...Italian Communist delegation, led by Luigi Longo, No. 2 to Italian Communist Leader Togliatti, was warmly received, and Comrade Longo was reportedly much interested in Tito's "workers' management," which he described as "direct democracy." On the other hand, the French Communist Party, rigidly controlled by the Molotov-Suslov faction, it was said, was dragging its feet on invitations to send a delegation to confer with Tito...
Dining with Marshal Tito at Brioni last month, Russia's First Party Secretary Nikita Khrushchev, his big mauler wrapped around a glass of slivovitz. gave a toast to Socialism. Said he: "Socialism is like an army marching. If one man is out of step, it spoils everything." Cracked a lesser Yugoslav at Nikita's bent elbow: "When a soldier is out of step is it the fault of the soldier or of the music that's being played?''

...Foreign Minister Dmitry Shepilov ranged against such anti-Titoists as Presidium Members Molotov, Kaganovich, Suslov and Soviet President Voroshilov.

And to underscore Molotov's attitude towards Tito himself, a story was being told of a Peking reception at which...
...visit to Belgrade of Communist delegations from some satellite states was being explained as a triumph for Tito's bold policy of more independence for those countries-but also as a sign of Khrushchev's inability to sell that liberalized policy to his Kremlin colleagues. It was given out that, although relations are improving (e.g., ousted Hungarian Premier Imre Nagy, who has Tito's backing, was reinstated to Communist Party membership last week), there were still many outstanding "ideological differences" between satellites Hungary. Rumania, Bulgaria and independent Yugoslavia...
