Russia s World Conquest Plan • • • Womaii^s Point of View
Fight Fully, or Get Out.
A S WE POINTED out many months ago,
the troops now fighting in Korea are do
ing so under unprecedented circumstances.
They have wondered why they were over
there.- in the first place, and they still won
der why they have to fight under the restric
tions of a so called “police action.” We ima
gine that the experts in psychological mat
ters of warfare are still trying to find a rea
son acceptable to the man in the foxhole.
Senator Capehart, (R-Ind.) was recently
on a radio debate program at which time he
was asked if he would vote for a declaration
of war on China. His reply was that he would
vote for such a measure in order to give the
“American boys fighting in Korea every
chance to go after the Chinese Communists
who are killing them.” He added that he did
no favor our sending troops to Korea in the
first place.
Admittedly, the situation is getting to be
more intolerable every day. It has forced the
Communists to tip their hand, and we have
learned a great deal about their tactics and
weapons. The only other justification for the
continuance of the police action would be the
purchase of time.
No one seems to be making a frantic rush
to prepare for an all out war, so we must
conclude that time is not worth the sacrifice
of men and materials. We are forced to agree
with the Senator. We should either fight a
war in the fullest meaning, or gracefully pull
out to fight another day.
In view of the implications of a major
air attack on Manchuria, and the apparent
loss of faith in the U. N. on the part of the
United States—the latter may be the wiser
course. We have no definite information, but
there is a chance that an orderly withdrawal
is now being carried out.
Stalin Tells How
Communists Will
Ruin Capitalism
Vet Families Gel Babies,
New Cars During Holidays
By VIVIAN CASTLEBERRY
Presented here today are part III, IV, V, and VI of Joseph Stalin’s
doctrine, “Russia’s Plan for World Conquest”, published in the January
issue of Coronet magazine.
Obtained by Coronet from the Stalin archives of the National War
College in Washington, D.C., The Battalion published Stalin’s intro
duction and parts I and II here yesterday.
Today’s installment of Stalin’s nine-point plan, which will be
concluded in tomorrow’s Battalion, discusses the Russian communists
plan for undermining the principles and foundations of government
in non-communist countries. Labor unions, liberal poltical organiza
tions, and the customarily liberal-minded youth of these countries are
the primary targets of the Red program of revolution.
Stalin’s own words prove conclusively that organizations in this
country sympathetic to the Communist movement did not develop
that attitude alone. In simple language he tells exactly why the seed
of communism must be planted inside other countries by means any
thing short of actual warfare, and how it shall be accomplished.
Because the Red Dictator tells us just what and where our weak
points are, this doctrine should bring sharply into focus in the minds
of American people, the influence, the thinking, and the political ar
guments that they must inspect thoroughly and closely before ac
cepting.—The Editor.

our
‘Hips to Be Fashionable’.
By JOSEPH STALIN
III
O UR FIRST official act upon receiving
the newspaper in the morning is to dodge
all the grim stories of war and international
hews and look for our favorite literary of
fering, ‘Togo the Possum.” As we sleepily
thumbed through the paper last Tuesday,
we were shocked from our early hour torpi
dity by a headline in the women’s section—
“Hips to Be Fashionable During Coming
Year.”
The logical counterpart to that headline
was of course that hips were not fashionable
last year.
And that really poses a problem in re
trospect. How did people get by without
their hips in 1950. The fashion conscious peo
ple, that is. “Hatchet,” our roommate, has
done all right for years, but his is obvious
ly a special case.
As we tried to recover from thinking
about all the ramifications of that news note,
we noticed the headline on the very next
story. “Bosom Gets Emphasis By Californ
ians.” Was this revolt from one of our lead
ing fashion states? Or perhaps their policy
was “Why change now, we got by all right
in ’50 without hips.” Or could it be that the
cost of altering slacks makes the new fashion
note impractical in California?
Note to Texas Women. One of our favor
ite occupations is standing on the corner and
watching the sweet young things pass by.
Please don’t become so fashion conscious
that you leave out any of the old stand-bys
which make “watching” such a pleasure.
N O COUNTRY can, in these times, carry on war without
the workers. If workers refuse to make war against our
Soviet Republic, then such war becomes impossible.
Communists must go into the unions, work in them for
five or more years if necessary—see to it that every com
munist, without exception, becomes a member of an appro
priate trade union, there to work patiently and systematical
ly for the solidarity of the working class in its fight against
capitalism.
The support of our revolution by the workers of all
lands, and, even more, by the victory of workers in a few
countries at least, are indispensable preliminaries without
which the final triumph of socialism cannot be assured.
Should an attack on Russia materialize, we should be pre
pared to use every and any means in order to open the flood
gates of revolution throughout the world, rallying the work
ers of capitalist countries and the people of colonial lands
to the aid of the Soviet Union.

with “Really, Now! How long
do I have to live next door to
you before you recognize
me?” . . . We’ve seen more

SpeakiiiR' of New Year’s Bab
ies, we’ve got one right among
us. He is tiny Danny Ray Smart,
who put in his appearance in
time to be the first child born in
Brazos County in 1951. As a
result of his timely entrance
into the Scheme of Things, Dan
ny has been showered with gifts
from merchants and other well-
wishers, all of which makes his
mom and dad, Ray and Lena
Smart, doubly happy. Danny
has a bigger brother, Duane, to
grow up to, . . Jack and Roselle
Sellers have welcomed into their
College home a brand-new baby
daughter born in time to be a
Christmas present for her folks.
We aren’t running a lost-and-
found department, but we do think
we owe Frederick Adicks a plug
to try to find his Sheaffer pen
cil. Seems he lent it to the fellow
behind him in line so the guy
could sign for his annual. Then
Fred became so engrossed in his
new book that he walked right out
without getting his pencil back.
The pencil has a black bottom and
a gold top and Fred would like
for the man who borrowed it to
drop it back by the Agriculturist
office. Note-taking gets pretty
heavy around final examination
time and Fred claims he could take
better notes if his pencil would
only come back.

having full White House backing.
A bill covering it will come put of
the defense department “during the
week,” Marshall said.
As sketched by Marshall and
Mrs. Rosenberg, the system, would
work like this:
How It Works
• Young men reaching 18 would
become liable for service if physi
cally and mentally fit. (Now they
only have to register at that age).
® Only about 450,000 of the esti
mated 1,050,000 reaching 18 would
be actually inducted the first year,
partly because that is all the serv
ice could handle well. Those near
est their 19th birthdays would be
taken unless they got individual
■ defermentfi. The plan would aim
at taking substantially all the non-
deferred cligibles in later years.
# Students usually would be de
ferred to graduate from high school
or finish a college year.
® Those called would get a mini
mum of four months training be
fore they go into regular service.
Marshall said that in general
youths under 19 would not go over
seas but he didn’t want “our hands
tied” by law.
# For the first three years of
the plan, 75,000 boys a year would
be deferred for study in medicine,
sciences and needed specialists, but
they would get their four months
basic training first and would “owe
23 months service.”
The Navy’s officer training
jivould
program in civilian colleges
be explained to cover the other
services.
• The services would send an
other 50,000 on active duty to col
leges for the first three years, for
training that would help the mili
tary.
9 Eligible men studying medi
cine and specialties would be de
ferred upon graduation in suffi
cient numbers to meet civilian re
quirements.
• Men completing their service
terms would go into the reserves
for three to six years. This could
be shortened if they entered the
National Guard or active reserve
units.
JANUARY 15-31
How will we bring the masses of a nation into the com
munist program? We have fashioned a number of organi
zations without which we could not wage war on capitalism;
.. trade unions, cooperatives, workshop committees, labor par
ties, women’s associations, a labor press, educational leagues,i
youth societies.
As often as not, these ate non-party organizations and
only a certain proportion of them are linked with the party.
But under special conditions, every one of these organiza
tions is necessary; for, lacking them, it is impossible to
consolidate the class positions of the workers in the various
spheres of the struggle.
There is a veritable ant heap of independent organiza
tions, commissions, and committees comprising millions of
non-party members. Who decides upon the direction that
all these organizations take? Where is the central unit of
organization that wields sufficient authority to keep them
within prescribed lines in order to achieve unity of command
and to avoid confusion?
The central unit is the Communist party!
Love! It’s beautiful! Ask the
thousand married Aggies! For
that matter, ask any of the guys
who went home Christmas to
place sparklers on the girl
friends. Glenn McAnally joined
the engaged men by making it
official between himself and girl
friend, Patsy Garrett. Now Glenn
haunts the post office even more
than he once did for news from
the O-A-O.

pifest man about is Fred Walkef,
Who just after the holidays was
showing off his pretty girl friend
to envious fellow Aggies. Blonde
Audrey calls Cordova, Tennessee,
home, hails from England and is
now employed in Denton—which
Fred claims is the farthest city
from Bryan he can think of. Au
dreys’ last name is Caughey (pro
nounced coffee), but we won’t
bother to remember it for from the
looks of those two it will be Walk

MARCH 0 * DIMES
The Battalion
Lawrence Sullivan Ross, Founder of Aggie Traditions
"Soldier, Statesman, Knightly Gentleman”
The Battalion, official newspaper of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas, is published
five times a week during the regular school year. During the summer terms, The Battalion is published
four times a,week, and during examination and vacation periods, twice a week,. Days of publication are
Monday through Friday for the regular school year, Tuesday through Friday during the summer terms,
and Tuesday and Thursday during vacation and examination periods. Subscription rates $6.00 per year
or $.50 per month. Advertising rates furnished on request.
Among the masses of the people, we communists, as
Lenin, said, are but drops in the ocean. We have a style of
work that is peculiar to the practice of Leninism; it creates
a special type of worker, a special type of party or State of
ficial, a special kind of style in public office.
Our task is to assign party members to the key positions
in the State apparatus, and to see to it that the apparatus is
thus subjected to part leadership.
For the revolutionist, the Revolution is everything, and
“reforms” are only a means to an end. What we are con
cerned with are not the reforms, but the uses they can be
put to. A revolutionist may sponsor a “reform” because he
sees in it a means for linking up constitutional action with
unconstitutional action—because he feels he can make use
of it as a screen behind which he can strengthen his secret
work.
Speaking of Christmas presents,
many Aggie couples came back
from the holidays driving theirs.
Santa left a new Ford to Carl
and Jeanie Schluter up in Des
Moines, Iowa, where the two vis
ited her mother, Mrs. R. J.
Merrill. . . . Calvin and Lillie
Mae Janak came back from
Christmas in style in a smooth
new convertible.

What is our Youth technique? It is the education of
young workers and young farmers in the spirit of Leninism,
strengthening their conviction that our Worker’s State is
the base from which the revolution in all countries will de

the leadership of the Communist party of Russia.
Young communists must be active in all domains of
