He has supported William Ran- dolph Hearst for public office. He} gained publicity as a disarmament | advocate. But at the same time he was advocating a large independent air force for the . United States. He has never uttered one word of criticism of the Fascist dictatorship | of Mussolini, but has been prominent | as an escort of visiting Fascist of- ficials to Washington.

Minor, a member of the Central Committee: of: the Com- munist Party has distinguished him- self as a leader of the unemployed | workers demonstrating for immediate relief at City Hall.

These scientific heroes watch the winds and study the sources, they chart virgin fields rich in natural resources. There is a powerful and .gripping drama in | their struggle against nature as they extend the boundaries of the so- cialist world. Last year cooperating with 34 | other nations, the Soviet Union par- ticipated in the Second Interna tional polar year for co-ordinated polar exploration and study. Pos- sessing the largest Arctic frontier of any nation in the world, and being | interested in building mighty indus- | tries near and above the Arctic | circle, the U. S. 8. R. established the | most extensive system of Arctic radio | and scientific stations ever main- tained by any nation. | The icebreaker Malygin of “Italia” | fame was sent out as part of the | second International Polar Year. | During the cruise four new islands f.| Were discovered, existing maps were }amended and enlarged, the world | famous meeting with the Graf Zep- | plin at Franz Joseph Land took place, | At Franz Joseph Land, too, a spe- | cial cinema shock brigade went ashore.
