MOSCOW, Dec. A new
and perhaps decisive showdown
between Russia and China is
building swiftly behind the
scenes.
After last summers violent
eruptions Of mutual recrimina-
ton, the SovietS made con-
certed efforts to downgrade
differences and assumed a
conciliatory posture.
The Kremlin also encouraged
mediation attempts by the
Poles and Romanians.
Responding to Premier Khru-
shchev's urging that both sides
refrain from opening polemics,
the Soviet press suspended
criticism of Peking. But the
verbal cease fire proved a uni
lateral action.
The Chinese Communists
ignored the truce feelers. have
stepped up their attacks, in
many respects, pinpointing
them at Mr.. Khrushchev per-
sonally.
Chinese Take Advantage
At the same time the Chinese
Reds have sought to take adj
vantage of Soviet restraint by
fully exploiting every oppor-
tunity to rally international
support at MoScow'S expense.
This is the main reason why
Moscow's patience is nearing
the breaking point. The first
new storm signal was the re-
cent joint resolution of the

Red Rift Nears New Crisis

ing to the Kremlin that further
temporizing with Peking for
the sake of an elusive unity
may result in further erosion
Of the Russia nposition.
Hence the basic purpose of a
new International Communist
conference, such as the French
and Belgian parties propose,
could only be to drum the Chi
nese Reds and their supporters
out of the international Com
munist movement after clearly
placing the Sino-Soviet differ
ences on record.
Assassination Gave Key
Despite official Soviet reti-
cence to comment there is
strong indication that the third
party mediation efforts and the
Sovie t-initiated direct ap-
proaches to Picking have all
reached an impasSe. The ex-
tent to which the two Com
munist Gohaths have drifted
apart was highlighted by the
contracting reaction to Presi-
dent Kennedy's assassination
shock and grief throughout the
USSR as against the una
Dashed gloating Of the Red
Chinese.
The need to revise the policy
of refraining from open polem-
les with Picking is urged upon
Moscow by Premier Chou En-
lai's impending visit to Cairo.
The main purpose of the trip
to Africa can only be to recruit
support for Peking's line at
Moscow's expense.
In particular. when in black
Africa, Mr.. Chou will doubtless
use the same appeal to anti
white prejudice the Chinese
have employed at various Afro
Asian meetings in attempts to
exclude the Russians. The
Kremlin can i'll afford to let
him get away with this sort of
thing.

,N5w YORK-Sometimes a
deal which doesn't come off
can make more history than
enc which does. Witness the
busted deal over Britain's APP
phcation to join the common
market.
Washington's negotiation
with Moscow, as the result of
which we either will or will not
manage to unload most Of our
grain surplus, could be another
case In point. whether the deal
Is finally made or not, the ne
sotiation looks like a milestone
In the economic history Of the
east-west competition. This win
Be true no matter how large or
sfl1all-or sustained-any even
t,iai grain movement across the
IRON Curtain may be.
The reason is that the grain
negotiations have precipitated
sdirect eoverhment-to-govern-
Inent bargaining conformation
in. three major marketplaces-
the. actual grain markets, the
money market and the marine
freight market. There's no 9TH
er. way to do business with the
RuSsians-if that is what we
mean to do-than on q direct
government to- government ba-
sis. Not even the largest corpo-
rations can bargain as equals
With the soviet, government
when It's an anxious buyer:
and certainly, no private grain
dealers can hope to.
President Kennedy's first
move coward the bargaining
table in the grain negotiations
didn't recognize this fact Of
life. He tried to finesse a di-
rect ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
CONFORMATION. Instead, he
made an attempt to route the
Russian bid or the American
offer-whichever the history
books end UP calling it
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-11-11

but because the banks know
that Russia is too big o risk fol-
them to carry.
No matter how you slice 1t
the problem gets back to
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
relationship. Credit for Moscow
Is an obvious hot potato fol
any administration at any
time, and hotter than usual fol
this one now.
Just because the issue Of Gre
dit terms looms as so tough fol
US. it's surprising that we have
been so quick TO offer conces-
sions on the shipping issue
where the market Is going oul
way. The Russians have shown
themselves to be great respec-
tiers Of the authority Of the
market; and, the world over
the market for, shipping Is or
the rise.
Thus. during the short period
since the Soviets have turned
grain buyers and since the
Russians have forced the Chi.
nese to charter ships on Their
own. the asking price for liber.
ty ships in London has dou.
bled; and the reserve Of dry
cargo tramps not in use has
fallen to Just 2 per cent.
The more grain the SovietS
buy outside the United States
the higher freight rates outside
the United States will rise; and
the less uneconomic the cost oil
United States shipping will be-
come. This Is where we should
sit tight and take advantage OF
the chance to bargain from
strength.

cover the cost Of carrying the
less valuable one.
A second rule. involving
classification" Of freight. ties
rates to eategories Of goods. 1t
is designed to make sure that
different shippers pay the same
rate for the same kind Of goods.
To figure the actual dollars
and-cents rate for a given
classification" ICC relies on
the vslue-of-service rule, critics
say.
: II all freight has to be in q
classification, and Il SUE h
classifications are keyed to yas
he-of-service calculations, the
result Is q floor under all
freight rates.
That Is particularly annoying
to railroads now. since they are
eager TO cut rates as low as
their costs will allow. Their
cos is are generally declining,
because Of new freight-han-
ding techniques and equip
ment.
The railroads, insisting that
they can carry q broad list of
items, Of varying value, for the
same cost. want to charge rates
that pay no attention to COM
modify value.
ICC has said such an "all-
commodity" rate Is lawful only
II it Is higher than the average
rate that would be charged If
the items had moved at "classi-
fication" rates.
And that's the approach
repudiated in the Connecticut
court. Should IcC yield this
week, railroads would be free
from the classification and
ue-of-service floor rates" "
and almost surely would rush In
with new proposals tied to their
lowered costs.
