No one can rival him in personal magnetism in widespread popular reputation, in capacity for inspiring prolonged ova ber of the inmost Communist ruling tions. That Trotzky to day is not a mem-

Stalin has always been a power behind the throne in the Russian Communist Party. In pre-revolutionary days, when most of the Party leaders were abroad in exile. Stalin superintended the work of the Party in Russia.

"Leo Kamenev, third member of Com-1 munist Party triumvirate of leaders that also includes Stalin and Zinoviev, is a brother-in-law of Trotzky.

"A stout man of medium height, with spectacles and a pointed professorial beard of moderate dimensions, Kamenev suggests a savant rather than a revolu tionary leader when one sees him presid ing over a formal meeting of the Moscow Soviet, of which, he is a President In his capacity as one of Russia's three Vice- Premiers the other two were Rykov and Tsurupa-Kaménṇy. has taken on his shoulders an increasing share of the general administrative work of the Soviet Government.

"In the stormy early days of the Re- volution a foreigner had business of a sufficiently pressing nature to rant an interview with the head of the Chekha, or secret police. Ushered into a room he found hiraself-face-to face with a fair man, with furrowed countenance and deepest blue eyes, seting on a chair, his feet thrust into slippers. Within easy reach stood a machine-gun. After the effect of this somewhat starling introduction had worn off-Dierzhinsky explained the reason for his attire, re- marking with a half-apologetic emile: You see, I never stir out of the office.

Liberated by the overthrow of the Tsarist regime, this Polish revolutionist return- ed to become one of the great activa figures of the Soviet regime.
