MOSCOW MENACE
WORLD’S FALL PREDICTED,
REMARKABLE DEMONSTRATION.
(Received .11.55 a.m.) LONDON, November 9.
The Riga correspondent of the "Times” says; "Nobody must stay at home. Everyone must be in the streets to speed the mighty living currents converging on Lenin’s mausoleum,” was the Soviet’s order to the Moscow populace to celebrate the anniversary. The parade included unprecedentedly large national cavalry formations from Eastern peoples, including Turkomans and Caucasians.
M.M. Kalinin, Bukharin and Gallacier and Mr Saklatvala (Communist M.P. for Battersea) were among the orators at the Lenin mausoleum. They emphasised that Bolshevism had brought the world to the brink of ruin. It would shortly fall, enabling the establishment of Soviets throughout the world.
The celebrations included a two-day theatrical representation broadcast all over Russia, of the decade’s events, giving prominence to the General Strike, which occurred in Britain, "T.U.C. traitors,” and the part Sir Austen Chamberlain, Mr Baldwin and Mr Churchill look therein. They declared that M. Voikoff’s murder was directed from London. The celebration culminated in the British delegate paying a tribute in broken Russian to the Soviet’s progress.— Times.
