MOSCOW, Mar. 11.-Pravda
declared today that Winston
Churchilps proposal for a Brit
ish-American military alliance
would liQuidate the United Ma
tions, end the coalition of three
big powers and bring a return to
power politics.
The Communist party newspaper
also accused the former British
Prime Minister of trying to incite
war against the Soviet Union.
Breaking the Russian editorial
silence on Mr.. Churchill's March 5
speech, the three-column front-page
editorial asserted it had been fail
ure, adding:
mo false speeches about democ-
racy and freedom by convinced re-
actoinaries such as Churchill and
his American friends from the VAN
denberg camp will succeed in draw
ing people onto the road to new
wars being prepared for them"
Oratorical Art Modified.
The newspaper said Mr.. Churchill
had modified his whole arsenal of
oratorical art" to put over his point,
but had only succeeded in reveal
ing himself as out of step with the
times.
zone must unwillingly recall the
Churchill of the period after World
War T." Pravda said. Then, it,
said, he was the "nitiator of an
anti-Soviet campaign and the prin-
cipal organizer of armed interven-
ton against, the Soviet Union"
During the war, Pravda said, Mr..
Churchill pretended to be friend
of the Soviet people" but now that
the danger was over he was revealing
his real feelings" and was "gallop-
ing on his old horse" again.
Liquidation of UNO.
Pravda said that by his proposal
for creation of a British-American
military alliance Mr.. Churchill
frankly states that this military
alliance must be directed against
the u. S. S. r., against that power
which bore on its shoulders the main
burden of the struggle and played
a decisive role in the defeat of Hit
lerite Germany.
"But a military alliance Of two
participants Of a coalition against a
third signifies the liquidation of the
coalition of the three great powers
formed during the course Of the Sec
ond world war.
"He openly proclaims power poll
tics which must be realized by an
Anglo-American military alliance.
To whom is it not clear that all
of this, as a matter of fact, means
nothing else than the liquidation
of the United Nations Organiza-
ton?
$50 with another stroke he settles
with an organization which he in
his capacity of an ardent defender
championed"
Pravda said Mr.. Churchill's pro-
posal amounted to plan for Brit
ish-American rule of the world
behind the back of the UNO."
On Uncle Sans COattails.
The former Prime Minister real
lied that he lacked the power to
carry out such preaching plans,
Pravda said, and therefore con-
vulsively grabs at the coattails of
Uricle SAM" while remembering
that his first postwar experience in
speculating on the Red danger
during the parliamentary elections"
in England had brought him
severe defeat.
Pravda, which is the organ of the
Central Committee of the Com
munist party, also printed on its
back page, customarily devoted to
foreign news, the entire text of Mr.
Churchill's speech.
The newspaper also carried Presi-
dent Truman's press conference
statement that he did not read the
speech beforehand.
Publication of the editorial and
text came on the eve of the meet
ing of the Supreme Soviet tomor-
row.

which was broadcast by the Mos
COW radio, Churchill tried to i'm
press the idea that a new war isl
inevitable. More than that, he in
cites people to this war and, namely,
to war against the Soviet Union"
Pravda asserted Mr.. Churchill
