ANXIETY IN SOVIET
Concern At Plans OfWest (N.Z. Press Association—Copyright) (Rec. 9 p.m.) NEW YORK, March 10. It was evident that within the Soviet Union the new Government was decidedly worried about the intentions of the democratic coalitioti, said C. L. Sulzberger in the “New York Times” todaX Sulzberger, who is the newspaper’s chief foreign correspondent, said in a dispatch from Paris that when Mr Malenkov had said at the funeral of Stalin that “we are not afraid of any internal or external enemies” he had demonstrated great concern. Obviously by “internal” enemies, Mr Malenkov had referred to opponents within the Communist ranks, said Sulzberger. Hints already had been disseminated from Belgrade of uneasiness in both Albania and Bulgaria concerning the implications of Stalin’s death/
The first issue of the Cominform journal “For a Lasting Peace, For a Peoples’ Democracy” to appear since Stalin’s death had implied that there was trouble in Hungary where progress was said to be hindered by “bureaucratism.” Quite obviously such sentiments were not the result of mere coincidence, the correspondent said.
