Experts Criiltal Ol New Russian'Passenger Plane

lly WES COOK

Vi-1W YORK AP! - Showing nil. Russia this month flew I let passenger liner to the United SIHLCS.

Under the propaganda veneer, iiitics discovered I plane that i.iii carry fewer passengers I sh iricr distance at slower speeds than Western lets in service or in prixiiicti .

"The U-'04 is basically I mili- liiry bomber with passenger wills and windows in the fuse- Izisc." said A. W. Abels. an of- iii-ial oi Convair.

"It is operated by an airline that is as much I part of the gov- rrnment of Russia as the Soviet Air Force. The factor-' that I t'll'lllHTI airline operated as I ii-ii-sustaining business - must cnnsider in choosing I transport do not apply in Russia." OTHERS SUPERIOR I

Aviation experts who have in- siiccted the let liners of Russia. llritaln. rrascp and the United sisies say the Comet. Caravells and Boeing's M are far superior in the Soviet TU-lot.

Although the TU-l0I's engines are rated among the world's most powerful. the experts say they require so much fuel that they could not be operated at I preill.

Other obiectlonable features in- clude the location of the engines tin the wing roots near the lunc- Iu of the win; and fuselage). Ill rior workmanship on ilif outer aliln. lack of interior appointments for saiew and com- lnin. and use of drag parachutes

The Russians with their con-

verted millta'ry plane were neither first nor did they bring the most to the commercial let Iicld. The first commercial let air plane was Britain's de Havilland Comet which was put in service in 1952 by the British Overseas Airways Corporation.

But. after two tragic crashes into the Mediterranean. the Comet was pulled out oi ser- vice and returned to the druftlng board. A I designed Comet ll en- tered regular service Sept. 10.

France is competing with its twin - engine Caravelle. Many American ainnen describe the Caravelle as one oi the best alr- crait flying today. It is expected

to begin scheduled nights late W"

this year.

U.A. airlines expect their first passenger Jets late next year or early in 1959:

The TU-lot shows up badly next to Western let pmto types In speed. its cruising rate is only in miles an hour. T5 miles an hour slower than the Convair-all and slowest except for the smaller Caravelle.

The TU-lot carries only 70 pan- sengers and has I range of LNG tniies..

Syria is not I satellite. The re- Commualst. The sy- ia essentially Inti- Oosnmuuist. but its present rul- seieed the opportunity to bols- themselves by accepting Rus-

Until two weeks ago the Run- sians-could have good. reason to hope they were on the way to- ward win the cold war in the Arab world. But I hitch seems to he appearing-slight now but with troublesome pi , is for Moscow.

The Russians apparently had no intention of making Syria I satellite for the present. For them physical domination of Sy- ria would be neither necessary nor desirable for I long time.

See Hitch Appearing In Soviet Plans For Arabs

From the vantage point of Damascus it becomes fairly ob- vious Moscow will not get far selling Communism to the stub- born Syrians. Instead. the Run- sians are selling them the Soviet Union as I country which can help them heal the wounds their pride has suffered for many years. MID-EAST LEVER

What do the Russians want of Syria? Apparently they want her to serve as I lever to pry the Middle East loose from all West- ern influencc and panicularly from any form of military c!i-op- eration with the West. The first Moscow consideration is Soviet security. The Soviet Union's pol- itical ambitions for Asia and the Middle East must be aseconiary.

Beside military security. the goals are economic. By mailing Syria I showcase of what econ- omic cooperstton with the Soviet

Union might accomplish, the Russians , hope to in- fluence " iy underdeveloped

countries. C.

Syrian leaders insist they see no hidden strings. though they seem also to sense the Russians are getting much of value here. But the motivation for economic and military strength wus fear of Israel. The swerve eastward came oi desperation.
