Zhukov Seen As Nikita's Successor in Russia
Counterspy Boris Morros testified before the House Un American Activities Committee that Marshal Georgi Zhukov will head Russia in a military dictatorship within eight months.

Separate spy organs reportedly merged into a superagency under the Red Army. Potate chip sales totaled 353 million dollars in the United States last year.
