Reds Charge Flyer
Set Harsh Spy Trial
Firing Squad
Is Possible
Penalty

LONDON, May IL (AP)-
Pilot Francis C. Powers has
been charged with espionage
and Premier Nikita S. Khru-
shchev has promised: I'VE
shall try him-try him severely
as spy"
This was reported today by
the Soviet news agency Tass.
The penalty for espionage in
the Soviet Union ranges from
10 years in prison to execution
by a firing squad.
The latest developments were
announced in Tass broadcasts
from Moscow today in the
wake Of the news conference
Premier Khrushchev held yes
terday at the Moscow exhibit
Of espionage articles which the
Russians say Powers CARVED
when he was downed while
flying over Russia May /.
Slowed by Censorship
Part of Western correspond
entS' dispatches on the news
conference had been held up
in Moscow censorship. Tass'
account Of Mr.. Khrushchev's
remarks was carried from Mos
COW 20 hours after the news
conference took place.
The Tass version carried this
exchange between correspond
ents and the Soviet Premier:
@. viii this plane incident

when Mr.. Eisenhower comes to
Moscow?
A. l would not like to be in Mr..
Eisenhower's place. would not
like to answer questions which
might be put to him when he
comes to the Soviet Union!
can only say the Soviet people
and our public are very polite,
so there will be no exceSes.
But questions will be asked of
course. Elimination, laughter.)
l would put it this way: One
person, namely Mr.. Herter. has
helped the President partic-
ularly in this respect. At his
press conference Mr.. Herter
made an outrageous statement!
Far from feeling guilty and
ashamed of aggressive actions,
he justifles them and says that
this will continue in the future.
Only countries which are in a
state Of war can act in this way.
We are not in a state of war
with America. These aggressive
actions and Herter's statement
are impudence, sheer impu-
dence!
Feels President Knew
The Tass answer from Mr..
Khrushchev continued:
"Herter's statement has made
us doubt the correctness of our
earlier conclusions that the
President, the American Gov
ernment, did not know about
the flights. Herter's statement
says that the plan was indorsed
by the Government.
The Americans, obviously,
we're compelled to say this be-
cause otherwise they would
have had to bring Allen Dulles

European Correspondent Of The Star
PARIS, May 12.-President
Eisenhower is not likely to visit
Russia in June, according to
senior American diplomats
gathering here for next weeks
summit conference.
In the opinion of these ex-
perts the latest outburst of
Russian Premier Khrushchev
virtually rules out the trip.
More than that, it puts a new
light on Russian plans for the
Big Four conference in Paris.
The new estimate is that
Premier Khrushchev is now
showing every sign of intend
ing to turn the summit con-
ference into a full-f1edged
propaganda circus. And in the
expectation that no significant
agreements will be reached
here, he is using the American
spy plane" incident as an ex-
cuSe for failure.
Short Farley Seen
If this estimate turns out to
be right, it is now felt that the
Paris conference might be
much shorter than originally
expected. If failure is obvious
it is even possible that it will
break up after two or three
meetings of the Big -Four.
There is an impression that
most informed experts were
surprised by Mr.. Khrushchev's
performance yesterday in Mos
COW. The Premier for the first
time personally attacked Mr..
Eisenhower, declared himself
Mortified by the Presidents

if Mr.. Khrushchev wants to
cancel the visit.
The congressman, who had
breakfast with the President at
the White House, reported that
much of the conversation was
about the Soviet Premier's re-
marks in Moscow yesterday
casting doubt on whether Mr..
Eisenhower would be a welcome
guest now because of the Amer
lean spy plane incident.
May Meet Privately
Representative Moore of West
Virginia quoted the President
as saying that he and Mr..
Khrushchev probably will dis
cuSs the matter in a private
meeting during the summit
conference opening in Paris
Monday.
Mrs. Anne Wheaton, acting
White House press secretary.
nodded afirmatively when
asked later If it is correct
that "as OF now the official
position is that the President
still expects to go to Russia"
Mrs. Wheaton also said the
President is considering making

MANILA, May IL (AP).-
Foreign Secretary Felixberto

United States. He said he will
discuss "the entire range of
Philippine-American relations"
with State Department officials
in Washington.

Trip to Russia Doubted
By Top U. S. Diplomats

and pointedly questioned the
possibility of receiving him as
a state guest. Mr.. Eisenhower,
for his part, had reafflrmed
his intention to go through
with his visit at his press con-
ference in Washington a few
hours earlier.
Allowing for the unreliability
of Mr.. Khrushchev's offhand
comments, 1t seemed to mark
an abrupt switch in the Rus
sian line on the plane incident.
Earlier the Russian leader had
carefully avoided directly i'm
plicating the President, stress
ing the idea that the spy fight
was the work of irresponsible
military men. His attitude
toward the whole affair, for all
the vehemence of his public
statements, was relaxed and
even gleeful.
Cancellation Likely
After yesterdays perform
ance, however, it is believed
that Mr.. Khrushchev intends
to exploit the incident as far
as possible, regardless of the
consequences. And one of
these is likely to be cancella-
tion of the Presidents trip.
1t is felt here that the can
collation. should not and prob
ably will not come from Wash
ington. Despite what has hap
pened, there is still every PROC
ability that Mr.. Eisenhower
if he goes to Russia-will be
well received by the people.
The possibility of a large-scale
public demonstration of friend
ship is one reason why Mr..

Budget Surplus of Billion Is Looked For This Year

WASHINGTON, R- The gov ernment next week will announce fiscal 1860 budget surplus closer to one billion dollars than to the 200 million dollars President Ei- senhoWer forecast in January, government sources reported to- day.
 Revenues have run higher and federal outlays somewhat lower than the figures sent to Congress in EisenhoWer's budget message. Those were O,000,000 in rev. enues and SIS, 100000 in out lays for the fiscal year that ended June 30.
 Therefore, despite earlier off cial prediction that the 1859 steel strike might throw the budget into the red, the administration will turn in it's third balanced budget in seven years.

No Appeasenent.. Says Kennedy To kI,rushchev

NEW YORK, R-Sen. John F. Kennedy said today "The next President must make it clear to Khrushchev that there will be no appeasement."
 The Democratic presidential candidate made the statement in an article under his byline, copy right by the Hearst Headline Ser vice and appearing in the New York Journal-American.
 ''In dealing with Khrushchev there is no Democratic, no Repub- lican way" said Kennedy.
 An election year may tempt Khrushchev to try to fish in our troubled waters, but he would be well advised to keep out of Am erican politics-for any interfer- ence on his part would boomerang on him. He should not mistake our election debates for national disunity on the fundamentals of our policy of resistance to Com munism."
 So long as Soviet rockets are first in the exploration of space, so long as the Soviet economy grows at a faster rate than ours, so long as we are slow to meet the challenge of the developing free nations of Asia, Africa and Latin America, Soviet power will be on the ascendance, and MT Khrushchev will treat us with contempt" he said.
