Yesterday, they led to a sub
ject about which neither of us
knows anything, although both
are friends of the character
involved.
This chap who shall be
nameleSS, as a concession to
the laws of libel, has both Of
us baffled as one who may be
carrying the zany economics Of
theater types too far. Here's
the story
Old NamelesS, a Harvard
man, is an unprofessional ad-
wiser to Actor Kennedy on the
housing problem. He thinks
Arthur, known to everyone as
Johnny, ought to live in Man
haitian now that the youngsters
iare away in school.
sand" he explained to
Johnny the other night, "in a
cooperative apartment. A
place, say, like ours. We have
10 rooms cat a famous address
off Park avenue) for which we
pay $3.50 a month. However,
there is every prospect that the
place will become a co-opera-
tive in which case I shall buy
Fhe apartment at, say, $4,000
AFTER that, instead of rent, we
shall have to pay merely the
maintenance, you know taxes,
staff. fuel, lights, and that sort
of tf1ing. That will come to
$500 a month. and I can't think
of a better way to live.
Johnny thinks he can. Or
selse that everything he has ever
learned about supporting a wife
and family has had a flaw in
it somewhere.
ETC: Naturally, a lot OF
,theater topics did weave their
way into and out of the con-
versation.
One of these also was econ
iomic, but saner. This has to
do with a project that may
well be next on Johnny's sched-
ule; something a bit different,
He explained:
"You know Dick Kiley, yeah,
we got together when we both
were here in Time Limit Well,
Dick has broadened out. He
still acts but he also has turned
writer. He has adapted an
English novel, Feast of Luper-
cal.' and we may do it in Lon
don. with Dick co-producing
and acting and with me di-
recting.
why London? 1t couldn't be
more sensible, a matter OF ra-
tional economics. The play will
be one of those set and one
half productions which. in this
country, would cost us 500, 900
maybe more. In England we
can do 1t for $4,000. There is
something so much more logical
sounding about $4,000"

Mr.. Mccormack and other sup
porters were cheered by Senate
approval Of the Treasury bor-
rowing method of financing
long-term development loans.
They conceded, however, that
attacks on this so-called back
door spending" procedure were
stronger and more unified in
the House. They also looked
for hard fights on attempts to
cut the authorized total for
foreign economic and military
assistance this fiscal year and
to limit the requested $S.8 bill
lion five-year planning author
ity to two or three years.
Ready to Resist
The Senate planned to vote
tomorrow on a Republican
proposed requirement that the
administration let congress
Sional committees study in ad-
vance the details Of every pro-
posed loan over $40 million.
Democratic leaders said the ad-
ministration could live with
this. But they were ready to
resist attempts to trim the
money authorizations of the
five-year duration Of the loan
authority.
The bill, however, was over
the hump in the Senate because
of the Unexpectedly big margin
Of Sc to 80 Friday against an
amendment by Senator Harry
F. Byrd, Democrat of Virginia,
to finance the long term loan
fund by annual congressional
appropriations instead oi
Treasury borrowing.
Mr.. Mccormack declared yes
terday that the administra-
tion's proposed long-range fl
nancing of foreign aid was be-
ing misrepresented by many
opponents of the bill that sets
ceilings under which Congress
later this month will pass ep-
preparation bills. OF the $4.a
billion that would be author
lied in the pending bill, about
$1.1 billion would involve
Treasury borrowing.

right into Central South Wet
Nam.
High South Wet Namese Of
ficials say there has been a
sharp upswing Of Communist
activity recently in the thinly
populated central mountain
and highland regions Of South
Wet Nam.
Intelligence reports show
that during July alone the Wet
Cong rebels infiltrated 52S
agents across this border re-
gion, one source said.
Units Are Small
New government reports say
that in Pleiku. Province of the
highlands during an 11-day Pc
riod in late July government
forces killed 297 Wet Cong,
captured 80 others and de-
stroyed number of rebel sup
ply dumps.
These figures indicate gov
eminent success but also the
measure of a growing problem.
So far. informed sources say,
the numbers of South Wet Ma
mese troops operating in Laos
are small. Dozens rather
than hundreds" said one.
Presumably they are highly
trained, mobile ranger units.
More than 5000 of these COM
mando-type troops have been
trained under United States
guidance for hard hitting
thrusts at Wet Cong units
around the country. They
operate at company size level
or smaller.
It would be assumed that
any such operation in Laos
would have the consent of the
government of Prince Boun
Gum in Vientiane. which is
fighting its own battles with
Communist rebels. What might
happen when the Laotian gov
ernment changes is another
question.

SAIGON, South Wet Nam
Aug. IL (AP).-Crack South
Wet Namese troop units are
operating in southern Laos to
cut the flow of Communist sup
plies and guerrilla reinforce
ments moving down from Red
North Wet Nam, highly in
formed sources here say.
There are also strong indi-
cations that smaller United
States trained special units are
even working in Communist
North Wet Nam.
Some observers feel these
could be the beginning steps in
a program to turn the tables
against the Communists who
for almost seven years have
sent a steady flow of guns and
men to feed civil war in South
Wet Nam.
Government officials here
smilingily deny any South Wet
Namese troops operate outside
the nations borders. United
States officials also have de-
mails or no comment.
In Strategic Positions
But highly reliable sources
report that special troops have
taken up strategic positions
and are patrolling along the
variety of routes the Reds
use through southwest Laos
known in Saigon as the "Ho
Chi Mimi" trail.
This pathway Of Subversion
is named for North Wet Ma
mese President Ho Chi Mini.
It begins far to the north and
moves down through the un-
guarded mountains of Laos,
skirting the well-patrolled 18th
parallel border that separates
the Communist North from
pro-Western South Wet Nam.
Along this route, the Reds
