REGIME OF STAIN
TO HAVEL0NG RULE
But Government Is Held to Be
a Disadvantage to Rus
sian People.
BY PAUL MARION.

THIS is the last of q series OF sepen
articles in which Paul Marion, for
eioht Years an outstanding figure in
the French Communist party and
chief of the political agitation and
propaganda section, tells Of his dis
iLlustonnent after rs months in
Soviet Russia What he found IN ?
Russia led him to resign from his
pdrtV. In these articles he describes
iDIdt he found.
PARIS. october IL (N.AN.A) Tt is
only since 1923 or 1924. in fact, the
great Trotsky rebellion, that the main
body of Russian Communists, headed
by the leaders of the revolution of Octo-
Der, 1917, have begun to doubt the sue
cess of their work and have considered
the possibility of the failure Of the
revolution.
It is curious to note that it is from
that very period, five or six years ago,
that Russia has been stabilized ruble,
has seen the ending of civil war and
of foreign military complications and
the suspension of the military, economic
and financial blockade, with the result
that Soviet policy has been able to
function freely and clearly to show
what 1t was worth.
So long as eXtraneouS events interior
benefited by a sort of atmosphere of
socialist mysticism created by decades
OF revolutionary propaganda and by the
effects of the great year 1917. The re-
suit was that a great proportion OF pub
lie opinion and even many Of their for
mer opponents afforded them unstnted
support. -
I'VE were dying of hunger and cold,
but we were moving toward new

social organism We were going 70
aStonish the world"
Different Views.
These words were spoken to me by an
engineer, who has since become an
antf-Communist. The underlying idea
of his remarks was repeated to me by
crowds of workmen, of humble people OF
all kinds, of civil servants and even OF
full-hedged members OF the Communist
party, who, angry and disabused, cher
ish in the privacy of their homes
thoughts quite different from those they
utter in their Offices or at the meetings
Of their cells"
This spirit of mysticism was not dissi-
pated until 1925 or 1925, when the
problem of the economic development
Of the country along socialistic lines be-
gan to be acute after the Communists
fishing the wrecked industrial undertak-
ings.
It then became apparent with increas-
ing clearness that the bureaucracy Of
the Communist party and of the Soviets
had created a very heavy, expensive and
paralyzing system of production, which
could exist only by destroying admins
tratively every kind Of commercial and
industrial competition. And this in spite

Aone. Here is something entirely different.
Never have you been offered the new develop
ment - as we are now doing - Quality such

The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1929-03-29

Remember, this tire is an entirely new deve1-
opment - unlike any other tire on the mar
ket.It has been through the hardest tests ever
given tire. For months the Miller Test Fleet
has driven it over Southwest Texas roads
the toughest roads in the country 49, averag-
ing SIS miles per hour - 600 miles per day.
Despite this gruelling test - they have been
unable as yet to find the limits of this great
tires endurance. They have driven it more in
80 days than you will drive it in IL months.
Think what that means to you in mileage and
final economy.
