantic pact, is a
patent deviation fr `m truths
Thus, from the U,N.Charter's clause invoked in the pact it
clearly follows that the J atter's f o)rmal tenor, as well as

TASS correspondent in Washington, commenting en the publication
of the Atlantic Pact, reports: The general appraisal ofth~fNorth

ruling circles of the United States and Great. Britain, has already
been made in. the declaration by y the Soviet Ministry of. o, eign Affairs
published ran January 299, 3i949. The text-published now published
~rrgves that this Pact
p
completely confirms this appraisal, tom' text
has ? cYara tE_r? It provides for a merger o andf
military frrces of the participants for joint military
the creation of a corresponding military organ. The particularly
striking feature of this P^.ct is that it provides f~.)r military moves
embracing several States, these moves considerably exceeding the
framework of agreements of a regional character. This reveals the
fact that the tact is inc'ruGaWible with the UN Oharter. Dr ,,Leming
Mosc:~W Radio commentator, says that the many demonstrations which
took place in Italy and France against the Atlantic Pact prcve that
the Anglo-American warmongoars and their satellites encounter unsurmcur
table cbstacle^ among the nations which firmly dLclarc themselves for
peace in their attempts to build aggressive pacts.

U.N. leclaration and in 1946 the U.N. Charter in San Francisco.
In spite of this, Great Britain which, by the Jnglo-Iraq Treaty
of 1930, rrcogn izad the "fu'_I equality and cemolete independence"
1 Iraq, has been occupying this country inte.rupt?,71y since 1941.
in nd-ai.tion, on the basis of an a rcemcnt cor~ lu''cc on Jane ry 15

the last allied soldier leaves the enemy terr`..tories, i.e Germany,
Italy aid Japan. It an-ears from this that Iraq is being treated both

in Increased poverty among the Iraqi population. As there have been
no prospects of n increase in wages for a long time, the financial

The present minimum, cost of living is 18.5 Iraq Pounds compared with
an average nay of an office employee. of 6 to 7 Pounds.

"DEFENSIVE CLAUSES" OF THE
ATLANTIC PACT. ANGLO-SAXONS' PLANS
FOR AUSTRIA AND WESTERN GERMANY
Vienna March 18, (PAP) Foreign Despatch
The local-press carried a report fr;~m London that in the opinion
of the initiators of the Atlantic Pact the "defensive clauses" of
this tact should automatically a pply to Western Germany and Austria.
Giving this information the journal "Der Abend" stated that it
has the effect of a bomb-shell on all olasses of the population.
Without any warning, writes the journal, the Austrian nation learned
that attempts are being made behind its back to involve Austria in
the Atlantic Pact. In view of the fact that Austria i`s occupied by
four Powers, the carrying but of this plan w~iild mean the division of
the country into zones. the Journal asks. whether such a decision is
possible without the consent of the Austrian Government which has
been recognized by all the prospective signatories to the Atlantic
Pact. In conclusion "Der Abend" expressed-the hope that the Austrian
nation, which desires Austria to remain a uniform country and which
has peaceful iRtentians, will declare its opinion in this problem.

STRONG PROTEST OF THE POLISH GOVERNMENT Foreign Despatch

Polish Infcrmatio.~ Bureau fin March 15, the irate Expressed. a very
strong pr,i*test of the Pmlish Government agai 1st this new hostile
action of the Federated People's Republic of Yugoslavia t--wards
People's P-land.
The Polish Inf,rmation Bureau, by pcpulri.zing the efforts
and the political, economic and cultural achievements of the Palish
nation, was. trying to dev ?lop and cultivate ;'ricnd.ly` relations
between the P 1 sh nation and the nations cf' Yugoslavia These
activitie~q of the Polish Information Bureau have been f ally abprc-
ciated and looked upor with syrn;3a:thy by the ,^;.ad ma ses c~f the
Belgrade population., who used tr visit the l ?tbrary and the exhibitions
organized in the Bureau's p emises,,
On March 2 of this year the Deputy Mini. ;ter fa?r Foreign Affairs
of the Ywa.r rslavian Federated. ?eaple's .Republ ;.e, Mates, ini'ormed the
Polish Ambassador, Wende, of the deci.sio i of the Yugoslav Government
to have the Polish Information Bureau liq.uid:-ted within three days.
Untjj the end rf January 1949 the Yugc,-alav G nvernnynent showed
no intention of opening similar inst tut ion in Warsaw. Orily after
January 26, 1949 did the Yugoslav Embassy in Warsaw r qae ,t the
P- lisp Ministry of Foreign Affairs f #r p~ rmi; sxor is open a
permanent informative exhibition and f r sui (able premises in the
centre of Warsaw.
The Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs $ in Not as of January 31,
1949 and of February 16, 1949 informed the Yugoslav Embassy in
Warsaw that the natter was being dealt with,
In. view ~f the above the Pr:lisl., Embassy assertes that the
unfriendly decision of the Yug islav G,-;ve--gent to close the premises
of the palish Information. Eurea.u' in Belg:ade which. bears the farm
of an ultimatum, is a NEW PRO1F OF THE HO~.STI':IE ATTITUDE OP' THE
YUGJSLAV GOVERNMENT TO THE DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE'S POLAND.
The Polish -6mbassy declared th-~t in the ?a circumstances the
responsibility for this hostile step against Poland, i.e., the
closing of the P -ligh In'(-)rmation Bureau, which is undoubtedly
inconsistent with Yugccslav pifblic opinion, rj~ sts entirely and
exclusively with the Yugoslav Government, in view,rf 'which the
Polish '2overnment will act accordingly,
The day after the closing of the Polish I'nfc rmat Ion Bureau its

NEW TASKS OF THE MINISTER OF FINANCE Article by Dr,Adol:f.Atlas
(Exe rpts)
After having considered, the budgetary estimate of the Ministry
.;f Finance for 1949, the Financial-Budgetary -nd Economic Planning
Committee of the Seem has passed a r esolutiorn recommending that the
Legislative e jm should express Its sincere appreciation to the
Minister of ' inance for his purposeful policy for balancing of the
budget, and for his thrifty management of sty, to expendtturie.
We are entering the present budgetary year, the last year of the
three year plan, .,from where we start the grcat six year plan,
with immense achievements behind us in the fl.,o-ld of finance,
What are.the latest achievements?
(1) We have developed the clearance syst:_:m on a remarkably
large scale, with the result that clearing trnsactions exceed
94+ of the total volume of transactions and in relation to bank-
notes in circulation, have reached the record figure of 108%.
(2) Regardless of changes in the system :;f wages the issue of
banknotes during the first months of this year not only was-riot
increased but, on the contrary, was reduced, which taking into
consid,~ratirn the fact that the amount of go::ds is st?:s:dil;i ncreasin,
In Poland, is a considerably success.
('3) We have decidedly entered the path cf justified thrift, and
this is not an emergency campaign but a permanent system. We are
it the same time working out.definite method of s,,-.ving.
Owing to a spirit of thrift, which has prevat1cd`rem$ the very
`first moment of the birth of our state, we arF. now able to glory in
the results of the work of the Ministry of F-.nance. he whole point
is to make this spirit predominate in all centers of state work. It
will be an in portant task of the future Minis try of Finance to
inspire the nation as a whole with a respect for small f igur(~s, for

SECTION B
PURG IN U.S. ARM` Y.- INVE.STIGEITI ON . INTO Ti . S . SOLDIERS' "LOYALTY",
SERVES THE INTER1 STS OF REACTIONARY CIRCLES. Article
At the ,beginihing of March 1946 a representative of the U.S. War
Ministry stated officially that his Ministry had changed its previous
policy toward's "subversive and unreliable elements", and decider] to
remove such pers,,ns from their posts. A special section dealing with
"the political attitude of the army" was soon created and attached to
the admi?nistrat; on handling civil. matters of the U.S. army. The acti-
vity of that section consisted of issuing various instructions, with
the objec.t-.of "putting an end to communist -propaganda" in the army
and purging it of "disloyal elemE nts" . AS a matter of fact, the
dismissal from the American army 'of persons suspected of being "dis-
loyal" began much earlier.
After Truman''s decree ordering "investigation into the loyalty of
Government officials" the American military authorities issued a num-
ber of special instructions which they justified by the "absolute
necessity of securing the, American armed forces against penetration
by disloyal elements". A "purge" in, special branches and in factories
producing secret war material and atow,ic energy was hastily made.
As a result of "trials" a number of scientists were dismissed.
At the beginning of January, 1949 the atomic energy control com-
mittee prepared-a questionaire containing 18 points, in accordance
with which inquiries are held as to the !'loyalty" of persons working
in.atomic energy plants. Warmongers ' entertain the vain hope that, by
removing I'dislova1" elements from the American armed forces, they
will prevent infor? a tion finding its ?way to the progressive -press
about preparations made by imperialists for bringing about a new
world conflict,
The "loyalty" of American forces stationed outside the U.S. is
investigated wit! particular care. The second object of the "purge"
(also serving the interests of American reaction) is to prepare the
army for,fighting the people's masses. All this makes it clear that
the ''loyalty" of soldiers serving in the. TJ.S.armed forces is investi-
gated, not only for the -purpose of using these forces in the event
of a war. The "-purge" in. the army is necessary to capitalists in or-
der to use it as an obedient instrument for oppressing people's
masses,

Our exports increased by 36%r% compared w~th 1947 and included 22
countries. Last gear for the first time sine the war we sent our
prod,,icts to 1_.gvpt, Iran and Australia. It IS planned to increase pro-

the same time increasing employment figu:^es :y no more than 4.7;x. It
Is rlsnned to produce this year red ceramics to the value of about

lime compared with 31,275 tons in.1947. In a?cordanee with the guiding
principles of the 6-Year Plan, the aggregate value of the mineral In-

production.
Our plans may best be described by th.,, fo.s.lowing figures which
relate to articles most needed for reconstm,tion: a) production of

a certain number of new establishments will '.ncrea8e our brick pro-

double our production of high-quality roafin; cardboard. d) our quar-

THE ACTIVITIES -OF THE CENTRAL TRADING AGENCY FOR T -F PAPER I)NTDITSTRY
IN 1948. Domestic despatch
Last year the market was, in principle, adequately supplied
with paper and paper products. Free market.prices declined around
tha second quarter of 1948 owing to the distribution polic of whole-
sale cooperativc:s and of the coooerativ s belonging to the Central
,Trading ! ency for the Paper -'Industry. During, that year-there was
sometimes a short:age.of newsprint, brown cardboard and lignin.
In- requirements were, h-wever, satisfied and a general-
im-provement took place towards the end of the year. With regard to
lignin, the market demand was met in full due to the bringing into
use of a new machine in the Czulow factory.
The number of the Agency's wholesale depots rose from 16 in 1947
to 30 in 1948 and the turnover increased from .2.091,177,000 zl. to
.3,970,344,000.zl. respectively. The 1948 sales plan was exceeded by
19,725,801 z1.
he 1949 sales plan provides for transactions of a volume of
283,000 tons compared with 252,000 tons in the previous year and
valued at 7.6.biliion zl. (7.3 billion zl. in 194L).

In connection with the second anniversary of the Polish-Czocho-

has' issued a statement for the Polish press, as follows,
"Political and economic co-operation between Poland and Czecho-
slovakia during ' the period between the two wars was not suited to
the best i.nterects of the two n0thboring countries.
"Poland and, Czechoslovakia are interested primarily in
solving the German problem in a r.an:.-iei precluding the possibility
of revival of reactionary and aggressive forces in Germany and
making it impossible to use (or abuse) Germany for adventurous
imperialistic purposes,
"It is therefore natural th t Coccho-Slovakia, like-Poland , is
now marching at the silo of the Soviet Union in the present fight
against the forces of world, reaction, in the fight for securing
peace and loyal .co operation .bo ,ween democratic peace-loving nations.'

AM RICAN DI 'DC ~."'IS WITH THEIR M S tS (Continuation of excerpts
from Annabella B(wca r' s book). tirticle
The hook citos facts sh-'wi.ng that Ore of the ugliest sides of the
American Frnbassy's activities in Moscow is the fabrication of anti-
Soviet calinnies and sup ~1ri.a.g them for the use by American reactio-
narics. This "w.ork" which constitutes a c^nsiderable part of the bulk
of the American Embassy's work oonfc"r;s entirely both with the anti-
Sovi tl~ttitud-le cf the~Emh:o,ssyns chi fs (inclu,ling Ambassador Smith,
De erbrcw and r first ,ccretri(-s Davis and Rc innard.t) and
with the US State Department's official 'directives.
The authoress states.. "The wmbass7l's leadership does not., tolerate,
on the cart of any of its staff even a shade of unbiased attitude to-
wards the Soviet Union, .nr any attenmt to bQ,'corne acquainted, with the
country and its noan e ,or to -obtain and send to the America nation
any trim i_nformatic,n about life in th,.. USSR."
The book reveals that the American Fm
bassy's intelligence work is
pursucd m.ctholieally and according to a carefully devised system.
Thus, t.g. the krlb^ss'y.'s economic branch collects .information about
the activities f Soviet industry and the quantity and cha:ra,cter of
its nroducticnq it keens a subject file relating to-Soviet economy.
In this file - it enters data gathcre.l by the imbsssy's employees and
drawn .from the Soviet press. A similc:.r system is followed by the Agri
cultsural section. It gathers information about the amount of the pre-
vious year's crops and expects-d crops in the USSR.

portant an,,'d unimpor. tot information received . The way the text for

the.fact,that the proportion of military expenditure's to the entire
State budget proves the peaceful policy of the Government. In 1949
theexrenditures on the Army amount to 8 percent of the total State

POLISH 1948 EXPORTS DOUBLED IN
COMPARISON WITH 1947 Domestic Despatch
Detailed statistica calculations concerning Poland's foreign
-trade, completed a few days ago, show that the volume of Poland's
transactions with foreign countries' exceeded one billion dollars
in 191+8. The value of Polish exports in 1948 amounted to $528,134,00{
A comparison between 1948 and preceding years shows that:
41) when compared with imports in 1947 amounting to $319 135,000
Polish imports in 1948 increased b 607e This amounts to 349k of
,191+6 imports,.which amounts to $ 1 51778,000
(2) when compared with 1947, Polish exports increased more
than twice ($248,221 000 in 1947) and more than four times when
compared with 1946 (i27, 241,000 in 1946),
Attention should be drawn to the advantageous structure of
trade; the import of capital go'sds and equipment for our industry
.and agriculture is steadily increasing while goods exported by us
are of mach greater diversity, Besides coal, we are exporting
mainly agricultural products, textiles, irony steel, pig iron, metal
industry and metallurgical industry products, zinc, zinc sheets,
glass, ware, Coal continuesy of course, to be the principal item

in our exports. The value of coal and coke xpor ted in 3948 is about
ten times ,larger than in 1945.
At the same time the geographical scope of our trade is steadily
widening. Last year Poland had, trade relations with 33 countries
(including 23 with which we have bilateral agreements). The Soviet
Union, Sweden, Czechoslovakia and England acupied the first places.
In 1948 the share of the Soviet Union and.of people's democratic
countries in our trade amounted to 46%, the ?3oviet Union being in
first place, It should be emphasized that th-,ir share.: in the total
volume of Polish trade is steadily increasing .and when compared with
1-947, shows an increase of 8%. For the sake of comparison it should
be added that in 1938 the share in Poland's trade of the USSR and
of the gauntries now ruled by people's demopracy was only 7%.
On the other hand we observe that trade 'with the United States
is shrinking.' A further stenning up of trade and ever broadening
economic co-operation with the Soviet Union..tnd with people's demo-
cratic countries are the key stones in our post-war trade policy.

SECTION B
DIPLOiJ:CY OF THE SPYING VL RIETY Article
(Verbatim)
'"Political intelligence service was the normal function of
American anc British diplomats ccrcd.itod to Eestcrn European
countries after the last war." This is clearly, and frankly stated
In one of the recent issues of the, British per_iodical: "The Econo-
mist". It is difficult for us to disagree with this opinion of
the organ of British. financiers, ale remember from our own exped
ri_ence the activities of M~essrs,Cavendish-Bentinck and Bliss Lane,
We also recollect the. role played by the workers of Anglo-Saxon
missions in Ru a,nia and zlgar ta, We recently heard details of'
the activity of Mr,Chapin in Hungary. As, we see, the list- of
"normal `unctions" of Western diplomats is extensive. A resume
of such facts was made by An .abella Bucar, former official of the
American Embassy in Moscow. In the book recently, published by her,
she proves, on the. strength of many examples that the staff of
American diplomats In countries in the anti-`imperialist camp swarms
with many spies. of higher or lesser rank. It is not by accident
that in the countries behind the so-called "Iron curtain", impe-
rialists sought the support of remnants of the bourgeoisie and
landed gentry for their activities. It is also not by accident that,
after the tremendous achievements of all these countries ) this
natural base of support has srirunk to a minimum, Today the poli-
tical activity of imps Jal.ists has greatly. receded and expionagej
diversion and attempts at: sabot, ge have assumed foremost importance,
Espionage' centers.are at nre$ent being-extended by imperialists
in all countries. In Western Europe their task is to foment anti-
comi~uiZist baiting and to help warmongers in their "pious work".
For example, An Western Berlin the-American "Office for Strategic
S@rvices"is operating and controls tremendous sums of. money and
hundreds of agents. .Si_milar institutions under various names are
being created everywhere within the reach of Anglo-Aaxon diplomacy,.
Rightist "socialists" are being dratm,into the Anglo-American
intelligence service more and: more openly. The notorious "Eastern
Section"- of. Scliumacher's German Socialist Party is a badly masked
central espionage ageicy. The `same applies to the "Trade Union
Bureau'! of Mr.Irvin?; Drown in Brussels. Certain American press re
presentatives it Eastern and Central European countries are also
used, for espionage purposes, All these "mori ts" of diplomats of
suspicious behaviour caused anxiety even in great capitalistic
circles, In,thhe above mentioned article ,The Economist" criticizes
the behaviour of Americana diplomats considering their work m thods
as too crude and transparent. The' British periodical has, of course l
no objections to the objectives of their activities. Appealing to
'the $,Fate Department for "certain moderation" and for maintenance
of appearances in the espionage work in foreign countries, "The
Economist"suggests that "the lines of political representation
of intelligence service and of other functions, such as for in-
stance, "aid to.refugees, should not intermingle in too obvious
a manner" fort as the paper says, "there is no room for amateurs"
in anti-imperialist countries. We may also add that in the count-
ries of.the democratic camp there is no room for professional spies
not only for amateurs, This is our casual comment, We are grateful
to the reactionary Western papers,. which raised such an uproar about
the trial of Mindszenty and other traitors, for their admission that
this uproar was intended to hush up the truth by the notorious
method of the thief who shouts: i'catch the thief", Trybuna Ludu #66

REMOVAL OF SPARK GOVERN!-ENT IS A
CONDITION FOR REALIZATION OF NATION'S
PEACEFUL AIMS, THE BELGIAN COMMUN'-ST
PARTY'S CENTRAL COMMITTEE -]SOLUTION Foreign Despatch
Brussels March 7 (PAP)
The Belgian Communist Party's Central Committee has adopted a
resolution in which it emphasized that thee '"Belgian nation considers
itself closely bound to all those nations which arc combatting the
war campaign waged against the Soviet Union and the people's demo-
cracies. The hypothesis of an aggressive war provoked by the Soviet
Union is absurd. The Soviet Union is.not an aggressor but is the
strongest peaceful powor in the world,
"The Belgian Communist Party's Central Committee therefore
declares that should the lackeys of American imtomrialism, which are
now ruling B=:.,lgium, succeed in involving the country in a war against
the Soviet Union, the communists and the predominant majority of the
Belgian working class will refuse participation in this.crimc and
will combat the enemies of the Belgian nation and of humanity with
all available means," R.zoczpospolite ilarch 8, 1949 #66 and others

GERALN CANNON FODDER Editorial by Xr:?zysztof Radziwill
Following Thnrez, Togliatti and Pollij. t who,-on behalf if the
French, Italian and British working masses clearly declared themselvc
against the unteosing Qf a third World War engincerr-d by American
imperialism against the Soviet working ma s . es , the German working
masses are now raising their voice of warning. The German workers
and peasants who, through he fault of the Junkers (and>wnerj) and
cariralistic imperialism of the Second Reich aad of National-Socialist
fanaticism of the `third Reich, have spread -ill b :ttlef0lds in
Europe with their corpses before they retained to their destroyed
cities and villages, are sick and tired of all this, In fact, these
German masses, held in iron discipline or deluded by degenerated
fanaticism of the German upper classes. ha n always teen merely
cannon fodder, in the pass? for even if they fought in their Aran
army and allegedly Or their own nati orn, it is not they who reaped
benefit from eventual victories and now it is they and not "their
criminal leaders who have to eat the bitter pill of defeat, It is
well that, besides the voice of ?renchien, : ta.Lans and Britishero
the vice of that nation, which has in the past suptlied most of
the cannon fodder in all imperialist wars is nrw hoaard, The
announcement of the German working masses, it a moment when American
warmongers are ccntemplatiLg a third war to be waged primarely with
German hands and in their country, devastate by the last war, is
undoubtedly an important contribution to pi ce and we do not doubt,
therefore, that this announcement will als , convince Americans of
German descent who are regrettably, the fie rcest inatiga ce rs of a
third war. Kurier Codzienny #62 March 4,-1949 only (1.28 lines)
