Perhaps the infamous Valentine Smith? 1) How many people did Stalin have killed during his purges? 2) How many Armenians were killed inm Turkey earlier in this century? I hear wildly different numbers and I am a Social Studies teacher and would appreciate the info, and any commentary anyone could give. Kieran OConnor Syracuse NY
