Romania Demands Economic Revision
CLAS SIFIEDS
But the share of the West has
increased steadily recently.
"And when we enter into con-
tracts with Western firms for the
erection and equipment of indus-
trial projects in our country, then
it is only natural that the tech-
nicians and other specialists of
these firms come here to work."
In the immediate postwar per-
iod, after the monarchy was over-
thrown and Communism took
over, only Soviet experts were seen
in Romania. Today there are not
more than a handful of them,
while Western experts - from
England, France, West Germany,
Italy and Austria-number about
500.
Galati Mills
A focal point for the Roman-
ian-Soviet quarrel is Galati, an
industrial city located in north
eastern Romania near the mouth
of the Danube River. At the Ro-
manian Party Congress of 1960
the ambitious scheme was ap-
proved of building a great steel
complex at Galati.
This is to have a production of
four million tons annually, more
than one and a half times the
present total annual production
for all of Romania. According to
the plan laid down then, the.So-
viet Union was to provide at least
two of the four units called for,
but the only work contracted for
to date, a $39 million rolling mill,
will be carried. out by a French-
British combination.
The Soviet Union, considering
this project over-ambitious for a
small country, has given the im-
pression that it wants no part of
the development at Galati. The
Romanian Communist leadership
is not being deterred.
West Negotiations
Nicolae Murgulet, director of
the Planning Institute for the
Metallurgical Industry and chief
of operations for Galati, reported
that negotiations are underway
with French, West German, Eng-
lish and Austrian firms over
further work at Galati - but not
with the Soviet Union.
Western observers in Bucharest
doubt that the strain in relations
with the Soviet Union threatens
to lead to a spectacular break.
They tend to see it as a part of
a loosening up of the Communist
bloc, developing inevitably as the
smaller countries recover from the
immediate postwar period and re-
assert themselves.
The British put up a $22 mil-
lion tire factory outside of Buch-
arest, with a capacity of one mil-
lion tires a year. They have pro-
vided machines for the cellulose
industry and dairying.
Austrian Works
Austria 'has delivre dc mainly
equipment for hydro and thermo-
electric projects.
The West Germans are big in
s y n t h e t i c fibers, metallurgy,
equipment for oil refineries.
An Italian firm equipped the
huge cafeteria at a new student
center for the University of
Bucharest. The Italians, gener-
ally, have had a lot to do with
building up the candy industry.
New Buildings
Communist Romania is a coun-
try with new, brightly painted
apartment buildings in the cities
and lines of housewives waiting
outside butcher shops for scarce
meat.,
But in many of its agricultural
areas, where two-thirds of the
country's people live, conditions
match the prewar squalor for
which the Balkans were notorious.
Comrade citizens take low-
priced vacations at Riviera-like
Black Sea resorts, but red and
white booths stand at all major
highway crossings. The police-
men inside note down license
plate numbers and keep track of
the movement of all traffic
throughout the country, in the
best police-state manner.
Dramas by Tennessee Williams
and Friedrich Duerrenmatt are
staged, but non-Communist West-
ern publications cannot be found
at the newsstands.
Bucharest used to be known as
"the little Paris of the Balkans,"
and during the Nazi period was
a famous center for prostitutes,
but today there are just two dec-
orous and dull night clubs in the
city.
Tell of Move
Signs throughout the country-
like smaller copies of billboards
along highways in the United
States - tell the people in per-
centages and graphs that they
are producing more oil, more.
steel, more paper, more trucks,
more everything.
Despite this self-advertising,
the standard of living remains
low, though the consensus is
there has been some improvement
since the prewar days of ladies'
man King Carol, his mistress Ma-
dame Lupescu and the Fascist
Iron Guard.
The average family has an in-
come of about $50 a month. At
least 70 per cent of this is spent
on food. Supplies are limited but
generally adequate, at least in the
cities, with the exception of fresh
meat, which is in chronic short
supply.
Rural Poverty
Extreme poverty can still be
seen in the countryside. Ragged,
unshaven peasants live much as
their grandfathers did.
At the University of Bucharest,
a student whispered "lies" as the
administrative director described
how fine life was there.
Despite a prohibition against
talking with Westerners, this stu-
dent arranged a meeting for later
toy give his version of conditions.
He was seconded, by some of his
friends, also students, who came
along.
Stiffling Humanity
Their big complaint was that
the Communist system was stifling
them as human beings.'
According to them, at least half
the 9,500 young Romanians and
East bloc foreigners at the Uni-
versity of Bucharest - which
has 14 per cent of the total Uni-
versity enrollment in the whole
country - are hostile to the
Gheorghiu-Dej government and
all it stands for.
Furthermore, none of the stu-
dents professed to think very
much of Romania's material
progress under Communism.

CONCERNING the Kitten naming con-
test:
If you can't make up your mind,
call him Nemo which means "no
man"-after all, he isn't a man, but
a kitten. P.S. Where in East Quad
was he born?
Response: First of all you are right
he/she (we haven't determined) is
not much of a man.. . Secondly, how-
ever you lose. The kitten was not born
in E. Quad. unless the quad has be-
come co-ed recently.
