When suc- cess came to the Communists in the autumn of 1917, Stalin was an efficient and active official, not in the front ranks with the giants, like Lenin, Trotzky, and Zinoviev, but close behind.
He made a big success of his first great administrative post, that of Commissar for the Outer Nationalities. When the Communista took control of Russia they declared as part of their programine the policy of the right to self-determination for the different nationalities forming the old Russian Empire. But when they came to build up new Russia, they found that it would be disastrous to allow the many nations, small and large to set up The Kerelians as independent States. might have declared themselves free, the up their Republic, and Ukrainians set even the Orinda, on the Mongolian bor der, their own State.

It was doubtful, Mr. Gomma declared, if 10 per cent of our rivers were free from pollution. Among other lamentable. results, rivers which had been producing salmon to the value of many thousands of pounds yearly were rapidly becoming ishless. In twenty-five years there would be no rivers left-only open sewers. Anglers felt the position keenly, but they were not the only, or, indeed, the worst, sufferers. In numerous instances cattle had been poisoned, and farmers had had October 23rd.. to move stock from riverside meadows.

But, having reached this point, he amazed friends and foes alike by moderating his policy in the hour of his triumph. It was he and Dzerjinsky who called back Trotzky from exile, when Zinoviev would have had him shot. It was he who aided Trotzky back to limited power. When he found that Zinoviev's extreme communist tactics were offending foreign Powers and producing economic chaos in Russia, he discarded Zinoviev like an old glove. Zinoviev struggled in vain.
