To be filed under "B"

...for "better late than never." The celebrated folk singer Pete Seeger has finally broke with Stalin--in song, of course. He's got the "Joe Stalin blues." Seeger says he left the Communist Party in the l950s, but is only now making known his feelings about the world's most prolific serial killer. As I said, "better late than never." As contentious as history can be, I think that it would be impossible at this point in world history to find much of anything admirable in the Generalissimo.

nah, that was only in Italy and Germany...the trains ran late in the USSR because they were always having to make room in the schedule for prisoner transports. That tended to build in delays...
