Those Small
You mav think vou see
on the streets and roads these days, but the number
is large only in comparison with what you used to
see of them, not with the number of American cars.
Almost 200,000 (a few of them medium-sized
rather than small) will probably be sold here this
year, but that's only 3" per
car sales estimated for 1957.
e
PJNLY 25,000 or so foreign cars were imported into
the U. S. for sale in 1954, so the increase over
four years is eight-fold. Almost half the foreign cars
sold here are the German air-cooled Volkswagen.
Whereas four years ago the small foreign car was
apt to be thought "screwy," it has now become
"smart," and not only among rock-'n-rollers.
Three outstanding appeals of the small foreign
car are its easy maneuverability for parking, its
economy in gasoline and its low price. The Volks
wagen sells new in the East for around $1,500, as do
one of the French Renaults and a British-made Ford.
And the diminutive German-made Isetta 300, one
cylinder, is offered at New York for all of $998.
THE small Metropolitan sold by Nash in this coun-
try is a British product. Now comes the Scotsman,
made here by Studebaker-Packard, with a two-door
listed at $1,776. However, the price is exclusive of
what the Company calls "modest" delivery charges
and of certain accessories to which many American
car-owners have become accustomed.
To make a small car in this country costs almost
as much as to make a medium-sized one. General
Motors announced on June 20 that it is about to sell
its British made Vauxhall through Pontiac dealers
and its German-made Opel through Buick dealers.
Ford is increasing the number of its dealers offering
the various Ford models built in Britain, and Chrysler
has announced it is "keeping abreast" of what is go
ing on. E.R.R. v I

TODAY AND TOMORROW
THE PURGE OF STALINISTS
The Durse Oj! Molotov and the
five other high Soviet officials
has been made public in two
stages. In the
first, there
was an offi
cial commu
nique which
charged them
with opposing
the reforms
which have
been adopted
since the
Walter Lippmann
death and de
nudation of Stalin. In the sec
ond, they are being charged with
offenses that are capital crimes,
and could make them liable to
trial and execution.
Apparently, the Soviet Union
has not as yet reached the point
in its political development
where it can adopt a. new pol
icy without destroying the men
who stood for the old policy,
That point had not been 'reach
ed among the great powers of
Western Europe until about the
end of the seventeenth century,
There is much which suggests
that the Soviet Union, which be
longs to the twentieth century
in its technological develop
ment, is in its constitutional
practice backward by about 300
years.
The official explanation of the
purge is plausible enough if we
read it within the framework
of the primitive political theory
that a disagreement on important
matters can be solved only when
the losing faction has been des
troyed. It is a recent and very
advanced idea that there can be
indeed that there ought to be
such a thing as a loyal opposi
tion. -
.
AT the level of policy, Khru
schev's rnmnlaint apaincr
Molotov is that he has become
a narrow-minded and cantanker
ous old fogey. As such, he has
made himself the leader of
faction in a state where faction
alism is a crime, is treason
against the sacred deposit of
Leninism and the laws of the
revolution. Molotov has, says the
communique, been at variance
with the party line," which
means not merely that he has
voted against it but that he has
been conspiring against the
party. He has "failed to see the
new conditions, the new situa
tion" which has existed since the
death of Stalin. He has taken "a
conservative attitude," clinging
to "obsolete forms and methods
of work that are no longer in
keeping with the interests of
the advance toward Commu
nism.
Thus in domestic affairs Mol
otov has opposed the policy of
appeasing the national feelings
of the constituent republics. He
has been opposed to the decen
tralization of the industrial ma
chine. He has been opposed to
offering the peasants greater ec
onomic rewards, and he has been
opposed to the agrarian policy
which aims at more production
of milk, butter and eggs.
In foreign policy, Molotov
showed narrow-mindedness and
hampered in every way" meas
ures "to erase international ten
sions." He opposed the Austrian
Treaty. He opposed the 'normal
ization" of relations with Japan.
He opposed improved relations
with Tito. He opposed the good
will missions which Bulganin
and Khruschev have been mak
ing to foreign countries.
m m m
IfHILE the size and fury of the
''purge indicate that the Stal
inists' opposition to Khruschev
has been formidale, we can be
reasonably certain that for some
time to come Khruschev's new
policies will prevail. He will at
tempt to' govern the Soviet Un
ion not, of course, with the ac
tive consent of all its peoples
but, with sufficient leniency and
favor to win their passive as
sent. He believes he can do this,
as he said on Saturday in a
speech at Leningrad, by "catch
ing up with the United States
of America" not in its constitu
tional development but "in in
dustrial production per capita of

Lippmann
population" and "in the produc
tion of meat, milk and butter."
He will attempt also to con
solidate what he calls the Com
munist camp the collection of
countries which extends from
North Korea and China and
North Viet Nam on the Pacific
to East Germany and the line of
the Iron Curtain. There, he will
turn away from Stalinism, which
regards this vast territory as an
empire with its capital in Mos
cow; he will turn toward the
kind of federated association of
national communist states, with
the Soviet Union as the senior
partner.
e
llfHEN we-ask ourselves what
this is likely to mean in our
relations with Russia, we shall
do best, I think, to regard the
Khrushchev reforms as aimed
at stabilization within the So
viet Union and within the Com
munist orbit. Khrushchev be
lieves that Stalinism, stubborn
ly and relentlessly pursued,
would have made the Commu
nist world unmanageable. It
would have led to the kind of
'internal convulsion which, it ap
pears, is what Mr. Dulles has
been hoping and waiting for.
Khrushchev's efforts are an at
tempt to save Communism from
this disaster, and to provide it
with a basis in nationalist and
popular feeling on which it can
maintain itself and endure.
This may well prove to be an
historic change. But we must be
careful not to confuse a change
of policy within the Soviet Un
ion with the hope that Khrush
chev is now going to agree with
us about Germany and Korea
and Formosa and the like. Al
most surely, the change makes
it more than ever unlikely that
the Soviet Union will undertake
itself, or promote among its sat
ellites, an overt military aggres
sion. But, on the other hand, this
does not mean that they are like
ly to make the kind of conces
sion which our German policy
demands of them.
The probability is that the in
ternational effect of the Khrush
chev reforms will be to reduce
certain of the weaknesses with
in the Soviet Union, and thus
to promote not agreement and
not a settlement but, peaceful
coexistence.

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
One hears a great deal these
days about teacher shortages.
There is apparently no teacher
shortage in California's major
cities meaning by that an Fran
cisco, and Los Angeles.
This is stated on the authority
of a young woman who came out
to San Francisco from Chicago
two or three weeks ago to visit
a ' friend. Like all Easterners
(Chicago is "East" to us out here
on the Pacific Coast, even if in
New York it is regarded as the
wild and woollly West) she fell
in love with California, and said
to herself: "THIS is for me."
So she started looking for a
job. (Excuse that, please. When
one is a teacher, one doesn't
start looking for a job. One ap
plies for a position which is
what she did.)
OHE discovered rather quickly
" that no positions were open
in the upper echelons of the San
Francisco school system. She
could have started at the bottom,
but since she is fairly well up
the ladder in her home city that
is not particularly appealing.
And
Of course-
She could have gone out into
one of California's smaller cities,
where the competition is not so
keen. But, in this modern world
when one gets placed in a metro
politan city, where the lights
are bright, one doesn't like to go
out into the country.
VlfHAT she has Is a good posi
" tion in a good organization.
If she sits tight and keeps up
with her profession, she will
keep moving on toward the top
of the ladder, which is something
to be considered.
Then
There is something else.
She has been once already to
Europe. She loves it. She wants
to go again. She feels that even
in Chicago she will be far near
er to Europe than she would be
cut here on the western rim of
the continent.
In San Francisco, she tells her
self, she would be as far from
the Atlantic seaboard, which is
the point of departure for Eur
ope, as she would be from mid
Europe itself in Chicago.
And so on.
What she is trying to do is to
convince herself that the thing
to do is to STAY PUT instead of
dashing off into the unknown. It
is an ancient process. I'm quite
sure the early American colonists
went through it when they were
trying to decide whether to stay
at home and be safe and certain
or to take off for the facinating
New World.
117HAT will this young woman
do?
She'll wind up in the West. If,
by the time she makes up her
rnind, standing room is no longer
available in California, she'll
burn her bridges behind her and
take off for Oregon or Washington-
maybe Arizona or New
Mexico.
meter. This is all right for an
hour or so but many rural pa
trons have need of extended
parking privileges.
If the anxious merchants
would look into this matter it
would greatly lessen the com
petitive danger of a Sears with
ample parking facilities.
If Sears are allowed to settle
where they wish, even a child
can see the new revenue to the
city, the additional employment.
and the extra inducement to
other business firms to settle
here.
Let's throw away the mustache
cup, take off our nigh button
shoes and permanently park the

la ii iSm-tum
of Soviet Communist leaner
Nikita S. Khrushchev over his
enemies in the Russian collec
tive dictatorship is a victory for
Tito. Gomulka and Mao also.
Tito broke away from Rus
sian domination in 1948. Go
mulka won a great measure of
independence as the result of
his skillful course in last fall's
Polish Revolt. Mao never has
regarded China as a Soviet satel
lite. There have been sharp diver
gences between these three lead
ers and the Russians on matters
of Communist doctrine.
There has been intermittent
feuding between Tito and Soviet
leaders for nine years. Mao criti
cized Russia's brutal suppression
of the Hungarian revolt and gave
possibly decisive support to Go
mulka in Poland's rebellion
against Russian domination.
Two of the three biggest
Soviet leaders purged in the
Kremlin shake-up were old-line
"Stallinists" who held that Mos
cow, was the supreme fountain
head of Communist wisdom.
This seems to make it likely
that there will be much closer
cooperation in future between
the Russians and the supporters
of "national" Communism.
Mao Tse-Tung is expected to
be in Warsaw on July 22 for a
state visit to Poland. Unless he
changes his mind as the result of
the purge, he will not visit Mos
cow until after he leaves Po
land, even though he must pass
through Russia to get there. The

The chairman has not come
up with much specific proof of

little known story of the ad

good evidence that news report

King's fellow officers will never

ever could have taken up with
their likes.
King did, however, and how
and why make one of the better
hidden stories of the late, great
war.
Prestige Hard Hit
Arlington is a county in Vir
ginia across the Potomac from
Washington. The commandos
were organized in October, 1942,
shortly after Navy prestige was
hard hit again with announce
ment of the loss of five cruisers
in the Solomons Islands. Three
were American the brightly
new Quincy, Vincennes and As
toria. The late Cornelius Bull, a for
mer newsman and husband of
the admiral's niecesensed that
the Navy was in for some hard
going. Bull took a chance.
Despite his knowledge that
next to Japanese and Germans,
King most disliked newsmen,
Neely Bull proposed to the ad
miral that he meet a hand-picked
group of Washington reporters.
Within a fortnight a chilly
meeting took place in Bull's Ar- j

little, explained a bit and
stiffly answered questions.

Russians did not like that idea
and tried hard to get him to
give Moscow priority.
Now there is every indication
that when Mao does visit Mos
cow, his visit will be much more
friendly than was expected.
It will be surprising if Tito
does not visit Moscow soon for
a gettogether, or if Khrushchev
and Premier Nikolai A. Bulgan
in do not visit him in Belgrade.
There are likely to be some
important developments during
the present visit of Khrushchev
and Bulganin to Czechoslovakia.
Czechoslavakia, East Germany,
Romania, Bulgaria and Albania
are all under the rule of hide
bound "Stalinist" leaders. Pre
mier Janos Kadar of Hungary
is a puppet. He necessarily fol
lows the Moscow ine but he
has "Stalinist" enemies among
Hungarian Communists.
So far, it has not become ap
parent whether there is to be a
big purge of the "Stalinists" in
these countries.
Some of them may be forced
out. But some or all of them may
succeed in getting themselves
aboard the band wagon and an
nouncing that they really have
been "different roads to social
ism" men all along.
The prospect of an easing up
in party-line doctrine is being
welcomed in Western countries.
But Tito, Gomulka and Mao are
all Communist dictators. Closer
relations between them and the
Russians may or may not ease
up East-West tension.

A third meeting came after a

They continued throughout
the war in an atmosphere of real
warmth and friendship. King's
frankness sometimes was fright

The commandos alone knew
how and why Gen. Dwight D.
