I have a collection of poetry by Evtushenko published in 1962 by Russian
Language Specialties, Chicago. "Nasledniki Stalina" is the first poem in
this collection. It indicates the source as Pravda 21 oktiabria 1962 g.
The word "Partiia" is there: "Velela ne but' uspokoennym Partiia mne." I
am pretty sure that the text is taken from the original "Pravda" text. If
you send me your e-mail address (I have deleted your original message) I
will e-mail you a scan of this poem. But if you really need a copy of the
original "Pravda" maybe you should try The Library of Congress.

My e-mail address is k.kustanovich at vanderbilt.edu
Best,
Konstantin
