Deaths of Generals, Ad. miraIs, Even Civilians
 Leak Out in Moscow

NEW YORK, April 18-tR--Mos- COW has announced, in the past half year, the deaths of IS Russian Gen. erals and Admirals-some of them rather young.
 The appearance or such ooitu- aries 50 frequently in the Soviet press naturally arouses speculation in the West over the possibility of 2 new purge in the Soviet Union. However, there has been no hint n the advices which pass through Moscow censorship that a purge actually is under way.
 Even if the Soviet press has re- ported all the deaths of the top military brass, rather high nor tality rate is indicated, particularly when a number of the officers were in their forties.
 The Russians also have reported the deaths of a considerable num- Der of civilian, as well as military, officials. The latest obituary of this type published by the Soviet press was that of N W. Egorov. 48-year- old official of the Council of Min ister, whose death was announced today.
 Other high-ranking Soviet func- tionaries also have passed away re- gently. They include Peter Anuroy.
