Western observers in Bucharest considered Khrushchev's remarks on Berlin and Germany to be the most important of his speech. He first accused the West of threatening war over Berlin and continued: "We see no reason for going to war. Those who talk about war should better realize that pushing the button would in the end turn against them." Khrushchev said that if East and West reach no agreement on Germany, the Soviet Union will sign a separate peace treaty. "We are not setting any deadlines for signing the treaty with the (east) German Democratic Republic," he added. "If the time is right, however, we shall solve the problem." Khrushchev appealed to the United States for a German settlement.

"We want an understanding with the Americans over the German question and to settle the West Berlin problem in order to end the occupation regime in this city and turn it into a free town," he said.

Rails (Continued from Page One) number of persons involved.

Wayne Johnston, president of the Illinois Central Railroad, saidj his line would cut 650 persons! from its payroll. The St. Louis and San Francisco (Frisco) Railway said it planned a work reduction equal to the increased wage cost resulting from the 10.2 cents an hour average pay boost given 430,000 non-operating employes in a contract settlement this month which was recommended by a presidential emergency board. A spokesman for the Great Northern Railway said it has not yet decided upon layoffs but "we won't say there won't be" any. The Santa Fe Railroad said it has not yet cut back its payroll but higher costs and cargo slumps may force "adjustments." The North Western Railway said a study was being made to determine how it will meet the higher wage costs.

The Burlington route and the Erie Lackawanna said similar studies were underway. Spokesmen for the Pennsylvania and New York Central railroads said they were awaiting instructions. J.E. Wolfe, chief of the railroads' negotiating team in the bargaining with unions representing 450,000 non oerating employes, had warned after the agreement in the 10.2 cents an hour pay hikes was announced that the pact was likely to bring layoffs. Goldberg (Continued from Page One) vve involved in the dispute, but the union said it would strike only TWA because of the economic cf-j fects that a walkout against all: three carriers would have.

The dispute grows out of the airlines proposal to reduce jet crews' from four to three nun, with the third member combining the duties and skills of pilot and engineer. I The engineers union is seeking! contract provisions it considers necessary to protect its numbers; from bring swallowed up by the, pilot! associatioa Government. The farmer, it was said, will not have a choice but must accept the directives of the Secretary of Agriculture. Scranton said that he and other Republicans in the House, including Rep. James E.

Van Zandt, nominee for U. S. Senator, will vote against it. Attacks Dilworth At another point in his speech, the gubernatorial candidate referred to conditions in Philadelphia under Dilworth's administration as mayor as corrupt, fraud-ulant and scandalous. "He was elected as a 'reform mayor of Philadelphia," Scranton said, "but when his administration was rocked with scandals, he covered up the corruption and the graft.

Why? To get the Democratic nomination for Governor." Continuing his attack on his Democratic opponent, Scranton declared: "Take a look at Boss Green in Philadelphia. Only a few months ago he said clearly and rightly that my opponent couldn't win the governorship. He was right; he won't win the governorship. Today Green is pledging full support to the ex-reformer." Martin Criticizes JFK. Former U.

S. Senator Edward Martin of Washington, expressed contempt for President Kennedy's theories concerning the national budget. His remarks referred to the President's speech at Yale University on the Administration's approach in dealing with business. Business, Kennedy charged, has based its recent "wave of non confidence in the Federal Government on myth, ancient cliches, illusion left over from the middle thirties." Senator Martin assailed the Administration and expressed the opinion that the statements re vealed a lack of the elementary principles of business methods. Other speakers included: Baron McCune, a Washington attorney; George I.

Bloom, chairman of the State Republican Committee, who was master of ceremonies; Raymond P. Shafer, nominee for Lieutenant Governor, and the committee chairmen of the four counties Walter Schel- lor of Fayette); John B. Carter of Greene: Edward Protin of Washington, and Charles of Westmoreland. Van Zandt and Mrs. Audrey R.

Kelly, nominee for Secretary of Internal Affairs, were unable to attend. PHILADELPHIA (LTD -Rich- ardsoit Dilworth, Democratic gu bernatorial nominees, charged Monday that his opponent has dis avowed the liberal wing of the Republican Party and gone "hat in hand' to the Old Guard. He claimed that Republican Wiliam W. Scranton once told party liberals ho would get rid of the Old Guard but now has "cot- ten in bed" with the same group "that has dominated the Repub lican Party hr the hA 23 years." Dilworth, who scheduled to leave on a VuuiUuU today, said Scranton was "throwing up a smoke screen' with charges that the former i'lnhdclphia inavor has made "deals' here and in Pittsburgh. er, John S.
