When the writer read the paragraph, he cited «to Mr. Artman half a dozen cases in Key ‘West that prov- ‘ed what he said was a fact. In one instance particularly, many Key Westers, as they went:to the polls, were so by their prejtidice they openly remarked, for who- wished to hear, that they were not voting nd-So , but vy were voting against his opponent.

Yugoslavia cc- operates in the Western defense effort not out of admiration but because it fears the glowering So- viet Union. Western cbservers here seem to have a few illusions: The Tito regime is a tight police state, in many respects a vest pocket edition of the Soviet system. Tito, though cast out of the Com- inform fold since 1948, learned his Bolshevism from Moscow. Like icta- torship c? the few over the kept in ‘power ty legions of secret informers. About a half million party members rule 16-millica persons. Probably. a large bloc of mem- bers within the Communist party would as soon go over to Moscow if the chance arose. So long as Tito has his secret police and con- trols the army, that will not hap- pen. - The disgrunted Communists will stay qitiet to save their skins. But Tito's police boss, Interior Minister Alexander Rankovic, is aware of such feeling. Westerners in Belgrade say there are daily roundups and trials of. actual and patential a sympathizers with the Cominform. a matters stand, Tito seems ful- capable of retaining control.

Paraphrased, it would go like this: Things have changed. in the three decades since the shevik revolution. Nations of the West are moving leftward too. There is a possibility that instead of clashing, they will one day come together in common agreement. Milevan Djilas, another leading | theoretician, has been freetting | atout a serious ideological crisis in “the general progressive move- ment.” He tells the party the cri- | sis is temporary, resulting from “objective changes in Si cusibeci: bon DAILY! ’ i Airlines ROUND TRIPS — 47 MIN.
