Proof and Politics Behind Bolshvik Relieve Appeal

A Soviet denial claims no famine relief appeal to the United States or Britain via government channels. Instead a non governmental Gorky led relief request shows the regime’s control over communication avenues. Gorky’s petition to Washington implies Moscow approval and a state department pledge to release prisoners under Hoover terms. The piece argues the link between Russia’s appeal for aid and Soviet authority is clear, and denial serves propaganda aims.
