MORE KHRUSHCHEV QUOTES

Calls Stalin Sex Maniac

late in 1953.

PARIS (AP)-Nikita S. Khrush- chev, Soviet Communist party sec- retary. was quoted Monday by a French newspaper as labelling Jo- seph Stalin a sex maniac whose police recruited for him a harem of underage girls.

The newspaper France Soir. re- porting this in a dispatch from Vienna, said Khrushchev also con- firmed a suspicion widely held in the West that Stalin killed his sec- ond wife. '

Krushchev was quoted as sug- gesting Stalin's crimes were so heinous he should be tried post- humously. Stalin died three years

go.

E France Soir was the first news paper to obtain the text of Khrush- chev's speech to the 20th Soviet Communist party congress in Feb- ruary denouncing Stalin as the murderer of hundreds of faithful Communists.

BERIA CONNECTED

The newspaper did not quote di-

Stalin's past, It said. however, there could be no doubt about the report's authenticity.

Khruschev, said France Soir, reported Stalin assigned secret police chief Lavrenty P. Beria to recruit a harem of teenage girls, some of whom disappeared later under mysterious circumstances. Khrushchev is reported to have ex- plained that in his later years Sta- lin was subject to a sort of eroto- manla-sex madness-and to have related some "particularly odious details" of sexual cruelty to the girls.

This is not the first time sex charges have been made against Stalin. Alexander Orlov, a former commissar of Soviet sec et police who has lived in exile in t e United States so years, told a press con- ference last April that Stalin was a homosexual.

Khrushchev now is pictured as revealing to Soviet lands: that Beria confessed Stalin's sex crimes

EDMONTON (CF)-Are the best candidates for higher education now being selected? Are there large numbers of students unable to enter university who would profit more from 'higher education than some now being admitted? At least partial answers to these and many similar questions are hoped for from a two-year study by the Alberta education depart- ment and the University of Alberta into matriculation prob- lems. Launched last fall. the study entered the working stage this spring when 6,500 Grade 12 stu- dents participated in two special tests.

EXTENSIVE CHECK

Education Minister A. O. Aal- borg says it is "one of the most complete and extensive studies in secondary education ever staged in Canada. its primary purpose is to find answers to such questions as these:

1. Are the present methods used for selection of university candi- dates the best to meet the present needs?

2. Are high school standards changing?

3. Could selective factors other than the achievement on Grade 12 examinations be used to ad- vantage? These would include apti- tude, school record. priucipal's rec- ommendations and so on.

To this end. the 6.500 students were tested and after complete data is obtained on each candl- date in the program, careers of the students will be followed for at lmst two more years.

SPECIAL TESTS

The study resulted from an in- vestigation by a committee s

iSencilor Godbout Backs Into- Quebec's Hot Political Fight-

tax rights to Ottawa.

The argument is over fed- eral - provincial taxation agree- ments signed by all provincial governments in 1942 for five years.

Terms of the -ueement pro- vided that the province would auc- pend certain direct taxes for five years in return for federal aub- sidies. -

Mr. Godbout said recently:

"The federal government needed all the resources of the coun- try. . . My government only sus-

pended our right to collect (taxes). . ."

The wartime tax-deal was one of the main decisions of Mr. God- bout's 1939 -1944 administration. Bitterly opposed by Mr. Duplessis' Union Natlonale party. it wound up as the top issue of the 1944 provincial election in which Mr. Godbout's Liberals went down under a wave of resentment against federal wartime taxes and controls.

Educational Survey Proceeding In Alberta

by the education department. The matriculation study com- mittee proposed that Grade 12 students-or most of them-write two aptitude tests and two achieve

mcnt tests. . The sptitud tests developed skills in English language and

mathematics. Former studies have shown that these school-learned abilities have a direct relationship to a student's success or failure in higher learning, Mr. Aalborg said.

The achievement tests are pub- lishcd by the college entrance ex- amination board and compare favorably with Alberta Grade 12 exams, Mr. Aalborg said. The chief difference is that they have been prepared on broad subject fields with no relationship to particular course outlines or textbooks. GROWING PROBLEM

"It is hoped." Mr. Aalborg said. "that by 1958 or 1959 this study will throw light on many perplex- ing problems. This will not be too soon as the problems of our ex- panding economy are already upon us and in need of early solution."

He says:

"Not only must we think of in- stitutions and the programs they might offer but more than ever we must try to improve our methods of selection and placement of stu- dents."

Mr. Aalborg said it is likely the provision of facilities for higher education won't keep pace with rising flood of candidates and needs for trained personnel.

”lf this is true, we should make certain that the best possible uni- versity candidates are selected so that our already lnadequat unl-

et up versity facilities are not wasted."
