HENRY ARMSTRONG SUFFERS
STROKE

One time triple boxing cham
pion Henry Armstrong, is re-
ported to have suffered a pa
ralytic stroke last week in his
Los Angeles home. A later re-
port announced his condition
as only fair.
Five years ago he was ordain-
ed a Baptist minister. He has
been active as an evangelist,
however, at non-denominational
churches and was president Of
the Henry Armostrong Youth
Foundation.
He won the featherweight
championship on Oct. 29, 1887,
the welterweight title May 81,
1888, and Aug. II of the same
year won the lightweight title.
After turning evangelist,
Armstrong came to Phoenix in

the cult of the individual decis-
lively. once and for all: we must
draw the proper conclusions con-
corning both ideological-theo-
reticaf and practical work.
It is necessary for this pur-
pose:
First. in a Bolshevik manner
to condemn and to eeradicate
the cult of the individual as
alien to Marxism-Leninism and
not consonant with the princi-
pies of party leadership and the
norms of party life. In this
connection we will be forced
to do much work. It Is espe-
cially necessary that in the inn
mediate future we compile a
serious textbook Of the history
of our party which will be edited
in accordance with scientific
Marxist objectiviSm. a textbook
of the history of Soviet society,
a book pertaining to the events
of the civil war and the great
patriotic war.
Secondly. to continue system
atically and consistently the
work done by the party's central
committee during the last years,
a work characterized by the
main principle of a collective
leadership, characterized by the
observation of the norms Of
party life described in the stat
utes of oru party. and finally.
characterized by the wide prac-
tice of criticism and Self-criti-
ciSm.

has happened sometimes that a
man goes to Stain on his invi-
tation as a friend. And when he
sits with Stain, he does not
know where he will be sent next,

1t is clear that such condi-
lions put every member of the
Political Bureau in a very difficult
situation. And when we also
consider the fact that in the
last years the Central Com
mittee plenary sessions were not
convened and that the sessions
of the Political Bureau occurred
only occasionally. from time to
time, then we will understand
how difficult it was for any
member of the Political Bureau
to take a stand against one or
another Unjust or improper
procedure. against serious errors
and shortcomings in the prac-
tees Of leadership.
One of the oldest members of
our party. Kliment Yefremovich
Voroshilov, found himself in an
almost impossible situation.
Because of his extreme suspi-
cion, Stain toyed with the
absurd and ridiculous suspicion
that Voroshiloy was an English
agent. Laughter in the hall. }
It's true-an English agent. A

smaller. Such mobilization had
not been. however. started in
time.
Moss production Of tonks held up
despite peril from Germans.
Soviet science and technology
produced excellent models OF
tanks and artillery pieces before
the war. But mass production
of all this was not organized and
as a matter of fact we started
to modernize our military equip
ment only on the eve of the war.
I recall that in those days I
telephoned to Comrade Malenkov
from Kiev and told him, people
have volunteered for the new
army and demand arms. You
must send us arms"
Malenkov answered me, I'VE
cannot send you arms. We are
sending all our rifles to Lenin-
grad and you have to arm your
selves" Movement in the hall.)
Such was the armament situa-
ton.
When the Fascist armies had
actually invaded Soviet territory
and military operations began,
Moscow issued the order that the
German fire was not to be re-
turned. Why? 1t was because
Stain, despite evident facts,
thought that the war had not yet
started, that this was only a
provocative action on the part of
several undisciplined sections of
the German army, and that our
reaction might serve as a rea-
son for the Germans to begin the
war.
The following fact is also
known. On the eve Of the in
vasion of the territory of the
Soviet Union by the Hitherto
army a certain German citizen
crossed our borders and stated
the German armies had received
orders to start the offensive
against the Soviet Union on the
night % June at o'clock. Stain
was informed about this i'm
mediately, but even this warning
was ignored.
AS you see, everything was ig-
nored; warnings of certain army
commanders. declarations of de-
serters from the enemy army,
and even the open hostility Of
the enemy. Is this an example
of the alertness of the chief of
the party and of the state at
this particularly significant his
torical moment?
And what were the results of
this carefree attitude. this dis
regard of clear facts? The result
was that already in the first
hours and days the enemy had
destroyed in our border regions
a large part of our air force, ar
tillery and other military equip
ment; he annihilated large
numbers of our military cadres
and disorganized our military
leadership; consequently we
could not prevent the enemy
from marching deep into the
country. =.
After this Stain for a long
time actually did not direct the
military operations and ceased
to do anything whatever. He re-
turned to active leadership only
when some members of the
political bureau visited him and
told him that it was necessary
to take. certain steps immedi-
ately in order to improve the
situation at the front.
FouIts Of Russio's eorIy war
effort bIomed on StoIin per-
sonolly.
Therefore, the threatening
danger which hung over our
fatherland in the first period of
the war was largely due to the
faulty methods of directing the
nation and the party by Stain
himself.
However. we speak not only
about the moment when the war
began. which led to serious dis

we're boseIess.
A large part Of these cases are
being reviewed now and a great
part Of them are being voided be-
cause they were baseless and
falsif1ed.
Facts prove that many abuses
were made on Stains orders
without reckoning with any
norms Of party and Soviet legal
ity. Stain was a very distrustful
man, sickly suspicious; we knew
this from our work with him. He
could look at a man and say:
why are your eyes so shifty
today?" or why are you turn
ing so much today and avoiding
to look me directly in the eyes?"
The sickly suspicion created in
him a general distrust even to-
ward eminent party workers
whom he had known for years.
Everywhere and in everything
he saw enemies" "two-facers"
and "spies."
Possessing unlimited power,
he INDUCED in great willfulness
and choked a person morally and
physically. A situation was Gre
ated where one could not express
ones own will.
When Stain said that one or
another should be arrested, it
was necessary to accept on faith
that he was an enemy of the
people," Meanwhile. Beria's
gang, which ran the organs of
state security, outdid itself in
proving the guilt of the arrested
and the truth of materials which
it falSified. And what proofs
were offered? The confessions
of the arrested, and the investi-
gative judges accepted these
confessions"

after the war began, the nervous
ness and hysteria which Stain
demonstrated, interfering with
the actual military operations,
caused our army serious damage.
will allow myself In this con-
nection to bring out one charac-
teristic fact which illustrates
how Stain directed operations
at the fronts. There is present
at this. congress Marshal
Bagramyan who was once the
chief of operations in the head
quarters of the southwestern
front and who can corroborate
what / will tell you.
When there developed an ex-
ceptionally serious situation for
our army in 1912 in the Kharkov
region, we had correctly decided
to drop an operation whose OBJ
jective was to encircle Kharkov,
because the real situation at
that time would have threatened
our army with fatal con-
sequences If this operation were
continued.

slav leaders did not make mis-
takes or did not have shortcom-
ings. But these mistakes and
shortcomings were magnified in
the monstrous manner by Stain.

But this did not happen to
Tito. No matter how much or
how little Stain shook. not only
his little finger but everything
else that he could shake, Tito
did not fall. Why? The, reason
was that. in this case Of dis
agreement with the YugoSlav
comrades, Tito had behind him a
state and a people who had gone
through a severe school Of Tight
ing for liberty and independence,
a people which gave support to
its leaders.
Womon's letter set off doctor

Let us also recall the affair
of the doctor-plotters." (Anima-

declaration of the woman doctor
Timashuk. who was probably in
huenced or ordered by someone
(after all, she was an unofficial
collaboration of the organs of
state security to write Stain a
letter in which she declared that
doctors were applying supposedly
methods of medical
treatment.
Shortly after the doctors were
arrested we members Of the
Political Bureau received proto-
coils with the doctors; confess
sions of guilt. After distributing
these protocols Stain told us,
you are blind like young kit
tens; what will happen without
ME? The country will perish be-
cause you do not know how to
recognize enemies"
We felt. however, that the
case of the arrested doctors was
questionable. We knew some of
these people personally because
they had once treated us. When
we examined this lease" after
Stalin's death, we found it to be
fabricated from beginning to

In organizing the various dirty
and shameful cases, q very base
role was played by the rabid enc

ria, who had stolen into Stains
confidence. In what way could

Khrushehev issues demand 70
end to cult Of individual

Gnu 10 CUT OF InuIVluuut.
Comrades!
The cult of the individual has
caused the employment of faulty
principles in party work and in
economic activity; it brought
about rule violation of internal
party and Soviet democracy,
sterile administration, deviations
of all sorts, covering up of short
comings and vanishing of real
ity. Our nation gave birth to
many flatterers and specialists in
false optimism and deceit
Comrades!
If we sharply criticize today
the cult of the individual which
was so widespread during Sta
Inns life and if we speak about
the many negative phenomena
generated by this cult which is
so alien to the spirit of Marxism-
Leninism, various persons may
ask: How could it be? Stain
headed the party and the coun-
try for 80 years and many VIC
tories were gained during his
lifetime. Can we deny this? In
my opinion. the question can be
asked in this manner only by
those who are blinded and hope
lessly hypnotized by the cult of
the individual. only by those who
do not understand the essence
of the revolution and of the So
Wet state, only by those who do
not understand, in a feminist
manner, the role Of the party
and of the nation in the develop
ment of the Soviet society. .
Khrushchev asks the 64-rubIe
question: Where we're we?
Some comrades may ask us:
Where were the members of the
Political Bureau of the Central
Committee? Why did they not
assert themselves against the
cult of the individual in time?
And why is this being done only
now?
First of all we have to con-
slider the fact that the members
Of the Political Bureau viewed
these matters in a different way
at different times. Initially,
many Of them backed Stain ac-
lively because Stain was one of
the strongest Marxists and his
logic. his strength and his will
greatly influenced the cadres
and party work
In the situation which then
prevailed I have talked often
