East Allies Reject Proposed Market
LONDON, — (UPI) — Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's plans for a satellite common market have collapsed, because of friction between his East European allies and Moscow, a Western analysis showed today.
The Royal Institute For International Affairs said in its publication "The World Today" that Khrushchev's plan for close economic integration of the satellites was defeated by "a momentous conflict over economic relations which began in mid-1962."
KHRUSHICHEV'S PLAN was to force a "socialist division of labor" on the satellites, creating a single economic unit out of the entire bloc and having each nation produce what it was best equipped to do.

Are You A 3rd-Grade Reader?
A noted publisher in Chicago reports there is a simple technique of rapid reading which should enable you to double your reading speed and yet retain much more. Most people do not realize how much they could increase their pleasure, success and income by reading faster and more accurately.
According to this publisher, anyone, regardless of his present reading skill, can use this simple technique to improve his reading ability to a remarkable degree. Whether reading stories, books, technical matter, it becomes possible to read sentences at a glance and entire pages in seconds with this method.
This would have meant that backward nations like Bulgaria and Romania would have been condemned to continued agricultural production, while the more developed nations like Czechoslovakia and East Germany would have their industry built up even more.
To acquaint the readers of this newspaper with the easy-to-follow rules for developing rapid reading skill, the company has printed full details of its interesting self-training method in a new book, "Adventures in Reading Improvement" mailed free to anyone who requests it. No obligation. Simply send your request to: Reading, 835 Diversey Parkway, Dept. 3249, Chicago 14, Illinois. A postcard will do.
Romania, which had been trying to develop its industry, was the leader of opposition to the plan. The rebellion in Romania and the other satellites shows that there is now "primacy of nationalism over communism" in the area, the Royal Institute said.
THE SATELLITTS could not have carried off their opposition without the aid of Communist China. When China began its ideological dispute with Moscow, Khrushchev needed allies and was not able to coerce his European satellites to the extent he had previously.
Khrushchev apparently had hoped to change the structure of COME-CON, the Council for Mutual Economic Aid, which Moscow established for its satellite economic relations in 1949.
But the Romanians objected to the idea that they should continue to grow the wheat and supply the oil while neighboring nations got assistance for constructing giant steel mills.
The study said the "formal burial" of Khrushchev's plan took place when the heads of the Communist parties met last July.
Nevertheless, some features of the plan are being put into effect, including a power network throughout the bloc, an international pipeline, and a clearing bank for COMECON.

NEW YORK—(UPI)—George Von Elm played in the longest "overtime" matches in the history of both the U.S. Open and U.S. Amateur golf championships—losing a 72-hole play-off for the 1931 Open and losing on the 10th extra hole in an early round of the 1930 Amateur.
Five students, all of them active in campus politics, informed the All Student Council last night of their intentions to run for student body president or vice-president next spring.
Five Candidates to Seek Student Body Positions
They are Jon Alexiou, Shawnee Mission junior; Tom Bornholdt, Topeka senior; Sam Evans, Salina junior; Gregg Turner, Seattle senior; and Charles Whitman, Shawnee Mission senior.
Candidates for the school's two highest student offices must have a semester's experience on the ASC or must serve a semester as apprentice.
Last night was the deadline for students with no council experience to file intentions to run, which is required before their apprenticeships can begin.
Turner and Whitman have both served on the ASC. In submitting his letter of intent, Whitman, general secretary of University Party, said it was for the purpose of obtaining speaking privileges. Turner said afterward that he also filed to obtain speaking privileges.
All but Whitman are members of
Vox Populi party. Alexiou is now Vox Greek vice-president, Bornholdt is Vox president, Evans is chairman of KU Collegiate Young Republicans and Turner former vice-chairman of the ASC. Whitman was UP's candidate for student body president last spring.
BEDFORD, England — (UPI)—A local bus company today rejected an anti-suicide group's advertising posters because they would "depress passengers."
The posters, offered by the "Bedford Samaritans," read: "Despair? if you are in despair and tempted to suicide and don't know where to turn for help, ring Samaritans, Bedford 2200."
