War Leader ls

Telling Lies

LONDON, March l3 - (CP) —- Gcncralissimo Stalin today charged Winston Chur- chill with working for a “war

with the U. S. S. R.” and ac-

cused his former associate in the Big 'i‘hrce of telling "lies" in his recent Fulton, Mu., ad- dress.

Further, Premier Stalin de- clared ln a rare interview in Pravda, Communist P a rt y newspaper, that Mr. Churchill and “his friends in England

and the United States" are

promoting a Ilitlerite “race

theory" of world domination by the English-speaking peoples under the threat oi war.

"It is obvious that Mr. Church- ill aims for war, with a view to war with the U.S.S.R.," Gen. Sta- lin said. "He is trying to mislead his listeners by saying that the

eriod of the agreement between England and the U. S. S. R. (A 20-year friendship treaty) can be

prolonged up to 50 years.

"But how can one take thla statement while at the same time he is laying the groundwork for war against the U. S. B. Rn?" the Soviet leader continued.

"There ls no sense to prolong- ing the treaty if one party breaks it and converts it into an empty piece of paper."

(This was believed in London to be the first reference in the Rus- sian press to extension of ~the

d d - iloh by the English-speaking peo- ple, Stalin said:

"Mr. Churchill and his friends in England and the United Statei are submitting to the nations who do riot speak the English language a sort of ultimatum: you recog- nize our superiority and every- thing will be all right. Otherwise war is inevitable."

The Russian leader took this unusual occasion-he rarely permits himself to be quoted by an interviewer-to accuse his wartime associate in the Big Three of "lies" in the Ful- ton. address and of working for "war with the U. S. S. R."
