Malenkoiils New Policy Could Make" 0r Break ” His Regime

by Don Dallu

LONDON. (Reuters) - soviet Prune Minister Georgi Malenkaav has released dances in Russia which can either make or break his reg- ime. ,

Malemkovb domestic policy. ,as revealed during his first month of gdtilice. has shown that he believes the time is ripe to give the Rus- aian people at least a taste of dem- ocracy. as it is understood in the Wet. He is taking a. big gamble.

The acid question is how fiar he can go in a "democratization" pro- oeaa without unleashing demands for a genuine 100-per-cent West- ern-svtyle democracy to replace the

To set the right balance between the srtability of his regime and a limited letup in Russia's own in- lernal Iron Curtain, Malenkov will need to begs shrewd judge of Rus- sian psychology and of the internal rituation.

Will Be Popular

The immediate eilfact of several of his moves on tlhe home front will undoubtedly be to popularize his administration. Two malor moves to date have been the de- claring of a. general amnuty. free- lng was of thousands of prisoners serving up to fiive-year terms. and the freeing of the group of doctors accused of having committed "med- lcal murder."

The general amnesty. which freed an unspecified number of political prisoners. as Well as common crim- lnals. is undoubtedly a lifoeral step. But it is nowhere near as far- raaching in its implications as "the

doctors."

Of the many aspects of this on- precedented move. the most im- portant are: 1. The admission that the state was wrong in yelling the doctors: 2. The admission that the intermgaition methods adopted were. "lmpanniwible" and not in iocordance with Hoviet lsw.

the army achievement in request- ing funds for added research on rocket development.

There was no indication of the rockets specific speed. The speed of sound varies between 160 miles an hour at sea level and 630 at high altitudes. That would make the speed between 2,640 and 3.040 MPH. '

The German V-2 rocket travel- led at four times the speed sound in the Second World War. but sometimes exploded in mid- air because of heat generated by the speed of its travel. .

Dulles Opposes

Presidents Treaty - Making

By Roger D. Greene

WASHINGTON. (AP) - Stale secretary John Foster Dulles told Congress Monday that the United States faces "the greatest peril in its history" and cannot stand alone. without allies. against the threat of soviet Russia. .

Dulles made the statement in opening the administration's fight against proposed canstitutionnl amendments to curb the presi- dent's treaty-making powers.

President Eisenliovser has said he believes the proposed restric:- ions-setting up tight congressional reins over presidential pacts with other countries-would deny mm

the flexibility he needs for con- ducting foreign policy. Pinpointing Eiscnhowerl objec-

The cabinet official said he was authorized by Eisenhower to pledge that the administration will consult congressional leaders close- ly on future pacts with other countries.

But he said the proposed re- strictions could "seriously weaken our government in the field of for- eign relations" and be "dangerous to our peace and security."

The proposals "would subject the current day-by-day conduct of for- eign affairs to impediments which might be stifling.”

Much of the current controversy stems from foreign agreements negotiated by the late iPresldent Franklin D. Roosevelt and former President Truman at Yalta. Teh- ran and Potsdam.
