Y. C.: "Will you explain the New Communism for the benefit of your friends in America?'' • S.: "Gladly. What's yoqrs is mine. What's mine is my own. One for all. All for me." Y. C.: "Thank You, Comrade Stalin!" (This concluded the interview. We then dined on Kiev kutlets, toasted one another with vodka, and exchanged assurances of mutual affection).
Moscow, April 14This afternoon we went to the Cine Moscow, witnessing the premier showing of "The Strange Loves of Karl Marx." This is a picture full of love, hate, passion, people, feeling, inspiration, expiration, transpiration, respiration, indifference. It takes place in Siberia, where capitalists are swinging on trees. When Harry Truman, lurking in the underbrush, sets fire to the trees things get hot. One wise capitalist, letting go of a branch, says to another, "I regret to say, fellow billionaires, it has become necessary to face the moujik!" He gets burned up for pulling a reactionary joke. Around lanky, taciturn Karl Marx revolves a cast of 57 of the world's most attractive men. "The Strange Loves of Karl Marx" is the kind of picture whose producers have spared no expense, except in producing it. The musical background is 'tastefuily restrained. It is provided by a combination cigarette case and music box. There is no music unless the hero wants a cigarette. To get a cigarette he listens to seven tinkling choruses of Marche Slob. Pretty soon fans associate Marche Slob with Karl's nicotine desires. This is a neat psychological touch.

Moscow, April 3Today we witnessed the military review held in our honor in Red Square, afterwards holding our interview with Premier Stalin in the Kremlin. We were escorted by members of the Pro-Joe Club (corresponding to our Young Democrats Club in America.) Without revealing any secrets, we have been authorized to quote the following: Your Correspondents: "Would you, sir, be willing to join with the United States in sponsoring ERP ?" Stalin: "No! We'll keep our Lenin clean! Y. C.: "What about the Czechoslovakia coup?" S.: "It wasn't so chicken as you think. Get it-chicken coup. That's a joke, DA.? Samovar antagonists 10 America have presented a distorted view."
