By the Associated Press

Stewart L. Udall has struck
back at Republican implica-
tons that he used his power
as Interior Secretary to try to
sway House votes on expansion
Of the House Rules Committee.
Mr.. Udall said yesterday that
one Republican critic, Senator
Francis Case Of South Dakota.
should be ashamed of himself
for unloosing o mish-mash of
innuendoes which represent q
sideswiping attack on my char
acter."
Senator Case told the Senate
earlier in the day that Mr..
Udall had given the impression
that there was a link between
which areas get Federal prof.
ects and how House members
voted last week in the rules
fight.
Senate Republican Leader
DirkSen said MIR. Udall's coun-
selling Of some Western Con-
gressmen was in the nature OF
serving notice on all New From
tiersmen: Check your guns and

the power and resolution Of the
United States to contain the
spread Of communism.
For instance, whereas the Eli
'senhower administration had
been willing TO consider reduce
ing the allied garrison In Berlin
from 1000 to 1000 men. the
new administration believes this
would be mistaken In Europe
as q sign Of weakness.
Word has been passed to the
Kremlin through diplomatic
channels that should Moscow
try to take advantage Of the
new Washington Government
while it Is still getting It's for
eign policy bearings, the United
States win resist more stiffly
and quickly than the previous
administration.
Effect Seen ON Khrushchev
Administration leaders re-
'portedly feel that Mr.. Khru-
shchev understands their blunt
ly stated position and Is act
ing with restraint, One reason.
as seen here, may be his desire
for an early, informal meeting
with Mr.. Kennedy as well as a
later summit session; another
may be serious interest on his
part in doing something to
bring the arms race under con-
troll.
At a minimum, Mr.. Kennedy
and his advisers believe the
Soviet Premier wants to avoid
a major military clash and to
concentrate his main effort on
opening up negotiations on
such matters as the future OF
Berlin and disarmament prob
lens.
The eagerness to present an
image Of resolute opposition to

shown yesterday in the State

Post for Hays
Seen in 0ffing
By the Associated Press

The White House Is expected
to announce soon, perhaps
today, the appointment Of
former Representative Brooks
Hays Of Arkansas as Assistant
Secretary Of State for Con-
greSsional Relations.
Mr.. Hays, now q director Of
the Tennessee Valley Authority,
would succeed william B.
Macomber, jr.
President Kennedy's choice
of Mr.. Hays for the State De-
partment post has been FORE
cast for several weeks.
Congressional sources said
today they understood the APP
pointment was imminent.
Jordan Post Rumsred
Reports also were current
that Mr.. Macomber, a Repub-
lican, is to receive a nominal
ton for Ambassador, possibly
to Jordan.
In Little Rock, Arkansas Gov.
Orval e. Faubus today criti-
cized the proposed appointment
Of Mr.. Hays.
Gov. Faubus said reports that
he had talked with Mr.. Ken
nedy and approved the ap-
pointment were inaccurate.
Labeled 'Weakest Reed"
Il told him (Mr. Kennedy
I wouldn't raise any hell, but
I certainly wouldn't advise the
appointment" Gov. Faubus
told q news conference.
Brooks Hays will be about
as much help to him as any
5-year-old kid you could pick
out Of the State and put in
the same position. In a position
like this you need a strong
man. Brooks Hays bends with
every breeze like the weakest
reed that ever grew"
Gov. Faubus and Mr.. Hays
split in 1857 when Mr.. Hays
tried to effect a compromise
between the governor and
President Eisenhower during
the Little Rock school inte-
grafton crisis. Gov. Faubus
worked behind the scenes to
help defeat Mr.. Hays in the
1858 general election.
