1t Might Have Been

In his speech recently to the cream
Of the Soviet Unions intelligentsia,
Premier KhruShchev told a little tale
which, II true, adds up to one of history's
more fascinating might -beens. The
tale is simply this: Soon after Josef
Stain gasped his last in 1858, two of his
top political heirs-the late Lavrenti
Beria of the secret police, and Georgi
Malenkov, the USSR's first post-Stalin
Premier (now living in Semidisgrace)
proposed that the Kremlin withdraw
from East Germany and let it go It's
own way.
To quote Mr.. Khrushchev: IBERIA,
from the very first after Stalin'S death,
began taking steps which were di-
rected at the undermining of the Soviet
Unions friendly relations with the fra
ternal countries OF the Socialist camp
1.-THE captive satelliteSl. With Malenkov
he, for example, made the provocative
proposal to liquidate East Germany as
Socialist state, to recommend that the
East German Communist Party abandon
the slogan of the struggle for the build
ing Of socialism" However, again In Mr..
KS words this idea fortunately received
a crushing rebuff" from the party's
high command In Moscow.
But what II there had been no such
rebuff What II the East Germans had
been liberated from the Communist yoke
and allowed to reunite with their COM
patriots in free West Germany? Ger
talnly the history of the past decade
would have been profoundly different
from what 1t has been. There would
have been no Berlin problem, and Europe
as whole would have been spared a
vast amount Of tension Indeed, the cold
war In general probably would have long
since been greatly abated, and men and
nations conceivably would now be max
Ing real progress toward decent peace.
Alas for what might have been.

but for which it would have had to give
virtually nothing in return.
And why? If the statistics cited by
the gas company can be believed, the
overwhelming majority Of the property
owners involved had no objection to the
project. Some delay occurred in the past
as result of Prince Georges under
Standable efforts to realize as much tax
revenue as possible. But surely 1t was
not necessary to stall the storage bill
until the end Of the session, and then
to present it in a form which the gas
company was virtually certain to reject.
Perhaps Senator Wheatley, who once
again this year made no secret of his
distaSte for the legislation, has an ex-
planation that will satisfy the many
Prince Georges organizations which have
supported the storage project. In any
event, an explanation is due.

The Washington Gas Light Co. may

Maryland legislation It needs TO proceed
with the long-planned underground gas
storage project in southern Prince

Striking q Fair Balance

pears to have given a high priority to

regulations for tax deductibility of buSi-

In the face Of worried protests that
requirements for deductibility would be
severe enough to put restaurants out
Of business and break up happy mar
riageS, the IRIS has come up with pro-
poSalS that seem, at least at first blush,
to be more lenient than expected.
Some of IRIS Commissioner Caplin'S
explanations and comments in connec-
tion with release of the suggested rules
reflect this tone Of moderation. In the
drafting, he told news conference,
the IRIS called in not only outside tax
lawyers and accountants, but leaders
Of the business community. Additional
study and reaction to the proposals
have been invited during public hear
ingS to be held five or six weeks hence
The final form of the regulations will
not be fixed until the record Of the
public hearings is examined, and a
further transitional period for adjust
ment of business accounting systems
will be allowed. While the basic law
applicable to the new treatment of
expense accounts went into effect last
January /, Mr.. Caplin said that IRIS
agents have been instructed Ito re-
solve reasonable doubts in favor of
taxpayers" where there have been good
faith efforts" during this early period
Of implementing the law.
While still subject to revision, the
Commissioner said he felt the proposed
regulations strike a fair balance be-
tween restricting abuses - curtailing
expense account financing of personal
living costS-and not imposing undue
restrictions on legitimate business ac-
tivity." An important and desirable
end result, he added in his news con-
ference, will be to maintain the general
public'S confidence in the fairness of the
tax system and its administration This
is essential, Of course, and is fully worth
the care taken with the expense account
issue.

Virginia Leads

A number Of years ago, when the
Capital beltway was just a gleam in
highway planners eyes, the State of
Maryland jumped off to an early lead
over Virginia in talking about It's inten-
tionS to build its part of the Washington
circumferential highway. Talking aside,
however, 1t is Virginia which actually is
getting the job done. According to an
announcement from Richmond, con-
tracts have just been let for construction
Of the final 3.2-mile section in Virginia.
This means, the Virginia people say,
that their segment will be open to
traffic-all the way from the Cabin John
Bridge to the Woodrow Wilson Bridge
by next spring.
In all fairness, the two Jobs were
not Of equal proportion. The Maryland
segment OF the highway spreads over
AZ miles, as against only % miles in the
Old Dominion. And Virginia has en-
countered less political controversy. In
the final analysis, however, a willingness
to commit money to firm construction
schedule, rather than other conSidera-
tions, has made the difference. Compile
tion estimates in Maryland over the
years have followed yo-yo course
ranging from the depths of peSSimism
to the heights of optimism. At the
moment, fortunately, they are at
zenith. The officials in charge point out
that work is under way now on 29-mile
section, and that the Maryland segment,
like the Virginia should be finished next
year. We hope so. The beltway is by all
odds the most important road in the
suburbs, just as the inner loop is the
backbone Of the transportation system
in central Washington.

Jerome won in the sense that

Mr.. O'Connor is fine on
such affairs as the murder

the more sensational aspects

He is far less successful

doubly deplorable.
