Reds Definition of Democracy

MOSCOW, Mar. 20.-Secretary of
State Marshall's definition Of the
American conception Of democracy
before the Council of Foreign Min
isters has brought this ancient
Greek word into clinical examina-
ton here.
Some persons have called for a
Russian definition, suggesting that
one of the great points of the peace
making depends on acceptance OF
definition.
If a citizen from Russia and a
citizen from the United States
and this could include two of the
principles of the Foreign Ministers
Conference, Gen. Marshall and
v. M. Molotov-were put In the

about democracy they might dis

Marshall's Definition.
Gen. Marshall, said ITO us a So
ciety is not free if law abiding cit
liens live in fear of being denied
the right to work or deprived OF
life, liberty and the pursuit OF hap
piness."
He went on to stress the impor-
lance of free competitive elections
"free autonomous trade unions,
free press, radio, films, theater and
music and civil liberties in the
American idea Of democratic
society. ~,>
The Soviet press on two consecu-
tive days has mildly attacked the
secretary of state concerning this
definition. The Soviet newspapers
have cited the situation in Greece
and the position of the American
Negro as examples of flaws in the

way the American 1dea is carried
out.
The Soviet Encyclopedia of 1896
uses 776 words in defining the So
Wet idea of democracy.
Democracy with capitalism is
capitalistic democracy, a democra-
cy of an exploiting minority direct
ed against a majority" this ency-
clopedia sets forth.
Exploiters Suppressed"
Soviet democracy is a super form
Of democracy, real democracy. It
is not democracy in the texts OF
its constitution, but in the business
of life. It does not exploit anybody
as does the democracy of other
classes, but with its dictatorship
suppresses the exploiters smashed
by the proletarian revolution"
The Soviet Encyclopedia says fur
ther that "a democracy is purely
class conception undeniably con-
nected with the dictatorship of one
or the other class"
The encyclopedia adds that the
only concrete democracies" in his
tory are the "slave owners (antique
democracy, feudal, bourgeois which
exist and EXPLOIT, and, on the other
hand, Soviet democracy for the
broad masses of workers exclusive
