Soviet Lays Rumors Of War

Plots to Discredit Union
copyright, 1880, by International
Feature Service.)

BERLIN, Nov. 21-The Union
of Soviet Republics. struggling
through a morass Of economic,
political and social difficulties to
reduce to reality the aims and
ideals Of Nicolai nyavitch Lenin,
thus far has weathered internal
storms and external complica-
tionS.
: Today it is battling anew an
old enemy. It is running the
gauntlet Of anti -Bolshevistic pro-
pagal1da.
Plots Are RunOred
From hostile hot-beds Of ru-
NOR and hearSay throughout
Europe there is being spread a
grapevine Of anti-Soyiet reports,
ranging from serious disaffection
In the army to counter-revolution-
ary plots foStered by members Of
the government themselves and
conspiracies against the lives Of
Soviet leaders.
The Soviet government has de-
MED them all, or with Stinging
invective characterized them un-
worthy Of denials. .
But recalling the age-old adage
that where there is smoke there
is fire." competent international
observers have sought to pene-
trate, beneath the surface and
determine just what foundation
there may be for the sudden flood
Of rumor and report.
Three Big Events
Responsible and conservative
sections Of the German press dis
credit the reports, while all rcli.
able sources are unanimous in be-
lieving they are the work Of anti
Soviet propagandists. But even
the Soviets themselves do not pre-
tend that difficulties are non-
existent.
Three recent events are more or
less Symptomatic Of the Soviet
situation.
One is the recent indictment re-
turned by the Soviet attorney
general, N. v. Krilenko, against
eight prominent Soviet technical
directors, which alleged the exist
ence Of an international con-
spiracy to undermine the Boil
shevist regime which called for
the eventual invasion Of Russia by
European armies and the appor-
tionment Of her natural resources
between France, Britain, Poland
and Rumania.
