WASHINGTON =lR = President John F. Kennedy appears to be the best air-conditioned man in Washington these days.
 While the political sirocco blows hot from Capitol Hill, Kennedy looks cool.
 He sits in his rocking chair, erunching the ice from a soft drink, slowly smoking a thin ci- gar, examining the record as he approaches mid-passage in his first term in the White House There are no visible cracks in his marble calm
 True, he flared up recently-at least for television-after the Sen- ate killed bill providing health assistance for the aged. Before the Senate vote, however, he knew s'medicare' stood little or no chance of passing the House this year. So now Kennedy has it as an issue in the November cleo tions He expects to use it effect ively.
 On other key measures, too, as conservative members of his own party sided with the remarkably unified Republicans, Congress has been road-blocking the President. It shelved his farm bill, the gen. eral school aid bill, his several re- quests for standby powers. and a department of urban affairs.
 Talks Optimistically
 But if heZfeels frustrated, he doesn't show it. He talks opti- mistieally. He says the record looks pretty good now and, hope ,, fally,, will be better bY.t the time Congress adjourns.
 He bases this on the outlook for several pending bills that he con- siders supremely important. One is the Trade Expansion Act. Il arms the President with author ity to negotiate reciprocal reduc- tions of tariffs on a broad range of products. Ii would affect the future relations between the Am erican producer and the European Common Market.
 The others are federal aid to higher education. and the Youth Employment Opportunities Act.
 A year ago, Americans were talking about fallout shelters, and disturbing signs for Western unity, Laos, South Vietnam and especial ly Berlin. Reservists were being called by the Army and Air Force. The prestige of the United States had been damaged by the UP case.
 In short, crisis was in the air and the focus of American atten- tion was primarily overseas.
 Meanwhile, in Kennedys first year, a recession ended. Economic barometers began moving up in

This IS good season for

spring. Old peach and apple
trees may be pruncd ratke,
heavily if they have been ne
elected.
Perhaps some evergreen
shrubs have gotten unruly and
need attention - ligustrum.
Burfordi hollicS and others. If
they have been neglected, don't
try to correct all at once but
rather gradually over year
or two. If you ever let pyrE-
cantha get out of hand you are
in trouble unless il has plenty
OF room and needs little or no
pruning. Keep these plants
shaped To suit your notion as
they grow
Someone asked the other day
about the best time TO prune
crepe myrtleS. Now, if they
need 1t. Usually this plant is
pruncd very little.
This is planting time, too,
for all trees and shrubs. Fruit
trees and grape vines will have
naked roots. so don't let them
dry out before planting.
For these types, dig a hole
plenty large enough to prevent
crowding Of the roots, deep
enough so that the plant is set

enough lot your feet.
When digging separate top

soil can be placed around the
roots, cover roots thoroughly
and shake tree gently UP and
down to settle the soil. Add
more soil and pack with your
feet. Continue this operation
until within about four inches
of the top of the hole, then
throw in loose soil.
Equal volume of peat mixed
with the top soil is good
practice
Shrubs that are balled and

Be sure not to work soil

received when soil is wet or
frozen, put them in a protected
place and cover the roots or
