Lazar Kaganovich was put in charge <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> construction <strong>of</strong> Moscow's<br />

underground (metro). He immediately began a brutal slave-labour system,<br />

where 70 000 workers were driven to extremes in three shifts. He had <strong>the</strong><br />

Chekists capture 11-year-old boys and make <strong>the</strong>m work for <strong>the</strong>ir lives so<br />

that <strong>the</strong> metro would be finished <strong>by</strong> <strong>the</strong> 1st <strong>of</strong> May 1935, <strong>the</strong> 159th<br />

anniversary <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Illuminati and <strong>the</strong> holy Yahweh Day. Kaganovich was<br />

knighted Cavalier <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Order <strong>of</strong> Lenin for <strong>the</strong> organisation <strong>of</strong> this pro-<br />

ject, in which many workers died. The Russian people, meanwhile, began<br />

calling him <strong>the</strong> "Iron Commissar". The Jewish functionaries called him<br />

<strong>the</strong> "Great Lazar".<br />

The underground, designed <strong>by</strong> Alexei Shchussev, was finished in time.<br />

Thc first to travel <strong>the</strong> metro were <strong>the</strong> Politburo, with <strong>the</strong> exception <strong>of</strong><br />

Stalin who was afraid to go so deep underground. His sickness had taken a<br />

turn for <strong>the</strong> worse. The metro was given Kaganovich's name.<br />

After this, in 1935, Lazar Kaganovich was named people's commissary<br />

for communications. He immediately claimed that <strong>the</strong>re were enemies <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> people camouflaging <strong>the</strong>mselves as railway workers. He demanded<br />

that those should be tracked down and exposed. In <strong>the</strong> archives, <strong>the</strong>re are<br />

32 letters from Kaganovich to <strong>the</strong> NKVD containing demands for <strong>the</strong><br />

imprisonment <strong>of</strong> 83 leading functionaries within <strong>the</strong> transport system.<br />

The book "The Wolf <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Kremlin" also relates how Lazar forced his<br />

own bro<strong>the</strong>r, Mikhail Kaganovich, to commit suicide to avoid a rigged<br />

trial, where he was to be accused <strong>of</strong> spying for <strong>the</strong> Germans. His bro<strong>the</strong>r,<br />

as I have mentioned previously, was people's commissary for aviation<br />

affairs. Kaganovich later also exterminated o<strong>the</strong>r bro<strong>the</strong>rs. He declared: "I<br />

have only one bro<strong>the</strong>r - Stalin!"<br />

Kaganovich was also behind <strong>the</strong> "five-year plan for a<strong>the</strong>ism", which<br />

began in 1932. He planned to shut <strong>the</strong> last Russian church in 1936, while<br />

God's name was supposed never to be mentioned again in <strong>the</strong> Soviet<br />

Union after 1937. The "five year plan for a<strong>the</strong>ism" was never realised,<br />

however.<br />

Kaganovich, who administrated <strong>the</strong> atrocious terror, exploited all <strong>of</strong><br />

Stalin's many weaknesses. Stalin's daughter Svetlana claimed in <strong>the</strong> West<br />

that her fa<strong>the</strong>r seemed as if possessed <strong>by</strong> demons. He was a short man,<br />

only 155 cm (5 ft 1 in) and suffered from an inferiority complex because<br />

<strong>of</strong> this. At <strong>the</strong> same time, he suffered from his somewhat stiff and<br />

shrunken left arm. He had smallpox as a teenager and his face was still<br />
