Henry Cabot Lodge Is
slated to be our next AM
baSsador to Wet Nam, ac-
cOrding to an informed
source. The selection of the
prominent Republican for
the trouble spot was made
last week and is so new that
not even the agreements"
have been exchanged.
Indeed, our present Am
bassador Fritz Noting is due
to come here next month and
return to Wet Nam for a
period before his successor
takes over. In Brussels last
week Mr.. Lodge announced
his resignation as director
general Of the Atlantic In
stitute effective the end Of
the year.
The appointment Of the
former Ambassador to the
United Nations and @. o. p.
vice presidential candidate Of
1860 is said to make sense
for several reasons.
To begin with, our policy
toward the little southeast
Asian country is so expensive
1t Is politically vulnerable.
In the last six years we have
poured into 1t almost 50
billion in military and eco
nomic aid. The current rate
Of aid is from $500 million to
$3.50 million a year, which is
Q lot In terms of aid but not
so much in terms of a war
there against the Communists
which is now going our way.
To interpret this financial
need to the opposition the
President could not choose q
more eloquent member of the
opposition than Cabot Lodge.
Bipartisan in his foreign
policy and q man Of stature,
he will reflect, too, the i'm
portance the United States
attaches to the Vietnamese
cause against the Commu-
I1ists.
Also, he Is a man of means
which is to say he can stand
the drain Of q post where the
Ambassador continually has
to dip into his personal in
come to provide entertain
ment for the stream Of legis-
lators who run up expendi-
lures checking on expendi-
lures. Mr.. Noting, who is
not in the same well-heeled
position, has stood the drain
for two years.
Mr.. Lodge, who was here
last week, returned to Mas
sachusetts the early part of
this week. but will be back
later this summer.

BRITISH AMBASSADOR
Sir David Ormsby Gore said
yesterday when asked for his
opinion Of the vote on the

Compared to the picture last

ated Of blame and he pointed
out that there we're no big

When he spoke at the
Afghanistan Ambassador and
Mrs. Maiwandwal's farewall
reception yesterday, it was
clear that Sir David obviously
feels that 1t was grossly I'M
fair to clobber the Prime
Minister for q scandle he did

The imminent departure on

their country's embassy in
Pakistan, caused quite q turn

Radiation Bomb Story
Brings Security Check

Representative Westland said
he will ask the Attorney Gen.
erals office to consider prose-
cution of violators if the Acc
establishes that security has
been compromised or if any
laws have been violated.
Mr.. Fishers reference to the
enhanced radiation" weapon
occurred in an exchange of
letters with Senator Dodd
about the United States pro-
poSal for a nuclear test ban
treaty. The disarmament Of
ficial mentioned the weapon
to support his claim that the
United States has no critical
need for the pure fusion or
so-called neutron bomb and
therefore could enter into a
test ban treaty with the So
Wet Union.
In his reply, Senator Dodd
said he had heSitated to refer
to the enhanced radiation"
weapon because of its CLASH
fication. but still saw value in
developing a pure-fusion weap-
on because it would be cheaper,
lighter, more versatile and eff
fective, and could be tailored

Minimum Blast Effect
The neutron bomb, generally
understood to be a pure fusion
weapon, would have a mini
mum blast and heat effect but
would emit large numbers of
deadly neutrons that could kill
people while preserving struc-
lures.
So far scientists are not

Enhanced radiation" refers
to a burst Of neutrons lasting
for only millionths of a second
and is not to be confused with
radioactlvity from nuclear =

ing phenomenon.
Representative Westland said
he was "astounded" that Mr..
Fisher would put out in print"
information on the enhanced
radiation weapon. The Con-
gresham said he had been very
critical of Mr.. Fisher" in his
telephone conversation with
Mr.. Foster Tuesday.
The weapon is mot a sub

Caution on Both Sides

price situation. One union
source said the USW tradition
ally takes the position that
prices are none Of our busi-
ness"
Nevertheless, a general price
rise certainly would increase
the chances for a USW wage
increase move this spring.
Third, the administration
recognizes that last years vic
tory over the industry had
harmful repercussions. OFF,
Gals agree to some extent that
the battle impaired the busi-
ness community's confidence in
the administration and in the
prospects for profit.
Dilemma Outlined
This loss Of confidence. some
have conceded, prob
ably accounted in part for the
economy's showdown last year.
The President may hesitate,
therefore, to challenge the steel
industry to another about
fight. He wants businessmen
to be confident so they will
invest in new and bigger plants.
And he needs business support
to push his tax program
through Congress.
Steel demand lately has in
creased substantially, and the
has boosted produc-
ton for 10 consecutive weeks.
On the surface, at least, the
market situation looks favor
able for price increases.
But an influential economist,
outside the administration,
noted today that demand for
steel has been inflated by spe-
cial factors. notably the fear
OF a steel strike later this year.
He predicted the industry
could not make a general price
increase stick" Real demand
for steel has increased, he said
but not enough TO support
higher prices.

round Of price and wage in
creases through the economy.
Other Factors Different
But the picture in most other
respects is very different from
the, situation a year ago, when
Mr.. Kennedy rolled up the big
guns of Government and public
opinion to force the industry to
cancel price increases in a 70
hour melodrama.
These differences account for
the cautious. low-key man.
euvers on both sides.
First. the 1862 price boost
was started by United States
Steel, the industry's biggest
producer. Wheeling. which
ranks 18th in the industry, is
leading the way this time. 1t
cannot be argued that Wheel
ing's price actions alone could
have a major impact on the
economy.
Other big companies quickly
raised prices in line with United
States Steel in 1852, giving the
appearance Of concerted action
and setting the stage for
threats of antitrust prosecu-
ton. This time, other COM
panies are waiting, and could
put price increases into effect
gradually over a period Of
weeks.
Price Rise Selective
The 1862 price rise was a
general one. Wheeling's boosts
this time are selective, concen-
trated on products with strong
demand.
Second. the industry raised
prices in 1862 soon after the
President helped the companies
negotiate a relatively low-cost
labor contract, and he inter-
preted the move as a deliberate
breach Of faith, This time
labor negotiations are In the
future rather than the past.
Some industry sources said
this factor might weaken the
case for price increases. de-
spite contentious that costs are
rising steadily and squeezing
profits. AT the same time, how
ever. an effort by the President
TO prevent price increases would
look like clear-cut price con.
trolls In the absence Of the spe.
cial labor factor.
