The Evening Star prints Pravda editorial of Oct. 17, on order ouster of Khrushchev: “…… Now when the country is ushering in the 47th anniversary of the great Oct. Rev., the stream of joyous tidings is growing from day to day on the commissioning of new enterprises, the mastering of the manufacturing of progressive items of production, the glorious exploits of our working class, the collective farm peasantry, state farm workers, specialists of all branches of the national economy.”
On top of all these successes, Khrushchev is ousted!
So far as the rhetoric in the editorial is concerned, Khrushchev could subscribe to every syllable.
Moscow also publishes a statement denouncing the Chinese Reds for breaking the unity of communist movement.
