THE MICHIGAN MAIL}Y RUSHCHEV'S PREDECESSOR: leds Regret Malenkov's Exile [TOR'S NOTE: William L. eturned recently from a visit Soviet Union, his first since By WILLIAM L. RYAN Associated Press News Analyst ONE OF Moscow's more popular politicians isn't in Moscow. He's somewhere on the fringe of western Siberia, in political dis- grace. But the memory of him lingers, adding to the problems of Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, who exiled him. A returning visitor who knew the USSR seven years ago gets the impression that many a Soviet citizen regrets the downfall of Georgi M. Malenkov, Khrush- chev's predecessor as Premier. Russians liked his dreams. Un- der Malenkov, after Stalin's death, they began to lose their fear of the police state and feel relief from its more repressive aspects. Some of the notable differences between the Moscow of today and that of 1953, the year of Stalin's; death, are linked with the 1953--55 period of Malenkov's premiership.; Kindles Hopes Malenkov kindled popular hopes for living standards approaching those of Americans. To many a young Russian, such a living stan- dard would include fulfillment of his dream-his own automobile. Almost anywhere in the Soviet Union, the appearance of a late- model American automobile still creates a minor sensation. Young men and women examine it with; frank admiration, ask a flood of questions. Seldom, however, do they ask any more whether Amer- ican workers have their own cars. Russians are automobile-hungry, but most, by now, have abandoned hope of owning their own cars. Premier Khrushchev, after his United States visit, testified to the abundance of American auto- mobiles. But he told his longing public: there will be no mass pro- duction of cars for private owner- ship. In the USSR's scheme of things, cars are a luxury, Taxis and state-operated car pools would suffice. Skips Car Age The USSR almost skipped the automobile age, leaping from the velopment of a transportation sys- tem. Lack of modern road networks- to say nothing of adequate railway transportation - interferes with many areas of the economy as the regime demands more and more popular effort to overtake and sur- pass United States production. Agriculture Up Agricultural production is in- creasing all the time, but the transport system is so bad that there is a great deal of wkste and spoilage in getting the goods to its urban market. Distribution is a nagging problem. Industrial production suffers from the lack of adequate trans- port links. Even the official Soviet press concedes the USSR is backward in the fields of transportation and storage of goods. It calls this a vital central problem in develop- ment of the internal economy. The Soviet press sees no reason why the transport bottleneck should not be broken or why the Soviet storage and transporta- tion systems should not compare favorably with those of western Europe and the United States. The press demands better inter- industry and intra-industry trans- port links, better rail, water and automotive transportation of goods and a broad integrated transpor- tation system as a most important factor in releasing the country's full productive capacities. Future Better Eventually the Soviet Union will ease its transportation problems. Probably mechanization in agri- culture and automation in indus- try one day will bring the goal of a shorter work week within the grasp of a much larger group of Soviet citizens. But these develop- ments surely will have their effect upon the Soviet way of life. People who admired Georgi Malenkov's "Utopian pipe dreams" have had their appetites whetted. The Communist Party either must try to appease those appetities or return to harsher measures to curb them. And in either solution there are unpleasant risks for the fu- ture of rigid Communist party control. 'U' To Hlos t Education Conference "Prognosis for Public Education" is the theme for the 1960 Summer Education Conference, expected to draw some 500 administrators and faculty members from Michigan and surrounding states to the Uni- versity July 11 through 13. Free registration will take place outside Schorling Aud., University High School. Dean Willard C. Ol- son of the University education school is chairman of the confer- ence. Paul S. Brandwein, general edi- tor and education consultant for Harcourt Brace Publishing Co., will discuss "Invitation to Gentle Combat" at the opening sessioni of the conference July 11. In the afternoons, special in- terest groups will form to consider such subjects as teaching ma- chines, teaching practices in math- ematics, foreign languages, sci- ence, business and physical edu- cation, and school design and financial support. Contemporary and comprehen- sive displays of current textbooks,' trade books, audio-visual materials' and other school supplies, avail- able through the courtesy of over 50 publishers and school supply companies, will line the hallways of University High School for the conference. Zeff Receives Steel Award Stephen A. Zeff, Grad., of the University business administration school, has been awarded a two- year fellowship by the United States Steel Foundation to carry out research on his doctoral thesis.' The $3,000 per year fellowship was announced by Prof. Thomas G. Gies, scholarship committee chairman of the business adminis- tration school. Zeff formerly attended the Uni- versity of Colorado where . he taught in n1955-57.Hisndoctoral fields are accounting, industrial relations and management, and economics. -David Giltrow CLASSIC COASTLINE-Stretches of beach and ocean along the East coast are visited every summer by vacationers who desire the less crowded, more individualized and private spectacles offered by the Atlantic.

GEORGI MALENKOV ... former premier horse-and-wagon to jet planes. There was no gradual, widespread development of the automobile age in between. Lack of such development de- prived the Soviet economy, except at its top, heavy-industry level, of the machine-wise generations of the Western world and contrib- uted to the shortages of such skills which plague today's Soviet econ- omy. Equally important, the gap kept the USSR backward in de- velopment of its transportation system. The Communist Party is paying for that now. The party's central committee meets next week, and the top domestic question on its agenda concerns problems which have resulted from laggard de- Criticism was leveled at the high school science teacher yesterday at the Conference on Civil Engi- neering-he doesn't do enough to further the interests of engineer- ing as a career. Research studies indicate that the science teacher is the strongest influence in encouraging and aid- ing students to choose engineering as a vocation at the high school level, except for parents and friends, authors of a paper pre- sented at the opening session of the three-day conference said. It cannot be proved, the authors claimed, but this situation tends to work in favor of science and against engineering. - Authors Writers of the paper were John W. Graham, engineering college dean at the University of Roches- ter, and Thomas E. Stelson, asso- ciate professor and head of civil engineering at Carnegie Institute of Technology. The conference is sponsored by the American So- 11 ciety of Civil Engineers and Cooper Union under anNational Science Foundation grant. "More effective counseling will be needed if engineering is to at- tract its fair share of the poten- tially creative young people who may be interested in technical careers," the authors reported, "and this will demand in turn an understanding on the part of the counselor and the "counseled" of the distinction between engineer- ing and science." Essentially Inadequate Critical analysis was also turned on college engineering curricula by the educators, who stressed that training in the basic sciences, while essential, cannot approach adequacy for the training of an engineer. "In view of the, end goals of engineers and scientists, it 'Is hard to believe that the best curriculum for both can be the same curricu- lum," they declared. "Indeed, copsidering the broad spectrum of individual abilities and of functions in. which an en- gineer may be engaged- applica- tion, sales, maintenance, construc- tion, production, management, de- sign, development, research, train- ing-it is a little difficult to justify any one given curriculum as best for one branch of engineering, let alone for all branches of engi- neering." Life Complex They remarked that from the technological aspect, life is In- creasingly complex. This creates an increase in situations which lie in the "indistinct, grey area" be- tween pure science and pure engi- neering. Consequently, they added, there is a tendency for the scientist and the engineer to migrate back and forth. Social Implications of Economic Change LECTURE And while migration from engi- neering to science is not difficult because of the common scientific training basic to both fields, mi- gration in the other direction is extremely difficult, the educators said. Serious Problem "The migration of these people from science to applied science- engineering-is a serious problem for the engineering professions,"' they asserted. "They often are not properly trained, do not under- stand or accept professional re- sponsibility and tend to discredit engineering as a second-rate field, fit only for people who cannot be 'pure' scientists."
