8”' ? in Georgia
Then... With Florida
only a recent
acquisition from
Spain, Georgia might
have appropriately
►een called “the
Jony” in 1776. Early
hat oranges might be a
nodity, and in 1770 the
Colony exported more than 3,000 gallons of
orange juice. From these early cultivations,
Georgia’s orange juice industry continued for
more than a century.
Now... Low winter temperatures along the
coast finally spelled doom for Georgia’s oranges,
and the groves were moved South. Georgians
today still enjoy oranges, but now the citrus
fruit is shipped into the state from Florida,
Texas and Southern California. Some South
Georgians maintain orange trees for home
consumption, but orange groves for commercial
production can no longer be found in the state.

No straight answer
CLEVELAND (UPI) - U.S.
District Court Judge Frank J.
Battisti was unable to get an
unequivacal answer from state
School Superintendent Martin
Essex Thursday on whether he
would accept massive busing to
desegregate the Cleveland
school system.
Essex was the final witness
in the testimony phase of the
NAA C P desegregation suit
trial. Battisti ended the session
by recessing the trial until

sides.
The judge said final oral
arguments will be heard March

Battisti repeatedly asked
Essex if he could agree to
massive reassignment of pupils
if the Cleveland system’s
special programs failed to
substantially reduce segrega
tion.
The superintendent answered
that he believes in the
“community school” concept.
The same defense was used
earlier by Cleveland Schools
Superintendent Dr. Paul Briggs
and other school board witnes
ses, who testified that schools
were built to serve neighbor
hoods regardless of their racial
makeup:
Essex said desegregation in
the Cleveland system has
progressed at a surprisingly
fast and peaceful rate.

Common market
The twain show no
signs of meeting
BRUSSELS, Belgium (UPI)
— Detente or no detente, the
European Common Market and
its Communist counterpart,
Comecon, show no sign of
getting together.
Both say they want to do
business. But both actually may
prefer the arms-length status
quo.
The first contact between the
two took place in Moscow
exactly one year ago. That
meeting was described here as
a “shambles” and, although the
Common Market has invited
Comecon to try again, there
has been no reply.
“It’s a dead matter for the
moment,” a Common Market
official said. “They’ve hinted
they haven’t forgotten us, but
they are unhappy with us.
“We’ve lived with this for 15
years,” he said. “If we drew up
a list of our major problems, no
one would put relations with
Eastern Europe on it.”
The Common Market is an
economic bloc of nine West
European nations. Comecon
links Russia, six East European
nations, Cuba and Mongolia,
also in an economic bloc, and is
sometimes called the “Commu
nist Common Market.”
But there are basic differen
ces. The most important is that
the Common Market handles
for its members all trade
relations with the rest of the
world, while Comecon has no
supranational authority at all in
the trade field.
This means that the Common
Market demands the right to
negotiate its members’ trade
deals with Eastern Europe,
even though Comecon cannot do
the same for its members.
So far, Russia and its allies
have refused to recognize the
Common Market and the West
Europeans have had to deal
with the Communists on a
straight bilateral basis.
Therefore, it was considered
a triumph for the Common
Market when Moscow passed
the word through diplomatic
channels in 1974 that it would
recognize the West European
bloc, if the Common Mar
keteers would do the same for
Comecon.
Commentary
To follow up this hint, a
Common Market delegation led
by Edmund Wellenstein, a-
Dutchman and the bloc’s top
negotiator, went to Moscow last
February for talks with Nikolai
Fadeyev, the Comecon director.
It was hoped that the talks
would lead to an agreement
and a trip to Moscow by
Francois-Xavier Ortoli, the
Common Market president.
Wellenstein came back
empty-handed and told aides
that the Soviets simply were
not prepared.
“They seemed to think I went
there only to discuss what
Madame Ortoli would do during
the day while waiting for the
opera in the evening,” he was
quoted as saying.
The Communists had no
briefs, were not prepared to
answer Wellenstein’s questions
and their translators left out
most of the interesting parts,
according to the Russian
speaker that Wellenstein had
thoughtfully included in his
delegation.
What Wellenstein wanted to
know was just what duties
Comecon could perform for its
members — the details on
which any agreement would
have to be based. But the
Russians treated this “almost
as a state secret,” a source
said, and the talks collapsed.
Since then, the Common
Market’s invitation to Moscow
to try again in Brussels has
remained unanswered. And
there it may sit for a while.
Comecon’s total deficit with
the West doubled in 1975,
reaching sl2 billion, and they
are in no position to expand
trade.
