STALINISM BULGARIA
Party Members Fall For Big Hoax
BY HUBERT HARRISON
Vienna, Mar. 20.
The Bulgarian Communist leaders, who never really put into practice the anti-Stalinist sentiments expressed by Mr Nikita Khrushchev and others at the 20th Congress of the Soviet Communist party last year, have put back the clock to full-blown Stalinism, according to reports reaching here.
At the first hint from Moscow, when Mr Khrushchev again praised Stalin, the Communist party in Sofia immediately began to destroy any trace there was of anti-Stalinism in their country, the reports indicate.
