"It is unlikely that conditions in Berlin will change much now that Malenkov has taken over," Christopher Legge, former head of the U.S. Information Center in Berlin, said in a question period after his lecture last night.
Legge spoke before a hundred students in Burr Hall under the sponsorship of the United Nations Council. His talk concerned living conditions in East and West Berlin and the tense political situation in the city. It was illustrated by 150 colored slides taken during the past six years.
Referring to present educational conditions, Legge remarked, "Forty-three percent of those studying in the West are from the Soviet zone. They can never go back. If they did, they would be arrested immediately for capitalistic tendencies."
Legge, Berlin Information Director between 1946 and 1952, is presently doing library work at Columbia.
