Gannett, Lewis S. | February 6, 1924 issue

add to cart   close window

Filed away in the secret archives of the old imperial government of Russia lie tons of documents, some of which have been brought to light and some of which are still hidden. A new and amazing series has just been exposed by Boris Souvarine in the columns of l'Humanité of Paris. Souvarine, a young Frenchman of Russian descent, spent two years in Russia ransacking the files of the Russian Ministry of Finance, and returned with a load of sensational documents revealing in detail the manner in which the Czar's Government systematically bribed the French press from 1904 until the Soviet Revolution stopped the game.
