Reds See Coincidence In Speech By Truman
Foreign observers in Moscow note it may be coincidence that President Truman is to speak on November 7 the day the Soviet Union marks the 34th anniversary of the Red Revolution. Usually Soviet leaders deliver major speeches the eve of the anniversary and reference foreign affairs. Last year the speaker was Bulganin, deputy premier and Politburo member.
