SUNDAY, MARCH 19. 1961 10 A Russian Split With Communist China Not Believed To Be Deliberate Plant MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, ORE. By STEWART HENSLEY Washington-UPD-Did Russia deliberately plant exag gerated accounts of its split with Red China in an effort to lull the West into a sense af false security? Was this a Kremlin device to influence the United Stales and its allies to look with more favor on Soviet propos als when contrasted with the tough Chinese attitude? Most Soviet affairs expert: here, after studying all th available evidence, don't thin so. But they do believe that the Russians, once news of the widening gap became gen erally known, decided to try to get some mileage out of it. The Reds have done this by hinting in talks with Western officials that it might be well for Moscow and the West to bury some of their differences to take a bit of steam out of the Chinese psychological of fensive. Informants here sny that the line has been that som concessions to Moscow by the West would strengthen Soviet Premier Nikila S. Khrush chev's arguments that negolia tion instead of war was the better way to deal with world problems. Yanki Not Buying The Chinese Communists challenge this view, accusing Russia of deviating from pure Comunist dogma which calls for an inevitable military con flict. American authorities are not "buying" the Soviet hints that accommodation on Mos cow terms might be wise in some instances. One principal reason Is that they think Sino-Soviet differ-' ences, while of some magni tude, do not really threaten continued solidarity of the monolithic Communist front In the master plan for event- General Electric Survivor Quits New York (UP William S.

(UPI Telcpholo) ual elimination of Western democracies. Reports of the bitter wrangling between Russian and Chinese delegates at the big Moscow conference last January reached the West shortly after the end of the meeting, which was attended by representatives of Commu nist parties from 81 countries. These reports, which came through Poland and other east European C 0 m m u nist countries, even quoted long excerpts from the extremely bitter exchanges in which the Chinese accused the Russians of being "soft" on capitalism. The fact that the East European Reds suggested to the West the advisability of taking advantage of the situ ation to make up with Russia increased the suspicion In some Western quarters that the Russians might be deliber ately planting the reports. However, a thorough re check of all Intelligence sources has convinced experts here this this was not the case. The belief is, too, that Khrushchev would not Inten tionally risk further inflam mation of relations with Pei ping simply to attempt a du bious experiment to delude the West. The view here is that the Russians tried to suppress re ports of the bitterness, but were unable to do so because of the large number of Com munist delegates present from so many countries. When the news came out, according to the reasoning here, the Kremlin simply de cided to see what use it could make of a bad situation. THEY'RE HERE!
