All Communists LOYAL
To Soviet Union, Army
Tells Commanders

The Army Department, in ex-
planning Russian geopolitics to SOL
diers, has declared that Com
munists everywhere conduct their
local affairs In conformance with
their basic loyalty to the Soviet
Union as the home of communism. :"
The statement is included in an
Armed Forces Talk" which is dis
trtbuted "for the use OF commanders
in informing their troops" The
department ruled sometime ago that
soldier membership in or affiliation
with the Communist Party is in
imical to the national security.
Calling the present world situation
plainly not happy one" the talk
states that, because of physical
characteristics, the Soviet Union
could prepare an attack in almost
any direction, toward Europe, China
and by air across the Polar regions"
Points to Disagreements.
1t declares disagreements arise
between the United States and the
Soviet Union because the tive ma
tions are now the two leading world
powers. internationally, it says,
Soviet leadership has a choice "be-
tween One World and Two Worlds"
Present Soviet foreign policy ap-
pears to lean heavily toward the
second choice" it adds.
The Army takes a hopeful note
when it says in the talk, the United
States has never accepted the idea
that war cannot be avoided.
The soldiers are told that, while
the Russians have plenty of oil, they
lack facilities for using it and that
the Soviet supply of uranium and
thorium-raw. materials for atomic
energy-is a Soviet secret.
Factors Favoring Soviet.
Factors that favor the continued
rise in power and influence of the
Soviet Union are it's huge land area,
large and youthful population, pow
erful land armies, its leadership of
international communism and its
energetic foreign policy" the talk
advises. Factors which at present
do not favor the Soviets are a back
ward and undeveloped industrial
system and a shortage Of people
trained in the skills needed to build
an industrial economy"
Space and climate have helped the
Russians defeat invaders In the past,
although great size can be unfavor-
able for military defense, the SOL
diers are told.
A sincere effort by the United
States and U. S. S. R. Ito settle their
disagreement would be an important
step toward an era of peace" the
talk concludes.
