Ma|enkov Tightening His Grip
In Shakeup to Avert Panic
Stain Funeral to Be Monday
New Ruler Cuts
Number of Top
Ministry Jobs

MOSCOW, Mar. 7.-Georgi M.
Malenkov today led the Soviet
Union and its wide dominionS-
of1cially-as successor to Josef
V. Stain. His elevation was &C
companied by a wholesale shake
up of top government personnel.
Selection of Stains 51-year-
old protege to be the new Russian
Prime Minister was announced
by the Kremlin last night. Long
a close associate of the dead
Communist chief, Malenkov had
been considered his likeliest
successor.
A government communique
said the host of other changes
apparently aimed at Streamlining
the Soviet administration-were
necessary to assure "uninter-
rupted and correct" leadership of
the country and to prevent ANY
kind of disarray and panic" fol-
lowing Stains death.
The communicate also an
nounced that the Supreme Soviet
the Soviet Unions Parliament
would meet in Moscow March
IA to consider the changes.
Four Important Changes.
Among the most important
were:
/. L. P. Beria, boss of the
Soviet secret police and Russia S
atomic energy program, named
head Of the newly combined
interior and state security min
istrieS. Gle presumably also
will retain his police and atomic
dutiesD
2. Deputy Premier v. M.
Molotov returned to the post of
foreign minister he held from
1889 to 1919. He replaced
Andrei Vishinsky, who was ap-
pointed permanent Soviet rep
resentative to the United Ma
tions in New York. VishinSky
had taken over the foreign min
istry job from Molotov.
3. Marshal Nikolai Bulganin,
a member of Stains f1ve-man
inner war council during World
War II, was named minister of
the armed forces in place of
Marshal A. M. Vasilevsky. The
latter became a deputy min
lister.
4. Three deputy foreign min
listers also were named-Mr.
VishinSky, Jacob Malik, who held
the same position under Mr..
Vishinsky and formerly was Rus
sia's U. N. delegate, and VASTLY
Kuznetsov, formerly head of the
Soviet trade union movement.
VoroshilOv Heads Presidium.
Beria, Molotov. Bulganin and
Lazarus Kaganovich were all
renamed deputy prime min
listers. With Malenkov, they will
form a new "preSidium" of the
Council of Ministers that appar-
emily will be a highly important
government organ.
Marshal Klementy VoroShilov
formerly a Vice Premier, was
chosen chairman of the Preside
UNI of the Supreme Soviet
(parliament), replacing Nikolai
Shvernik. This post Qargely an
honorary one) is equivalent to
the presidency of the Soviet
Union.
Shvernik was made chairman
of the All-Union Council OF

Gust Stepinac

ignate Aloysius Stepinac, Arch
bishop of Zagreb, may be forcibly
expelled from Yugoslavia by Tito,
according to report reaching here.
The report comes from highly
placed official in Belgrade whose

The case of Archbishop Stepinac
was taken up at the same meeting
of the Executive committee OF the
Yugoslav Communist Union dorm-
erly party) at which it was decd
ed to break off diplomatic rela-
tions with the Vatican, the report
states.
Interior Minister Alexander Ran
kovic proposed at the meeting that
the Archbishop be either thrown
out of the country Immediately or
taken back to his prison cell at
Lepoglava. He stated that as a
pretext the government could
charge that the Archbishop had
not observed the conditions under
which he was released.
Because the Archbishop has
talked to foreign newspapermen
and other foreigners, Rankovic
pointed out, he could be accused
of supplying information detrimen-
tai to the Yugoslav people and the
state.
After lengthy discussion of the
case, the report continues, the
committee reached this decision.
Archbishop Stepinac will be given
% hours in which to decide wheth-
er he will leave the country vol

If he refuses to leave ''voluntar-
lily" he will be seized by the police
and dumped at the border near
