NEW YORK. April Is (P).-
Moscow brought its current anti
Stain line to the United States
yesterday.
A Russian diplomat attacked
what he termed the cult of
Stain" before an audience of Co.

called it "monstrous."
Konstantin G. Fedoseev, coun-
selor of the Soviet Embassy in

subject himself in an informal
give-and-take session with about
80 senior economic students.

errors have occurred" Mr.. Fed

persons supernatural qualities.

This is the first time a Soviet
official has spoken openly on the
subject in America. Mr.. Fedo-
seev freely answered students
questions about the amount Of

munist Party and about Russian
elections. He later took part in
lively round-table discussion
