"Nothing To Fight About,' Remarks
Touring Soviet
WASHINGTON, (P) - Soviet Deputy Premier Frol R. Kozlov left today for a sightseeing tour of the United States with the remark that there is "nothing at all for us to fight about."
Kozlov, his diplomatic mission to Washington completed with no easing of the East-West deadlock over Berlin, took off in a chartered commercial airliner on a nonstop flight to Sacramento, Calif.
Starting a 10-day swing through half a dozen cities, he planned to lunch with California's Governor Edmund G. Brown. Then it was on to San Francisco for more sightseeing and meetings with local citizenry.
Even as he was waiting to board the plane at National Airport, Kozlov continued his talks with U. S. officials. His discussions during a 2½-day visit to the capital produced nothing new on the U. S.-Soviet standoff on the German crisis.
Kozlov told Assistant Secretary of State Livingston T. Merchant, who was seeing the Red visitor off, that both the Soviet Union and the United States have great natural resources and made his remark about there being nothing to fight about.
The silver-haired, 50-year-old Kremlin official was all smiles as he formally bade farewell to the people of Washington and started off on what he has jokingly called his "Communist infiltration" of the United States.
