British officials waited eagerly today in the hope an answer to this monumental puzzler will be received when Nikita Khrush- chev replies to a personal letter from Prime Minister Macmillan. Macmillan revealed to 'the House of Commons Tuesday he had written the Russian leader about his concern over the ag- gressive trend in Soviet diplo- macy. "I simply do not understand what your purpose is today," he wrote Khrushchev. Macmillan's letter and his solid defence in the House of the United States over the Amer- ican RB-47 reconnaissance plane shot down over the Barents Sea July 1 won the critical applause of British newspapers from left to right. DISTURBING EVENTS Macmillan cited three disturb- ing developments in his letter ~--the Soviet breakup of the dis- armament conference, the RB-47 incident and Russian charges of "aggression" by the Western power in the troubled Congo. "If the present trend of events in the world continues," Macmil- lan said, "we may all of us one day, either by miscalculation or by mischance, find ourselves canght in a situation from which we cannot escape." British officials advance two possible theories for Khrush- chev's behavior: 1. Khrushchev may believe that U.S. policy is bound to be weak until after the November elections and Russia will follow a policy of maximum tension short of war until the end of the year. Then Khrustchev may re- vert to his earlier professed de- sire for peaceful coexistence. 2 Khrushchev may be influ- enced by some undisclosed events in the Communist world and has thrown over the policy of peaceful coexistence.

The Daily Mail (Conservative) calls the letter '"'one of the most momentous messages of our time."
