Correspondent . Washington - They brought Premier Khrushchev into town via the dog pound, but it was as quiet -no strays bavin? at. the I moon or yelp I ing at the pass A ing parade - ' & as the thous ands who took their first glimpse of the Kremlin boss I in. stoney si- A. Robt. Smith lence. The Soviet .leader's first view of the"U.S-A. during his drive from the airport was not what the tour guides show the tourists. It was not the most scenic side of Washington, but it was an Honest side. It was the workingman's side - and whether or. not Khrushchev thought it : showed any ele ments of a worker's paradise He didn't let on. The dual-lane highway lead ing into : the city from An drews i Air Force Base cuts . through rolling countryside that is landscaped and devoid of all 'commercial-billboards because the government owns the land.' A Tass (the Soviet - news agency) correspondent said it was similar in appear ance to'the road leading from ' the airport outside Moscow. Sign of Capitalism The first, outright ' sigfl of capjtaliimt ;was gasr station plastered with ads. Dotting the land adjacent to the highway were post-war apartment de velopments, with autos parked everywhere, so symbolic of American suburbia. ' , Then the' motorcade passed a building with a banner hung across the end which said: "Visit this warehouse. Product of free enterprise." It was the . only sign noted along the en tire 15-mile route aimed at the Soviet visitor. Then came unpretentious brick dwellings with their un tidy wooden backstairs show ing. Then the industrial plants cement, sand, oil - along the Anacostia River. Then the backside of ancient slums that are yielding to the wreckers' blows. ' .'- :. Next the dog pound, a play ground lined with Negro youngsters on their lunch hour, a coal yard stacked with rusting steel tubing, a dry cleaning plant, an auto dealer with a window full of shiny capitalistic merchandise. A new freeway, going up on .a. forest of concrete pillars. came into view. Then more construction the site of the third congressional office - building, and the capitol dome laced like an old corset with catwalks required by its cur rent face-lifting. -. - Then into the crowds that lined the curbing of the fed eral . city's downtown area where government employees had left their offices to see the big man from the other side of the world. They were a curious, rubber-necking bunch who watched the two leaders ride up the. street together. 1 SAVE MONEY!

As he turned the ' corner, seated alone in the back seat of . the open . car, the crowds who had waited cut loose.' And Ike,' after holding a reserved, almost grim demeanor much of the time after Khrushchev landed, finally turned on that famous grin and raised his hat high in the air.

Hollywood (DPD Russia's Premier Nikita Khrushchev's visit to the United States, in cluding his junket to movie land, brought forth two reac tions from the stars: , A battle royal to have lunch with ,: the Communist mogul Saturday, and a dread of being quoted about his visit. 20th Century - Fox . Studios has been inuadated by TV and film stars demanding invita tions to the lunch, reminiscent of what most stars encounter when they tour the boondocks. It wouldn't be surprising to find, some of the celebraties equipped ..with autograph books. Despite their curiosity, the glamour folk are afraid to state their opinions, not want ing to. go on record one way or the other. . . , , Stars Speak Minds ' Some, howeyer, did. speak their minds: : ' Danny Thomas - "Let us conduct ourselves in such a manner ,t hat when Mr. Khrushchev v departs he is shaken in the knowledge that among these happy, prosper ous and strong people he will find no converts to his godless cause." ' , J Natalie Wood - "The Presi dent has invited him, and I'm sure the President knows what he is doing." Burt Lancaster "Mr, Khrushchev's visit is a won derful idea. Everyone can't just stay in his own backyard and expect to find peace. Ann Sothern - "I hope Mr. K likes the U.S. as much as I dO." ' : Glenn Ford - "Mr Khrush chev will be here as the guest of our President and govern ment, and it is anticipated he will be extended . the same courtesies and consideration we expect our President to receive when he visits Rus sia." , .. .. ; Refuses to Attend Ronald Reagan - who re fused to .attend the luncheon: "The . President erred in ask ing Americans" to accept Khrushchev's visit as a friend ly gesture. This nation does not have the moral obligation to repay the courtesy extend ed Vice President Nixon in Russia." ' ' - Jimmy Durante -. "I'm al ways happy to see somebody with less than I got." Art Linkletter - "I'nv glad Khrushchev is visiting this country because I . think he's a shrewd man and will see for himself what, others can only tell him.4' Janet Leigh - "I'm for any thing that's going to make the world a safer place in which to live." . Joel McCrea - "I hope Mr. K's visit will be without, inci dent that would have a de rogatory effect on his opinion of the U.S. I personally am not enthusiastic or optimistic about the visit." Hopes for Good Raymond Burr - "If any of this gets back to the Russian j people through Mr. Khrush chev it will be all to the good." Milton Berle - "Considering the speed with which the Rus sians reached the moon, how come Khrushchev was a half hour late arriving in Washing ton." Most outspoken of the stars was crusty Ward Bond of the TV's "Wagon Train" series, who blasted: "I cannot understand how so many actors and producers whom I've known for 25 years can break bread with this man Khrushchev. I can't under- rstand what's in their minds The State Department must have coerced some of them into doing this. The flag on m house flies at half-mast as of Tuesday morning, and will remain that way until he leaves."
