TRAVEL OFFER

The moon junket may be pro- ersged ng an attraelive weekend travel offer. The Soviet scien- that hope to get the time en route down to 24 hours each way,

The date when the schedules go into effect Is a bit indefinite ns yet, but It should be in the "not too distant" future nad certainly before the close of the 20th Century."

The main problem in be over- come, the Embassy indicated in a statement by scientist Vindimir Dobronavov, is the development; of space suits to preserve the lives of the travellers.

Since travellers will be in o "weightles" condition during

the trip through spáce, it is necessary to devic clothing which will compensate for this factor and permit normal func-i ting of blood circulation and brain processes,

NOT INSUPERABLE The difficulty is not regarded by the Russian experts as superable. "Most scientists be- love that in this weightless condition, the human body can be adjusted to a normal life." The relensly said.

A Social-Democrat, an anarchist and a modest Jewish; youngster named Plala, who had not much schooling. "They decided to elect a leader, to distribute tobmuco and

other supplics. The nuarchist, a husky fellow, was hostile to the elections. But to show that he was

respectful of order and law, ho suggested that Little? Pinin be elected. This was dono. Everything went fine until the day they decided to attempt to escape and, to do this, dug a tunnel," Khrushchev continued, "Knowing that the first person to

pass through the tunnel would be exposed to the

rifle fire of the guards, they asked the anarchist, who

stood up and enid: Friends, you elected me your leader in a democratic manner, I shall go first." Khrushchev said, "Do you know the moral of this story? No matter how modest a man be at his beginnings, he always reaches the heights to which he Was destined." Then after a slight pause, Khrushchev added, "I am

According to the same sources, Western diplomats pre- aunt at the reception considered the anarchist, "the "husky fellow" wna Zhukov.

They interpreted the election scene ns referring to the decisive meeting of the Central Committee last June at which Zhukov supported Khrushchey in ousting the "anti-party" group hoaded by former Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov,

Finally, the diplomats believed that the "tunnel" repre- Rented the problem of the Middle East, which frightened Zhukov while Khrushchev was determined to go to the end.-France-Presse.
