The facts, as confirmed from Moscow, are that ruthless Comrade Josef Stalin is deliberately robbing the Russian market of things that Russians want to buy, in order to sell those things abroad and reap foreign capital. Thus correspondents humorously described a recent paper famine" in Moscow, although the Soviet Monopoly was even then shipping paper to Persia in thumping shipload lots.
