CapitaIF Free Portion
OF Romanian Industry
Offered u. ). Firms
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 2.-Signifcant
negotiations will open here next
week under which prominent Amer
ican corporations-without capital
investment or risk-would share
equally with Soviet government
agencies in the stock and profits of
a large segment of Romania's heavy
industry.
A spokesman for Nicholas Malaxa.
leading Eastern European indus
trlalist who is due here in the next
few days with a Romanian eco
nomic mission, said yesterday the
basic Malaxa plan was aimed at
the large scale introduction of
American business into Romania
with Russian cooperation.
The arrival of the mission will
coincide with the discussion in Paris
OF peace treaty recommendation
favorable to the extension of Soviet
power in Eastern and Central Eu-
rope.
U. S. Reported Sympathetic"
The so-called Malaxa formula has
been placed before the State Depart
ment. Bernard r. Lauren. attorney
for Malaxa Industries, said no final
and official position had been taken
but that the department was SYM
pathetic"
The Soviet government likewise
has taken no official position. Mr..
Lauren said, however. that Mr.
MalaXa would open negotiations
here after consultation with all
political parties in Romania and
with the knowledge of the Russian
authorities" ViSas for the mission
could not have been obtained with
out Soviet permission.
Briefly. the Malaxa plan would
operate this way: His vast locomo-
tive plant. for example, would be
leased to an operating company
Fifty one per cent of the stock
would be held by Mr. Malaxa. A
sizeable block of stock, say 20 per
cent, would go TO some designated
Soviet agency. Another 20 per cent
would go to some American cor
poration under contract. Then 9
per cent would be given to the
Romanian government.
No u. S. Capital Required.
The American corporation would
not be required to invest any capital
1t would be obligated, however, to
furnish engineering skill and desig-
mated amounts of materials and
products. Payment for these Mr..
Lauren said. would be made in
dollars
In effect Mr.. Malaxa would give
away 49 per cent of the stock in
the joint stock companies operat-
ing his various interests in return
for Russian cooperation and ma
terial aid, American skill and ma
terials and insurance that he would
retain control
Some negotiations already have
been conducted with three North
American concerns-Henry Kaiser,
the Massey-Harris Corp. of Canada,
maker of tractors and agricultural
equipment, and the Nashville Bridge
Co. with the aid of which Mr..
MalaXa hopes to revive his pre-
war construction of fabricated steel
vessels

SET FOR DEAC0NS
Coach Feathers Believes
Kicking Department May
Tell Story

RALEIGH, Oct. 14.-(P-Faced
with the prospect that the diffe--
ence between victory and defeat in
their important game with Wake
Forest Saturday may lie in the
kicking department, Coach Beattie
Feathers Monday promised the N.
c State Wolfpack plenty of practice
this week on its kicking game.
Feathers noted that in last Sat
uTday's victory over Davidson, Bert
Dressler, States kickoff specialist
got off some short, wobbly boosts,
that Jim Byler, in charge of the
plaee-kick department missed three
Or four extra point t-ys, and that
Howard Turner, one of~four Wolf
packs punters, sent one kick
straight up in the air for an ad-
Vance of only two yards.
Feathers refused to single out
any Of his players for praise fo-
the Davidson victory, saying that
tile entire State line played wei,
and most of the backs also showed
up 10 advantage"
The team came out of the David
son game in fine shape physi-
caIly, and the Wolfpack should be
at top strength for the Deacons
Unless injuries are sustained in
THIS weeks practice.
