Some Western European Communists went home with the feeling that the display of foreign dissent might fan the embers of Russia's native discontents. One Yugoslav observer, doubtless overly optimistic, even hazarded the premature observation that "the conference marked the beginning of a legitimate opposition in the Soviet Union." The leaders of the Soviet Union show no signs of extending to their own people the toleration they temporarily granted their foreign comrades.
