In describing R ussian methods ir dealing with the satellites, Nie Iieszczanski brouglit out. the com bining of political terror and hun ger as a conitrolling force. He described the operation of the Rus sian secret police, which recruits its iii foriers from the people at large, giving them no choice but to sly oi their countrymen.
