Russia Said To Be
Up Against Serious
Economic Troubles
London IPi Soviet Commu
nist Party boss Nikita Khrush
chev's recent boast that Russia
would overtake the United
Stat'Q economic lead in a few
years looked like the worst
guess of the year today.
The Chatham House Review,
a Royal Institute for Foreign
Affairs publication, in an assess
ment of the Soviet Union's cur
rent problems, said Russia pres
ently is facing one of its most
xcrious post-war internal crises.
Serious Domestic Crisis
"The Soviet Union is at pres
ent involved in a domestic crisis
more serious than any she has
met since the endj of the last
war." the review said.
"The apparatus which stfrved
the country through 25 years
that Stalin was at the helm of
a highly centralized and tightly
controlled economy seems to
have reached the limits of its
effectivenuess."
Khrushchev's latest strategy
of decentralizing economic plan
ning is an attempt to remedy
the ills caused by the Stalin
type tight controls. But whether
it will work remains to be seen
For some time, for instance,
official analysts have suspected
Internal pressure behind Mos
cow's sudden anxiety for some
disarmament agreement with
the West. The findings by the
authoritative Chatham House
Review now tend to support
those suspicions that the Krem
lin wants a respite to tend its
internal ills.
Some Ills Emerge Openly
Russian affairs experts have
discerned growing economic
troubles in the Soviet Union in
recent months, despite Moscow's
attempts to cover up. Some of
these difficulties began, to
emerge openly, and many more
became apparent as a result of
Khrushchev's decentraliza tiou
drive.
But the experts have conclud
ed that Khrushchev is tending
to attack the symptoms rather
than the causes of the contra
dictions inherent in the Soviet
system. They predict that Rus
sia's economy will continue to
face considerable trouble in the
immediate and near future.
' Organizational handicaps.
shortage of raw materials and
manpower, and commitments to
underdeveloped countries and
the satellites are among the un
foreseen factors responsible for
current setbacks to the Soviet's
plans.
Wheat Price Supports
To Average $2 Bushel
Wellington 1IP1 The Agricul
ture Department has confirmed
that it will support 1957 crop
wheat prices at a national aver
age price of S2 a bushel.
The S2 rate originally was an
nounced July 2, 1956, but the
department is required by law
to redetermine the support level
on the basis of the4 parity price
of wheat at the beginning of the
marketing year (July 1).

Mrs. White, of Houston, was

Mrs. White said she recited

"some other things I don't care
to remember."
