ST.

PAUL (AP) American author Mark Twain is partially responsible for a gathering of what is believed to be the largest group of Soviet civilians ever to visit the United States in an unofficial role. The group of 46 Soviet citizens and 127 Americans will take a week-long cruise down the Mississippi River beginning Saturday as part of a "Peace Cruise" organized by a Connecticut-based group. The group, Promoting Enduring Peace, has sponsored eight peace cruises down the Soviet Union's Volga River. The Mississippi was chosen as the first American site for a "Peace Cruise" because it's similar to the Volga in terrain and historical significance and winds through America's heartland, said local coordinator Louise Pardee. ANOTHER, more telling, reason for the chosen site is that the river was prominent in Twain's writings.

Twain is popular in the Soviet Union, Pardee said. Twain's work will be discussed on the trip and the group will visit his former borne in Hannibal, and the river caves he described in his work. The group will also discuss peace issues and hear speakers from both the United States and the Soviet Union, Pardee said. "We keep getting images of the Soviets as terrible people," Pardee If your tap water came with an iiredient list, you just might your Culligan'oealer. much more like us than different.

Spending a week in close quarters with people from another country is a great way to break down barriers and promote understanding, she said. "When you're together on a ship, you get to know people. You see them sleepy in the morning," Pardee said. "It's like being with your own family. You see each other's humanity.

That's the important thing for us to learn that we're all part of the human family and we have to share this fragile planet." THE SOVIETS, who include teachers, journalists, politicians and factory workers, arrived in Minneapolis on Thursday and are scheduled to spend two days in the Twin Cities, visiting St. Paul's Omnitheater, the Fanner's Market, a concert at the College of St. Catherine and the James J. Hill mansion. The group was to be honored today at a reception at St.

Paul's Landmark Center and a send-off ceremony will be held at 5 p.m. Saturday at Lambert's Landing on Shepard's Road. The cruise will make daily stops in other Midwestern cities before arriving in St. Louis Aug. 2.

From there, about half of the Soviets will return home via Washington, D.C. and half will continue their trips with visits to New York City or Madison, Pardee said. if you're trying to witch out lor your family 1 health, you probably check the ingredient t7 bsta on Ion of products these yfl A) am 100 oao you uwi 1 pa one with your rep water.

"The level of new orders received and changes in delivery lead time are two significant indicators of future activity," Kemp said. "Both dropped dramatically in the second quarter." Kemp said less than half the respondents to the survey now see a better national economy and business climate. Kemp said that was lower than the first quarter of 1966.

"Our level of expectation for the rest of 1966 also dropped," he said. "That is bad news." The number of Iowa firms seeking personnel to expand operations slipped to 26 percent from 33 percent in the first quarter, he said. A Week for 4 Weeks economy, reported improving early this year, has again slowed, a Drake University economist reported Thursday. "Iowa and most of Mid-America now reflect the new note of economic uncertainty relected in the national news," Dr. Robert Kemp said.

"The data for Iowa on all nine economic indicators are all still positive. But we are at a turning point." After recovering sharply in the first quarter of 1986, the Iowa economy slowed down in the second quarter, Kemp said. Kemp's findings come from a survey of purchasing managers in Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma. Kemp said new orders for manu 207 Rainbow Wittrloo coordinate the project.
