THE FALL
OF KHRUSHCHEV
The experts 'have been burning up the airwaves with their,
opinions of tne Khrushchev ouster.
If Nikita has not taken another demotion by the1 time you
read this, we’ve some reasons of our own for Mr. K’s downfall.
Here they are:
1) . The trouble with Red China. With Nikita at the helm, the
rift would widen and dissipate Soviet Russia’s prestige and thus
weaken her greatest exportable product internationally: Soviet
Russian Communism. Few people realize that there isn’t just one
brand of Communism. There are various brands: Yugoslavian, Red
Chinese, Cuban, Polish, Albanian, French and Italian are some ex-
amples. These are predicated on a central leader as Tito in Yugo-
slavia; on the particular politics of a country as in France and
Italy or an entente with a “mother country” as Albania to China
or Cuba with Soviet Russia. The eye-wash peered to Moscew be-
cause Moscow was top-dog until the emergence of Red-China. Now
Red China appears to be taking the play away from Moscow. Get-
ting Khrushchev ta step down can allow a superficial rapproach-
nuent.
2) The obvious failure in the agricultural field. Khrushchev
had to purchase huge quantities of wheat from the United States
and Canada Part of this was diverted to Cuba and to other Com-
munist supported nations for political and propaganda PurP°s<f
But it was evident that the Soviet Farm Program had failed. More-
over the huge expenditures that were flowing into defence* for
^ was the perfect patsy. Now, with a new regime in control,
things could be different.
3.) The Presidium was above Khrushchev’s rantings and rav-
ings. It had had enough of tantrums and United Nations shoe-
stompings. The following release from Pravda, official Commu-
nist Party mouthpiece, said on October 17, 1964, that the Com-
munist Party and the Soviet Union could not “tolerate armchair
? methods personal decisions and disregard for the practical ex-
1 perience ot the masses.” It further castigated Khrushchev for “hair
| brained scheming, immature conclusions and hasty decisions and
I actions, individualistic bragging and phrase-mongering command-
| ism and unwillingness to take into account the achievements of
# science and practical experience. ’
f
| The above are ihree oi the most prominent guesses for the
I' change. One must also consider the fact that Khrushchev had
I served a decade and this could have well been his optimum in
| the Master-Plan of Soviet Administration. Soviet Russia may be
going through a mutation in its political and economic thinking.
Khrushchev’s removal may be one current step in that process.

Pope Backs Liberal
Stand on Jews
ROME (JTA)—Pope Paul
VI has responded to an ap-
peal by liberal cardinals
oil majority on controversial
key Issues.
American, European and Latin
attending the Ecumenical American cardinals made their
appeal to the Pope on Sunday
night, after they met to review
what they called “the gravest
crisis” of the entire Council.
They expressed fears that the
Vatican Coordinating Commission
and the Council presidency, staff-
ed mainly by conservative ad-
ministrators from the Vatican
Curia, were determined to wa-
ter down Council actions already
faken on the ittj issues. The
i Curia is the central administra-
Council, and overruled con-
servative prelates and Vatican
officials who reportedly have
been striving to dilute a draft
declaration on Catholic - Jewish
relations and freedom of con-
science.
An official source said that
the Pope acted after 15 prom-
inent cardinals asked him to
intervene to prevent the con-
servative prelates from “sabo-
taging” tne desires of the Cou«-
tion of the Catholic Church.
The exact content of the
draft declaration on Jews, at
the present stage, has not been
disclosed. The original draft,
prepared by Cardinal Bea’s sec-
retariat, absolved all Jews, past
and president, of responsibility
for the crucifixion of Jesus,
called on Catholics to purge
themselves of anti - Semitism
stemming from the charge, and
strongly condemned all anti-
Semitic manifestations.
Before the third session open-
ed, last Sept. 14, word leaked out
that the draft had been changed.

Israel, Bonn Seen Heading
For Period of Heavy Strain
JERUSALEM—Relations between Israel and Western
Germany seem to be heading for a period of heavy strain.
The recent statement by Bonn’s Chancellor Erhard, that
he saw no way for legislative action to bar West German
scientists from working in Egypt, evoked deep resentment

many governments for his serv
ices to humanity. As the first
