SLAVE LABOUR IN THE SOVIET UNION
Geneva, August 15.
Britain today challenged the Kremlin to disprove hor charge that Soviet Russia had over 10 million slave labourers.
Mr. Carley Smith, the chief British delegate, told the United Nations Economic and Social Council that this estimate might be too low. In recent years there had been mass deporta. tions to Siberia and Central Asia from the Soviet Union's smaller nations.
The veil of secrecy that Russia had thrown round its [ slave camps no longer provid- ed a valid excuse for disbellef, he said.
"Not only is there available the testimony of numerous witnessos, but we have actual offelal Rus- stan documents to prove the caso."
Mr. Corley Smith "produced facsimile reproductions, transla- tions of official Soviet and East European decrees and other papers.
He told the delegates: "The old chuttel slavery is dying
out, whereas the modern system of forced labour is spreading. It has a different set of symbols, such as the nithy eattle trucks packed to suffocation with men and women, tho barbed wiro fence, the police car arriving at the dead of night and the vast concentration out across the frozen wastes of stretching Siberia."
