SOVIET “IRON FIST” SOFTENED T0 RICH Bourgeoisie and Kulak Classes to Be “Attracted and Cared For.” By the Associated Press MOSCOW, July 6.—Soviet Russia has held cut a modified form of the olive branch to two classes of its citizens which, ever since the revolution it has marked as arch-enemies of Communism ~—the bourgeoisie and the kulak. Having suppressed ttem in no un- certain manner. it now proposes to for- giv> them their sins provided thev are duly repentant and willing to enter a new fold marked out for them. This means co-operation with and labor for the present regime It coes not m-an a relenting of the fron policy against “counter-revolution- ary” or subversive activities generally attributed to these classes as a whole It rather signifies that th= state wishes as far as possible tn avail itself of the best brains and skill of the old order because of the growing demands of agricultural and industrial development Policy of Tron Fist Joseph Stalin in a recent address before the conference of industrialists, concerning that part of the bourg:cisie which he called the “old industrial in- telligentsia.” saic “Oure attitude toward them during the reign of sabotage was exprassed in the policy of the iron fist. Now it must be expressed in a policy of attracting them and caring for them. Our pres- ent task dictates a change of attitude toward the engineering forces of the old &chool “We must show them greater atten- tion and care, attract them mor: boid- Iy to work. The most highly skilled portion of this class some years ago was infected by a wrecking malady. but since then we smashed and succ*ssfully over- came the cepitalistic elements in city and village “Regarding the interventionist dreams of the bourgeoisie. it is necessary to ad- mit they so far have proved to be a house built on sand. This explains the definite signs of the turn toward Soviet power of part of the section who formerly sympathized with the wreckers. Even yesterday's wreckers are beginning in a number of factories to co-operate with the working class. We must change our policy toward this group accord- ngly.” Hard for “Standpatters.” Many “standpat” members of the bourgeoisie have continued to exist in Russia since the revolution, but to those who have not joined the bolshevist cause life has been hard. The govern- ment's fight to extreminate the kulak has been even more intense. Kulaks were small_merchants and well-to-do peasants. For years an unrelenting drive has been waged to “liquidate” them. because there is no place in the Soviet state for private ownership of proverty and private trade. As part of the new order of things, Stalin also presented a program entail- | ing radical changes in the government's policy toward labor and industry to insure the success of the five-year plan. These were Readjustment of wages in conformity wih the type of work done.

Umberto Nobile, Italian explorer who commanded the dirigible Italia, will be when she sails for Archangel July 15 on an expedition into the Far North. He hopes to find Roald Amundsen and the missing men of the Italia expedi- tion. Many Arctic experts have expressed a belief in the possibility that the six men of the dirigible's crew who are missing, as well as Amundsen and his aid, who disappeared after flying to the rescue of the Italia, may be found in the region of Cape Flora. This hope is based on information supplied by the American explorer, Anthony Fiala, who said he left a store of provisions on Rudolf Island during & previous expedition and told Amundsen of the cache before Amundsen went to the aid of the Italia. It is consid- ered certain that Amundsen made for the store if he was able, possibly tak- ln‘tthf Italia survivors with him. | udolph Island has been visited twice | since the Italia expedition, but no sys- STAR, WASHINGTON, D.
