TTT KREMLIN RIVALRY __ 1, 2 a The announcement that Soviet Secret Police chief, Lavrenti Beria had been fired by Russia's ruling Com-| rift among the inner-| munist surprised the world. The circle leaders in Moscow arrived even sooner than most Americans had anticipated. There has been a general suspicion among U. 8. experts that the ruling clique inside the Kremlin would eventually split. However,.no one could be sure that the break-up would come only a few months after Stalin’s death. The firing of Beria, the ruthless Secret Service chieftain who carried out some of Stalin’s bloodiest purges, seems to prove that Georgi Malenkov has won his fight for su- breme control among Communist leaders. For some time, especially in recent weeks, it has been suspected that Beria’s powers were increasing steadily. This might have been true, and might have been the threat which prompt- ed Malenkov to take decisive action to dispose of him be- fore he was inclined to do likewise with Malenkov. While the world will have to wait a little while to get an accurate view on the results and importance of the Beria dismissal, a tentative appraisal is that the change justifies cautious optimism. The break-up in the Soviet Supreme Command naturally wea the entire Com- tmunist organization. It is a further jon that Russia, and the Russian leaders, are not the moment prepared to precipitate an international crisis. This should afford Americans some relief in the cold war. THE VACATION INDUSTRY The American Automobile Association has estimated that motorists, vacationing in the forty-eight states this) year, will spend more than $9,000,000,000. This figure shows the extent of the new industry which has sprung Up in the United States with the coming of the automobile ‘and the national highway system. Tt is estimated that about 65,000,000 Americans, men, women and children, will be on the nation’s high-' ‘ways this summer alone, while another nine or ten mil- lion will travel in other conveyances to some vacation land. The 65,000,000 automobile travellers comprise a market group which was almost non-existent twenty-five years ago. ‘They have become a major consumer group and the motivation for an entirely new industry—the vacation in- dustry. One of the symbols of this new industry is the By SAM DAWSON ing tire companies are working hard on the tire of tomorrow. Some say the tire that will last ‘as long as your car is no pipe work out.
