Russia Condemns China's Dogmatists
MOSCOW - (UPI) - The Soviet Union, in an apparent new ideological slap at Communist China, today condemned extreme "dogmatists" who favor war over peaceful coexistence to promote Communism
existence to promote Communism
The condemnation was contained in an editorial in the official Communist party newspaper Pravda marking the 45th anniversary of the Seventh Soviet Party Congress.
Although the editorial made no direct mention of Communist China, it appeared clearly aimed at the Pelicing regime and its "hard line" rejection of Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev's policy of peaceful coexistence with capitalism. The Chinese Reds do not exclude nuclear war as a means of spreading Communism.
The editorial was the first major Soviet statement related to the ideological rift with Peking since the Chinese published a 100,000-word defense of their position last weekend.
THE EDITORIAL praised Vladimir I. Lenin, one of the fathers of the Communist movement, for successfully beating back efforts by "left-wing" Communists and Leon Trotsky to continue the war against Germany in 1918.
RED FLAG. China's party theoretical journal, attacked Khrushchev and said "those who fear the enemy and dare not seize victory can be nothing other than cowards. . ."
Pravda said the seventh congress "confirmed by an overwhelming majority the correctness of Lenin's tactics" in recognizing the necessity of signing the Brest-Litovsk treaty.
"The experience of this struggle generalized by Vladimir Ilyich Lenin is most important and topical in present circumstances as well." Pravda said.
THE CONGRESS WAS held during one of the darkest hours in
Soviet history. Lenin's revolution was in grave danger and he voted for peace, even though the German terms were excessively hard.
Pravda also said Lenin was not above cooperating with capitalist powers if it served the Communist cause.
"Vladimir Ilyich considered as possible not only economic cooperation but also military cooperation between the Soviet state and a capitalist country or group of countries which would be prepared to cooperate with it in a struggle against more aggressive imperialist powers, directly threatening the Soviet state," Pravda said.
The ideological dispute with Peking repeatedly has involved charges, generally aimed at the Chinese through Albania, of dogmatism and excessive zeal when it comes to the question of war in the age of nuclear weapons.
IT SAID THE international Communist movement has "more than once encountered dogmatism and left-wingism" during the course of its history.
THE CHINESE reply by calling Khrushchev, generally through an attack on Yugoslavia and President Tito, a revisionist and frightened.
Red Flag attacked the Soviets and Khrushev for not letting the Russian people hear Peking's side of the argument.
"Cowardly as mice, they are scared to death," the journal said. Red Flag reiterated Peking's charges that the West is a "paper tiger" and it denounced peaceful coexistence.

At the East German Communist Party Congress in January, Khrushchev said that even if the United States was a paper tiger it should not be forgotten that it has nuclear teeth.

Does a man really take unfair advantage of women when he uses Mennen Skin Bracer?
Most men simply think Menthol-Iced Skin Bracer is the best after-shave lotion around. Because it cools rather than burns. Because it helps heal shaving nicks and scrapes. Because it helps prevent blemishes.
So who can blame them if Bracer's crisp, long-lasting aroma just happens to affect women so remarkably?
