PORTSMOUTH, Ohio (UPI) A Russian family of four visited a supermarket and kept busy on other sightseeing junkets to day on a week-long visit to this Ohio River city. The Viktor Pozdncycv family from Moscow was here for a "typical American Christmas visit" as an international good will gesture sponsored by the Portsmouth Junior Chamber of Commerce. Pozdneyev, his wife, Nina, and their children, Anatoli, 17, and Oliia, 6, appeared to be enjoy ing themselves, despite a busy schedule mapped for them dur ing tho holiday visit. They ar rived here lute Thursday night and spent the following day meeting local citizens and at tending a Chamber of Com merce lunch. However, a high school bas ketball game the family was supposed to attend Friday night was postponed until tonight Pozdneyev, who cannot spcaK English, was presented a key to the city at the lunch attended by more than 200 chamber members and other guests. I hope this will be a key to the hearts of everyone in Ports mouth," the Moscow auto work er replied through an interpret er, Nadia May of Huntington, W. Va. "We are delighted to ne in your great country and wo feel lucky we were chosen to come here." Mrs. Pozdneyev, a Moscow English teacher, was the only one of the family able to speak English. However, young Ana toli appeared to be getting past the language barrier with the son of the host, Portsmouth in surance man Jim McKenzie, Anatoli and Philip McKenzie, 14, pointed with their fingers and managed to convey their ideas. They will attend a bas- because of the closeness of the vote early today a few vote switches or return of absentees might reverse the verdict. The agreement followed an all night meeting that broke up after dawn. It gave President Johnson a chance to recoup af ter a stunning setback to his prestige in the early morning vote. The action capped what al ready has been the longest ses sion of Congress since World War II. The conference committee put a 30-day time limit on the Pres ident's report to Congress in such transactions. Thus the House will have to vote on a slightly modified ver sion of the language which It rejected by a 141 to 136 margin in the early hours this morning. Sen. John O. Pastore, D-R.L, said the slight change was of fered by House conferees and was "positively satisfactory to us." Rep. Otto Passman, D - La., told newsmen that he will vote for the provision and urge its approval although "I dislike it with a passion." Asked whether, in . fact, it was he who proposed the slight ly modified wheat guarantee provision to the conference com mittee, Passman replied that he would rathor say it was the agreed action of the Senate House conference committee. Technically, the language is designed to ond a controversy over whether the Export - Im port Bnnk can guarantee credit arrangements in such sales to . Communist nations as tho pro posed deal for U.S. wheat. The guarantee proposal has been controversial in both houses and the Senate will have to vote on the compromise bill if the House reverses Itself and ap- knthnll Pnmn at Phllln's sehnnllPfOVCS .1110 Slightly modified a fv;vf tonight, since the Russian boy is a sports fun.

Stuart Symington, D-Mo., pro posed this week that Gen. Douglas MacArthur receive tho ultimate tribute" from the na lion by muking him a six-star general of the armies. The rank was conferred only once before on the late Gen. John J. Pershing. Symington, in introducing a bill to carry out the proposal, said MacArthur is a "towering figure" of the times that em braced World War II and the Korean conflict. Woman Found Dead In Car; Man Is Held SALEM (VP!) A 22-year-old Brooks man was being question ed today in connection with tho death of an 18-year-old Salem woman here early today. Polk County Sheriff's deputy Lee Edwards said the death was "apparently accidental." The body of Mrs. Joyce Lee Thomas, Salem, and her uncon scious main companion were discovered in a cur parked in Wallace Park, just outside the Salem city limits, at 4:15 a.m. The car was discovered by Edwards on a routine patrol. The man, whom Edwards did not identify, was taken to a Sa lem hospital for treatment. Edwards said the pair "had been in the car some time witli the motor running."

The wheat salo controversy, for 24 hours, has been the ma jor hurdle to adjournment. The Upset for Johnson early came a a point when the long fight over foreign aid had ap peared at last over and settled. Backs Aid Fight -; Johnson threw his full pres tige Into the fight. He had said that the House ban infringed on his constitutional authority in the foreign policy field. He alsq warned that enactment ot the credit ourb could wreck pros pects of selling large quantities ol U.S. surplus wheat to HusBia and other Communist nations. ' House leaders labored through the day Friday and early tliis morning to set up the crucial vote. But it was session-end ab senteeism that finally blasted their hopes. All told, 26 Democrats desert ed the fold to vote for the curb, while 133 voted against it. But 95 Democrats were not present. On the Republican side, 115 Republicans voted for the ban, while only 3 voted against it; CO did not vote. The House-authored ban on grain sale credit was part of its version of the foreign aid money bill. Hurdle Appeared Cleared Friday night, it appeared the major obstacle to adjournment had been hurdled when negoti ators from the House and Sen ato agreed on a compromise $3 billion aid measure, about $600 million less Hum Congress had authorized. The key to the settlement, however, was a compromise curb on tho use of government credit for the proposed wheat sales. Under the compromise Congress would go on record against such government In volvement in the sale, but would leave tho final decision to the President. The Republicans decided, however, to make the original credit ban and rejection of the compromise a party issue. At first, Democratic leaders ap peared ready to drop the whole matter until Congress starts Its second session in January. Then Johnson, In a last-mm-utc plea, told the leaders he wanted the aid bill finally en acted and the anti-trade clause removed or modified before Congress quit for the year. Since taking office Nov. 22, the President has won a number of tests in Congress. On this one, it developed, he stretched his luck too far and lost. It was a bitter defeat not only for Johnson but for his House leaders who had labored to turn the earlier House decision around. They thought until the end they had it won.
