The heightened activity displayed by Marxist historians converted the congress into a forum of propagating the Marxist conception of history. Having repulsed the attempts of the falsifiers of history, arid the enemies of socialism to divert the congress from discussing scientific questions and convincingly demonstrated the utter futility and groundlessness of their sallied against the Marxist appraisal of events. Marxist historians engaged in a businesslike; constructive and useful dialogue with representatives of other trends and proponents of different views.

The article examines the history of the shields of arms adopted b different Russian towns. In Ancient Rus there existed city emblems. Owing to the specific features attending the development of the towns during the period when the country was subjected by the Golden Horde, these emblems were not converted into shields of arms.

G. A. TROFIMENRO. Evolution of U. 5. Military-Political Strategy After the Second World War

Drawing on a number of official U. S. documents, the author closely examines the stages of the evolution which occurred in America's military-political strategy after the Second World War. Under the influence of objective factors the U. S. Administration was adapting its strategy to the changing world situation, going over from the tough strategy of "containment" at the height of the cold war to the more flexible military-strategic conceptions.

L. I. GOLMAN. Frederick Engels and Certain Problems of Historical Cognition

A comprehensive analysis of Engels' works and letters has enabled the author to show the inestimable contribution made by this great founder of scientific communism to the elaboration of the cardinal methodological questions of historical science. The article examines the views of Frederick Engels on the correlation between historical science and its methodological basis-historical materialism, on the tasks and aims of historical research, on the ways and methods of establishing historical truth. Particular attention is devoted to Engels' views concerning the specific features of historical cognition, his approach to the analysis of historical sources, his understanding of the leading place belonging to dialectical logic in the process of summarizing historical facts and evolving historical conceptions. Another important question on which the author briefly touches in his article is the interpretation given by Frederick Engels to the partisanship of historical science, its cognitive value and educational significance, his definition of the role it plays in social life, in the political and ideological struggle.
