NEW CHARGE AGAINST SHEPILOV

Responsible For 'Deviations' Of Soviet Writers

Moscow, July 18,

Dimitri Shepilov, sucked along with three other top-ranking Soviet leaders from their post- tions a fortnight ago, is now being charged with responsibility for "deviations" amongst Soviet writers and artists, Soviet papers revealed today.

The paper "Soviet Culture", organ of the Ministry of Culture, in articles in its last two issues charged Shepilov with "side-tracking" writers and artists with the aim of "disorientating' intellectual and artistic circles on the pretext of developing "suppleness".
