THE CHINA MAIL, SATURDAY, MARCH 25, 1950.
Moscow keeps up Flood control
the attack on Mr. Acheson
London, March 23.
The Soviet Communist Party newspaper "Pravda" today said that Mr. Dean Acheson, the United Stator Secretary of State, admitted in his speech of March 15 the advent of a new era, according to Moscow Radio.
"But while admitting this he advertises a policy aimed at reversing the wheel of events", the paper declared.
"Pravda" claimed that India: and the Philippines while allegedly independent were in fact subject to colonial' rule.
"The continuation of American reactionary colonising policy in Asia will inevitably bring about new failures and defeats " the Communist organ declared.
"Pravda" said that Mr. Ache- son made a slanderous attack on the Soviet Union, resorting to "the most abject lies", Answer- ing Mr. Acheson point by point the paper described as "lia No. 1" the statement that in 1945 the Soviet Army seized Manchurian property.
"Mr, Acheson forgets that the Red Army routed the Kwantung Japanese Army and captured Japanese war material as booty," "Pravda" sald,
"Lie No. 2" was the allegation made by Mr. Acheson that as a result of the re-valuation of the rouble China would not get the full share of the Soviet credit due to her under the Sino-Soviet agreement.
Mr. Acheson ogaln forgets that to ensure against a devalu- ation of the dollar the ARTCO- ment provides for credit of 300,- 000,000 gold dollars calculated ot the parity of 35 ounces of gold." "Pravda" continued, according
to Moscow Radio.
