Lenin had suffered an attack of arter iosclerosis May 26, 1922. After improving for some time he suf fered a second stroke in Decem ber, 1922, and at the time of the alleged incident reported by Trot sky February, 1923 physi cians were doubtful of his recov ery. No Vote Was Taken Trotsky reported that Stalin mentioned hte poison request to the politburo 'after the departure of the secretary." Present at the meeing m addition to Stalin and himself were Gregory Zinoviev and Lev Kamenev, Trotsky's bro-ther-inlaw. Both these men were executed during the famous purge. "No vote was taken," Trotsky reported, "since this was not a formal conference, but we parted with the implicit understanding that we could not even consider sending poison to Lenin." Eleven months after the alleged incident Lenin died. ''Whether Stalin sent the poison to Lenin with the hint that the physicias had left no hope for hi? recovery,' ' said Trotsky, "or wheather he resorted to more dir ect means I do not Know. I am firmly convinced that Stalin could not have waited passive'.j when his fate hung by a thread and the decision depended on a small very small motion of his hand." Trotsky quoted Grigori Besso dovsky, a former Soviet diplomat: "who had heard various tales in second - and third cratic salons, Stalin's alleged part in the execu tion of the czar and his family. Bessodovsky quoted Stalin as saying: "Under no circumstances must the czar be surrendered to the White Guards" and added these words were tantamount to sentence of death." Trotsky add- ' ed the cryptic comment: "My plan: trial radio documents." He didn't indicate how he pro ! posed to utilize radio in 1918 at a time when not only in Russia but i throughout the world only a few ' , "ham' operators were in posses- ! 4 I ...v ivnirimifm Dancer Believes Waltz Returning HOLLYWOOD PJ.R) Dancing teacher Kenny Williams predicts that jiterbugging is on its way out j and the waltz s on its way back in. I It's about every 50 years, Will I iams has observed, that the waltz I returns to popularity, then slips uacK into secona or tniru pi.ape behind some hot jumpy dance. His conclusions were strength ened by his experiences teaching the Charleston to high school hep cats for the 20th Century Fox technicolor musical, "Margie," starring Jeane Crain, Alan Young and Glenn Langan., "The kids had no trouble learn ing the Charleston steps, but they j agcin was the top favorite complained that the music was too fast. That indicates to me that dancing is slowing up again." Willams said the waltz first be came popular in 1850. "As usual, the people cc-u!dn't keep their feet on the dance flocr long, and by 1910 they were! jumping again to the cakewalk. It: held its own until the one-.-ter.i "It caused plenty of talk at the; foxtrot, maxixe, bunny-hug ard.so time.

He did not quote Len in's comment on Trotsky as a lead er afflicted with "too-far-reach-selfconfidence and a disposi tion to be too much attracted by the purely administrative side of affairs."

"The Soviet Government," con cluded Trotsky, "not only arrest ed and executed its actual minis ter of war, Tukachevsky, but over and above that it exterminated the entire senior commanding staff of the army, navy and the air corps. Aided by accommodat ing foreign correspondents in Moscow, the Stalin propaganda machine has been systematically deceiving public opinion the world over about the actual state of af fairs in the Soviet Union.
