ACKNOWLEDGMENT

JOSEPH STALIN still has accomplices, paid and unpaid,

In this country, where the truth is not hidden from them. "Stalin's Men had at once changed their step and followed their Leader. Their old pumph! ts, speeches, articles, and mani- festos were consigned to their ample demagogic dustbins.

"They listened to the voice of Moscow, compared notes with Berlin, shouted that they wantel, peace with Hitler, and joined the Unity Mitfords of the Right in a chorus of vituperation against the British and Frenchwar-mongers."

This is the official voice and warning of the British Labour Party in a 28-page booklet lasued for distribution to all their members-booklet entitled "Finland. The criminal con- spiracy of Stalin and Hitler."

The real depth of iniquity of M. Joseph Stalin is still un- known. Ilis 30 pieces of silver are already stained with the bloud of his own nameless and countless Russian dead.

M. Joseph Stalin and Herr Adolf Hitler embraced over the prostrate body of Poland.

Whether M. Joseph Stalin devours. those whom he loves, whether he was under the hypnotic spell of Adolf the Conqueror or Peter the Great, or whether he was now the victim of new morbid anxietles, the render is nt liberty to speculate,

The Finns are the victims of a policy of deception, blackmail, trie- kery, cynicism, and brutality not dissimilar to the subtle cruelty of Japanese militarism, but exceeding in cunning and dissimulation the diplomacy of Russian Czardom and Nazi Germany.

"A new precedent in international perfldy" "The grim joke of the Finnish People's Government" "The Red Czar is now the executor of the traditional Imperialism of Czarist Russia"-such phrases drip like vitriol from the pen.
