— ‘Inequities in Soviet a

Social opportunit

Marked. social inequalities
persist in the Soviet nion 60
yeara after the Bolshevik
Revolution, according to a
textbook on the U.S.S.R, just
published here.

A differential | wage
structure rewards the highly
educated but is weighted
against the unskilled worker.
And the responsibility rests
with Stalin.

This is the view of David
Lane, one of 11 contributors
to.a book called The Soviet
Union, edited by Prof. R.W.
Davies and published by
George Allen and Unwin.

‘Lane says the existence of
Stratification and social in-
equality in the Soviet Union
ig clearly established, in
terms of income, status and
educational i eer

Within the intelligentsia,

there ig a very wide
dispersion of income, status
and educational opportunity,
he says.

Lane says the ratio bet:
ween the wages of a factory
manager and the average
worker could be about 13:1.
DIFFERENCES WIDE

“The largest differential
reported in Western emigre
sources is a ratio of 00:1 be-
tween the highest and lowest
income, and a ratio of 100:1
between the highest and
average.” .

Lane says the leaders of
the 1917 revolution aimed to
create an egalitarian society
as soon as. the material

_ conditions for equality had

been established,

But they found = it
necessary to introduce wage
differentials which were
considerably increased when

Stalin declared that in the
socialist stage of soclety
man was expected Lo “give
according to his ‘ability and
receive according to his
work."

In the Soviet Union there
are three recogni “non-
antagonistic” social groups:
the collective farmers, al
present making Up about 22

r cent of the working
population: the working
class, 54 per cent: and the
intelligentsia, 24 per cent:

Lane says there appears to
be a hierarchy of status in
the Soviet Union with
professional ‘creative jobs
such as scientists, and
medical specialists at the top
and manual, unskilled work-
ers at the bottom. :
CONTROL EDUCATION

‘N. J. Dunstan, a lecturer

- Courts crack down on
_ Fishing violations

Newfoundland courts are
cracking down on foreign
fishing captains who violate

Canada's 320-kilometre

economic management zone.

Three fishing captains,
from East
Soviet Union and West
Germany, have appeared in
_ provincial court this year on
charges of fishing iegally
within the 320-kilometre
mone, . . .
Capt, Franz Bankert of the
East, Germén trawler
Werner Kube was ‘fined
$3,000 Feb. 27 and had his
eatch valued at $795 con-
fiscated when he pleaded
guilty to a charge of
breaking Canadian. fishing
regulations.

The Werner Kube had been
boarded a week ear ier by
Canadian fisheries officers

Newfoundland’s = northern

was the first against an East

Federal fisheries officers
aboard the coast guard

vessel John Cabot arrested

him off Labrador in late

January. :

The West German captain
appeared in court Feb. 7;
was fined $5,000, had - his
trawl confiscated and had to
forfeit $25,-000, half the vaiue

‘of the fish he caught in

Canadian waters.

Capt. Yevgenily Gusev of
the Soviet trawler
Vyborgskaya Storona was
released on an $85,000 bond
when he appeared in court
here Feb. 8. He was ordered
to return to court March 14 to
enter a plea. -

TRAWLER BOARDED

The Soviet trawler was
boarded by a fisheries of-
ficer from the fisheries
patrol ship Cape Roger about
210 kilometres east of Belle
Isie, Nild. and Gusev was
charged with using a trawl .
7.5 millimetres below the»

continue despite the
maximum fines that the
courts are dealing out. But
fisheries inspectlon officers -
are pressing down hard on
foreign fishing cuntains who
break Canadiai fishing
regulations and the courts
are taking a severe view of
the transgressions.

The West German was the
first foreign captain charged
under Canadian foreign

fishing regulations this year toda:

off Newfoundland, and it was
the first time that undersized
trawling gear has’ been
confiscated as part of the
sentence. .

Amendments to the fishing
regulations which came jnto
effect this year allow
fisheries officials to con-
fiscate any foreign fishing
vessel, gear and catch.

says in another chapter that
as with all Soviet: in-

party and ite various com: -

mittees exercise ultimate
control of the education
system and permeate it at all

points. . -

“Marxism-Leninism is
neld to be the sole repository
of truth and the party is its
unique interpreter: and
driving force. The school is
one of the various tran-
smission belts conveying its
impulses to the masses. The
goal is the transformation of
society.” .

However there has always
been a problem of how to
teach morality.

Dunstan mentions @ book
for Soviet children which
offers this ‘advice: “if you
feel sad or worried, go to the
mausoleum and spend a few
quiet moments there, with

geography of the Soviet
Union’s industry, science
