`r'he following quotation was contained in a report delivered
by _:italin at a Plenary Session of the Central Committee and (control
Commission of the Communist Party of the 1:13S R on January 7, 1933,
in giving the results of the Hirst Five Yoar Plan: ",`hey k these
have-beans) are organizin.T wrecking activities in the collective
farina and state farms, and some of them, including certain
professors, of to such lengths as to inject the germs of plague
and anthrax into the cattle on the collective and the state farms,
help spread meningitis among horsesS, etc." It is interesting that
in attacking the agricultural experts a o were criticizing col-
lectivisation, 3tslin used the same germ warfare propa~ xnaa w:iicia
fie is now using against us in Korea* It seems to me tf is ; igiat be
useful for propaganda purposes and we are considering here now to
use it throuiz1 channaLs available to use
