By The Associated Press

The National Safety Council estimated that 45 millio
vehicles-13 for each mile of the nation's road and street n

NSC predicted 535 Americans will be killed in trafficr
during the extended weekend that began at 6 p.m. yester
will end at midnight Sunday. -----

That many deaths would set a
new record for the Fourth of July
holiday period.
The current high mark-491-
was set during a four-day celebra-
tion of Independence Day in 1950.
Up to midnight (EDT) the death
toll stood at 5, including 2 traffic,
2 drownings and a miscellaneous.
Motor vehicle deaths so far this
year have failed to match last
year's high rate.
Through the first five months
of 1957 fatalities have averaged
95 per day.
The Associated Press made a
survey of a recent nonholiday per-
iod to establish a statistical basis
for comparison with the loss of
life during the current holiday
period.
There were 347 traffic deaths in
the survey period-from 6 p.m.

Individual work will include the

mittee and the Presidium -
Politburo.
The Central Committee elected
a new Presidium including Mar-
shal Georgi K. Zhukov, World
War II hero of Moscow, and Mrs.
Ekaterina Furtseva, the first wo-
man on the ruling party body.
Tass said Mrs. Furtseva made
the announcement of this far-
reaching shakeup to a mass meet-
ing of Communist party members,
apparently convened in the Krem-
lin, explaining that the four ac-
cused had been decisively con-
demned for antiparty activities
"directed at breaking up the
party."
The list of new Presidium mem-
bers indicated that Maxim Sabur-
ov and M. G. Pervukhin, two lead-
ing economic and industrial ex-
perts of the Soviet Union, also
had been demoted.
They were not listed as mem-
bers or alternates of the new Pre-
sidium, although the official com-

munique did not mention them
munique did not mention them in
connection with offenses against
the party.
The newly elected Presidium-~-
successor to the Politburo of Stal-
in's day - included the names of
only six of the 11-member group
elected in February 1956.
The event, evidently the biggest
shakeup since Stalin died in 1953,
was foreshadowed by an angry
editorial in Pravda Tuesday warn-
ing that no man was too big to
be expelled from the party.
Malenkov and Molotov, both
former premiers; Kaganovich, a
first deputy premier and indus-
trial expert, and Shepilov, a prop-
aganda expert and former foreign
minister, were dropped from the
Presidium, the most powerful body
in the U.S.S.R., and from the
party Central Committee. Shepil-
ov was fired as an alternate mem-
ber of the Presidium and from his
post as one of the party's secre-
taries.
The six holdovers in the Presi-
dium are Premier Nikolai Bulgan-
in, Ukraine party boss A. I. Kir-
ichenko, party First Secretary
Nikita S. Khrushchev, the trade
expert and deputy premier, A. I.
Mikoyan, the party theoretician,
M. A. Suslov, and the old Soviet
warhorse, Marshal Klimenti Voro-
shilov, who is president of the
U.S.S.R.
Moscow's statement said the
group worked against the deci-
sions of the 20th Communist par-
;y Congress of February 1956, and
tried "to impose wrong ideas," It
acused Molotov specifically of
having hindered the Soviet gov-
ernment's policy of "peace among
peoples."
Khrushchev eased Malenkov
out of the leading party position
soon after Stalin's death and later
was instrumental in causing Mal-
enkov to step down as premier'
with a confession of inability to
to the job.

On Firings
By FRED KATZ
The la t e s t of the Russian
"housecleanings" - demotion of
Malenkov, Molotov, Kaganovich
and Shepilov among others-came
with no actual forewarnings, Prof.
Preston W. Slosson of the history
department said yesterday.
Interviewed by telephone, Prof.
Slosson said, "This is the typd' of
thing that is always liable to hap-
pen in the Kremlin. But what we
have heard from Russia lately has
concerned primarily their foreign
policy."
He continued, "There are two
possible lines of reasoning concern-
ing the dismissals. This could be
one of the customary rotations that
attempt to prevent those not in
power from getting iddas or it
could be a definite power struggle
between two factions, in which
case it might lead to prosecution
similar to the Beria case," said
Prof. Slosson.
What will happen to the fallen
members of the Presidum will give
a clue to just what is the reason
behind the sudden move. "If the
men are reduced in power," said
the professor, "then it wvill prob-
ably have been the former.
There have been no stable
charges placed against the ousted;
instead they have been accused of
"working against the best interesta
of the party."
Prof. Slosson feels that a definite
split in opinion might have re
suited in discussions over the dis-
cussion policy.
Prof. Phillip B. Taylor, Jr. of the
political science department ap-
peared rather puzzled at the seem-
ingly lack of pattern in the dis.
missals.
"It's a kind of conglomerate
group that was ousted for Molotov
and Shepilov have nothing in com-
mon as far as policy is concerned.
And in that respect neither do
Molotov and Malenkov," Prof.
Taylor said.
He revealed however that Krus-
chev might have ordered the move
as a type of protection from losing
Red China.
Prof. Taylor said, "Kaganovich
and Molotov are Bolshevists that
believe that there cannot be df-
ferences between the leader and
the masses of the Communist
Party.
"Mao Tze-tung, Premier of
Red China recently acknowledged
that there was a difference be-
tween the leaders and the masses
Thus, Kruschev might have re-
sented this," added the political
science instructor.
Of interest in the shakeup was
the promotion of Mrs. Ekaterina
Furtseva from alternate member-
ship to the standing of a full mem-
ber in the Presidum.
Both Profs. Taylor and Slosson
agree that this is mainly a matter
of recognition,
Prof. Taylor said, "Women play
an important role in the Supreme
Soviet, and a more important role
than they do here in the United
States.
"The Russians believe in equal-
ity between both sexes (including
manual labor, also), and this move

'NEVER INTENDED' FOR BIKES:
Union Bans Bicycle, Parking at Side Entrance
By ERNEST ZAPLITNY - ___________

"The Union's loggia was never intended as a parking place for
bicycles," Union general manager Franklin C. Kuenzel said yesterday,
commenting on a recent action by the Union Board of Directors.
Signs at the much-used side entrance to the Union went up this
week announcing that parking of bicycles on the loggia (roofed, open
gallery-the veranda) and adjacent sidewalk is prohibited.
"The jumble of bicycles was becoming a terrific hazard," Kuenzel
said. "After several instances of people getting entangled and injured
weie reported, the Board of Directors undertook a study to eliminate
the problem."
Voted Unanimously
He said that at its May meeting the 19-member board (of which
10 are students) voted unanimously to restrict further bicycle-parking
there, but directed that enforcement of the ruling be deferred until
suitable nearby space is provided.
A part of the north drive was made available last week with room
for 65 bicycles, Kuenzel reported.
