Stalin's Mask analyzed by British observer Deutscher
A Persian of a column by Bruce Biossat reviews a British assessment by a Polish born specialist on Stalin. It portrays Stalin as a master organizer who rose from a cobbler's son in Georgia to complete autocrat, a cautious planner who avoided direct military leadership yet controlled every key decision. The article weighs whether Stalin would risk peace or war to safeguard Russia and how his private life remained austere and distant.

Oklahoma City October 15 A JPA decision by the legislative council appropriations committee on how much of the $36 million building bond issue will be spent during the present administration was delayed for at least two weeks. Roy J Turner conferred with the committee in closed session this morning and gave no definite recommendations on spending. The committee took no action on earmarking the entire account for institutional repairs and construction. Turner prioritized care of state mental hospitals and orphanages, with emergency repairs first and coordination with the governor. Four subcommittees will visit state institutions before a special session planned between November 28 and December 3 to decide on a definite building program. Senate and House members were named to lead inspections of southeastern, northwestern, and eastern institutions, with broad legislative participation in the tours.
