Terming the transition of power
from the hands of Laurenti Beria
to Georgi Malenkov as "most significant." Gilmore said that Malenkov
had to secure aid from the Russian
Army. To accomplish this, he con- linued. Malenkov passed an unknown degree of power from his
hands to those of Army leaders.
This, he explained, may be the
signs of a beginning disintegration
of power in the top echelons of the
Soviet regime.
In answer to a query concerning
Beria's trial. Gilmore said that it
was entirely possible that Beria was
executed immediately after his arrest, and that the "trials ' may have
been invented to explain his disappearance.
Members of the Russian intelligentsia, Gilmore said, do not hate
the United States or Americans. He
said that, in his many years of as- sociation with various Russians, he
had never heard an impolite or belligerent comment made about his
political tenets.
As far as actual propaganda within the Soviet Union is concerned.
Gilmore said, many of the Russian
people completely ignore it. For instance, he said, the peasants have
little time to worry about propaganda of any kind, because of the
toil they engage in.
On the other hand, he said, the

Third, the Russian people do not

Fourth, members of the Russian

Looking For Depression
Soviet leaders. Gilmore said,
speaking of the chances of war, are
operating on the theory that someday the United States will suffer
from an economic depression serious
enough to give them a comparatively easy victory against the free
nations.
In connection with this. Gilmore
said that most of the Soviet leaders
probably do not believe in the
propaganda about the United States
which originates, for the most part,
from within the Iron Curtain.
Their main line of propaganda
now. one designed to keep the Russian people in a state of mind to
accept all-owarfare, is that the
United States and other free nations
are encircling the Soviet Union with
air bases, he said.
However, the correspondent said,
until the Russians see definite signs
of an economic relapse in the United
States, the chances for war are
small.
