Nikita Dislikes New York
And He Tells The
Russian People Why
MOSCOW, Iff)—Soviet Premier
Khrushchev dislikes New York
and he told the Soviet people via
TV just why. It is repulsive, for
one thing, it sums up the degener
ation of capitalism, for another,
he said.
Khrushchev spoke to a home
coming audience yesterday on
what he did abroad. Russians,
somewhat bewildered by two
hours of Khrushchev discourse on
international problems, sat up ex
pectantly as he spoke of New
York.
“I would like to tell you com
rades about New York City. This
is a very big city. Gorky (the So
viet novelist) called it the city of
the yellow devil. But more than
50 years have passed since Gorky
visited it,” he said with a grin.
“Since then New York has be
come even more repulsive. By
itself, it demonstrates the ugli
ness and degeneration of capital
ism. People live there, dooming
themselves eternally to a hard,
unbearable life as if bricking
themselves in a stone bag.
“Rather high buildings are be
ing torn down. And instead of
them, they build skyscrapers. The
city is climbing upward. On some
of the streets, trees are being
planted, but they cannot grow,
and perish.
“Especially pitiful is the picture
of children, for they are deprived
of many childhood joys. They are
deprived not only of running but
walking in the open fresh air that
is so necessary for each living
being. Streets are filled with huge
numbers of automobiles. As is
known, automobiles work on gaso
line. And the whole atmosphere
is poisoned with gasoline. So in
this respect, New York is a ter
rible city.”
John Kessel of ESC arrived
from Fairbanks and will remain
over the weekend.

Bare wires? Poor connections?
5. Are sheds and storage areas free of
rubbish and flammable materials?

your fire pot or burner cannot be
come flooded?
7. What condition is your slack in?
Check them for cracks, burned out
spots.

matches or the carburetors on your
stoves?
