How Slalin Misdirects Soviet Five-Year Plan * * * « * * Isaac Don Levine, Authority on Russia, Describes How Dictator Is Trying to Crowd Century Os Progress Into Five Short Years . X btvi NE Ohww i I 'T Wvs ! Thf.'YEAP PtAM IM (OT'F.PaTION In vivid, realistic fashion Isaac Don Levine (upper right), noted authority on Soviet Russia, its leaders, institutions and life, has painted an unforgetable picture in his book, “Stalin,” of how the dictator of all the Russians (upper left), is striving to crowd a century of progress into five short years. The book, a modern, absorbing treatise on the workings of the Five-Year Plan, outlines in detail the shortcomings in the plan of Stalin to build a great empire out of unskilled and terrorized labor while sacrificing their necessities in order to bring closer a fancied realization of the over-ambitious scheme. Center photo shows a modern factory in Moscow employing numerous Sovi* t workmen. While Mr. Levine takes cognizance of these modern innovations in Russia, he explains that they were only made through thf instrumentality of American engineers and that actually Russian • borers cannot operate them successfully.

By Isaac Don Levine (Editors Note: Mr. Levine is a we.l known correspondent and author whose “Stalin," the first biogiaphy of the Soviet dictator to be published in America, has just been issued). Stalin is conducting the Five-Year-Plan the way a generalissimo conducts a war. The battle-line is the industrial front. The enemy is capitalism. The method is .forced marches. The success or failure of Stalin’s campaign depends more upon economic backbone, more upon capital resources than upon enthusiasm and challenging propaganda. When Stalin orders the sale of the pep, raises the prices o'n all elimentary commodities 5b per cent, it is not planning. It is sign of distress. It t. like mobilizing invalids to rein-: force a wavering fr-’nt When Stalling orders the sale of priceless Rembrandt that had been preserved in the great Hermitage Museum in Leningrad during thirteen years of revolutionary turmoil it is an omen of misfortune. The Five-Year-Plan- did not provide for such sales. HAVc TO STAND IN LINE Stalin is selling grain abroad. The Russians have to stand in line until after midnight to get bread. Stalin is exporting, sugar to Persia, while his people go without sugar. Stalin is compelled to dump his country's prime necessities abroad below cost in order to meet bills for foreign machinery. He is erecting industrial pyramids but his builders get paid in depreciated curtency which has little purchasing power. This is not according to the Five-Year-Plan. This is war. It is not rational economy. Every vein is bled to achieve one objective. Its an adventure, not a strategic campaign.

i Stalin even adopted the method I 'the Red Armythe employment oil ■ former enemies, Czarist military ex- ■ perts, as officers and chiefs of staff. 1 Stal.n is hiring the bated capitalists, American industrial experts, 1 and paying them high salaries to Iconduct the war on the economic ' I front. Ant if is easier to fight than to build. It is one thing to destroy i life. It is anolier to create life. Trot-1 sky was a victorious war lord. He proved a failure as Commissar | ot Railways when Lenin asked him j. to restore the chaotic transportai tio.i system. CANNOT MAKE THEM PAY Stalin can import engineers and ma. hine.y, and erect huge plants with the aid of Russian unskilled labor. Stalin and his dictatorship | cannot make these plants function on a paying basis in the hands of un .k.lled labor and of terrorized Russian engineers. American experts will draw plans That is the only valuable part of i the Bolshevik Five-Year-Plan. The ,i Stalin dictatorial machine and the I Russian backwardness cannot fail I to render sucli plans inoperative. Stalin would transform the sick-| .! ly peasant horse into an iron steed. I He would change the bleak Russian ! Into a flourishing Pennsylvania. But llt cannot bo done by forced , marches. No more than the United j States of 1830 could have been rhe-1 tamorphosed by a formula into that .'of lU3O can Stalin's distatonship I leap a century ahead in five years. o Arkansas Radish Crop Good J Paragould, Ark. •U.R; The larg- .

WOMAN MAYOR GOVERNS WITH DIRECT ACTION Oldest U. S. Feminine Executive Wields Effective Axe Pacific Grove. Calif. — (UP) — Mayor Julia B. Platt. 73, oldest woma i mayor in the United Staten. ; may rule this seaside community | with scientific logic ami she may 'title it wilh a crusading axe. Site smilingly admitted today that though she regards the task of city government a« just another seienIti.ic problem, she has known the ’ | expediency of direct action and . would not hesitate again to employ ] : it. She referred to two occasions: ] | Once when she protested against , ian attempt to aggrandize public! I beach property for private gain by ' .maslrtig a bathouse barrier witli ' lan axe; another time when she urged beautification of a scenic -spot and. failing to get quick action, li d a crew of volunteers with spades and wheelbarows until the littered spot was ( leaned and planti ed in flowers. Practical Biology Miss Platt was a practising bloke i cist in Germany and Naples before settling here 31 years ago. "My training in the laboratory," | she said. "Gave me a fondness for a problem. I find this training very valuable on this new job. I hope to work out this town's problems as I would any arising in the laboratory Sometimes that can't be done: then we'll try something else,” She laughed. She ran for mayor site said, beause politicians were threatening to undermine her favorite reform, the city manager form of government established here four years ago, mainly through her efforts. Staunch Ht.manitarian She doesn’t mind seeing anyone take a drink, but hates to see anyI one get drunk. She doesn't object II > women smoking, though she feels I it is unhealthy in excess. She is a i .launch humanitarian and her arch- ■ hate is tiie "eye-for-an eye" theory i of punishment.
