When asked the extent of
the political indoctrination and
control of youth groups, Albert

No Forced Joining
"Our Young ommunist
League is a political organiza-

spirit of our Communist lead

When Leo Janos of B'nai
Birth asked if Russian youths
were forced to join organiza =

bership in any group in my
country is voluntary. 1t is a
matter of conscience. No cne

anything"
Mr.. Kashlev express d
amazement bordering on disbe-

based on the attendance OF
870,0e0 school children this

more than SIPS million would
have to be made available for
