(UPI Telephoto) Honeymoon for De Gaulle, Parliament May End Paris (DPD-The new year may mark the end of the honeymoon for President Charles de Gaulle and Par liament, sources close to the chief executive said Saturday. They gave two reasons: De Gaulle is irritated by what he feels is parliamentary "sniping" at his programs for the "salvation" of France and may try to call a popular ref erendum to end it. De Gaulle feels the legis lators have returned to the rambunctious ways of the old Fourth Republic, which ended when he took office. It is believed unlikely that de Gaulle would try to bring about new parlimentary elec tion since he could hardly expect to get another legis lative body with such a huge majority in his favor. He has ' won confidence votes with ease in the nation al assembly. His Algerian "self-deterination" policy was approved by a 441-23 vote. And a motion to censure his ban of pensions for able-bodied war veterans got only 109 votes last month, with 277 needed. Policies Protected However, some members of his majority have deserted him to protect his Algeria and veterans' policies. In addition, a concerted parliamentary campaign forc ed de Gaulle to withdraw a bill aimed at gradually end- "o)fij (Pfjfi ronr jo w iyj Lro J On Hi Fi LP s Stock MUST Stereo.

Many legislators also have been hostile to his policy of Skin Diver to Raise Old Japanese Sub San Pedro, Calif. - (UPD-A skin diver said Saturday he plans to attempt raising of a Japanese sub sunk off the southern California coast al most exactly 18 years ago during World War II. Bob Bell, who also oper ates the Industrial Diving Service, said he personally had visited the sub on two different occasions and was convinced it could be brought to the surface without too much difficulty. But ,Bell said he delayed any decision on the salvage operation because he did not believe sale of the 70-foot craft for scrap would make the project worthwhile. He said negotiations were under way to film the undertaking and he was hopeful the op eration could be started "sometime after the first of the year." 50 of our entire GO to make room for Artists!

Khru shchev to visit France in March. Under Article 16 of the New Constitution, the presi dent has" the right to "take the measure imposed by cir cumstances," including dis solution of parliament, but only when "the republican in stitutions, the territorial in tegrity or the carrying-out of international c o m m i tments are gravely and immediately menaced." But sources close to de Gaule believe he more prob ably has in mind a change that would cut off parliamen tary . debate of an issue for the remainder of the legisla tive session once it has come to a vote.

Russian Paper Lists K's Summit Agenda Moscow - (0PD - Soviet Pre mier Nikita Khrushchev will go to the summit meeting de termined to start off where the Geneva foreign ministers' conference and the Camp Da vid talks left off, the news paper Izvestia said Saturday. Khrushchev accepted the Western invitation to the East-West meeting Friday, but made no mention of an agenda. The Western Allies want to discuss disarmament, East-West relations, and the Berlin problem when they Soraya Said Cool To Italian Prince St. Moritz, Switzerland-CPD -Sultry ex-Empress Soraya of. Iran, her ardor for Italian Prince Raimondo Orsini ap parently cooled, Satuaday rented a candle-lit lounge for a party and invited her new beau. Only a day after Orsini can celled his plans to join her for a skiing vacation, match makers at this Alpine resort were linking Soraya roman tically with German indus trialist Harald von Bohlen und Halbach of the Krupp empire. Friends said von Bohlen, 42, had accepted an invitation to her party Sunday night at a fashionable inn. Orsini, 28, whose engage ment to Soraya had been ex pected more than a week ago, flew alone to Beirut Friday night from Rome. During a recent nightclub whirl in Rome, Orsini had wined, dined and kissed the 27-year-old Soraya, who lost her throne in Iran because she bore no male heir to the Shah. The Shah, who married for the third time last Monday, is reported to pay her $8,000 a month as part of her divorce settlement. Russian Expedition Reaches South Pole Moscow - (CPU The Soviet Antarctic expedition reached the American base at the South Pole Saturday at the end of a 1,660-mile overland trek that took three months, the Soviet news agency, Tass, reported. Tass said Alexander Dral- kin, leader of the expedition, reported by radio that the ex pedition made a "comprehen sive investigation of nature" along the route. - RECORD CITY meet Khrushchev in Paris this spring. They oppose seek ing an interim Berlin solu tion, preferring to keep the status quo. Berlin Question The official government newspaper made it clear that Khrushchev expects to re sume the unsettled arguments of Geneva, where the foreign ministers failed to reach agreement on. a Berlin solu tion. His starting point at the Paris talks undoubtedly will be whatever progress was made at Geneva toward an interim agreement. After his Camp David talks last September with Presi dent Eisenhower, Khrushchev agreed there would be no time limit set for Soviet de mands that Western troops withdraw from West Berlin and give the Western sectors "free city" status. Violent Opposition The estern package agenda, worked out by the Big Four leaders at Paris last week, has met with violent opposition in the Soviet press since its an nouncement. The official newspapers have left little doubt that Khrushchev will insist on dis cussing Berlin separately from disarmament and what ever other problems the West brings to the summit. Khrushchev's acceptance of the invitation came as no sur prise to Western observers here. The press had foreshad owed it by a series of articles reacting favorable to the Western offer. Khurshchev Gats Credit Izvestia gave Khrushchev most of the credit for getting the four powers together. The newspaper said the forthcoming summit talks are the result of "a series of im portant events, the most im portant of which was N. S. Khrushchev's historic visit to the United States."
