This has leJ to a series of drastice moves in the past week, including the arrest of the former Foreign Minister Mr. Eajk. Reliahle sources say further developments ean be expected and Eumania may be the next country where ruthless measures are instigated. These measures would affeet three of the leading Commun:v members of the Government, firstly, the foreign hHnister, Anna Pauker; sqeondly, vice-premier Gheorghiu-dej ; thirdly, the Minister of Interior, Mr : Georgiescu. From the Eussian point of view, Ai- 1 bania, despite the 3000 strong Russian military mission and execution last week of Viee-Premier General Koce Xoce, is a point of extreme inseeurity. Albania might decide at any moment to side with Tito in deiianee of t.he Cominform.
