arrest or who dropped into obscurity All that is's known is that their names no longer grace the pages of the Soviet press IS Counterbalancing the deaths and disappearances there were a few reappearances last year a For example there are the dozen11 or more leading Moscow physicians who were thrown into jail in 1952 and charged with plotting to assas sinate leading Soviet figures Charges Faked Though it was announced these men had made confessions it was suddenly discovered after the death of Stalin that the charges were faked The doctors were freed rehabilitated in professional life and several of them have written articles since their not about their prison experiences Another notable example is that 'of GI Petrovsky an Old Bolshevik who rose to chieftainship of the Ukraine He disappeared in the late 11930s and it was assumed that he was another purge victim who had somewhere in Siberia or had been executed in some cellar But 'a short time after Stalin's death 'Petrovsky was awarded an important 'government decoration for his services to the Communist party and state 1 The turnover in the personnel of ruling circles last year be-'cause of or great Stalin Top Loss Leading the Soviet obituary notices of course was Joseph Stalin who according to announcement died in his bed after a stroke in early March Close behind was the No 2 man deputy premier and police boss Lavrenty Beria who was officially reported executed for treason in December and the world-famed composer Sergei Prokofiev who died 'in March without even the benefit of an obituary in the Soviet press
