InterLas Monthly Report No.843

'At the 72nd Annual Congress of the People's Revolutionary Party of Lasatania, Chairman Wahler rose to address the crowd. A reverential silence filled the Hall of Martyrs as the Great Chairman began to speak:

"People of Lasatania, citizens of the North Pacific, I stand here now to affirm Lasatania's position within this realm. Seventy-two year's after the glorious revolution I can finally affirm that Party has managed to secure total control over the island. No longer are the enemies of Revolutionary Socialism able to spread their deceit and hamper our glorious nations efforts on its path to greatness. No longer shall we have to look inwards to find our enemies. For we have removed the cancer that blighted the body of our nation and we shall now seek to spread the message of revolution through this region.

"Already our army is making preparations for expeditions to challenge those who decrie our glorious path as a sham. Our industrial centres have been alllocated new production figures that will see our Navy and Air Force swell, with two new aircraft carriers forming the core of our expeditionary force.

"The carriers are to be named Komrade Ilyich Yagarin and Chairman Wahler, in honour of the two figures that have contributed the most to our eternal revolution."

"As well as the strengthening of our forces, a new civilian defense strategy has been formulated. Local Kommisars will issue instructions to building wardens for the formation of defensive teams, which will receive training in urban defense. For our enemies overseas are planning to attack us soon. They wish to crush the seed of revolution planted in our great land. We will be ready for them."

The Hall of Martyrs rose to its feet in celebration of the venerable Chairman's speech, honouring him with a 30 minute ovation.


Science

Researchers at the State Fission Research centre in Karkova have commenced testing of a new missle, the Faloon II. With a range of 1,000 km the Faloon offers our great nation the capability to strike at those who threaten our revolution. Our great Chairman has urged our scientests to dedouble their efforts in the Fission bomb programme, which it is hoped will be ready within the next two months.
