Khrushchev Portraits Stalin as Cannibal in Attack
Khrushchev denounced Stalin in a February speech to the party Congress, released by the State Department this week.

He warned democracy for the party, not for the masses, and questioned whether Stalin’s centralized tyranny could recur.

He says cancer is not contagious but cancer viruses may become active due to aging, hormones, defects or chemicals, opening paths for vaccines and treatments. The National Cancer Conference hosts 1,200 delegates from the U.S. and 23 foreign countries.
