It is the most Stalinist of East European Communist countries. Much of the reason for the close ties to the Kremlin is due to the traditional friendship of 8,000,000 Bulgarians -- whether or not they like communism-- for Russia, Bulgarian pride in giving the Russians the cyrillic alphabet and the fact that for almost 1,200 years Bulgaria has never considered itself part of Europe. Said one Western diplomat working here: "You can be sure that if other Communist nations turn more toward the West, Bulgaria will be the last to do so. If they, get tougher toward the West, Bul- aonb Were SR Nog eR aT Bulgaria Remains Frigid Amid Thaw In Cold War garia will be the first after Moscow." It is perhaps Bulgaria's lack of identity with Western Europe which accounts' for a striking fact that meets the Western visitor on arrival: Border con- trols to the West are less strict in Bulgaria han elsewhere in East Europe. "Very few Bulgarians think of escaping to the West," a diplo-| mat explained, | The diplomats and _ other Westerners in Sofia report: Bulgarians still are discour- aged from talking to Western- ers. Political jokes are a pun-| ishabe offence, even though) they are a favorite pastime elsewhere in the East. Deportations of "political un- réliables" from the cities to the countryside are still occurring frequently, although shortage of housing is often given as the Ht ye emery semen yaitr reason. hei nee we hp A A spy mania has been built) up around all Westerners and the public has been urged to report on the movements of foreigners. Bulgarians are barred from entering the American legation and there now are two militia- men to stop them, Six months ago there was only one. Next door is a big anti-American display. The current policy of Bul- garia was summed up by Com- munist Chief Todor hivkov when he told a party congress: "There must be an intransi- gent struggle against bourgeois ideology and the decadent influ- ences of the capitalist West." He charged the West with) using press, radio, movies, mu-) sic and dancing to corrupt Bul-| garian youth and declared war on all attempts by artists to in- troduce Western ideas into liter- ature, theatre and ar. x apalgaaie Ne 6 Relaions with the U.S.--inter- rupted for 10 years between 1950 and 1960--came to a new freeze after youths rioted in front of the American Legation iast December and overturned American cars. But since the Bulgarians apol- j ogized, there have been indica- tions that Moscow has told Zhiv- kov Bulgaria is lagging in co- existence and should loosen up a iiitle. ot Diplomats in Sofia are not certain, but they believe a struggle may be going on for power within the Bulgarian gov- ernment among three factions: Old-time Stalinists; a group. of young Communists with more modern, more Western ideas, and the men in power, They think Bulgarias' secret police, still very much in evi- dence, may be run by Stalinists who are still making it difficult for the party to carry out any changes at al. * On the other hand, the party leadership also recently criti- cized liberals who want more radical solutions to Bugaria's probems. The regime evidently is afraid to give them more power for «fear liberalization would get out of hand.

The Communists have been placing emphasis on building up industry and now industrial production exceeds agriculture in value, This has left Bulgarians short of food. Last winter there was a major bread shortage in towns and cities. Economic observers here say the standard of living has im- proved over the last two years, but it is harder for the average Bulgarian to get by on his pay than any other East European. Life in' the country villages-- where farms are all either col- lectivizéd or part of co-oper- atives--is said to be better than in neighboring Greece. "T'll say this for the Bulgarian Communists," said one agricul- tural expert. "Their peasants no longer are living in mud huts and many have their own homes, with electric light and power--which they rarely had before communism took over." But he added: "As long as Bulgarians feel so much affection for the Rus- sians, there is not likely to be much change in Bulgaria." Research On TB School Continuing LONDON, Ont.
