In Cuba may not be the major
concern of the Kennedy admin
istration. The administration
may be more concerned about
what their presence tells about
the intentions Of Mr.. Khru-
shchev.
II Mr.. Khrushchev, in the
secret correspondence, made q
firm commitment to remove the
troops, the administration
could be extremely concerned
about the situation.
But II Mr.. Khrushchev SIM
ply said he would remove them
after they had completed an
assignment - such as training
Cubans in handling Russian
weapons-then the administra-
ton might be less concerned.
At the moment, then, the key
to the meaning Of the current
furore over Cuba may be locked

Chairman Patman's hiring OF

along with Mr.. Patman's re-

said, England was asking not
for full membership in the

Is the present furor over
Cuba based on fluff or sub
stance? The real answer may
lie in the secret correspondence
Of Soviet Premier Khrushchey
and President Kennedy.
In the last few weeks Of con-
troversy and confusion, an odd
drama has been played in
Washington:
Critics first rallied at the ad-
ministration, crying that So
Wet missiles and missile sites
still remain in Cuba. The storm
drove the administration into
an unprecedented picture show
defense Of It's intelligence oper-
ations.
But, In the defense, the ad-
ministration revealed q concern
and an uneasiness-not about
missiles and missile sites, but
about the removal of Soviet
troops.
None Of the published cores
pondence between Mr.. Khru-
shchev and Mr.. Kennedy con-
tains any promise to remove
Russian troops from Cuba.
But the secret correspond
ence repeatedly does.
Raw Nerve Explored
In short, the critics may have
helped draw attention to q raw
nerve of the administration on
Cuba policy.
Senator Keating, Republican
Of New York, took leadership of
the critics during the drama.
The public listened when he
spoke, for last October 10 be-
fore the Cuban crisis, he had
warned that the Soviets were
building missile sites in Cuba.
United States reconnaissance
planes found them there a few
days later.
In his most sensational
charge, Senator Heating told
the Senate last January 81 that
there is continuing, absolute
ly confirmed and undeniable
evidence that the Soviets are
maintaining and guarding the
medium-range (misSile) sites
they had previously constructed
in Cuba"
The congressional criticism
had two overtones:
First, politics. Most critics
were Republicans. Most de-
tenders were Democrats. The
biggest congressional counter
attack against Senator Keat-
ing, for example, came from
Representative Stratton Of New
York, q young Democrat who

Senate Action
On Rowan and
Herter Stayed
BY the Associated Press

The Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee has put OFF
until next week action on norn-
nations of Christian Herter to
be special United States repre-
sentative for trade negotiations
and of Carl Rowan to be Am
bassador to Finland.
The postponement was nee
essary because Of the absence
Of a quorum yesterday.
Mr.. Herter is a former Sec
retary Of State under President
Eisenhower. Mr.. Rowan, a Ne
gro and former Minneapolis
Tribune reporter, is Deputy As
sistant Secretary Of State for
Public Affairs.
He testified yesterday the
State Department cleared a
speech he made criticizing
propaganda activities in the
United States of the secession
ist Katanga regime.
The speech, in Philadelphia
in 1861, was referred to only
in passing by Chairman Full
bright, Democrat of Arkansas.
Mr.. Rowan, 81 said he told
the Philadelphia audience that
most criticism of United States
supported United Nations ac-
ton against Katanga province
in the Congo was circulated by
Michele Struelens. a paid agent
for President Noise Tshombe
and Katanga.
When Mr.. Rowan testified
the Philadelphia speech was
cleared by the State Depart
ment," Senator Fulbright did
not pursue the matter.
Archibald s. Alexander, So
year-old chairman of the New
Jersey Commission on State
Tax Policy, was questioned on
his nomination to be an as
sistant director Of the Arms
Control and Disarmament
Agency. He said he favors q
nuclear test ban agreement,
providing it can be achieved
without jeopardizing our Sc
curity."
The committee also briefly
questioned:
Edward M. Korry, q former
foreign correspondent, to be
Ambassador to Ethiopia. He is
manager of special projects and
assistant to the president of
Cowles Magazines and Broad
casting, Inc.
Charles D. Withers of Flor
ida, a foreign inspector, to be
Ambassador to Runada.
William j. Porter, of Massa-
chusetts, now consul general,
to be the first Ambassador to
Algeria.

representative on the executive
board Of the World Health Or
ganization. He is now alter

he said that he had read "a

that these forces would be re-
moved in due course or due
time"
Letter Not Yet Public
This was nothing new. Both
Mr.. Kennedy and Secretary Of
State Rusk had referred to this
statement of Mr.. Khrushchev
before. 1t repeatedly came in
a November 20 letter from Mr..
KhruShcheV to Mr.. Kennedy

Hiring Of Bug Figure

Baron I. Shacklette is the
center of another argument on
Capitol Hill.
The stocky investigator has
been hired for the staff Of the
House Banking and Currency
Committee by Its chairman.
Representative Patman, Demo-
crat of Texas. Mr.. Patman has
also been chairman Of the
House Small Business Commit

chief investigator there, too.
The appointment has aroused
resentment among some COM
mittee members, including Rep
resentative Kilburn. Republican
Of New York, the ranking Re-
publican.
Linked to Hotel Case
Mr.. Shacklette's last claim
on the local headlines came in
1858, when he and Jack Ander-
son, q colleague Of columnist
Drew Pearson, plugged" the
hotel room Of aides to Bernard
Goldfine. Boston industrialist.
At the time Mr.. Shacklette
was chief investigator of the
House Legislative Oversight
Subcommittee, which was look
ing into stories of expensive
Goldfine gifts to people in Gov
ernment, including presidential
assistant Sherman Adams.
Jack Lotto. then serving as
an aide to Goldfine, found q
microphone under the door of
his hotel room and traced 1t
to q room next door occupied
by Mr.. Shacklette and Mr.. An

Shacklette for eavesdropping,
and he resigned from the staff
