Take Trip In Summer Via Books By W. G. ROGERS Associated Press Arts Editor i NEW YORK Your ticket to 'travel is the fiction shelf in your library. Of all reasons for reading novels, perhaps the best, with summertime and vacationtimc so near, is that they take you around the to the great monuments, the exciting capital cities, the exotic countries, up byways and alleys, nto homes you might never enter yourselves.

Soviet Threats Cause For Defense In S. WASHINGTON un The United States told Russia today Soviet threats and subversion are the cause for joint defensive measures in the Middle East. By way of contrast this government said in a formal note that opposition to the use of force in settling international disputes has long been a "cardinal element" of U. S. policy and is embodied in the United Nations charter.

On that basis the United States rejected as "unnecessary" a Kremlin call for a Big Four dec laration condemning the use of force in settling Middle East dis putes. The State Department, in making public the note delivered in Moscow Tuesday, said Britain and France are making similar replies to a Soviet proposal made last Student April 19. The U.
