MOSCOW, Feb. 28-In connection
with. the arrest of the German aVia-
tor Count Won Bulow and DR.. Greg
DRY BUrtan by U. S. secret service
men on charges of counterfeitlng and
the subsequent attempt of the U. S.
imperialists to utilize the forgeries
for war provocation against the So
Wet Union, the Soviet newspaper
"Pravda" writes:
Fress Anti-UESR Drive.
THE arrest of adventures in the
forgery of banknotes which took place
in the United States has been stimuli
taneously caught up by New York
and Berlin reactionaries as the &C.
casion for a fresh anti-Soviet cam
paign. Both decided to utilize this
trivial criminal affair for the object
of high politics. 1t is superfluous to
point out that the actions of New
York officials and the secret police
who published false reports regard
ing connections of the spectators
Burtan and Bulow with the U.SS.R.
fully harmonic with the general
line Of the present American admin
.istration now leaving for good. The
latter, before handing over its bust
ness to its successor has no objection
to once more poisoning the atmos-
phere.
German Bosses Use Story.
I'm their turn, the German reae-
tionarieS conducting prediction
campaign with the aid Of unbridled
terror against tn e revolutionary
workers caught up the anti-Soviet
canard as a weapon which must fill
up the gaps in their pre- election
theological arsenal The newspapers
"Lokal Anzeiger" and "Angriff,' these
very little respected organs which are
facing failure In the entire affair,
continued a base campaign directly
attacking and slanderilg the Soviet
Government. Also, the 'Lokai An
zeiger" with the face OF religious
cheat, continued to utter sentences
regarding high political importance
of the activity of forgers."
Remember Forgeries.
at is interesting to watch how the
official organs of the National Social
lists and German Nationalist, taken
red-handed. will come out In their
foolish position. The number of
symptoms evoke certain suspicious.
Berlin's reactionary circles are known
since long ago as a workshop where
anti-Soyiet forged documents are
manufactured. The names of the
white guards Elagine Orlov and AT
share connected with these circles are
intimate bonds. Everyone still re-
members the famous protocol Of the
Politburo manufactured by the reac-
tionary Kreuzzeitung. Drujelovsky,
academician forged documents and
successfully pursued his occupation
In Berlin. One cannot but recall this
latter fact, especially at the present
moment.
Mad Cries.
"As is also known, bands of Bull
garian fascists at the time they mas
sacred Bulgarian toilers utilized the
forged documents of Drujelosky's
mastership on large scale. Now
when the German fascists and la9onv

Saint Bartholomew massacre" for
the German proletaFlat, their mad
cries against 'Moscovites, and utiljr
cation of absurd and stupid anti
Soviet inventions are not at all ac-
cidental.
THE possibility is far from exclud-
ed that the entire provocation is con-
cocted by them with the object OF
this campaign. Both of the forgers,
as the 'Lokal Anzeiger" asserts,
worked in Berlin in 1929. Evidently
they studied there high course Of
fabrication of forged documents, in
Guiding bank notes. The provocation
of the American spies and of the
Local Anzeiger" and the "Angriff"
has failed. Its counter-revolutionary
aims are clear. The toiling masses Of
Germany. the United States and the
whole world will be able to draw the
corresponding conclusions from this
fresh anti-Soviet sally"
