MOSCOW (a) - With slogans
calling for friendship with the
West, the Soviet Communist Par-
ty assembles today to endorse a
anew program designed to make the
Soviet Union the greatest power
on .earth.'
Premier Nikita Khrushchev will
open the 22nd Congress of the
party With a speech presenting the
program, which represents his
blueprint ,for beating capitalism
by 1980.''
Khrushchev's plan foresees great
strides in industrial and agricul-
tural production, and a better life
for the Russian people, with more
food and clothing and, more free
services..
The session is expected to last
about 10 days and has brought
top-ranking Communists from all.
over the -world to Moscow. .
Premier Chou En-Lai represents
Red China and is the main focus
of diplomatic attention. Khrush-
chev himself met Chou at the air-
port, the only delegate so far he
has turned out to greet.
Many diplomats believe Chou
will try to get his Rlussian allies
to tone down those sections of
the program calling for peaceful
coexistence and for supportof all
independence movements, whether
they are Communist or not.
Only members of the Soviet
Communist Party have a vote,
however, and it is doubtful wheth-
er Chou will influence them.
Delegations from non-Commu-
nist countries are on hand from
Western -Europe, the U n I t e d
States, Cuba and various parts of
4.frica, Asia and Latin America.
Baile Offers
school Aid Bill
$y The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - A new ap-
proach to federal aid to education
designed to- lessen the emotional
impact and clear the way for con-
gressional action next year was
proposed yesterday.
The plan, offered by Rep. Cleve-
land M. Bailey (D-W Va), a sen-
ior member of the House Educa-
tion and Labor Committee, would
grant each state a sum equal to
two per cent of its expenditures
on public education. The funds
would be distributed by the state
as local school authorities decide.
Bailey said .his plan would
eliminate the controversial issues
of local vs. Federal contoiol and
public vs. private school aid.
Bailey would also give poorer
states a bonus payment based on
the percentage , their per capita
income falls below the national
average.

Ballis Labels Congress
Premier's 'Rubberstamp'
By MARK BLUCHER
Theoretically a plenary body of the Communist Party, the 22nd
Congress of the Communist Party will be the rubber stamp for
Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev's policies, Prof. William Ballis of
the political science department said last night.
The Congress-which begins in Moscow today-"represents the
dual program of the Communist block-the extension of Communism
throughout the world along with the policy of peaceful coexistence,"
Prof. Balis said. He claimed, however; that these two programs are
inconsistent in the long run. al--
though they serve the purpose of
the Communists in the short run. atlons Study
