"Throughout Russia last week Dictator Joseph Stalin continued his 'purge' against 'Trotskyites'."
"Helping in the 'purge' was the NKVD (formerly the OGPU), which continued to investigate every state institution and every individual the secret police believed had Trotskyist leanings. In addition, the Soviet press declared Trotskyism must be cleaned out, root and branch. Leading newspapers announced the revival of the spying methods developed by the dreaded Cheka in the early days of the Bolsheviki revolution. One paper urged every son to spy upon his father, and every worker to spy upon his neighbor."
"The better spy you are, the better communist you prove yourself."
