Mill employees, stay- ing up all night as the high water level threatened the dam's con- struction, knew beforehand of the millpond's - action of cracking the ice when the fourteenth log of the dam was removed. Stopping at the thirteenth, they waited for a grad- ual break-up of the ice, but when the break-up failed to occur, they removed log number 14, and ice- cakes as big as household kitchens descended upon the dam, sweeping away the top sections. Mill employees recovered some of the logs more than 300 yards downstream below the Goodyear Rubber Company dam. Four were recovered, leaving two or three to be found by the team of horses dragging the swollen creek today. Workmen later said they had ex- pected the ice to sink to the bot- tom of the pond in large sections rather than break up completely. Mill owner Morley Vanstone commented, "This is one of the joys of having water-power." OBITUARIES MRS. MARK LAMBOURNE Rev.

He fought his way to the top by sweeping aside his revoliionary | comrades, among them Leon Trot- sky, after the death of Nikolai | Lenin, Ever since 1927 Stalin has held the reins, but it, took the {purges of the 1930s to make his grip secure. Such was the fury of the struggle to consolidate his rule that Stalin determined to perpetuate his em- pire by eliminating those conditions which might foster a new succes- sion fight at his own death. The summoning of an all-tnion Soviet Communist party congress last October, Yor the first time since pre-Second World War days, indicated that perhaps the mach- inery of succession had been set in motion; for the dictator was ap- proaching 'his 73rd birthday. Stalin himself had made the key- note address at the previous con- gress 13 years earlier, but this time the honor was given to Georgi M. Malenkov, a young and vigor- ous protege of Stalin. As if he were preparing to take a back seat and watch younger men carry on the dictatorship he had forged, Stalin appeared at the congress EE wild cheers but did immediately address the group. Instead he set the mood of the sessions with a 25,000-word lecture on political economy pub- lishedo n the eve of the first meet- ing Oct. 5. It sounded like a vale- dictory. Stalin's rise to the throne of communism was accomplished in the face of what seemed over- whelming odds in favor of Trotsky, who had been commander-in-chief of the Red armies during the revol- ution and who had appeared much closer to Lenin than Stalin, But Stalin in 1922 became sec- retary of the Communist party and promptly started using the post, controlling party machinery, as a lever for prying himself into the ailing Lenin's place. Two years later Lenin died, and Stalin and Trotsky were in open conflict over the party leadership. Stalin won the support of Greg- ory Zinoviev and Leon Kamenev, {two revolutionary stalwarts, and | Trotsky was defeated. He was ex- iled in 1927. The reward for Zinoviev and Kamenéy came in 1936. With 14 others, they were brought to trial in Moscow. All confessed that the 1934 assassination of Sergei Kirov, a friend of Stalin, was a plot to wipe out Stalin and other Soviet Union leaders. The 16 defendants soon were executed. Other old Bol- shevik leaders were ensnared in more of the famous Moscow purge trials. Stalin had become supreme; he was ready to lead Russia with- out internal opposition through the pre-Second World War days and the global conflict itself. He took his country into a friendship agreement with Nazi Germany and thus freed internat- ional communism's bitter oppon- How COLDS affect Your KIDNEYS The kidneys are v ate easily affected--especially by a cold.

Joseph Vissarionovich Djugash- vili, the son of a Georgian shoe- maker and a serf mother, was at his zenith as Josehp Stalin. His 70th birthday Dec. 21, 1949, was the occasion for extravagant cele- brations around the Communist world. There was a flood of adu- lation -- 70 fréight carloads of gifts from conquered East Ger- many alone -- for the dictator whose name means "steel." It was the climax of a revolut- ionary career started when he was just 15 years old, and an unsatis- fied theological student. He had organized strikes during the late seven times. It was in Siberia that Stalin received his first note from Lenin. : Lenin and his Bolsheviks in the October, 1917, revolution ousted the government of Alexander Ker- ensky, who had come to power in the confusion following the March, 1917, overthrow of the czar.
