Westerners May Bid for Russian Chemical Trade MOSCOW (UPI) - Western businessmen but no Ameri cans were expected today to uiu iur me estimated $14 pillion in chemical plant business opened up by the Soviet Union's crasn program to build ud its chemical industry. Premier Nikita S. Khmsh. chev, in announcing the $46 bil lion seven-year plan before the Communist Party Central Com mittee meeting Monday, said that much of the equipment might have to be bought in the West. The meeting of the party leadership continued today in the Kremlin Hall of Congresses, with lower-level officials adding their comments to Khrush chev's plan, which was seen as certain of approval at the end oi tne week. Barred To Newsmen The sessions were ban-he in Western newsmen, but it was noted in Soviet press coverage that three Iod Cnmmunists I'loi Kozlov, Mikhail Suslov, and Otto V. Kuusinen have not been mentioned in the proceed ings. It was believed that all are ill. The United States appeared to be out of contention for the chemical equipment sales to Russia because of its commer cial credit policy. It does not grant long-term credits in sales to the Soviet Union because Moscow has not paid its multi billion dollar war debts. Former Texans Set Up Residence in Paraguay ASUNCION.
