Men Now Accused of Being "Despicable Traitors"
Moscow, Dee..18.
M. Ousenko, First Secretary for the Ukrainian Komsomols, and others, members of the Central Committee Bureau, who were denounced last November as "enemies of the people," were asserted -here today to have formed a "despicable clique of traitors to the country, degenerated Fascists, Trotzkyists, Bukharinites and nationalist bourgeois."
The Central Committee of the Ukrainian Komsomols, which met recently, has in the meantime excluded five more of its members from ite list because of "lack of political vigilance." Yet a sixth man was deposed because of relations with "enemies of the people."
M. Khomenko has now been elected First Secretary for the Ukrainian Komsomols.—Havas.
