implications OF the novel are ex-
ceedingly dangerous for the en-
tire ruling class of the USSR.
The book. titled Not by Bread
Alone" by v. Dudintsev, is a tai
ented and bitter expose of the
Soviet bureaucracy and its meth
DDS Of operation.
It has aroused tremendous in
terest among Soviet intellectuals.
particularly young people. It's
conclusion leaves the distinct i'm
pression that careerists In the
Soviet bureaucracy who resorted
to criminal suppression of ideal
istic heroes standing in their way
still sit in their high places and
continue to advance themselves.
Inventor Is Here
The hero of Mr.. Dudintsev's
book is a brilliant inventor
named Lopatkin and the villain
an industrial executive named
Drozdov. Already these two
names have become bywords
with the Soviet reading public.
Lopatkin is an ascetic, deter
mined idealist and Drozdov an
Exceedingly adroit and ruthless
political climber.
Lopatkin invents a new impor-
tant machine. Drozdev first
wishes to work things out so
that he gets credit for the in
vention, but finding it impossible
to force Lopatkin to permit this,
he brings to bear against Lopat-
kin the entire weight of the So
Wet bureaucracy. Lopatkin fights
q bitter and lonely battle for his
invention. Finally Drozdov
brushes him by arranging his
arrest and exile.
But under the new post-Stalin
regime Lopatkin returns. He con-
tinueS his fight and is ultimately
successful in getting his machine
accepted. Drozdov's wife leaves
Drozdov for love Of Lopatkin.
But Drozdov himself is promoted
to become a deputy minister in
Moscow.
This ending, which leaves the
conflict between the Lopatkins
and the Drozdovs unsettled, dis
Itinguishes the novel.
Appeared As Serial
1t was printed in the Soviet
literary journal Novy Mir as a
serial this fall. 1t Immediately
aroused such wide interest and
comment and raised such inn
portant issues that a public
discussion" of it was held at
the Literary House in Moscow
October %.
There was considerable praise
for the work by other Soviet
writers and some rather soft
criticism Of it at the meeting.
The latest development in the
controversy is a review in the
official government newspaper
