Richard

, O'Regan. Associated Press chief of bureau in West Germany, explains the rea- sons behind this in the fol- lowing last of four articles on the situation In East Europe.

By RICHARD O‘REGAN

SOFIA rAPi—Despite all the troubles be is having with his Communist allies Soviet Pre- mier Khrushchev has one true and faithful friend in East Eu- rope—Bulgaria.

Romanians may be turning their backs on Moscow. Poles and Hungarians may be pur. ing their own brands of com- munism and Czechs may flaying around looking for ways out of the economic mess com- munism has led them into. but—

Bulgaria is cooler in its rela- tions with the United States than Moscow and Bulgaria has given the Soviet Union almost complete say over its economic life. It is the most Stalinist of East E u r o p e a n Communist countries.

Mitch of the reason for the close ties to the Kremlin is due to the traditional friendship of It.000.000 Bulgarians —— whether or not they like communism— for Russia. Bulgarian pride in giving the Russians the. cyrillic alphabet and the fact. that for almost 1.200 years Bulgaria has v never considered itself part of

Said one Western diplomat working here:

"You can be sure that if other Communist nations turn more toward the West. Bulgaria will v . the last to do so. If they get . gl'oer toward the West. Bul- [aria will be the first after

garia was summed up by Com- munist. Chief Todor Zhivkov when he told a party congress; "There must be an intransi- gent struggle against bourgeois ideology and the decadent influ- ences of the capitalist West." He charged the West with using press, radio. movies. mu- sic and dancing to corrupt Bul- garian youth and declared war on all attempts by artists to in-

RELATIONS FROZEN

Relations with the U.S.—-lnier- I rupted for to years between. 1950 and Him—came to a new freeze after youths rioted lnl front of the American Legation : last December and overturnedl American cars. ‘

But since the Bulgarians apol- l ogized. there have. been indica- i tions that Moscow has told thv- kov Bulgaria is lagging in co- existence and should loosen up a little.

Diplomats In Sofia are not: certain. but they believe a‘. struggle may be going on fort power within the Bulgarian gov ernment among three factions. Old-time Stalinists: a group of young Communists with more. modern. more Western ideas. and the men in power.

They think Bulgaria's secret police. still very much in evi- dence. may be run by Stalinists who are still making it difficult for the party to carry out any changes at all.

On the other hand. the party leadership also recently criti- cized liberals who want more radical solutions to Bulgaria's problems. The regime evidently is afraid to give them more power for fear liberalization would get out of hand. TRADE WITH RUSSIA

Eighty per cent of Bulgaria's total foreign trade is with the Soviet Union and her trade com- l mitments are of long term. ‘

Before communism took over. agriculture was Bulgaria’s ma- jor industry, The Communists have been placing emphasis on building up industry and now industrial production exceeds agriculture in value.

This has left Bulgarians short of food. Last winter there was a major bread shortage in towns and cities.

Economic observers here say the standard of living has im- proved over the last two years. but it is harder for the average Bulgarian to get by on his pay than any other East European.

Life in the country villages— where farms are all either col- lecclvized or part of co-oper- atives—is said to be better than in neighboring Greece.
