USSR DEVELOPS NEW ALLOY MOSCOW—The Soviet Union has sold a license to the Reynolds International Corporation, U.S.A., for a new methods of obtaining ‘silicon-aluminum alloys—silumin in particular, which has been dev- eloped and successfully passed all tests in the Soviet Union. Silumin goes into the making of automobile, ship and tractor engines, car- buretors, gear boxes, compressor parts and so on. It is used whenever light-weight, lasting and eye-appealing metal is required. According to the new techniques evolved in a laboratory in the USSR, silicon-aluminum alloys are made by the method of direct restoration in powerful electric furnaces straight from the ore. This permits full obviating of the use of expensive silicon and reducing the consumption of aluminum by 20 to 25%. Capital investment in building new enterprises is reduced.

PACIFIC TRIBUNE—FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2% 270—PAGE 8 SANTIAGO — Hernan del Canto, general secretary of the 800,000-strong Chilean Federa- tion of Labor, declared here over the weekend that the Federation will defend the electoral victory of Dr. Salvador Allende, Popular Unity candidate, against all at- tacks and manoeuvres of reac- tion. Senator Orlando Millas told the Communist Party of Chile’s central committee, on Sept. 14, that domestic reaction has initi- ated an all-out campaign to cre- ate economic chaos in the nation, to incite disorder and insecurity, and has begun manipulations to prevent the election by Parlia- ment of Allende to the presiden- cy on. Oct. 24. CIA agents and fascist ele- ments are planning to murder Allende and other leaders of Popular Unity, Millas said. The plurality accorded Allende in the Sept. 4 election represent- ed a historic step in the creation of an anti-imperialist and demo- cratic multi-party people’s demo- cratic government, Millas said. This will-initiate in Chile a pro- cess of democratic and profound revolutionary changes, he added. This government will be a pro- gressive coalition, representing the working classes, the popular masses of city and country, the intellectuals and the middle strata, he emphasized. It is the alliance of the anti- imperialist and anti-oligarchy political forces. Millas- stressed that Popular Unity will not cut itself off from the Christian-Democratic sec- tions of the population, but will keep the doors open for them. Popular Unity will also ap- proach sections of the followers - of Jorge Allesandri, Rightist can- didate in the Sept. 4 elections, who are turning away from re- action, disappointed and shocked by its anti-national maneuvers. For these reasons all efforts to isolate the Communist Party are doomed to failure, Millas said. He pointed out that through- out the nation the number of people’s unity groups and com- mittees is growing, and thev are developing their activities. They are rapidly overcoming all ten- dencies toward sectarian actions. . Millas warned against the dan- ger of Left-extremism, whose activities, he said, can only en- danger the work of a future people’s government and would serve the putschist attempts of national and international reac- tion. * The exclusion of the present ruling classes from power is a vital necessity for Chilean so- ciety, Millas said. That is why the future people’s government will nationalize the natural re- sources which are in the hands of imperialist corporations, and carry through consistently the land reform and improve the supplying of the population with essential consumption goods. One of its first measures will be to see to it that every Chilean child receives a half-litre of milk daily, he said, Further, steps will be taken immediately to abolish unemployment. The people’s victory on Sept. 4 opened the road to the most democratic regime in the history of Chile, Millas said.. The people’s government will guarantee the expression of democratic rights and respect personal freedom. In the coming weeks, Millas said, the Chilean people must have nerves of steel, and must be united, organized and alert, as never before.
