Smashing the Stain Myth

myth. The Red dictator was
feared but not loved by the
people.
The troubles reported to
have occurred in the Caucasus
are not taken seriously by
qualified Washington observ-
ers. The Georgians. like all
mountaineers, are strongly in
dividualistic. Their language
and script are even different
from Russian. During the en-
pire the actual authority Of
the governor general sent from
st. Petersburg seldom extended
much farther than the cities of
Batum, Tiflis and others. The
Czarist troops never ventured
too far in the mountain fast
nesseS where local chieftains
ruled their various tribes.
After the 1917 revolution
Georgia became a sovereign
republic for about three years
until it was conquered by a Red
army sent from Moscow. But
the Red armies, like those Of
the Cars, did not extend their
domination over the mountain
tribes.
Stain, Beria and other
powerful men in the Kremlin
were native Georgians. They
took care of their followers
in the cities. It is probable that
these hangers-on who must
now get of the gravy train are
causing some disturbances, not
so much because the dead
leaders are being vilified as be-
cause their own positions are
menaced.
RebellionS in a police state
are not likely to be successful.
Pistols and machineguns are
of no avail against tanks and
planes. So long as the army
headed by zhukov remains
Solidly behind Khrushchev
there is no reason to hope that
there will be any dramatic
changes in the USSR.

NAPLES. Italy, July rs (R.-
The Soviet Russian tourist ship
Pobeda left Naples today after a
furry of excitment and protests
over diving activities that re-
called the case of Missing British
Ifrogman Lionel Crabb.
The Naples harbormaster dis
closed that he had received a
formal request from the Soviet
embassy in Rome to investigate
whether a diver operating near
the Pobeda had caused any
damage"
The diver, the harbormaster
said, was going about his daily
work recovering scrap iron from
the bottom of the harbor about
$50 yards from the spot where
the Pobeda was anchored.
The watch officer of the
Pobeda had seen him and re-
ported to the Soviet embassy,
which asked port authorities to
make sure no damage had been
done to the ship by the diver.

Hurricane Season Neors;
Aug. 10 Is Starting Date

10. you'll be hearing a lot about
hem. They're the names selected
to identify this years hurricanes
The usual season for the de-
vastating winds and rain is not
far of. A study by the Wash
ington Weather Bureaus hur-
ricane research section shows
August 10 is the average date
of the beginning of the first
hurricane.
There's little likelihood that
the year will pass without a
hurricane.
I'm SO years. there have been
only two years-1907 and 1914
without hurricanes" explained
Conrad~Mook. who specializes in
hurricane research.
Number Increasing
Mr.. Nook also pointed out that
the number Of hurricanes is in
creasing. The average over the
69-year period is only four
while the average for the last
10 years is seven. The big year
for hurricanes was 1850 when
II whirled out of the Caribbean.
A note of hope that the hurri-
canes this year will re Shunted
out to sea was sounded yester-
day by Gordon Dunn, head Of
the, Miami Weather Bureau. Mr..
Dunn said westerly winds have
strayed to the south. These
winds, he contends, will keep the
hurricanes from moving north
along the East Coast.
Mr.. Nook agreed with his
Miami colleague, but cautioned
that the protective westerly
winds could move back to their
normal course by August, ira
ditional beginning of the three
month hurricane season.
The most devastating hurri-
cane on record was last years
Diane which brought a 20-inch
deluge of rain and accompanying
floods to New England States,
New York and Pennsylvania. To-
gether with Connie and lone
it caused damage estimated at
