STALIN DOESN'T : MAKE LIGHT OF ITHORNSINPATH Realizes Obstacles Faced by Russia in Seeking Socialism Goal. v Uil.r'i Note—Tbl* Is one of s series •I articles on the economic condition of the Soviet nnion. BY EUGENE LYONS Culled Press Staff Corrrsoondeat MOSCOW, July 31.—Joseph Stalin, reflecting in this respect the attitude of Russian Communists as a whole, did not attempt in his speech before the Communist party congress to make light of the obstacles which obstruct the tedious road to Socialism on which his country is traveling. On the contrary, he disclosed them as sharply .possible, without underestimating their menace. But —and in this again ne ran true to Bolshevik form—he did not permit a note of despair to inject itself into i the process. I Every additional obstacle he teemed to regard as another stiml. ation for the zeal and daring of Jus people. Create New Industry Among the principal problems he places that of technical personnel, Russia fast is creating a series of new industries and fast transferring its agriculture to an industrial basis. It must provide leadership, engineers, agronomists, technicians, experts of a hundred kinds, and it must do so at an unprecedented speed. Imported leadership can be depended upon to some extent, but It is too expensive. To a large extent, he showed, that problems may be said to apply to the whole industrial personnel, including the lowest grades of workers. Transition Is Abrupt The transition from primitive methods of work to the most modernized has been so abrupt that the workers and peasants are far from adjusted to it. An undue proportion of tractors and other farming machines arc spoiled 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 Boviet man-power. The requalification of millions is the daring task set before the Soviet land by its leader. Sees Need of Morale The internal problems of factory operation under socialized control—that is to say. In the absence of 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, while at the same time maintaining the necessary measure of workers' control. The morale of the workers must be raised as a means for achieving higher productivity of labor and eliminating waste.

Bu United Brest NIDARO, Norway, July 31.—The 900th anniversary of the introduction of Christianity into Norway was celebrated in the ancient cathedral of Nidaros Wednesday with ceremonies at which Lauritz Swenson, American minister to Norway, and C.
