O People Read SPOT ADS Anti-Stalin Line Studied WASHINGTON Ifl A high State Department official said Saturday that sensational Russian attacks on the late Joseph Stalin's one man rule may have been designed to make it difficult for any Soviet leader to rise above "the ruling clique." Deputy Undersecretary of State Robert Murphy gave the first de tailed official comment here on the repudiation of Stalin in speech prepared for a luncheon meeting of the George Washing ton University alumni. He said the current "rewriting of history in Russia is a ' start ling example" of the one-sided- ness of Soviet education which produces acceptance of opinions handed down from the govern ment "without question and with out understanding." While the Soviet leadership Is now emphasizing collective rule, Murphy asserted that "it may be significant" that the party ma chinery apparently has been re organized to include more people with ties to Nikita Khrushchev, the Communist party boss. He implied that the State De partment is watching this develop ment closely lo determine whether Khrushchev, despite his denuncia tion of Stalin and of one-man rule, is moving to grab ultimate power for himself. Murphy said the State Depart ment still lacks "factual Informa tion" on the reported denunciation of Stalin at last month's Commu nist party Congress in Moscow. News reports from Europe and unofficial information received by the State Department say that Khrushchev called Stalin a mur derer and a blunderer In the course of a lengthy speech not yet made public.

These charges caused the State Department to cancel a projected new good-will tour by the concert group, which It sent to Asia last year. David Walter, chairmin of the board of the Symphony of the Air, suggested "there may have been one or two disgruntled people who were peeved and set this thing in motion."

If so. the clouds are added evi dence for a theory that Mars Is racked by volcanoes. Wind-blown deposits of volcanic ash could cause some of Mars' strange marking, including; perhaps some "canals. Bv this theory. Mars might still be in early stages of changes such as the earth experienced 'before life appeared on this planet. The volcanic theory Is advanced by Dr. Dean B. McLaughlin of the University of Michigan. He has proposed that some dark areas sometimes thought to be vegeta tioncould bs drifts of .volcanic ash. Some so-called canals might be pathways of fallen ash, and others might be cracks or faults on Mars' face. The Earth's oceans are perhaps due to water brought up from its j interior by volcanoes. Mars might I be in the same process now, with oceans yet to come to spawn life. Today Dr. McLaughlin told the American Astronomical aocieiy that some observations of Martian clouds are at least consistent wun the theory of volcanic activity. From a check of various as tronomers' sightings of clouds, he said that clouds have been ob served Intermittently for the last 25 years over one particular area. These clouds therefore seem as sociated with some mechanism at a fixed spot on the face of Mars. On earth, clouds often rise regu larly along mountain chains, but Mars has no large mountain ranges. Dr. McLaughlin said. And apparently there is not much water vapor on Mars to form ordi nary clouds. Within past decades, the shape of some of the dark-colored areas near cloud spots has changed, he added.
