Drlnan continued. "The two main political eras in the Soviet Union were the period between 1928 and 1953 when Stalin ruled, and from 1964 to the early 19805 when Brezh- nev was in power." . Leouid Brezhnev, who succeeded Krushchev, instilled trust and confi- dence within the Communist party. Brezhnev reduced the fear of pur- ges, and under his rule central party bureaucrats were able to increase their power and job security. Brezhnev revived the secret police network, restoring stability. Alth- ough there was repression, the days of government terror appeared over. By emphasizing more investment in consumer goods, Brezhnev In- creased the standard of living of most Soviets. Several of his reforms aimed at reducing the

The home run was only the second of the season for Baron, the cleanup hitter who hit 16 home runs to set a USO record last year. Without Baron, USD struggled early this season, but since his return two weeks ago, the Toreros (17-14) have won 8 of 10 games. Iowa (6-4) took a 2-0 lead on Chris Hatcher's fifth home run of the year in the second inning. USO trailed, 2-1, in the sixth when Baron homered to put the Toreros ahead,5-2. Dave Monastero (2-3) pitched two scoreless innings of relief. USD returns to West Coast Athletic Conference play Friday at Pepperdine.

Previous Soviet regimes frowned upon jokes showing the govemment or leaders in a poor lighl But now there appears to be more "freedom or humor" in Russia. Long contemptous of Stalin, Rus- sians are now showing their feelings through jokes. One joke tells how the Stalin Commemorative Postage stamp Is a failure because it always falls off the envelopes. "Soviet officials cleared up the confusion," Drlnan said. "Russians were spitting on the wrong side of the stamp." Alter Stalin died in 1953, Nikita Krushchev rose to power. Krush- chev ruled the country at first with two other leaders, but In 1957 be- came the most powerful man in the country. Krushchev made many changes in government policy and eliminated the "use of terror as a political in- strument." He also lifted some of the restrictions placed on the arts by Stalin. "Krushchev made substantial cuts in Soviet military expend!• lures," Drinan said. "And then he tried to conceal his country's mili- tary and economic weaknesses. Krushchev also embarrassed the Soviets in front of the entire world with his handling of U1e Cuban miss- ile crisis. He also lost Chma as an ally of the Soviet Unlo " Krushchev's comrades planned his ouster when he attempted to make organlzatl nal refonns within the Soviet Union. These reforms were perceived by a large segment of the party bureaucracy as "threats to their positions." "Krushchev did not leave an en- during stamp on Soviet politics,"

were attempting "reforms." Lenin hoped to win support from the Soviet pe. s nts with hi ''New Economic Poll y" which permitted regulation of cert. in segments of U1e economy by m rkct regulation. The peasants had been hit hard by the civil war of 1917-21, and Lenin hoped to placute them with his NEP. But the Soviet leader was Insistent that hP.a\ y lndu try wo11ld stay und r slate control. Lenin' ucc sor, Jos ph Stalln. aboli. hed the NEP in 1929 and insti• tuted the centrallz d economic y tem till In ex.I t nc today in the Soviet Union. He o div rted all available resources into heavy in- dustry. At first, Stalin' crash moderniza- tion program seemed to work well, enabling U1e Soviet gross national product to rise about nine percent a ytar. This increase was not rnlr• rored In the West; Western nations were In the midst or the Great De• pre - ion, which played havoc with their economies. Stalin achieved this impressive rate or growth at a huge cost in lives. Since he needed food to feed the workers the cheal)t"st way possible, he confiscated the property and goods of the Russian peasants, forc- ing them Into the collective farm system. Wilen the kulaks (wealthy peas- ants fought Stalin's plans, they w.,re "liquidated." Millions died during Stalin's collectivization drive. Others perished during the great Russian famlne or 1931·32, which was caused by the chaos re• sulti g from collectivization. The Soviet economy expanded at an Impressive rate and industrial production rose at approximately 15 percent a year. This economic growth continued at a rapid pace for 30years. To keep his "real and imagined" enemies under control, Stalin relied on the secret police. Fo.r a quarter of a century, he ruled the nation with an Iron hand. · "Stalin's internal policies were so secretive, the West was unaware of much of what was happening In that nation," Drlnan explained. "Today the Soviet society is far more open - this fact is evident by the type of jokes circulating throughout Mos- cow."
