THIS IS UNEVALUATED INFORMATION 50X1-HUM The following is a summary of what Western nations might do to thwart the Stalin dictatorship's plans for world conquest: IntroduCtion 1. Western use of the atomic bomb against the USSR would give Stalin a means of rousing the Soviet people to "defense of civilization". In determining what other means may be used to break Stalin's power, the West must have a thorpugh understanding of Bolshevism, distinguished from the Marxian concept of communism. Bolshevism 2. Stalin is a disciple of the Leninist concept of communism which admittedly aims at world conquest; and every action and policy of the Soviet Government under Stalin's lead is designed to further this end. Further, to quote Lenin, "All that is for the benefit of the Communist International is entirely ethical". k second Lenin command- ment which Stalin observes is, "If we were to give an oath, as asked of us, that we would never attempt certain actions which, from a military point of view, would appear to be aggressive, then we would be not only fools but criminals". These statements should be borne in mind when one considers such apparent evidence of Soviet co- operation as membership in the UN. 50X1-HUM STATE ARM'e Strength of Bolshevism Even now, Bolshevism is receiving moral support from democratic countries; governments of subjugated countries are regarded as lawful national governments, rather than as the interlopers they actually are.

Stalin has not taken care of his most valuable asset -- his people; and the people have become afraid, disgusted and discouraged with their way of life and their govern- ment's policies and attitudes. As a result, the tremendous Bolshevik industrial and military machine is resting on a doubtful, unstable human mass which could be turned against its leaders. What to Do 50X1-HUM 6. "The struggle against Bolshevism now must be carried on not only by preparing material weapons but by an immediate shift to an attack with moral influence on the subjugated peoples and by revealing to them the truth about Bolshevism. With- out this shift from defense to attack in the cold war, the third world war between the peoples of the East and the West would be inevitable with terrible consequences of destruction and ruin. 7. "Immediate wide revelation of the truth about the nature of Bolshevism, information. regarding the true aims of the democratic countries, discrediting of the small group of usurpers in the TsK VKP (b) who have seized power, and giving of moral support to the people beyond tnd 'iron curtain' -- these measures would create a situation in which the Bolshevik dictators would not be able to arouse the masses of people for a struggle against the democratic countries. If an armed conflict should then burst out, it mould inevitably and quickly change into a civil war in the East. 8. "The multi-national Russian people are the main aore, the basic strength in Stalin's plan for seizing power. These people for the most part are patient and hardy, honest and generous, industrious and capable. In their historic past, the Russian people have many times heroically repelled the invasions of Mongols and Tartars in Europe, They have repeatedly risen to free Europe from dictators. Naw it is these people who are being prepared to be a tyrant-obeying armed horde, capable of seizing Europe and all countries of the world. 9. "The Russian people need immediate moral help. They must know that the democratic peoples of Europe and America are not enemies but friends. 10. "The great free, people of the USA could serve as an example of brotherly friendship in rendering moralsupport to the great Russian people. 11. "The struggle with moral means could be accomplished by: na.

"In case the representatives of the USSR refuse to give an exhaustive explanation re- garding these questions and also refuse to allow representatives of the UN in the USSR and in the territory of the countries suffering from interference by the USSR, then the UN should consider adoption of measures, analogous to measures adopted by it in the case of Franco Spain, since the threat to peace at the present moment from the USSR is immeasurably greater than it was before from Spain.
