Perils of Pork

Sergei Mikhailkov is a big, blond, young Soviet wit who writes for children. Some months ago he began writing fables. Last week, in Moscow's Literaturnaya Gazeta, he devoted his twelfth fable to one of the Soviet Government's constant worries--the effect of foreign scenes and ways of life on Red Army men. Wrote Mikhailkov:

"Once a little pig was sent abroad. In lands and countries far away he grew up. When he came back home he had grown into a hog. Nothing seemed good enough for him and nothing pleased him here. He went around grunting about things he saw in foreign lands. And he looked exactly like foreign hogs abroad. I feel disgusted to mention him even in a fable."
