Mr.. Heller emphasized that

Would Spend More
Answering critics, Mr.. Heller
said the United States should
not shrink from increasing
Government expenditures and
taking other actions to stimu-
late the economy simply be-
cause timing is difficult. These
measures, he contended, are
needed to promote long-term
economic growth, even after
the recession ends.
An economics professor who
headed a Kennedy task force

major task this year Is to turn
the economy around"-to get II

DR.. Paul A. Samuelson OF
Massachusetts Institute OF
Technology said he does not
foresee a return to full produc-

ported.
He predicted q business up

A somewhat encouraging note
came yesterday in an annual
survey by the Commerce De.
partment and the Securities
and Exchange Commission
They reported that businessmen
plan to spend $34.6 billion thi.

While this would be a 3 PEI

in favor Of replacing District
employees for political reasons.
e. He probably will resign
from the District Democratic
Central Committee now that he
is a Commissioner. although
he does not believe he is re-
quired by law to do so.
MY present feeling" Mn
Tobriner said, "is that there is
some inconsistency in being
a. District Commissioner and
being actively affiliated with a
partisan political group"
Commissioner Robert E. Nc
Laughlin, the former board
chairman, said last night he
believes the Districts revenue
program eventually will get
through" Congress, but not
without further rough shedding.
If the fiscal program is to
avoid serious trouble, he said,
Congress and the District gov
eminent must "get nearer to-
gether on money matters soon."
Commissioner Mclaughlin
spoke on radio station WWDC's
District Roundtable program.
Crisis Only DELAYED
Mr.. Mclaughlin said con-
sressional failure to approve
boosts in taxes and spending
and an additional 6 million in
Federal payments only delayed
an inevitable financial crisis.

said, by 1854 the District will

He said the public works
program was the chief victim.
Each year that Congress fails
to provide sufficient funds for

Widens Bill
On Wages

Broader coverage provisions
OF the bill to increase the Fed
eral minimum wage were ap-
proved by the House Education
and Labor Committee today for
most retail and service COM
panies doing business Of more
than 81 million a year.
But a Republican effort to
lower the cutoff to firms doing
$500,000 of business a year or
more failed. Representative
Ayres, Republican Of Ohio, at
tempted to offer such an
amendment but was ruled out
of order by Chairman Powell,
Democrat of New York. Mr..
Powell held that the committee
already had completed action
on that section of the bill.
Mr.. Powell told reporters that
the committee has made such
good progress on the admins
tration's bill, as revised by a
subcommittee last week, that
it expects to complete work on
the measure late tomorrow.
The committee voted 15-11
last week to increase the pres
ent $1-an-hour minimum to
$l.15-an-hour this year and
SIPS next year. President Ken
nedy had recommended a
three-stage rise to SIPS.
Among other provisions ap-
proved by the committee today
were those extending coverage
to enterprises operating street,
suburban and local streetcar
systems and doing at least 81
million business a year. Sea-
men also were included in the
bill but would not be entitled to
overtime pay for periods when
they were not actually wrrking
aboard ships at sea.

Disarmament Moves
Advocated by Kennon

Democrat Of Arkansas, asked
the ambassador about his 1857
views, he pointed out that they
were expressed on the eve of a
NATO meeting at which i'm
portant decisions were reached.
The witness said he has never
felt as comfortable as some of
his friends feel over the pros
pect of having a divided Europe
Indefinitely.
But Mr.. Kennan added that
since 1857 he has been in
structed by my critics" and
has come to realize how the
countries Of Europe view this
question. For that reason, he
said he is happy at this time
to merge his views with those
Of the administration.
Regarding the differences
which exist between Red China
and the Kremlin. Mr.. Kennan
said that the interests Of the
two governments conflict in
some respects but not in others.
He said, however, there is moth
ing "for us to crow over or
get excited about" in these diff
ferenceS
Mr.. Kennan told Senator
Hickenlooper, Republican of
Iowa, that the spirit Of nation
alism is a strong factor both in
Russian and Red China, and
may clash to some extent with
the goal Of international COM
munism. But he said we must
remember there are reasons
why the leading Communist
countries want to preserve an
outward appearance Of solidar-
ity. For than reason he does
not look for any early or dra-
matte break between them.
Mr.. Kennan described the
present relationship between
Russia and Red China as an
alliance rather than the sub
lection Of either country to the
other.

Some progress must be made
in the field of disarmament
before world tension between
East and West can loosen up."
George F. Kennan told Con-
gress today.
Mr.. Kennan, who was Ameri-
can Ambassador to Moscow in
1852, was a witness before the
Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee today on his appoint
ment as Ambassador to Yugo-
slavia. He has been in the dip
lomatic service for more than
26 years.
Other highlights Of his testi-
mony were:
He sees no reason why the
United States should not con-
tinue to consider extending aid
to Yugoslavia as long as the
Tito government maintains its
true independence of Moscow
and there is a prospect for col
laboration.
He cautioned the American
people against becoming too
optimistic over the differences
that exist between Russia and
Red China.
Mr.. Kennan told the COM
nittee the views he expressed
as a private citizen in 1857 on
the doctrine of military dis
engagement between Commu-
mist and NATO forces In Europe
are no longer relevant and he
would not restate them in the
same way today.
While lecturing in England in
1857, Mr.. Kennan suggested a
renewed Western effort to re-
lax the Soviet hold on Eastern
Europe by withdrawing NATO
forces from Germany and try
ing to arrange for the re-uni-
fication of Germany as a
neutral area.

able Of transmitting conversa-
tions from any place in the
house.
Justice Stewart, in finding
that police testimony concern
ing the conversation should
not have been admitted in
evidence, particularly noted the
heating duct.
He cited the dissenting
opinion Of Judge George T.
Washington in the appeals
court in which Judge Wash
ington noted that "once the
spike touched the heating duct
the duct became in effect q
giant microphone, running
through the entire house. -
Earlier Gases Cited
Justice Stewart declared that
"eaveSdropping accomplished
by means Of such a physical in
trusion is beyond the pale OF
even those decisions in which
a closely divided court has held
that eavesdropping accom-
pliShed by other electronic
means did not amount to an in
vasion Of Fourth Amendment
rights"
He cited two earlier cases
where the high court did not
consider constitutional rights
violated. In one case, a detecta-
phone was placed against an
office wall to listen to CONVEX
Sations taking place in the Of
flee next door. In the other
case a Federal agent had a
microphone concealed on his
person and another officer,
stationed outside, had a radio
receiving set.
In both these cases, Justice
Stewart emphasized, 1.-The
court took pains explicitly to
point out that the eavesdrop-
ping had not been accomplished
by means Of an unauthorized
physical encroachment within
a constitutionally protected
area"
Judge HOltzoff Quoted
Before the case went to trial
in District Court, Judge Alex
ander Holtzoff had refused tc
suppress the evidence of the
conversations after hearing de-
fense arguments that the elec-
tronic device violated the Fed
erAl Communications Act.
"Stratagem and artifice ir
the detection and apprenhen.
sion Of criminals" he said, 'is
neither illegal nor unethical.'
The Court Of Appeals here
in a 81 decision, upheld the
conviction. Judge John A
Danaher, who wrote the ma.
jority opinion. turned down de-
tense arguments that such
eavesdropping was forbidden
by a 1854 Supreme Court rul-
ing. In that case, police had
placed microphones in q
couples bedroom.
Judge Danaher also rejected
arguments that the case vio-
lated the ban on use Of wire
evidence in Federal
courts. He pointed out that nc
telephone wire had been tapped
Judge Washington said in
his dissent that the device vio-
lated "our fundamental con-
cept Of ordered liberty" He
added that the lates contri-
buttons Of modern electronics
have "a far greater capacity fol-
public evil than their earlier
counterpart-the wiretap."

But in order to prevent the

withdraw its Matadi garrison.

overwhelming superiority both
in numbers and ornaments,

commended"
He stressed repeatedly that
the United Nations would be
returning to Matadi and that
negotiations are going on to-
ward this end. No time limit
has been set on the negotias
tions but the spokesman pointd
out that if the United Nations
fails to get back by peaceful
means, it is empowered to use
force if necessary.

British Minister of State
David Ormsby Gore also was on

ated his contention that the
Congo situation can be solved
"only by Africans" He said
also that he hoped his discus
sions, including a talk Wednes-
day with President Kennedy in
Washington, will clear the
air."
The new Assembly meetings
have special interest for many
delegations because they are
the first since the Kennedy
administration took office. Ad-
vance indications are. however,
that no drastic policy changes
will be apparent Immediately.
Most of this week will be de-
voted to the Congo problem,
which already has been dis
cusSed in several Security
Council meetings since the new
administration assumed power
Tomorrow's opening meeting
will be limited to Mr.. Nkru-

will consider the work program
and set a target date for ad-
journment.
Present indications are that
neither Soviet Premier Khru-
shchev nor President Kennedy
will come to the U. N. during
the session.
