SOVIET SPY SYSTEM.
AN EXPENSIVE SERVICE.
The Soviet State Budget Commission has approached the All-Russian Executive Committer recommending that the ex- penditure of the State Political Depart ment (Cheka should be greatly curtailed as the financial position of the Govern meds makes it impossible for so beavy a burden to be borne...
Particular attention is drawn to the huge sums paid to the State Political Department in gold "for disbursement ubrozd When the Soviet trade missions were created, efforts were made by the Cheka to establish a system of espionage in foreign countries. These efforts' failed, for too much hope had been pland on the assistance of fernign Communists, and Inter efforts were also fruitless Last May the Soviet Government impressed upon the Cheka that no further time should be last in organizing an elaborato system of espionage abroad. "New and more capable, men worn selected, and the State Political Department ensured itself against any mistakes by marking down the closest relations of these agents as hostages,
Since then the Soviet Government has maintained an extremely costly secret service abroad, with a chief bureau in Berlin" and agencies in all the other capitals of Europe. Their chief work is to report on the activitica of anti- Bolshevist organizations.Timer.
