Denying that Marshall Aid aims at the capitalist control of needy countries, he said: "We do not want to dictate the politics of any recipient nation. Our unswerving ideals for peace put this responsibility upon us all. We want to make peace-loving nations strong and prosperous."

He ridiculed promises of eco- nomic security offered on So- viet principles. "Social security and forced inbour are the very opposite of each other." he said. "When labour Is not free to forge the weapons for its Im- provement there is no security."
