Sillcox, executive vice president of the New York Airbrake Company, pointed out that the coal industry of the future will be radically different from the industry of today. By the end of the century he foresees technological improvements that will inrease the rate of production at least five times that of tfe present. He believes that the coal will be crushed, cleaned and sent by pipeline to cen- ters where there are adequate supplies of water. The ex- | perimental pipeline of the Pittsburgh-Consolidation Coal Company is an indication of what we may expect. Dr. Sillcox expects a world shortage of petroleum in 1980, when the world will need 40 per cent more oil than it produces. At that time, the United States will be producing an estimated one billion barrels as compared o an annual five-billion-barrel need. Of course, it is virtually impossible for atyone to predict what will be needed twenty-eight years from now. None of us knows what the developments in the field of atomic energy will be, and how that will affect other sources of energy. As a matter of fact, for all we know, a practical method for harnessing the energy of the sun may be developed before 1980.

But the Bul- garian people don’t guess. They know tnere is only one boss, and his name is Stalin. In Bulgaria, most Sovietized of | all the captive countries of Eu- rope, the Premier acts like a vest- | Pocket edition of the dictator in| Mcscow. . . but Premier Vulko Chervenkov must be uneasy Like Stalin, the stycky little | Che: venkov lets the whole popula- tion know when he ventures out} of doors. Just like the Kremlin | escats, the heavily armed, bullet- Proof cars which escort the Bul- garian Premier open their sirens | and careen down the highway at brea'neck speed. The premier himself rides in a Soviet 110, Moscow Zversion of the Packard. The escort cars are Packards, one old, the others somewhat newer. All are crammed with bodyguards. When the motorcade wheels out of the Villa Balbanov, where Cher- venkov lives in luxury, @nd screams down the Boulevard Rus- ko, all traifie comes to a stop— just as it does when Stalin’s car leaves the Kremlin. The route is lined by a forest of heavily armed sentries at military posts. Cherven- kov is on his way. Ite may be on his way out. As in other captive countries, | there is a struggle going on at the4 top in Bulgaria. Many European sources express belief that Cher- venkov, 50-year-old _ professional Communist with Moscow training, | is simply a figurehead. The power behind the scenes, they say, is Georgi Chankov, a deputy prime | minister—and behind him, the Rus- Sians. Chervenkoy, rough-and-tumble Communist veteran of many jails Since he joined the party in 1919) as a youngster, is related by mar- |riage to the late Georgi Dimitrov, the old Bolshevik Bulgarian Pre- mier who went to Moscow for a “cure” and never returned. Today, Dimitrov’s followers are dropping by the wayside, one by one. Another show trial may not be far off. Recently there has been @ severe purge of Cabinet func- tionaries and high officials, includ- ing Boris Taskov, president of the State Reserves Department which stocks strategic materials; Kyril Dramaliev, a Dimitrov Commu-' nist intellectual in the same de- partment, and Prof. Sava Ganoy- ‘ski, a Dimitroy man who headed the Science and Culture Division of the Cabinet. Chankov may be behind this or possibly the man behind it all is | Peter Panchevsky, Moscow's vice- |roy who, as defense minister runs the Bulgarian Army. He is a So- viet general. In his respect, it is significant that Taskov was fired shortly aft- er he dared criticize Vice Premier Ivan Mikhailov, who is the eyes | w in Sofia, even super- | ising Chervenkov. Mikhailov, too, was a Soviet general. All the old intelligentsia of the Party is being weeded out. This means the Dimitrov people. They | are disappearing in favor of the | Soviet fanatics, The opposition parties in Bul Saria long ago were stamped out after Nikola Yetkov, the Peasant Party leader, was hanged in 1947 on a charge of anti-state activity is there religious voice | Nor heard save that of the priests of | the dominat Orthodox Church Three years ago, to the accom. | Paniment of out s of | from the Western Id. | ia’s Ce unists tried and condemned to prison the le Protestant clergy of the coun wor the Peasants on Dr. J.

Wherever there is resistance to collective farming, the militia is busy. In some instances the militia surrounds a village, arrests the citizens, loads them into cattle cars | and transports them to the prov- inces for foreed labor. The split between the people and j the party widens daily. Bulgars jresent the concerted drive to Rus- sify them. Though closely tied to Russia by language and racial similarities, they have at radition of independent spirit which balks | at Russian domination. | But their army is fully under | Russian control. Deportations of large numbers | of people are reported beginning | anew, particularly from areas near | the western and southern frontiers. Many non-Communists are being expelled from big cities to make room for industrial workers. The former Peasant Premier of Bulgaria, Georgi M. Dimitrov—no relation to the Communist Dimit- | rov—predicts that many Commp- | nists, fearing the peasants, will “try to adapt themselves to the | Peasant resistance because of} their fears of tomorrow.’ Dimitrov lives in exile in the | States and is secretary | general of the International Peas- | ant Union. Far from giving up hope, he says, the leaders abroad of the enslaved peoples in Eastern rope cling to the belief the « jof reckoning is coming the Communist empire will fall apart.
