RUSSIAN QUARREL
RULERS DIVIDED
STORMY MEETINGS By Cable. — F’ress Association. — Copyright. LONDON, Tuesday. The Riga correspondent of “The Times” says most stormy meetings of the Trades Union Conference followed the recent speech by Bucharln, chairman of the Third (Communist) International, in which he said it was intended to utilise the poor peasantry to crush the new bourgeoisie and private traders. Opposition speakers have accused Stalin and Bucharin of using the trades unions for the benefit of State trusts and syndicates, and of sacrificing possible increases in wages to make enterprises yield profits. The expulsion of heretics from the Third International continues. Those expelled include six additional prominent Communists. The Soviet has now announced the discovery of more espionage organisations. The trial of some of the alleged spies Is to be commenced shortly. The victims include three sons of a former Moscow millionaire, Koropakoff, and the legal adviser to the Revolutionary Military Council. The announcement states that the prisoners collected information for Mr. E. Charnock, British commercial attache at Moscow. The Soviet Government has abolished the death penalty except tor crimes against the State.—Times.
