Seriously III
Moscow -ICPU- Marshal Ni
kolai Bulganin, who was re
placed as premier last April,
is seriously ill and undergoing
medical treatment in Moscow,
reliable sources said today.
Nature of his illness was

nin had undergone an opera
tion in a Moscow hospital.
Last week Khrushchev de

conclude Bulganin had been
removed from his job in Stavropol.
