STALIN POINTS OUT PROBLEMS SOVIET TO FACE Speech to Congress Details “Soft Spots" of Five-Year Plan Editor's Note: This is the •fourth of a series of five articles on the economic perpectives of the Soviet Union, based on Stalin's recent report to the Communist Party Congress in Moscow. By EUGENE LYONS United Pr< ss Staff Correspondent Mo«x»w Aug. 7—(UP) —Joseph Stalin, reflecting in this respect the attitude of Russian Common- , ists ns a whole, did not attempt Ini hte regent speech before the Communist Party Congress to make lijHit of the obstacles which obstruct the tedious road to socialism on which bls country is traveling. On th contrary, he disclosed thtjm as sharply as possible, without underestimating their menace. Bnt -and in this again he ran true to-Bolshevik form—he did not permit a note of despair to inject it- :

mlf Into the process. Every additional obstacle he seemed to regard as another stimulation for the bottomless zt-al and daring of his j people. Among the principal problems ha : places that of technical personnel, Russia Is fast creating a series of new Industries and fast transferring even Its agriculture to un industrial basis. It must provide leadership, engineers, agronomists, technicians, experts of a hundred kinds, ami It must do so at an unprecedented speed. Imported leadership sun be depended upon to some extent, but It is too expen sive. To a large extent, he showed that problem may be said to apI ply to the whole industrial per- ' sonnel. Including the lowest grades it workers. The transition from primitive methods of work to tho most modernizer! has been so abrupt that the workers and peasants are far from adjusted to it. An undue proportion of tractors and other farming machines are spoil- | e ( | by inexpert handling. The quality of factory production has by no means kept pace with the general advance. The percentage of goods damaged is alarmingly high. These and other difficulties are all related to the low level of the Soviet man power. The requalificatioYi of millions is the daring task s t before the Soviet land by its leader. A relative backwardness in the matter of black metals is another
• sei .one factor which deservedly re- ■ reived Stalin's attention. Iron Is • the necessary foundation for the i entire Industrialization program but its production this year only > equals the pre-war amount. Instead of the Hl million tons of Iron a year called for by the 5-year program, the production must be "forced" to obtain at least 17 million tons- no easy job, an everyone here Is aware. The Internal problems of factory operation under socialized control that is to say, in the absence <U an all-powerful "boss" — were , not overlooked in Stalin's report. , He pointed out the need for unified direction, without distracting , Interference by factory committees, j while at the same time maintaining the necessary measure of , workers' control. The morale of , th" workers must be raised as a means for achieving higher pro- . ductlvity of labor ami eliminating waste. | in agriculture, of course, there is , the most fearsome of all obstacles, , namely the natural conservatism of . the peasant and his distrust of , Communist proposals. Stalin did not soft pedal this phase. In view , of the serious resistance encoun- ( tered in the collectivization earn- , paign it would be futile to be too | opt mistie on tills point. He rec- ( ognized that the Soviet objective , of complete collectivization involved a 100 per cent recasting of traditional ways of life and thought and therefore presented a task c’ i

colossal size. Drawing attention to tho vast importance of transportation, not only for Industry but for national defense, Stalin asserted that both the railroads and the merchant marine are far behind the general level of improvement. It is, us he put it, one of Ute "narrow places" In the whole industrialization sch< me. Somehow the Soviet regime must crawl past this narrow place, and quickly. Stalin also stopped upon the difficulties with credit and currency, the lack of livestock, the presence of elements hostile to the Soviets In the vi ry machinery of the government and of industry. There is ample material in his report of which anyone so inclined might construct a spectre of Impending disaster. But such a spectre would be alaltogether untrue to the spirit ofhis speech and to the facts presented. Indeed, the frank facing of difficulties is one of the sources of Soviet strength. The age-old adag° that forewarned is forearmed holds good especially here, where a unified and highly disciplined Party conducts the economy of the nation in a planned and organized fashion. As little as possible l is left to chance and for every probl< tn there is a definite effort to bring about a solution. o D. W. Beery of Fort Wayne was a business caller here.
PEITAHO BETS OFFICIAL'S 0. K. ASRESORTTOWN One-time Missionary Controlled Area Now Thrives As Fashionable Center By D. C. Bess (United Press Staff Correspondent) Peiping, Aug. 7 —(UP) — Unde." the leadership of General Chang Hseuh-llang of Mukden and diplomats and businessmen from Peiping and Tientsin, the summer resort of Peitaho has stepped out th!’ summer as tho leading resort of North China, and the missionaries who founded the place have been compelled to take a back seat. The old-fashioned religious atmosphere ot Peitaho lias been modified io greatly that Sundays have .belonie much like other days, with residents openly indulging in bridge playing and* even in quaffing alcoholic drinks. Peitaho has grown so fast that the missionaries have been unabh to control visitors, as they did in the early days. At that time ’he Rocky Point Association, founded by missionaries, (stipulated that any person to whom property was sub-let should agree to observe Sunday as a complete day of rest, and should alistain from playing cards for money or drinking, liquors. Those days are gone forever in many parts of Peitaho. According to long-time residents, Peitaho was "discovered" as a summer resort by British engineers employed on the Peiping-Mukden railway. Missionaries may own land in China, however, while other foreigners generally may not, and missionaries developed Peitaho. They bought nfost of what is now known as Rocky Point, and formed their association. Merchants and otheia who would agree to behave themselves according to eany missionary ideas were given sub-leases. Not afterward some rebels developed an adjoining section, which was known as the “Sinners' Quarter” while Rocky Point was known as the ('Saints' Quarter." That was the beginning of the end of missionary domination. By 1900, when the Boxer uprising occurred, Peitaho had grown considerably. but the Boxers completely destroyed the place, tearing down houses ami breaking up furniture The whole place was in ruins. With restoration of order, Peitaho began to grow again. The German military adopted the place as

At* when the Germans withdrew, the Chinese bought the engines and trucks and removed the line for use in a mine. Now the Bukden railway has constructed n short line. In the early days, few Chinese went to Peitaho. But shortly afto.' the beginning of the World War, some Chinese officials bought German property there, and gradually the Chinese colony increased, until today they are u considerable part ot tho summer population. The missionary association, and other private associations which came later, have built roads, put in a small electric light plant, set up street lamps, and put in drains. But Peitaho has now complete))' outgrown these institutions, and there is not enough electricity to go around.
