One day last week Sun Stalin stood refulgent atop the Red Square tomb of Lenin and more than 1,750,000 Soviet citizens marched past him carrying flags and banners.

Thus he acquaints us with the opinions of many persons less articulate than he, and the discussion of his essays among imperfectly educated people whose occupations...

In the 20-year Soviet period now closing, Observer Lyons was in Russia during the period of six years which saw: the ending of the NEP (New Economic Policy) of Lenin; the expulsion of Trotsky; Stalin's economic regimentation of the Soviet Union by a policy of Five-Year Plans; and the ensuing industrialization and collectivization...
