Into Gettysburg last week clicked a New Year's greeting from Russia's Khrushchev, Bulganin and Voroshilov ("We express the hope that the forthcoming year will be a year... when the great principles of peaceful coexistence...will become the basis of mutual relations between our states"") that turned out to be one of the week's cheerier messages to Dwight Eisenhower. At home, retired Defense Chief Charlie Wilson declared to New York Herald Tribune Washington Bureau Chief Robert J. Donovan (who wrote the authorized account, Eisenhower-The Inside Story) that Ike himself was to blame if this...
INDIA. Capitalizing on the desperate Indian drive to create a healthy, modern economy (TIME, Dec. 9), the Russians have set out to make India the showpiece of their Asian aid program. Out of the 1955 Bulganin-Khrushchev visit, India got one of Russia's rare outright gifts: $1,500,000 worth of agricultural equipment for a state-operated mechanized farm. More important, capital-starved India has also received $270 million in Soviet credits, nearly half of it earmarked for the Russian-designed Bhilai steel plant, which is being built under the supervision of Soviet technicians. Though it is only...

They sprang their showdown last June, and it was a close thing. The majority present voted to deny Khrushchev the chair, and Bulganin took over. Did the Old Guard think that because they had destroyed Stalin's police power, they could vote Khrushchev freely out of his job as they had voted Malenkov out before him? Khrushchev fought back, and the old commissars learned that the new party boss swung a new kind of political...
...notes showered on NATO members on the eve of the Paris conference, Soviet Premier Nikolai Bulganin dropped one calculated teaser: a proposal that both East Germany and West Germany ban the production and stockpiling of atomic weapons in their territories. If the two Germanys would agree to this, said Bulganin, Poland and Czechoslovakia would also adhere to the ban. A de-atomized zone would be created across Central Europe; tensions might be reduced...
