The five-year economic develop- ment plan published this week shows this. It reduced 1970 goals set in the Soviet Communist Party's' 20-year program as road guides toward achieving the mil- lennium of good living by 1980. F o r m e r Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev made big promises when the party program was O ~ O u~ree Position Set " in Kennedy Controversy White House Says No 'Communists Coalition Before Elections WASHINGTON A')-The White House said yesterday the United States favors free elections in Viet Nam-"with all of us abiding by the consequences of these elec- tions, whatever they may be." This statement came in the midst of a controversy with Sen. Robert Kennedy (D-NY), on in- cluding Communists in the South Viet Nam government. Kennedy 'had said in Saigon on Saturday Communists should be given "a share of power and responsibility" in that government. The controversy has now ap- parently been resolved. Bill Moyers, White House press secretary, declared yesterday there is no disagreement between the Johnson administration and Ken- nedy "if Kennedy did not propose a coalition government with Com- munist participation before elec- tions are held." Kennedy News Conference Kennedy, holding a news con- ference at the Capitol shortly af- terward, said he is "not in favor of thrusting the Communists on the people of South Viet Nam." He declared he found no dis- agreement beween what he was saying and what Moyers had said. Kennedy appeared to go beyond 4 the administration's position, how- ever, on this critical Vietnamese peace issue by saying that the question of putting Communists into a Saigon government prior to elections could be decided at a peace conference. "I am not suggesting that the 0 Communists automatically be put in power," Kennedy said, "but if the negotiators -feel it is the best way to proceed in forming an in- terim government, we -houldn't shut the d o o r automatically against them." He repeated the essence cf the * statement which set off the con- troversy Saturday by saying he felt the Communists should have "a share of responsibility and power" in South Viet Nam after peace is made. He said Saturday that was at the heart of hope for a nego- tiated settlement. Government by Elections Yesterday Kennedy,said there is a possibility the Viet Nam war would be settled on some basis which would not provide for elec- tions, although he thought the ideal way to create a permanent government would be to have elections. Should the negotiators decide on elections, he said, he would not favor giving the Communists any' voice in a permanent government unless they demonstrated substan- tial support within the country. Ball, Bundy and Vice President SHubert H. Humphrey, who was then in New Zealand, all attacked, the Kennedy proposal Sunday on the ground that Kennedy was talking about forming a coalition in Saigon to include Communist: Viet Cong representatives. adopted at the last party con- said at the coming party congressI gress in 1961.

No one is even so indiscrete Nothing was said about the here as to mention publicly the old goals.

The party lays down policy1 which the Soviet government fol- lows, so its plan will become the official directive later. The new five-year plan says 400 million square meters of new hous- ing will be built by 1970. But it omits the party program's claim that the Soviet housing shortage1 will be solved by then. It seems doubtful it will be. The program promises a doub- ling of incomes in this decade. The average worker's monthly income at the end of 1960 was $89 so doubling would mean $178. But the new plan promises only $126.67 by 1970. Many production goals given inj the program in 1961 or announced' in 1963 as part of the program have been reduced by the new plan. The following statistics show, in order, 1965 production as reported recently, 1970 production set in the party program, and the plan goals now set for 1970: -Electricity (billion kw. hours): I 507, 900-1000, 840-850. -Oil million metric tons): 243, 390, 345-355. -Coal (million metric tons): 578, 686-700, 665-675. -Steel (million metric tons): 91, 145, 124-129. -Plastics (million metric tons): 0.821, 5.3, 2.1-2-3. -Fe r t ili z e r (million metric tons): 31.3, 77, 62-65.' -Shoes (million pairs): 486, 825, 610-630. -Grain (million metric tons): 120.5, 229, 169.3. -Meat (million metric tons): 9.6, 25, 11.5-12. -Milk (million metric tons): 72.4, 135, 83.3-85.4. The drop in agricultural goals was particularly noticeable. The party program said by 1970, "The Soviet Union will outstrip the United States in output of the key agricultural products per head of population." But agriculture has continually been the weakest point of the Soviet economy. The plan says a source of farm- ers' income "should also be pri- vate auxiliary farming," meaning the private plots that theoretical communism, as enshrined in the party program, likes to ignore. The meat and the milk goals de- pend heavily upon private live- stock. The long range program prom- ised that at the end of this decade the working week, now 41 hours in six days for most nonagricul- tural workers, would be 35 or 36 hours in five or six days. The subject was ignored in the new five-year plan. ffirms Viet Na Desire fors in Elections Soviets Send FIGHTING EXPECTED: Dog Satellite' Indonesian Tension Grows Into Space In Wake of Nasution Oust< Launching May Be SINGAPORE (W)-Fighting may radio said armed conflict could - Sukarno summ Preview for Landing erupt at any time in Jakarta be- begin at any time. and told him he V P wL cause of Indonesian President Su- The radio said the guard had ped from the ca Manned Moon Flight karno's ouster of Gen.

The Soviet Union announced that seven dogs were put into or- bit during the period when it was testing for the first manned space flight, by Yuri Gagarin April 12, 1961. Laika died in space but Belka and Strelka came down after one day. Two other dogs, Pchelka and Muska, burned up when re-enter- ing the earth's atmosphere. Cher- nushka and Zvesdochka came down safely. Space Travel Effects The new flight apparently is intended to test biological reac- tions to longer periods in space, possibly as a preparation for the trip to and from the moon. Such biological testing mightj also be necessary as a control on a moon trip by dogs. The dogs now orbiting the earth would be studied for space travel effects which could then bebcompared with effects to be observed on "moon dogs." This comparison would tell sci- entists more about the effects-: and the dangers-of man's trav- elling to the moon and back than simply orbiting the earth would tell.
