'LOUD ASSURANCES' OF PEACE EXPECTED OF U.S. LD070047 Moscow Television Service in Russian 1800 GMT 6 Mar 84 [From the Vremya newscast; video talk by Genrikh Borovik, secretary of the USSR Union of writers] [Excerpts] Greetings, comrades. Much is now being said in the world about how imporA?: tant the stability and continuity of our peace policy is for all mankind. The world knows only too well the value of words about love for peace that are not con- firmed by deeds. For example, the experience of observing preelection battles in the United States allows one to write the scenario today of almost all the propaganda steps which will be undertaken this year by an administration wishing to remain in power. Mere will be new, loud assurances of its'love of peace, appeals for dialogue, and normalization -- all of this, naturally, with professionally selected smiles, in a courageous voice with a slight catch in it, well-taught by special teachers. There will e a lot of this in the United States this year. [Passage indistinct] A few days ago, you saw on the Vremya program the candidates for the U.S. Presidency ! nmaring their devotion to peace being showered with gay multicolored balloons; and then the U.S. battleship, roaring out from its guns huge multicolored fiery clouds and the [ flowing of the monohued blood of Lebanese children.

Yesterday saw the 38th anniversary of Churchill's speech, of sorry fame, in the U.S. town of Fulton. Thirty-eight years is not a round figure for a date, but the U.S. propaganda services marked it -- perhaps not very noisily but sufficiently. That speech expressed the idea of cold war, the idea of speculating on fear, on hatred for communist dissent. Other speeches have been heard in the United States -- for example, Roosevelt's words that the United States has nothing to fear but fear itself, or the prophetic words of Eisenhower of how dangerous it was to make the interests of U.S. policy conform with the interests of its military-industrial complex. But in the present administration, continuity in policy proceeds from Churchill's speech and not from Roosevelt's policy. The United States has every opportunity to confirm its peace-loving declarations with deeds. Then, a change could take place in Soviet-U.S. relations and in the whole international situation. We would like such a change, Konstantin Ustinovich Chernenko said in his speech. It is up to Washington.
