STALIN CHARGES BRITAIN BEHIND VOIKOFF MURDER Prominent Soviet and Com- munist Says War Was Object Moscow, July 30.--Josef C. Stalin, a member of the Soviet Russian Gov- ernment and general secretary of the executive of the Communist party, charged that the British Gov. ernment instigated the recent ass- assination of the Soviet Minister to Poland for the purpose of precipita- ting a European war. Specific Charges , Stalin specifically laid the or- ganization of the assassination plot to the Conservative party, which con- trols the British Government by a large majority in the House of Com- mons. Boris Kowerda, was sen- tenced to prison for his crime, "The first open attack by the Con. servative Government of England against the Soviet was delivered through the raid on the Soviet em- bassy at Peking," wrote Stalin in Investia, organ of the Government. 'That failed.' "The second public stroke against the Soviey was delivered in London by the raid on Arcos House and the breach of Anglo-Soviet relations. It also failed. "The third open hlow was deliver- ed in Warsaw by an organization of murder. Voikoff's murder was or: ganized by agents of the Conserva- tive party and was intended for the same role as the murder at Sara- jevo. This also seems to have fail: ed." An energetic speaker at an elec- tion meeting lashed himself into a frenzy. "And are you--honest, hard- working Canadians like you--are you, 1 ask you again, going to take all this lying down." "No!" shouted a voice from the back of the. hall; the reporters are in Oshawa doing that."
