policy, Kennedy said, "it takes two sides to make a lasting peace, but only one to make he first step." Sen. George S. McGovem was the first mem- ber of the Senate to back Ted's proposal. He said it could shape "an open-door policy" towards Red China. Kennedy's proposal is "worth studying," Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield said, adding "We cannot ignore China.

It's there regardless of our per-sonal feelings about it. The sooner we face up to the fact i that it is we will be better off." In a mojor foreign, policy, speech on the Senate floor, the junior senator from Massachusetts called for the creation of a Presidential commission of distinguished Americans to make public recommendations for "new directions" in U.S. China policy. "No nation can stand still," Kennedy said. "The forces of change are at work in China just as they are in every country.

He said policy changes by the U.S. "might accelerate this evolution of China toward a posture that would benefit world peace."

The first phases of the four-stage plan are targeted for completion by 1969 at a cost estimate of $299 million.

These first two phases include projects that have already received approval of the Advisory Board or are otherwise adopted by the line's directors. Also included are projects which have grown out of inter-agency plans and on which the M.B.T.A. is now ready to take action, said the report. The final two stages include those segments of the projects that are consistent with current regionl planning but for which aditional analysis as well as funds are neded. The immediate plans call for construction of 30 miles of new rapid transit service, express buses and continued use of railroad commuter trains serving outlying areas of the district and beyond.

Also scheduled is purchase of new rapid transit trains, and a large fleet of new buses. Highlights of the development plan call for: Construction of a new rapid transit line to the South Shore over the Old Colony tracks from a point between the present Andrew and Columbia stations to North Braintree, to be in operation by late next year. This line will be further extended to Middle st. and Rte. 3 in Weymouth by mid-1968, according to the program.

The program also calls for purchase by the Authority of the right-of-way tracks from South Braintree along Rte. 3 to near Derby South Hingham, and also the tracks from South Braintree to Washington Braintree Highlands, and to Holbrook for future branch line operations.
