The explanation given was that Mr. Bonavia had indulged in "systematic activities incom patible with the status of a for eign correspondent." Presumably the real reason was his frank re porting of the activities of Sov iet dissidents. f i WICHITA FALLS, Tex. — Air man Michael A.

Editorializing cn the treatment d* its correspondent, The Times comments that "it Is a poor au gury for the European security conference by which the Rus- isons still set so much store." The c.nference, it points out, "is sup posed to pave the way for a somewhat freer exchange of peo ple and ideas, to some reduction of mental as well as of physical barriers." There Is little prospect ot: achieving this, the editorial continues, if the Russians show themselves so sensitive to anv reporting of their country that strays from the commonplace.

Mr. Bonavia’s case again high lights the d fficulties of Western newspaper correspondents work ing in the closed society of a Communist country. Ostensibly there is no censorship on foreign correspondent' dispatches (.'rom Moscow. But there are sen?ative areas of Soviet affairs where a news has to tread very warily. Mr. Bonavia has been ousted ap parently because he pushed too hard in a partioulahly sensative zone. 'His expulsion means the loss of a talented and energetic young journalist to the small corps of Western correspondents ?n the Soviet capital.—Christian Science Monitor. SMALL MIRACLE IN IDAHO It was one of those small hiir- acles that happen when reason and logic crujh expeclalian and hope seems blind. Seven days and nights a', ter the fire and ex plosions that racked the Sun- snine Silver .Mine, entombing 58 men ni.>re than a half-mile be low the rain-soaked northern Idaho hills, Hon Flory and Tom Wilkinson were brought up alive and well from below. Tiieir tale is a simple one - and, fjr that, instructive. Find ing themselves alive and unhurt after the flas]^ fire that, from their own count they knew had killed eight of their comrades, they kept t.icir wits and and re fused to panic. Picking up- tlu* lunch pailjj of their lost co-work ers, the pair made their way back tj the main hoist, confident that rescue would cx>me momen tarily. That expectation stretched on into hours, then days. The foul air, poii^umod by smoke and. car bon monixide, thickontxl. Then came a life-giving draft of fres.i air, forced down a ventilator shaft by rescue teams workiiK: abeve. Then it was a matter of waiting it out, rationing out the small cache of f:od, holding on o hope, refusing to panic. Above, they knew, rescue teams would be working with all the equipment and skill availa.'e. Wives and famiies would be standing vigil, reaching down to them in thought and prayer. And so came rescue.. Two men, alive and well. Their survival nurture.s the possibility of survival for others, replacing pessimism with the awareness that while life continues, hope is never blind but justified by such small miracles. — The Christian ^ Science Monitor. c, ar Dc W( p' CC far Su IT'S Kan Brid IsH Miss ding t M nro' lionore (Irop-in ship b (Ah I Ijight wi arrang' ■caniag ed by p dlehold white A the coi cDth. ^ both tl table V ivy an< ing pin Mists orchid esses a: sterling (Guest 'be with gifts.
