Survey Of Bolshevism

.'\ biography" of the Russian dictator. Stalin. has been written liv a lircnch Communist nam- ed Boris Souvariue and translated into Iinglish by C. I._ R. James. The sub-title is "A Critical Survicv of Bolslicvisiti," and J. A. Spender, ".1 vvell known journalist and Liberal publicist, rc- yiews it in the Smiday Titties. _

Much of the book, the reviewer says, is hard reading. The author was on the executive of the Communist International, though the term est-Communist is used. At any mte lic has had access to all the records of the Russian revolu- lionary movement “piled mountains high in the last twenty years." Thus, he has been able tn give a detailed account of developments from the beginning until the day of Stalin. The shades and subtleties of that Bolshevist doc- trine, from Marx through Lenin, TYPl-sk)’ l° the present autocrat, are of a "maddening com-

true faith. Such a rmmaal is needed badly for the help 0f those lost in the labyrinth: of revolu- tionary theory. Lacking it, ‘my jerk)“; gru- dcnt can kam little. He gets merely "a con- fused general impression that professional revolutionaries are an incredibly quarrclsome people who, not content with warring against the ‘bourgeoisie,’ are ready to murder one an- other for shades and shadows of doctrine which none of them understand."

Mr. Spender points out that the most merciless critic of Russia's “new civilization" is the dis- illusioned Communist who has acquired ample knowledge at first hand. Souvarine takes the reader through all the stages—“new economic policy, industrialization, collectivization of agri- culture, five-year plans, and brands them all as, in greater or lesser degrees, impostures." And Stalin is portrayed as combining the characteris- tics of Nero and Caligula with those of Ivan the Terrible and Peter the Great. “Beside him Lenin looks almost benevolent and Hitler only a very inferior performer in the same line of business." Souvariiie declares that under Stalin's rule, the actual facts in Russia, estimated in misery and death, are far worse than ever has been t-z-Id.
