THESE DAYS

ID USSIA, an ever-growing
N region in area and popula-
ton, is the most imperialistic
and colonizing country.
Soviet Russia enjoys an ad-
vantage over Great Britain in
that all territories that are
incorporated in her empire are
contiguous, producing a land
mass that gives the impression
of being a single country. Her
gains out of this war are Of
the same character.
The Russian region consists
not only of Soviet Russia which
is a federation Of IL Soviet re-
publics, but also Of the Karelo
Finnish, the Moldavian, the
Lithuanian, the Latvian, the
Esthonian Soviet republics. all
of which represent conquests
in this war.
In addition. Mongolia. FIVE
northern provinces OF Iran. the
Chinese Communists. the revo-
lutionary forces in Sinkiang are
very closely associated with
Soviet Russia.
Also as a result Of the Teheran
and Yalta agreements, Romania,
YugoSlavio. CZecho Slovakia,
Bulgaria. Austria, Hungary and
eastern Germany are now either
under Soviet control or sffili-
ated with the Russian region.
CTARTTNG with an area OF
~ 100000 square miles and
a population Of 1S3. .0OO. 900 peo-
pie, the Russian region today
probably includes as many as
200. 200, 900 persons-it Is hard
10 estimate exactly because no
body knows how many were
killed or have died of starva-
ton in these countries.
In addition 10 its territorial
growth, Soviet Russia is in pos
session of the most effective in
ternational apparatus ever de-
vised by any country-the Third
International, sometimes called
the comintern.
This is the universal organi-
zation Of the Communist party
which exists in every country,
consisting Of natives of each
country who believe in Marxist-
feminist economic and political
principles and who accept the
leadership of Stain with fanat-
ical fidelity.
Although the Third Interna-
tional was formally abolished in
1943. recent evidence in every
country proves conclusively
that II Is still a functioning and
disciplined organization, re-
spending Immediately and effec-
lively to Stains orders.
THUS, in addition TO the nor
Il nal methods Of imperialism.
namely the accretion of terri
tory and control of administra-
tion, Soviet Russia possesses
this unique power TO influence
public opinion and even to gain
political power in countries
which are not part Of the Rus
