Soviet Union, Red China Approaching Showdown Stage Over Nikita Khrushchev's Policy By PHIL NEWSOM VPI Foreign News Analyst As the Soviet Union and Red China have approached the show-; down stage in their dispute over Nikita Khrushchev's policy of co existence vs. the Chinese hard line, both have sent emissaries throughout the world support. Khrushchev lost the support of Ho Chi Minh of North Viet Nam but won Outer Mongolia. Similar ly, he won the support of Fidel Castro but lost the Communist party of Indonesia, largest out side the Communist bloc. With less to begin with. Red China seems to have made the great gains. Most of the Asian Communist parties have lined up on her side and a majority of Communist parties throughout the world at east have Chinese actions. No Accident So, it hardly could have been by accident that Khrushchev, when he decided to help East German strongman Walter 111 bricht observe his 70th birthday in East Berlin this week, also de cided to invite along the leaders of Communist Poland. Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria and Czecho slovakia. Perhaps significantly, Roman ian President Gheorghe Gheorgiu-Dej did not answer the summons, limiting himself in stead to a message of congratu- seeking lations to Ulbricht. For Khrushchev, when he re laxed the harsh dictates of Sta linism, not only incurred the en mity of the Red Chinese, he touched off an unexpected show of independence among the So viet Union's East European sat ellites. With the exception of Albania, all support his de - Stalinization program. But other differences present a picture which is far from the united front sought by Khrushchev.

Romania's strong-man, party chief Gheorghe Gheorgiu-Dej, was a notable absentee at the ilea rally at which Soviet Premier Ni kita Khrushchev ostensibly sought and received firm backing from the other satellite leaders for his ideological and political show down with the Peking regime in Moscow starting Friday.

The only public reaction was a telegram from Gheorgiu-Dej to, East German party boss waiter Ulbricht, congratulating him on his 70th birthday, the professed reason for the East Berlin Com munist get-together. Picture Clouded Differences between Romania and Russia and the rest of the European Red camp have cloud ed the relationship behind the Iron Curtain in recent months. But in the light of Romania's demonstrative absence from the Red summit they appear to go deeper than has been realized so far outside the Iron Curtain. Romania is experiencing an ec- onomic boom, unique among the satellites. Aware of its rich eco nomic resources, since Russia stopped milking it dry, Romania has embarked on a policy of all out industrial development. The pursuit of this policy has brought Romania into conflict with its Communist allies who are enforcing 3 policy of eeo nomic coordination of planning within Comecon, the alignment of the Communist countries for closer economic cooperation. Complying with tins policy would mean curbing Romania's industrial push and dropping vari ous ambitious plans for develop ing the country s own industries, in favor of socialist specializa tion." Romania has been paying lip service to this policy but has been dragging her feet 111 putting it into practice. Others, like Poland, Czechoslo vakia and East Germany all industrialized want other mem bers to confine themselves to less ambitious tasks and leave them ANSWERS 1SVD wnaa lNVHd313 OOIVXDOD 13N , ismnos ! 3V3df1D 01 -6 9 ' X z "I N3UIW iOHHVD NVD 13AOHS 3HaCOCHD NOIS dflD SSOiDV J I u 8 'L -S z I to provide the industrial needs or the bloc.

The Russians sought to persuade the Roma nians they should concentrate on oil and oil products and on food supplies. Moved Toward Industrialization But the Romanians, with prod ucts easily converted to hard cash on world markets, moved instead toward industrialization and worked out trade agreements around the world from India to good relations between Yugo slavia and the Soviet Union, Ro mania was working with Mar shal Tito's regime to expand fa cilities on the Danube.
