By EARL H. VOSS

Frances man of destiny
President Charles de Gaulle,
offered the world hope yester-
day that the Soviet leadership
is slowly mellowing and that
crucial issues dividing East
and West can eventually be
solved.
In news conference exud-
ing calm confidence, and long
range optimism, President de

the Soviet Union is letting up
on the Berlin issue. But he
cautioned against expecting
too much too soon.

This statement came in re,
sponse to a question about hss
appraisal of Soviet Premier
Khrushchev's intentions re-
garding the Berlin issue at the
Paris summit conference which
opens May 16.
Frank Appraised
Gen. de Gaulle preceded his
unusually frank appraisal,
based on long personal talks
with Premier Khrushchev in
Paris only a few weeks ago.
with this disclaimer, however:
Il am not Mr.. Khrushchev and
therefore I cannot foresee nor

1t would permanently pre-
vent discharge of waste into
the Potomac above the Dis
trict's water intake. 1t would
also provide communities not
directly affected by the airport
with new power to alleviate
mounting sewage difficulties.
Participating members, which
might include the District and
Maryland Jurisdictions as well
as those in Northern Virginia,
would have to agree upon and
plan the system which the au-
thority would build.
Funds would be obtained
through revenue bonds which
the Federal Government would
guarantee.
Other Plans Considered
The administration is be-
lieved to have considered re-
Gently two other plans for an
urgently needed disposal sys-
tenn to accommodate the huge
jet field and the thousands of
surrounding residents it will
attract.
One would have the Corps
of Engineers build and operate
a $22 million system serving
Chantilly and both shores of
the Potomac Is to 80 miles up
river from Chain Bridge.
Costs would be recovered
gradually through fees charged
to users, and the entire system
eventually might be turned
over to the jurisdictions served.
This proposal has encount-
cred objections because fiscal
experts fear that rates would
have to be too high to make it
feasible. There also has been
reluctance Ito put the Federal
Government in the sewage buSi-
ness"
A third plan recommends
long-term, interest-free Gov
ernment loans to Northern
Virginia Jurisdictions which
would construct a sewage sys-
tenn.
Municipalities Disagree
Opposition to this proposal
arose repeatedly because heavy
Federal expenditures would be
required. Fairfax and Loudoun
Counties have failed to agree
upon the type of system they
want, and participation might
be limited to Northern Vir-
ginia.
The approach embodying the
regional authority appears to
be the one most consistent with
past administration policy and,
at the moment. the one most
likely to be recommended to
Congress.
Its proponents have argued
that Government backing of
the authority's revenue bonds
would assure availability of
necessary funds, but would not
involve large Federal outlays.
Dumping Inevitable
They stress that the author
ity would permit jurisdictions
both the freedom and means
permanently to control pollu-
tion menacing the areas water
