Strange KremIin Quiet
Hints Big Development

Mr.. KhruShchev may have suf-
fered a setback.
The Western ambassadors
were almost united in a belief
that Mr.. MolotOv's return to
Vienna has been delayed only
because the old Bolshevik
doesn't want to be Shunted off
again to such a minor job as
Soviet representative to the
International Atomic Energy
Agency, the atoms-for-peace
organization headquartered III
Vienna.
Mr.. Molotov held that post
when he and other members
of the so-called antiparty group
were denounced by Mr.. Khru-
shchev at the 22d Soviet Party
Congress last October. Mr..
Molotov returned to Moscow
November II to fight a move to
eXpel MN from the communist
Party.
Western officials believed
then he would not be heard
from again in an official Soviet
capacity, but the Foreign Min
istry announced January 8 that
Mr.. Molotov was returning to
Vienna to take up his post
again.
Mr.. Molotov never showed
up, and the Soviet government
and the party have since re-
fused public comment on his
case.
Bolstering the belief of an
theological struggle was the

Molotov in Wednesdays Com

Special Pool
OF Reservists
Under Study
Men Would Know
They'd Be Called
First in Crisis
BY the Associated Press

The Pentagon may form a
special pool of Reservists and
put the men on advance notice
that they would be the first
to be called up to fill out I'M
derstrength Reserve units in
future cold war crises.
The object would be to pre-
vent repetition of difficulties
in the recent Berlin crisis call
up.
Some Reservists who were
ordered to active duty COM
planned they should have been
exempted because of occupa-
ton or family responsibilities.
Others commended men with
less active service should have
been mustered first.
Budget Needs Outlined
Secretary of Defense McNa-
mara disclosed current Penta-
gon thinking on ReserviSts yes
terday as he appeared before
the Senate Armed Services
Committee to outline the de-
partment's budget for the next
fiscal year. It seeks authority
to obligate $54 billion, includ-
ing $48.3 billion in direct ex-
penditureS.
Mr.. Mcnamara said no final
decisions have been made on
the proposed special ReserviSt
pool or plans to reShape the
Ready Reserve structure.
Preferably, he said, the pool
would consist of men who had
only six months of full time
training before entering the
Reserve.
These persons would be
carefully screened to eliminate
all those not available for i'm
mediate recall for reasons of
occupation, family status, ETC.,
and would be the first to be
called as individual filters for
the priority Reserve units to
be added to the active Army"
the Pentagon chief said.
Gallup Brought Complaints
Of the 1855, 1000 Reservists and
National Guardsmen called up
last fall, 1881 were used to
fill out the ranks of Guard
and Reserve units which en-
tered Federal service below
strength. These filters were
men who were not drilling reg
uarly and were not drawing
drill pay.
Some filters who had two or
three years of active service
complained that men with only
six months of active duty
should have been mustered
first.
To the extent the active
forces are strengthened and
Reserve readiness improved,
Mr.. Mcnamara said, I'VE be-
lieve the number of men in the
Reserve forces can be slightly
reduced"
He proposed a cut of 10000
in the .Army'S Reserve forces
to a total of $4,000.

SANTO DOMINGO, Jan. 20
(AP).-The Dominican Repub-
lies fledgling state council got
down today to the business of
bringing democracy to this
troubled Caribbean nation
which has known virtually
nothing but strongman rule for
more than three decades.
The council faced a mountain
of economic and social problems
left over from the regime of
dictator GeneraliSsimo Rafael
L. Trujillo, who ruled the ma
ton as his private preserve for
nearly 81 years before his assas-
sination last May. But the
council also had promises of
generous United States eco
nomic assistance and the
apparent support of most
Dominicans.
Unfinished business also re-
manned from the brief military
takeover led by ousted strong
man Gen. Pedro Rodriguez
Echavarria. Some political ele-
ments, although considered of
lesser influence, shouted for
Gen. Rodriguez Echavarria and
former President Joaquin Bala-
guer to be tried as traitors.
Coup Restores Council
Mr.. Balaguer headed the
council during its first 16 days
until Gen. Rodriguez Echavar-
ria in a coup Tuesday night
installed a military dominated
junta. A swift counter-coup lee
by Gen. Rodriguez Echavarria s
own officer subordinates Thurs

LEOPOLDVILLE, The Congo.
Jan. 20 (AP) .-Marauding
Congolese troops held respon-
Sible for the massacre of white
missionaries at Kongolo in
North Katanga Province fired
at two United Nations recon-
Nuisance planes today.
The Indian Canberra Jets
were sent up in search of the.
troops who are also believed to-
have overrun a Roman Catholic
mission and girls school az
Sofa, Is miles north of Kon-
COLO. The pilots reported housel
were aflame south of Sofa ard
that buildings on both sides of
the Lualaba River were burned
out.
About 200 CongoleSe troorS
were spotted by the Indian jet
on the road between Sofa and
Kongolo and fired at the planesl
apparently only with rifles.
Neither plane was damaged.
An aerial survey by Ethi-
opian U. N. pilots yesterday
showed houses in Sofa afire,
and the mission compound de-
serted of civilians. However,
the pilots reported seeing two
Congolese soldiers run for tho
cover OF a church and two
trucks, presumably belonging to
the army.
U. N. Sees worst"
A U. N. spokesman said the
survey seems to indicate the
WorSt-that the soldiers at
tackled the mission and are now
in control of the compound"
The mission was stated by
about a dozen Europeans-siX
white priests and five or six
white nuns of the Franciscan
Order-and included teach
ers' training college for about
40 teen-age African girls.
The U. N. spokesman said
today'S reconnaissance was
carried out in unfavorable
weather conditions and obser.
vationS had to be made through
holes in the clouds. The planes
were over the area for more
than an hour.
The mutinouS Congole s d

Der of African civilians al

slaughter of Is italian U. N
alrmen in Kindu last November

active plans are underway to
deal with the increasing danger
OF further atrocities from the
leaderleSS troops, once loyal to

deposed deputy premier. The
U. N. spokesman did not
elaborate.
Mr.. Gizenga was flown in a
U. N. plane to Leopoldville from
Stanleyville where he spent
three months in Self-exile and
unSuccesSfully attempted a re-
bellion last week end.
The U. N. plane was furnished
at the request of the central
government, and the leftist
leader was lodged at U. N. head
quarters as a "guest"-but I'M
der guard.
Mr.. Gizenga probably faces
legal proceedings as a result of
a parliamentary resolution of
censure on charges of insurrec-
ton.
The U. N. said it had no fur
ther word of what might have
befallen the civilian population
around Sofa.
Since the crews saw no
people in the Sofa mission COM
pound we have no way of know
ing what happened to the resi-
dents" U. N. spokesman said.
There are no U. N. troops in
the vicinity but the spokesman
said: Our best civilian and
military minds are at work on
what we can do and we will
certainly take every possible &C

MOSCOW, Jan. 20.-Western
diplomats pictured the strange
quiet emanating from the
Kremlin today as a mask for
a major development in the
wind.
Exactly where it will blow
no Western diplomat was brash
enough to predict. But one of
the most respected Western
ambassadors in Moscow said
he believed it is much more
likely to involve Red China
than Berlin.
Noting that Soviet foreign
and domestic policy seems
pretty much or dead center,
this diplomat said there never
has been a period of quiet like
this without it exploding into
some major move.
The diplomat, who is in close
contact with high members of
the Soviet government, said it
was obvious that a major dis
agreement is going on What
was not clear, he said. was
whether it was a squabble
among top members of the
Soviet Communist Party or
more widespread among mem
bers of the Soviet bloc.

memorial to one of America S
foremost explorers, Rear Admi-

represents an Antarctic tent
facing south toward Ant

and Evans in the McMurdo
Sound region of the Antarctic
A bust of Byrd and plaques
recording his feats will be inset
in the memorials south wall.
Devoted to Peace
Admiral Byrd, apart from his
fame as an explorer, was de-
voted to the cause of freedom
and peace. His conception of
Antarctica as "the great white
continent Of peace" led to the
signing Of the Antarctic treaty
"a document pledging it's 13
Signatories to peaceful co-ope-
ration in the frozen south
ern wastes.
With these ideals in mind,
the New Zealand Richard E.
Byrd Fellowship initiated an
appeal for funds to build a
Byrd memorial.
Business firms and individ-
uals offered money and merch-
andise. Now, just two years af-
ter the memorial was suggested,
last minute preparations are
being made for the unveiling.
