delegates from all over the Soviet
Union come to get their latest
instructions on the steps they are
to take in connection with some
new big political issue. This issue
or policy is revealed to them in
due time during the Congress.
AS former official in the So
Wet Foreign Office. I read the
top secret. uncensored reports of
previous party congresses. Just
before the war, I attended the
last interim party congress held
in 1899.
To be admitted into the big
white marble hall of the former
Czarist palace in the middle of
the Kremlin, I had to present my
"propusk" or free pass to more
than score of guards outside
and inside the Kremlin walls.
No Conflict Likely.
Once inside, I knew already I
would not witness any dramatic
speeches or struggles between
factions of speakers, or any sur
prising developments. The time
when fierce struggles between va
rious factions of the Communist
Party and its leaders occurred at
Evening star., 1952-10-04

the podium Of the party Congress
was gone forever.
Stain long ago had crushed
the opposition within the party,
Just as he had crushed - with
the help Of the party-the open
opposition Of the country as q
whole.
Since the 10th Communist Con-
gress in 1880, "the highest policy
making body"-as 1t is propa-
gandized to the free world - is
just a dull, standard proceeding,
run according to a predetermined
scenario.
Report on Politburo
Here is the way the present con-
|gress will work: Stain (and now
Georgi Malenkov) will report on
the activities Of the Politburo in
the period between the two con-
crosses. Other Politburo members
will report on the most important
problems of the Communist poll
cies, as planned by the Politburo;
for example. about the new FIVE
year plan. about regulations in
side the party, etc.
Then delegates eulogize the
wisdom Of the proposed decisions
and personally congratulate the
great leader, teacher and father
of the toilers Of all countries,
genius Of mankind, etc. No ques-
tioning, no polemics, no objections
Just praise and assurances of
loyalty.
After this, q set Of resolutions
Is presented to the high assembly.
They are accepted, naturally,
unanimously. and under the
sounds of their party anthem,
the Internationa1e. announcing
the desire to "annihilate the old
world" and to build a new one, I"
with a noisy and long ovation to
Stain. the Congress is closed.

ciSions are published in the
papers. Part remains secret. One

delegates represent the top level
Of the regimes supporters, addi-
tional measures OF security always
are required by suspicious and
fearful dictator. All along the
walls Of the marble hall in the
Kremlin I saw the Communist
agents on their guard, the troopers
Of the secret police Of Lavrenti p.
Beria.
A lot Of them were, surely,
given a candidate card and placed
among the delegates and on the
guest galleries. There also was q
special guaranty against surprises
during the speechmaking.
No one in his senses would
raise protest at a party conference
or congress. Still, it Is required
that every one who wants to take
part in the discussion. i.e.. in
the praise Of Stain and his poll
icies, should register himself and
submit the full text of his speech.
No changes and no impromptu
speeches are allowed. The secret
police check the speech with the
text and would Immediately stop
any one departing from the ap-
proved version.
There is no press coverage or
radio reporting from the congress.
Even If something dramatic hap
pens, nothing would be known
outside the Kremlin walls for a
while; later, rumors will spread,
liz only among very restricted
fraction Of the population, among
high party and state officials.
But peculiar or not, the coming
Communist congress, I repeat,
does not give us much comfort.
A Russian popular saying goes !:
When the thieves gather together
keep your doors closed.
Evening star., 1952-10-04

can easily Judge what is the re-
lation between these two parts
from the fact that the report Of
Stain, made on the last party
congress. actually lasted about
10 hours. Yet, in Pravda, its ''full
text" covered just five full pages.
There could be no surprises at
the congress because the dele
gates have been picked by Stain
himself. They are selected, not
elected.
The mechanics are simple. The
local party bosses in the districts
(Rayon) and regions (Oblast) of
the U. s. 8. r., select the neces-
|sary number of candidates among
themselves. and submit the list
to the central committee of the
party in Moscow.
There. the personality Of each
candidate became a subject Of q
careful screening from the, point
of view of his political reliability
(non-participation in the oppo-
sition Of the old days, etc. and
the personal security of Stain;
the question posed is whether a
delegate is doubtful or not. After
this. the list Of approved can
|didates is returned. and special
district and regional party con-
ferences "elect" the candidates
and send them to Moscow.
Masses Have No Voice.
The rank and file of the party,
the mass. has nothing to do with
the matter. It has Just to ap-
|plaud the decisions of the party
congress and carry them out as
a supreme law for every Commu-
mist. In. Communist jargod, all
this is called an internal party
democracy.

1,146 Producers Report HoaO They
Market Range Cattle

HOW DOES the range cattle pro-
ducer, whose greatest income comes
from the sale of feeder and grass
fat cattle, transfer his livestock to
the feedlot or the packing plant?
He has available a variety Of
marketing outlets but which does
he choose? And why? When does
he sell his stock? At what time?
What age? What are the problems
he encounters in marketing? Or are
the marketing facilities and the
available market information, on
the whole, satisfactory?
More than LOO answers to these
and other marketing questions form
the basis of a new western regional
research bulletin published by the
Wyoming Agricultural Experiment
station as Bulletin 317. Titled
Marketing Western Feeder Cattle,
the new publication can be obtained
by Wyoming residents from their
experiment station director at Lar
annie and by Montanans from the
experiment station at Bozeman.
Authors of the bulletin, /. M. Ste
vens of Wyoming, H. C. Mason Of
Nevada and r. T. Burdick and H.
P. Gazaway, both of Colorado, and
research assistants in most of the IL
western states, interviewed 1,146
range cattle producers to determine
methods used and problems encoun-
tered in marketing their feeder cat
tie.
These producers, all running be-
tween Is and 1000 head, were most
" from the range states of Montana,
Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico,
Utah and Nevada, though some
were from parts of Idaho, Oregon
and California. In addition, 54 large
operators those with over 1000
head on inventory - were inter
viewed in a companion study in the
same states; so, in all, the records
obtained covered more than half a
million cattleor nearly percent
of all beef cattle in the states in

idence of the dynamic nature OF
cattle marketing. Individual pro-
ducers showed wide fluctuation
in both numbers and classes of cat
tie marketed from year to year;
many made complete changes in
market outlets used in succeeding
years. And, for the region as
whole, gone are the days of cowI
aged steer operations. The major
ity of producers interviewed sold
earlier about half were organized
on a cowlyearling basis, 20 percent
on a cowIcalf basis.
Over all, IS percent of the 120,111
head sold by these cattlemen by
passed organized markets either
auctions or terminals. The produc-
ers sold almost two-fifths to dealers
buying on their own account and
another fourth went directly to
ranchers, farmers and feeders.
Auction markets received only is
percent of the total sold; terminal
markets, 20. And most of these
were heifers, cows and bulls.
Marketing costs, however, while
highest for terminal markets at an
average rs cents a hundred and
auctions at 81 cents, lowest for deal
ers at 9 cents and direct outlets, Z
cents, played only a small part in
the choice of market outlet.
Most of the cattlemen picked
their market because they felt it
was the best one or that they were
getting the best price available.
A few stuck to tradition and used
the same market their father had.
Convenience was major consider
alton for those using auctions,
though many used this outlet when
they had only small number to
sell or the sale lot was made up Of

Why Grow
Old?
By Josephine Lowmon

Here we are at the beginning Of
the "leggy" season. For the next
few months women will want to
wear swim suits, shorts and cool
play clothes. Stockings will ofters
be left in the bureau drawer. All
Of which means that if we are go
ing to look attractive as well as
feel comfortable. we must give
special attention to our legs and
our feet.
Let's consider our feet first. We
will find ourselves barefoot many
times during the next few months
and shoes will sometimes be only
a pleasing combination of Soles
and straps. Heels and toes will be
completely exposed or partially so.
through very sheer hose.
At the end Of the winter. most
women find that the skin of their
feet, and especially their heels, is
extremely dry and rough. I am not
talking now about those callouses
which come from incorrectly fitted
shoes or from weak arches but
about the condition of normal feet
after winter weather.
A nightly routine can make a
Ibig difference in this situation even
in a weeks time. Soak the feet
well in warm .soapy water, using
a nail brush on the roughened
areas. Rinse and rub with a rough
towel. Massage the feet well with
one of the fine body lotions. After
wards massage an oily cream into
the skin of the heels and sleep in
those cute little heel mitts.
OF course our toenails should be
well manicured just as our finger
nails are If we are not to look re-
voting in toeless shoes or sandals.
The cuticle around the toenails is
no doubt roughened. Add this to
your nightly routine; massage
cuticle cream or oil into the skin
about the toenailS. Believe me,
one week and you will have a pair
of new feet.
The type play shoe you select
makes a big difference in foot at
tractiveness. If you have a big
ball at the base of the big toe be
certain that a strap hides it. II
your big toe is not a thing OF
beauty, avoid those play shoes
which have a strap between the
big toe and the next one. If you
have q fat foot minimize it by buy
ing a shoe with slanting straps, for
slenderiZing.
