Coexistence
Is Backed by
Khrushc|1ev

LONDON, June % (AP) In
an apparent rebuke to Red
China's leaders, Soviet Premier
Khrushchev said yesterday the
Kremlin has no intention OF
giving up its policy of peaceful
coexistence and relaxation OF
tension.
mo world war is needed for
the triumph of socialist ideas
throughout the world" Mr.
Khrushchev said in a speech
at the Third Congress Of the
Romanian Congress Party in
Bucharest.
These ideas will get the
upper hand in the peaceful
competition between the coun-
tries of socialism and capital
ism," he declared. The text OF
the speech was published by
TaSs, the Soviet news agency
Mr.. Khrushchev did not men,
ton Red China, but his remarks
were an obvious reply to
Peiping's sharpshooting at the
Soviet Premier's professeo
policy of seeking better rela-
tions with the capitalist ma
tions. BY contrast, Chinese
propaganda has harped on
Lenin's statement that war be-
tween communism and capital
ism is inevitable.
Notes Time Lapse
Mr.. Khrushchev said Lenin'!
propositions about imperialism
remain in force and are still 8
lodestar for us in our theory
and practice. But it should
not be forgotten that Lenin''
propositions on imperialism
were advanced and developed
tens of years ago, when the
world did not know many
things that are now decisive fol
historical development .
He recalled that the coeXist'
ence policy was linked directl!
to the line laid down by tht
goth Soviet Party Congress o.
1856 that war is not inevitable
in our time"
Those who do not Under
stand this" he said, do no
believe in the power Of crea'
tive abilities of the working
class, underestimate the nigh
of the socialist camp, and d.
not believe in. the great attrac
tivenesS of socialism which ha
clearly demonstrated it's ad
vantages over capitalism"
In a new blast at the Eisen
hover administration, MI
Khrushchev said the Sovie
people hope to see in Americi
"the election of a President ant
the formation of a government
which recognizes and correct
the mistakes committed by tn
present Government"
1 Mr.. KhruShchev conceded
that "it is for the American
people to decide who will be tn,
next President of the UniteC
States. But, he said. "appar.
emily the present leading mer
lin the United States are no
able to build up relations with

different social systems in a
proper way"
The Soviet Premier said the
student demonstrations that
helped overthrow the United
States-backed governments in
Korea and Turkey and those in
Japan opposing the United
States-Japan security treaty
showed that "the American i'm
perialists and their adventurist
policy have so discredited them
selves that they have become
hateful not only to the peoples
of Socialist countries, but also
to the peoples of their allies. "
He described the canceling
of President EiSenhower's trip
to Japan as a public slap in
the face" showing that mil
lions of Japanese are. with
contempt and hatred. coming
out against the United States
occupation"
Discounts Spy Flights
Mr.. Khrushchev shrugged
off the Importance of United
States spy plane flights. They
missed photographing Russia's S
rocket bases, he claimed, dis
covered nothing of Importance
to United States defense, and
failed to uncover powerful
military means" the Soviet
Union has developed. He added
I'VE know that two or three
years ago the (Americans)
photographed the areas Of the
proving grounds where we con-
duct experimental rocket
launchings. 1t was a rocket
weapon testing grounds that
they photographed, and not
strategic rocket bases.
I'VE declare that If other
measures of espionage are used
they too will be paralyzed ano
rebuffed."
A summary Of Mr.. Khrush-
chev's speech was reported by
the Official Soviet Tass news
agency and broadcast by Mos
COW radio saying also:
"The name Of spy pilot
(Francis) Powers, though he
was of course only a small
poisonous bug in the service
of the Pentagon brass, will gC
down in the history of America
as a disgraceful incident, to.
gether with the names of those
who sent him on his bandit
flight"
Declaring that economically
the outlook for capitalist coun.
tries sis none too gay" Mr.
Khrushchev said that within
10 years the Soviet Union woulc
surpass "the richest, most pow.
erful country, the United
States" not only in gross pro.
duction but also in per capita
production.
A new, long-range, 20-year
economic plan is in preparation
for the 22d Soviet Party Con.
gresS in 1861, he announced
and exclaimed:
THE successes of the So.
cialist countries are a multi.
stage rocket. as it we're, which
will unfailingly put all the
peoples of the world into the
lorbit of communism"

Will Appeal to Senate
Yesterday the Commissioners
announced, as expected, that
they will ask the Senate Ap-
preparations Committee to re-
store the 81 million Federal

cism for seeking restoration of
relatively minor amounts, nc
efforts will be made to win

TREATY
Continued From First Page

COntlnueQ FROM tlTSL rage
bate. But leaders said it was
simply a case of Senators being
tired and wanting to go home.
Agreement was reached to
vote after an additional half
hour of debate at today's ses-
sion after the customary open
ing routine transactions.
Senator Dirksen of Illinois,
the Senate Republican leader,
said he thought no more than
8 to 10 votes would be cast
against the treaty.
Senator Fulbright, Democrat
of Arkansas, chairman of the
Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee, said in a separate in
terview that there might be 10
to II opposition votes.
After Senate ratification, only
President EisenhoWer's sigma
ture and an exchange of rati-
f1cation documents with Japan
are needed to make the. treaty
effective.
Flight to Hawaii
Plans called for flying the
United States documents to Ha-
waii, where Mr.. Eisenhower is
now resting en- route home from
his Far Eastern tour.
Japan completed the last of
the preliminary formalities
early today as Emperor Hiro-
hito put the imperial seal to
the treaty soon after Prime
Minister NobuSuke Kishi's cab
met had given it final approval.
The 10-year treaty replaces
one signed with Japan in 1851.
1t is designed to give the jap
anese more the status of an
equal ally rather than a con-
quered power. and to restrict
United States rights in that
country accordingly. One years
notice after the 10-year period
is required to make changes in
the treaty's terms.
Pledges Defense
The United States agrees for
the first time in writing to
come to Japan's defense in case
of attack. and relinquishes a
former right to crush internal
disorder in Japan. 1t also
agrees to consult ahead of time
with the japanese government
before making any changes in
its armed forces, weapons or
bases there and before deploy-
ing Japan based American
forces anywhere in Asia.
It retains for the life of the
treaty the right to maintain
military bases in Japan, but
gives up its veto power over
letting a third nation have
bases in Japan.
Despite the treaty's many
favorable aspects for Japan,
opposition of both leftists and
neutralistS there has brought
on riotous demonstrations
against continued use of United
States military bases there. The
riots led to cancellation of Mr..
EiSenhower's visit to Japan.
Herter Testifies
The pact was called up for
action in the Senate yesterday
afternoon shortly after Sec
retary of State Herter testified
that nothing that had hap
pened had changed the desir-
ability of prompt ratification.
Senator Fulbright, in urging
approval of the treaty, said he
respected the fear of we'll
meaning japanese that it could
involve Japan in a war that
might otherwise be avoided.
But he said that war is as
abhorrent to the United States
as it is to Japan.
Senator Russell Long. Demo-
crat of Louisiana, and some
other Southern Democratic
Senators raised objections that
the treaty gives Japan a veto
power over the use of United
States troops based in Japan
because of the requirement for
prior consultation on their use.

Ritz Denies Personal
AHront' to Ketchom
BY ROBERTA HORNIG
Star stan Writer

Assistant Corporation Coun-
sci Michael Ritz. who resigned
his post as Juvenile Courts
chief prosecutor, yesterday ex-
pressed regret at what he
termed undue emphasis" on
his criticism of the courts
procedures. .--.
In letter of resignation to
Corporation Counsel Chester
Gray, Mr.. Ritz said he had not
intended his criticism to be
construed as a personal af-
front" to Judge Orm W. Ketch-
am.
Mr.. Ritz resigned under pres
sure. yesterday after getting a
top-level reprimand for stating
publicly that "an incredible
mess" exists at the court.
He was called on the carpet
by Mr.. Gray following his crit
ical talk before the Metropol-
itan Washington Board of
Trades Public Protection Com
mittee on Wednesday.
Mr.. Gray promptly accepted
the resignation and hinted that
he had planned to fire Mr..
Ritz.
Earlier, Mr.. Ritz had apollo
gized to Judge Ketcham for his
pointed statements.
Effectiveness Ended"
In his letter. the former chief
prosecutor pointed out that he
had worked "amicably" with
Judge Ketcham during his two
years at work in Juvenile Court.
He said he was resignlng
because Of the embarrassing
position" in which he had
placed Mr.. Gray and the Dis
trict Commissioners and be-
cause obviously my effective
ness in this Office is ended"
But he continued, with it is
ended a period of Illustration
which apparently revealed it
self in my talk before the
Board of Trade"
Mr.. Ritz said he continues to
disagree with Judge Ketcham
that non-support cases are the
least important Of all matters
within the courts jurisdiction.
He said. too. it is unfortunate
that in the furor over his re-
marks construed to be a per
sonal affront," the principal
import of his speech was lost.
Il will be gratified," Mr.. Ritz

lished public works programs
than to beginning new ones.
DiseOuraging Loss
The CongreSSmen who keep
talking about depressed area
aid are the same ones who let
the interstate highway fund
fall" he said. He added: The
$45 million in Federal highway
money West Virginia lost this
year would have meant more
to our area than all the de-
pressed area bills proposed.
Lack Of good roads was one
Of the major problems of the
130, ,000-square-mile region cited
by the Maryland consulting
firm.
Gov. Tawes said that Mary
land has lost ''in the neigh
borhood of $50 million" as a
result of the highway fund cut
back, at the same time people
in Western Maryland are plead
ing for more roads.
While agreeing to join in a
cooperative effort ito focus
national attention on our prob
lems," Gov. Underwood said
the States should not depend
on the Federal Government to
solve all their problems. We've
got to do something ourselves.
Each State is affected differ
emily and the spark must be
generated in 1.-The individual
State" he said.
4 Burdens on Children
| In opening the session, Gov.
Tawes said that "it is shame
full and intolerable that in 1860
there should be children in the
United States suffering from
malnutrition" and areas where
family incomes are so low that
children can't go to school be-
cause of lack Of clothes and
Shoes"
Gov. Combs said the eastern
one-fourth of Kentucky has "an
acute unemployment problem. 4"
He said he is hopeful" that
the States can work out a
helpful common program"
Among the factors which
have created so much unem-
ployment in the mountainous
areas are rapid mechanization
of coal mining, a dropoff of
railroading in some areas and
a decline in agricultural en-
ployment.

A GEORGIA PEACH
Russian Dancer Skips
Any Political Steps

Omar sat quietly slipping a
coke and smiling while Rusu-
dan did all the talking. She
explained that she had learned
to speak English in school and
college. Omar was supposed to
learn, too, Rusudan said, 'but
the boys are lazy about such
things"
Top of Troupe
That's all right in Omar's
case because he's the pride of
the troupe and can leap higher
and twirl faster than any of
the others. Omar has hicks on
his hands and chin picked up
in one of the more exuberant
Saber dances.
Rusudan was lyrical in her
praise of the American people;
our hot dogs and hamburgers,
American .shoes-her big pas
sion-and California, which
made her homesick.
But she's apt to take home
a jaded view of the American
male. Not once since she ar
rived in the United States last
March has an American man
whistled at her or asked her
for a date-an obvious over
sight.
And the stage door johnnies
she's met seem only interested
in her autograph. she said.

13c Tax Rise
Proposed for
Rockville

A 13-cent tax rate increase
was proposed yesterday in the
$2.7 million budget submitted
to Rockville's Mayor and
Council by City Manager Wal
ter A. Scheiber.
Rockville's rapid growth - a
population leap from 1000 in
1850 to $4,000 this year-and
the consequent demand for
new and expanded services"
were listed as major factors
underlying the proposed tax
hike.
The city manager declared
that the average family in
Rockville lives in a home val
ued at $4,000. If the tax in
crease is adopted, he said, this
average family's tax bill for
1960-6l will be increased by
$l0.37.
Predicted that Rockville's
population will reach the 10000
mark in 20 years. Mr.. Sheiber
declared that further delay in
the preparation of plans for a
new city hall would be short
sighted and unwise."
The manager recommended
that $4,000 be set aside for
city hall planning.
Mr.. Scheiber noted that "the
great majority of Rockville res
idents have never known the
experience of an increase in
their city taxes" The city's tax
rate declined steadily during
the past six years from a 1854
rate Of 80 cents per $100 of
assessed valuation to the cur
rent 72-cent figure.
