One hot, summer day in far away
1929 was host at luncheon to a group
of about a dozen men in the old Wichita
Club, In Wichita, Kansas. These men were
the elite of the oil industry of Soviet
Russia, plus their aides, flunkies, inter-
prefers, and secret Communist police,
who always go along on such expeditions.
Some months before my firm had re-
ceived orders for fifteen oil-cracking stills
to be erected in the U.S.S.R in Grozny,
Tuapse. Batoum, Baku, and Yaroslav for
the Soviet Government.
There were present at this luncheon
Mr.. Ganshin, president of Soyuzneft, the
All Union Oil Trust. the president of Groz-
neft,- whose name cannot recall, and Mr.
Barinoff, president of Azneft at Baku, a
very large man with handle-bar mus
tache. Mr.. Barinoff told me to be sure and
come to see him at Baku When l came
to Russia year and half later Mr. Bari
noff was dead. shot by Stain, and Mr..
Ganshin was on trial for his life, to be
later shot,
During the period 1929, 80, and 81
number Of Russian engineers came to
Wichita to see us, and to be located in
various oil refineries for a course in
American refining practices. AS far as
could tell most of these men were subse-
quently shot or sent to Siberia
One man. little fellow by the name
of Hatchatouroff, after leaving Wichita to
return to Russia. found out in Germany
that he would be shot when he reached
home. so he came back to the US.A., and
to Wichita. In order to help him we gave
him job. but after few months, in the
spring of 1880, he either committed sui
eide. or was murdered by the Soviet Sc
cret Police, which unknown to most
people has operated in the United States
for thirty years. There is saying among
Communists that it is easier to commit
an artistic murder than an artistic suicide.
In other words many murders are made
to look like suicide, so we will never know
the truth about Hatchatouroff' S death in
Wichita
went to the U.S.S.R in 1880, and
found it land of hunger. misery, and
terror. The government detailed little
man by the name of Jerome Livshitz to
go around to our various installations with
me. Livshitz had taken part in the revo-
luton of 1905, and had spent twelve years
in the U.S.A. as a revolutionary, most of
the time in jails. Upon his return to
Russia, Livshitz had taken part in the
revolution of 1917 He was a hard-core
Communist. one of the old Bolsheviks,
and had tremendous power as everyone
feared him wherever we went.
In the months l Travelled with him he
gave me liberal education in Commun-
ist techniques and methods. He told me
how the Communists were going to infil-
trate the US.A. in the schools, universe
ties. churches. labor unions. government,
armed forces. and to use his words,
Make you rotten to the CORE believe
that due to his American experience he
was one of the original architects of the
Communist plan of subversion of the
U.S.A.
My associate and l pulled him from
was amazed. why did you save my
life?" he said. I'VE are enemies. would
not have saved yours. Perhaps when the
revolution comes to the US.A., and re-
turn there, will spare your lives" He
told me that if his own mother stood in
the way Of the revolution he would stran-
gle her with his bare hands. This is the
mark of hard-core Communist They will
do anything-anything Looking back over
span of thirty years it looks like Liv-
shifts plan of subversion is succeeding,
but he is not around to see it, as Stain
liqudated him, along with Zinovicv,
Kamenev, and other old Bolsheviks, in
1885,
Most people have very mistaken
idea of Communism. 1t is not a disease
of poverty-it is disease of the mind.
The Communist parties of the world are
directed and stated by middle-class in
tellectuals. not by people from the work
ing class. The typical American Commun-
ist would more nearly be portrayed by
graduate from All Ivy League college than
a graduate from the ranks of labor.
The three important branches of Com
munist philosophy arc
"a Historical Materialism
y, Dialectical Materialism
go Economic Deterlninism.
You will never understand Colnlnun-
ism until you understand these.
When you realize that these bibles of
Communist philosophy teach deceit. muir
der. lies. and treachery as the very basis
of the path to the Communist Utopia you
will realize the futility of trying to make
treaties with the U.SSR. as our own ex-
perence has proven time after time. Re-
