hopes discussed the composition Of the

vention for 1890 to have been the following:
According to the information received
from White Russian enigre circles through
the INTERPRETATION of Paltchinsky and Fyedo-
TOW, and direct from Ryabuchinsky through
| RannSin, as also from the Trade and Indus
trial Committee through the agency of RAM
sin and Laritchev. the negotiations between
the enigres and the French government, as
leader of the intervention, as also the nego-
tiations with the English government, jirs-
| titled the expectation of the possibility OF
| the actual preparation and CARRYING out
of the intervention by about 1890. This term
was therefore decided out of political and
military considerations"
The motive therefore, was the realization
| that it would be impossible to have the arm
ed. forces Of the intervention ready by am
earlier date
TN 1923" states LaricheV - "wa re-
ceiVed notice from the Trade and Industrial
Committee that the intervention was post
poned probably until $780, AT the time when
visited Paris with Ranlsin and conferred
with the Trade and Industrial Committee
I learned that the complications of the rS~-
hticaI situation abroad, above all. the doubts
policy pursued by Germany which was fac
ing both ways at once, and the attitude
adopted towards Poland by Lithuania made
open action against the Soviet Union in
opportIlle at this juncture. Nevertheless, the
representative of the French general staff.
JoinvHI, as also Denisov, assured Ransin in
a personal interview that the attitude Of the
French government remained UNCHANGED with
respect to the support to be lent the inter-
vention, and that the French general staff
was energeticaIy continuing the work of
strengthening the military forces Of Poland
and Runania. An expeditionary corps of
White Guard enligre forces was being formed
and prepared. The leadership of these ac-
tlv1ties was again in the hands of the French
general staff (the commission conducted by
Jarin) and suitable material and financial
means, supplied chiefly by the French minis
try of war, were available. General Lukonl-
sky was to be the leader of the expedition
airy corps" Statement made the 18th of
October)
The sabotagers too were inclined to be in
favor OF this postponed term, but for other
reasons. Ranasin continues:
Under the natural conditions imposed by
Ile ueFelopmenG OF national economy and
the realization of the Five-Year Plan. the
year OF operation 1929-1930, as the middle of
the FIve-Year Plan, will be the most diff
cult, for in this year it will be necessary to
put great strain on national economic
means for fresh investments in building work
whilst at the same time the profits from
these investments cannot yet be great enough
to have any effect. The difficulties of the
situation in 1880 would be further enhanced
by the inevitable difficulties of the advance
OF the collectivization of agriculture, so that
the Industrial Party cherished the hope that
the food supply irregularities, combined with
the extreme discomfort of broad masses of
the peasantry and the growing dissatisfac-
ton OF wide strata of the population, would
accomplish the rest.
"Hence, the Industrial Party considered
1880 to The the most favorable for counter
revolutionary upheaVaI (a) on account of the
military political considerations with resnect
to the Intervention; (b) for the reason that
the Soviet national economy would be pass
ing through period of great difficulty; (c)
because broad masses Of the populatinu
would be plunged into discomfort by the eco-
nomic difficulties" Ramzin. october 31J
