At the same time, the official Tanjug news agency reported Tito said at a dinner with Khrushchev Wednesday night, "We have mutually arrived at the conclusion that m any things which have divided us in the nast have been mere trifles and that we are now faced with common interests and tasks." Tito's speech seemed to write the end to the two-nation strug gle that began in 1948 when the late Soviet dictator Josof Stalin expelled Yugoslavia from the Red movement for pursuing an inde pendent brand of communism. Wednesday at the same time, Khrushchev said political and eco nomic relations are developing "very well" between Russia and Yugoslavia. "During the course of the past few years, especially in recent times, the relations between the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia have been developing in the spirit of best mutual understanding and good cooperation on the govern ment level," Tito said. His remarks capped two duys of Tito Khrushchev talks and of speeches in which both leaders have hailed plans for economic collaboration between their na tions. Both men also have trump cted a new high in political cordiality. pointed out. "Based on the experi ence of other counties with this program, however, it is felt the number of families eligible for food because of low income has been much higher than usual for the summer months."

Caudill, 24, was found guilty in a trial Aug. 14 before Municipal Judge Warren A. Woodruff. The defendant was fined $100 and costs and sentenced to 90 days in jail. Oral notice of appeal to the Cir cuit Court was filed by the de fendant through his attorney, Har rison Winston. Caudill was releas ed after posting $500 bail. A complaint filed July 15 charg es the defendant with entering a Roseburg home where he was not invited and exposing himself in decently in front of a woman. for food last month was too low to warrant continuation of a local distribution program there, Eaton said. After August, families in the south Douglas area will have to come to Roseburg for their food. Eaton suggests forming car pools as a means of. cutting the cost of the trip.
