Lenin knew nothing about atomic
energy, which upsets all his no
tions of “matter.” Marx’s pre
dictions about the “inevitable” de
velopment of capitalism have not
been sustained by events, as the
Soviet economist, Yevgenij Vargo,
pointed out and for which he was
purged.
World War II did not develop
according to Stalin's anticipations;
and the Soviet system has not
freed the country of cyclic prob
lems arising from imbalance be
tween production of consumers'
goods capital goods, and savings
—as Voznesensky admits in the
same book.
The Soviet-Communist mind is
simple to inanity and for that rea
son dangerous. The iron curtain
between west and east is a result
of an iron curtain in the Soviet
mind.

The Berlin blockade issue comes
oefore the United Nations secur
ity council again today. There was
no indication either side would
yield.
In another section of the world
peace agency, acting Palestine
mediator Ralph Bunche said “the
■ime is ripe for a settlement” in
ihe Holy Land. lie said he believes 1
' both sides would accept a reason
able U. N. peace proposal.
Communist-led strikes and
threats of strikes harassed France
and Italy. A thousand auto work- i
ers barricaded themselves in a
Bordeaux plant while 335,000 1
French coal miners stayed idle for ;
the 12th day. Italian communists
threatened a nationwide general
strike.
Athens newspapers said the gov
ernment will announce Sunday
that Greek communists killed
George Polk, American broadcast
, er, and tried to blame the Greek
government.
Emperor Hirohito invested Shi
geru Yoshida, an ultra conserva
tive, as prime minister of Japan.
Chinese communists captured
Chinhsien, anchor of the national
ist position in Manchuria. Chiang
Kai-Shek flew to Peiping to be
nearer.
i Russia claimed her industrial
production is 26 per cent higher
than the record year of 1940 and
that grain production also tops
that year. However, Moscow gave
no specific figures. A minister
who failed to produce enough
meat and milk was fired.
As the U. N. debated again the
Berlin crisis, Gen. Lucius D. Clay,
the American military governor,
was disclosed to have declared
that “Soviet expansion will not
; only be halted, it will recede,” if
the western powers continue their
firm stand in the German city.
He said lasting peace can be at
I tained only if the western powers
refused to yield to the Soviets.
Clay called the Berlin blockade “a
starvation measure.” He said Rus
sia blocked efforts of the west to
buy food for Berlin from the Iron
Curtain countries of Czechoslo
vakia and Poland.
German communists in the Rus
sian zone said widespread “anti
Soviet elements” have been found
in their ranks. They demanded a
purge. Western power adherents
saw this as added evidence of po
litical and economic unrest in the
Russian zone.
The Russians have admitted the
west’s counter-blockade, imposed
after the Berlin tie-up, is squeez
ing and that industrial production
is falling short of goals. Food was
so scarce in the zone earlier this
year the Russians had to import
grain from the Soviet Union. The
communists also have hod to form
a huge “people’s police” and con
duct frequent drives against non
communists.
Bunche told the U. N. the pres
ent truce in Palestine is precari
ous, but that it is un'hinkable that

Kuan, said Israel would be ready
t > enter a detailed discussion on
he Bernadotte settlement report

! table with the Jews, contending
