(Koop Studio) Khrushchev's Never-Ending Double Talk Creates Belief He's Stalling In Blitz Plan By JAMES MARLOW Associated Prats News Analyst WASHINGTON IP One o our troubles is that we can't see through Premier Khrushchev's head. He extends a friendly hand one minute, a fist the next. But we don't know what he has up his sleeve. A great many Americans have tried to analyze the meaning of the recent on-again-off-aRain So viet tactics. But this writer hasn't seen or heard of one explanation yet that looks foolproof. It's possible the Soviets's sudden reversals in recent months from nice to nasty to nice are the product of simple bumbling and stumbling In foreign policy or of internal Communist party conflicts hidden from sight. It's also possible the Soviets don't rare much what they do or say from month to month so long as I hey keep a couple of balls in the air. make propaganda, and keep stalling on disarmament or finding ways to prevent surprise attacks. What Khrushchev has in mind for 3. or 5. or 10 years from now for the United States is something we can only guess at. And in this contest guessing carries a chilly feeling. Is KhTuth Stalling? For, through all the shifting gears of the Kremlin one gruesome thought persists: Is Khrushchev stalling until he feels strong enough In wipe us out with a surprise at tack? That's possible too. It's almost certain neither side is going to talk seriously about dis armament, and for various reasons. One is enough: so long as both are heavily armed each has a measure of safety from attack by the other. But how much safety from sur prise attack each has is something only thp top men on both sides know. It would seem to behoove this country to keep its defenses A-l for years to come. An individual in this country who tried to make perfect sense out of all the Soviet twists, following them down the dark alleys of the mind, could wind up in a loony hin. An example is given near the end of this story. This year, after spending months huilding up propaganda for a sum mit meeting, or appearing to do so. Khrushchev all hut knocked the idea of a summit conference out the window. The same with the Geneva talks, where American and Communist The Greatest lloluDifclf. Whosoever hear-1 deth these sayings ! Ul UlillU V UVV7UI them, is likened unto a wise man, who built his house upon a rock. Mat. 7:24-27 Intel !Jp.iM.gCtLnJUlP5LkL! On. Man. July 7, 1958 i i r J I scientists are now discussing ways to- prevent cheating if there is agreement against further nuclear testing. At the last minute the So viets seemed to he scuttling the meeting. Then they sent their scientists to Geneva. If No Impaction, What? And Khrushchev this past week, after practically torpedoing a sum mit conference, proposed to Presi dent F.isenhowcr technical talks on how to prevent surprise attacks. He failed to acknowledge that Ki senhower himself had proposed Uus last January. Khrushchev knows what this! country wants to prevent surprise attack: a good inspection system. But this week Pravda. right on the heels of Khrushchev's proposal, made joke of any inspection sys tem. The Communist party newspaper suggested American inspection teams, in flving over the Soviet Union, might gather intelligence information for an American sur prise attack. If there's to be no inspection sys tem, what's the solution? Just trust, Pravda said. That's some an swer. Since there's no trust at alt, hoth sides will remain heavily arm ed and capable of attack. Which hrings up a question: Why did Khrushchev mention it at all? Maybe just to keep talking.

Creen District Denied Sewer Project Loan (Continued From Page One) of a heavy taxation load to pay debt service requirements and es tablish a debt service reserve. Big Tax Burden Involved Moherg savs failure of the dis trict to obtain the estimated num ber of starting connections or at tain the growth anticipated would require raising a subsantial amount by taxation. He says a to tal $573,580 would be required to pay off the system. This is an av erage of $24,937 per year for the last 23 years. Based on an av erage of 460 connections per year for 25 years and the attendant maintenance and operation ex penses, an average annual revenue of about $73 per connection would be required. And this figure leaves no allowance for depreciation. Moberg says 25 to 50 per cent of the requirement would have to he raised annually through taxes. With only 350 connections, the ex timaled number when operations start, more than half the require ment would have to come from taxes collected in the face of strong local opposition. Coiti Would Be High Finally, the acting director says the costs are very high for the tvpe of service area involved. He says the district is composed of moderate homes, but it includes many neglected homes and unde veloped properties. He says the proposed system would cost more then $1,000 per connection. In addi tion, he says, the customers would he required to pay the cost of the house connections at an estimated J2 per foot and a $75 connection fee Moherg does not close the door cntnplctelv in his notice of the 11HFA refusal. He says the "need for the proposed sewer facilities is evident ami. therefore, you may be assured that any new evidence received rebutting the unfavorable factors enumerated will be care fully considered."
