RUSSIA’S RECOVERY
SOVIET LEADERS PLANNING GLOWING FUTURE PAINTED (Australian and N.Z. Press Association) MOSCOW, Friday. A secret conference is being held at the Kremlin at which the Communist leaders are discussing a fiveyear plan for tile industrialisation of Russia. The newspapers are publishing a summary of the proceedings every day. The President, M. Rykoff, and other speakers, painted glowing pictures of how the Soviet Union not only would reach but would surpass the economic level of capitalistic countries. M. Rykoff said the plan calls for a 20 per cent, growth in industrialisation a year. That growth was, he said, without precedent even in the United States where, in the most intensive periods of development, it had increased only 8 per cent. M. Kirjanovski, head of the State Planning Organisation, outlined projects for railways and canals to link up sources of food and fuel with the industrial centres.
