Behind Russia's Iron Curtain Groza a Capitalist Premier
Stalin's viceroy in Romania Petru Groza heads a Communist government while remaining a wealthy nonmember of the Communist Party. A Transylvania native, Groza built vast estates, hotels, a bank and factories before joining politics with the Plowmen's Party. He rose amid postwar power struggles, becoming premier on March 6, 1945, as part of the National Democratic Front backed by Moscow.
