Warren to Continue

Chief Justice Earl Warren agreed last week to the request of President-elect Nixon that he preside over the Supreme Court through the end of its term next June. Nixon said he will choose later on a successor to the retiring, 77-year-old chief justice.

Warren submitted his resignation to President Johnson some five months ago, effective when a successor was approved by the Senate. But Johnson's choice of Justice Abe Fortas to succeed Warren touched off a long and bitter debate in the Senate. Ultimately, the nomination was withdrawn at Fortas' request.

In other appointments last week, Nixon named Dr. Henry A. Kissinger, Harvard professor, as his assistant for national security affairs. Dr. Paul W. McCracken, a professor at the Michigan Graduate School of Business Administration, was named to head the Council of Economic Advisers.

# Scranton Begins Tour of 6 Nations in Nixon's Bid for Mideast Peace

NIX

NEW YORK — (UPD) — President-elect Richard M. Nixon dispatched one of his key foreign policy advisers on a nine-day fact-finding trip to the Middle East today.

Former Pennsylvania Gov. William W. Scranton's tour will take him to six nations in the troubled region where Nixon believes Russian expansionist ideas have increased already high tensions and made war more likely.

Scranton is to meet with chiefs of state and other government leaders in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, United Arab Republic (Egypt), Lebanon and Israel.

NIXON APPOINTED Dr. Henry A. Kissinger, German-born Harvard University educator, as assistant to the President-elect for National Security Affairs.

The 47-year-old professor of government, al eading expert in weapons systems and defense policy, has been an adviser to the administrations of Presidents Eihenhower, Kennedy and Johnson,

Kissinger, who came to the United

States with his family as a refugee from Naziism in 1938, later became a naturalized U. S. citizen.

Nixon said Kissinger would be charged with revitalizing and streamlining the National Security Council.

At the same time Nixon named Dr. Richard V. Allen, a senior staff member of the Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace at Stanford University as Kissinger's principal associate on the National Security Council.

Nixon, meanwhile, give his backing to a major effort by private businessmen to hire the hard-core unemployed.

ROBERT ELLSWORTH, an assistant to Nixon, held a two-hour lunch wth Henry Ford II, president of the National Alliance of Businessmen (NAB) and chairman of the board of Ford Motor Co., Paul Austin of Atlanta, Coca-Cola president and vice president of the alliance, and Lee Beebe, a Ford vice president on loan to the NAB as its executive director.

# Reorganizing National Security

ORGANIZATION, more than flair, is the Nixon style that was evident in the election campaign, predicted as a characteristic of the new administration, and confirmed this week as the President-elect began announcing appointments of White House policy advisers. By selecting Harvard Professor Henry Kissinger as his adviser for national security policy, Mr. Nixon has underscored his previous statements about better organization of America's foreign policy-making machinery.

Kissinger is already at work on a study for reorganizing the National Security Council, largely dormant in recent years, and he has long been a critic of ad hoc policy improvisation and intuitive diplomacy. In a prescient comment three years ago, Kissinger said, "American presidential charm is unlikely to impress the Soviets."

In addition to organization, two other probable characteristics of the Nixon administration can be seen in the Kissinger appointment. One is stress on professional competence and experience, qualities Kissinger shares with Lee A. DuBridge, California Institute of Technology president, who was appointed Tuesday as science adviser.

Acknowledged brilliance will not immunize Kissinger from criticism any more than the credentials of his predecessors, Walt Rostow and McGeorge Bundy, protected them. But Kissinger

holds an advantage in the length of time he has been looked upon as one of the country's leading national security experts who has had enough Washington experience to be close to government but has avoided being "tainted" by administration commitments. His 1957 book, "Nuclear Weapons and Foreign Policy" continues to be a standard reference; he has written and lectured extensively since then and has served at various times as a consultant to the Kennedy and Johnson administrations as well as to Gov. Nelson Rockefeller.

A second likely characteristic of the administration to be seen in the Kissinger appointment comes from its timing. Even though Mr. Nixon said Monday that there should be no conflict in the advisory roles of Kissinger and those of the Secretaries of State and Defense, the Cabinet positions have not been announced. Whatever the intention, this chronology of appointments reduces to some degree the standing of the Cabinet posts in relation to the White House national security adviser.

The essential point now is that Mr. Nixon has given to national security problems an emphasis commensurate with their importance. The time for public approval or criticism will come as the administration begins offering solutions to those problems.

# Nixon Appoints Kissinger To Staff

NEW YORK (AP) — President-elect Richard M. Nixon Monday appointed foreign policy scholar Henry A. Kissinger his assistant for national security affairs, with instructions to overhaul the diplomacy and defense operations of the White House.

Kissinger, a Harvard University professor, shunned the suggestion that his is a hard-line view of world problems. He said he will stress long-range planning which can "prevent crises from happening."

The president-elect personally announced his choice of the 45-year-old teacher, author and government consultant to what he said will be a major policy position in the new administration.

"There will be a complete reorganization and restructuring of the entire White House security planning machinery," Nixon said.

Kissinger said his job in essence is to see that all options are considered and long-range planning is weighed in shaping security decisions.

Neither Nixon nor his new aide would discuss security policy matters, stressing machinery instead. Nixon said it would not be appropriate for him to talk about substantive policy matters publicly until after the inauguration; Kissinger said that as a White House assistant it

would not be appropriate for him to talk about them at all.

But when a reporter noted that Kissinger has a reputation as a man with hard-line views on dealings with the Communist world, the professor replied:

"I have tried to avoid labels like hard and soft. I find it very difficult to characterize myself."

Nixon said the National Security Council is going to be "revitalized and streamlined, and I will meet with it frequently and regularly."

He said Kissinger will be in charge of that effort. Nixon said the council will put major emphasis on contingency planning, to prepare for problems before they become crises.

# Conquering Dr. Strangelove

Military analyst Herman Kahn, a pioneer in the grim study of nuclear war and peace, once commented that producer Stanley Kubrick probably created the title role of the film *Dr. Strangelove* from impressions of himself, scientist Wernher von Braun, and Henry Alfred Kissinger.

Dr. Kissinger, just named by President-elect Nixon as a top adviser on national security, is no Strangelove. In the movie, the mad scientist shows obvious relish for a "doomsday machine" which will destroy the human race; in real life, Dr. Kissinger has devoted most of his career to pursuit of a rational policy to avoid just such a holo-caust.

The disclaimer of a Strangelove anology may seem unnecessary to some, in view of Dr. Kissinger's credentials—years of teaching at Harvard; historical scholarship; several books on America's relations with Russia, Europe, and the world; consultation with Presidents Eisenhower and Kennedy—but the New Left is certain to seize upon the wisp of German accent which

remains in his speech (he came to the United States at age 15) and his deep concern with the threat of nuclear war to build a false analogy.

The real significance of Dr. Kissinger's appointment is the indication it gives of Mr. Nixon's determination to reverse the present course of the United States in foreign affairs. Lyndon Johnson, probably because of his passionate attachment to keeping options open, has avoided formulating foreign policy in long-range terms. Dr. Kissinger in his writings has forcefully argued that a clear-cut strategic doctrine is vital in the military arena, and that the United States must have "some notion of how we want to shape history." The consonance of the Kissinger view with that of the President-elect was underscored by the latter's remark Monday that the Nation must do more than "just react to events when they occur."

As an historian, Dr. Kissinger is of course aware that the record of "grand designs" in world affairs is an unhappy one. Napoleon and Hitler had such designs, and their contributions to world order were not notable. But these designers, like many before them, sought their

goals through conquest; a really sensible design for world order and human advancement through peace never has been framed. Perhaps, it never will be, but Dr. Kissinger believes that something of the kind is possible.

There is evidence, too, that the prospective White House aide is not as inflexible as he might seem at first glance. He advocates continuous review of policy, and in fact has reversed at least one of his own positions during his 15-year career as an author. But he maintains that there is a real difference between the case-by-case drift which he sees in present U.S. relations with the outside world and a policy which would combine adjustments to major changes abroad with a set of long-range goals.

The argument for coherence in foreign policy has much merit, for pragmatic drift is largely to blame for our Vietnam quagmire. Furthermore, in the terrifying world of nuclear deterrence, nothing is so dangerous as the haze of ambiguity: a misunderstood position easily could lead to a miscalculated response. Then we might indeed be face-to-face with Dr. Strangelove.

Expert on Europe Is Named by Nixon
As Major National Security Adviser

NEW YORK (UPI) — President-elect Nixon appointed Dr. Henry A. Kissinger, an expert on West European affairs, as his main adviser for national security policy Monday.

The appointment of Kissinger, 45, a German-born professor of government at Harvard University set the stage for what Nixon called a "revitalization" of the National Security Council as well as White House security planning.

Nixon and Kissinger said they would seek to develop long-range policy and contingency plans to prevent "crisis operations." As Nixon put it: "It is our plan to revitalize the National Security Council . . . so we may not just react . . . but so we can have a planned policy in effect."

Nixon said he chose Kissinger for what he described as "the first appointment to the White House staff in a major policy position" partly because of his work on a study of the administrative transition and partly because he had never held a policy position in government before.

"I felt it was time to bring in someone who had never had that responsibility," Nixon said. He believes Kissinger will attract new ideas and men to the administration.

Kissinger currently is working on a study of the National Security Council and its reorganization, which he will submit to

Nixon before the inauguration. He declined to discuss what his recommendations might be, but he did say he expected to increase the Council's "planning function" and assign its operating functions to other departments. He said he expected to keep a small staff of about 20 persons on the Council.

Nixon also announced that Dr. Richard V. Allen of the Hoover Institution of War, Revolution and Peace at Stanford University will be a principal associate of Kissinger on the Council staff. Allen was Nixon's campaign director of foreign policy research.

Allen is an energetic man, deeply suspicious of the Russians. He is known for being more harsh than most on "the building of bridges" between Washington and Moscow.

Last year he called the United States-Soviet consul treaty, which was ratified, "premature" in testimony before the Senate.

Allen questions the theory of many fellow experts that the two societies are moving in many ways closer to each other.

His associates describe him as maintaining a thorough skepticism about all Communist uterances, believing they usually are meant to put the West off-guard.

Kissinger, who was born in Fuerth, Germany, on May 27,

1923, and became a naturalized citizen after he came here in 1938, said he would bring leading foreign intellectuals to the planning of foreign affairs. Among these foreign advisers, Nixon said, would be men like Alistair Buchanan, chairman of the London Institute for Strategic Studies. "It's this kind of man who we'd like to have," Nixon said.

Nixon said the most pressing areas of foreign policy action were Vietnam and the Middle East.

He met Monday with former Pennsylvania Governor William W. Scranton before Scranton left on a tour of six Middle East countries to discuss the Arab-Israeli conflict with heads of state. Scranton was scheduled to fly to Tehran, Iran, Monday night.

Following close behind Vietnam and the Middle East, Nixon said, was his concern over such long-range issues as East-West relations, talks between the United States and Russia, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, and Latin American and African relations with the United States.

He said he saw "no possibility of conflict" between Kissinger's advisory capacity and that of the secretaries of State or Defense, but he said "the views he [Kissinger] will express will have great weight with me."

# Nixon Appoints
Science Adviser

NEW YORK (UPI)—President-elect Richard M. Nixon, his administration beginning to take shape, today names as his chief science adviser Dr. Lee A. Dubridge, president of the California Institute of Technology.

Nixon was to introduce Dubridge, a long-time personal friend and a renowned physicist, at a news conference at 10 a.m. EST.

Dubridge, who will take a leave of absence from Caltech, has met with the president-elect several times since Nixon's election to help map plans for scientific programs in his administration.

He told newsmen after a meeting with Nixon last week that he was not a candidate for a White House post but that as

a patriotic American he could not turn a firm presidential offer down.

"No scientist will decline an important government position if offered one," he said. He will replace Dr. John P. Hornig, President Johnson's science adviser.

Nixon named the first high level policy maker in his administration Monday when he appointed Dr. Henry A. Kissinger of Harvard University as his assistant for national security.

In his new post, Kissinger, 45, will be the chief liaison between the president and the state and defense departments. He will occupy the position now held by Walt W. Rostow, Johnson's national security adviser.

# Nixon Best Candidate Since Hoover: Buckley

NEW HAVEN (UPI) — Conservative editor and columnist William F. Buckley Jr. says he doubts president-elect Richard Richard M. Nixon can unify the country, because it would take a “Hitlerian figure, which obviously we don’t want,” to end national disunity.

3Speaking before the Yale Political Union Monday, the former New York City mayoralty candidate told a press conference he believed Nixon was technically competent and “the best qualified candidate since Herbert Hoover,” but that neither he nor any politician can cure the country’s divisions.

The editor of National Review and nationally syndicated newspaper columnist said it was an “illusion” to think anyone could breach the gaps of contemporary America. “And any attempt to staunch that particular illusion will more likely have a bad than good effect, because in order to unify a country so torn apart as ours is at this moment, you would need almost a Hitlerian figure, which obviously we don’t

want. And that, I don't think we'll find in Nixon,

we said.
Mr. Buckley said a recent report on the demonstrations at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago last summer told him nothing he did not already know.

But, he added, “There was some police brutality.”

However, he pointed out the report failed to deal “with the interesting question, was there institutional responsibility for it?”

Buckley said culpable Chicago policemen “should be treated like other transgressors of the law.”

“Like clergymen,” he said in an aside, apparently referring to the Rev. William Sloane Coffin, the Yale chaplain who is appealing a federal conviction on a charge of conspiring to counsel young men to avoid the draft.

Buckley said that Nixon's choice Monday of Dr. Henry Kissinger of Harvard as national security policy adviser to the president was “a very good one.”

AS LBJ SEES HIS RECORD

-Wide World Photo

What thoughts cross the mind of Lyndon Johnson as his Presidency nears its end?

What does the Chief Executive see as his successes, his failures, his satisfactions, his disappointments?

In the late hours of busy days, the President finds time for reflective moments with intimates. In informal conversations, he appraises—sometimes pungently, sometimes philosophically—the record of his five years in the White House.

Following are some of Mr. Johnson's views.

**WAR.** The President sees the war in Vietnam as having a grave impact on the U. S., creating harsh divisions and upsetting plans he had hoped to bring to fulfillment. He feels that, if there had been no war, much more could have been done in the area of social legislation, and there would have been much more unity, much less bitterness.

But Mr. Johnson would not change any of his major decisions on the war.

He believes that the 1965 decision to engage the enemy with large numbers of American troops, which was most difficult to make, was absolutely necessary, and he would do it again.

The President is convinced that, if the Nixon Administra-

tion sees it through in Vietnam as the Johnson Administration has done, then Asia, where two thirds of the world's population lives, will have a chance for stability, freedom and progress.

It is implicit in remarks the President makes to his aides that the war was not of his making, that it was inherited with a host of other problems when he took office. He sometimes reminds his listeners it was President Eisenhower, during another interregnum, who told President-elect John F. Kennedy that he would have to face up to the situation in Southeast Asia.

Mr. Johnson looks upon Southeast Asia as the key to the balance of power in all of Asia. He feels that the U. S. Senate sees this, since it backed him on Vietnam. The U. S., the President believes, is doing what it must do in Vietnam because of its obligations under the Southeast Asia Treaty, and to do otherwise would undermine faith in America almost everywhere.

It is also implicit in the President's talks with confidants that he does not know when peace may come, but that, if there is a continuity of policy by the Nixon Administration, there will be peace and a better future for that region of the world.

Mr. Johnson believes that when that time comes and when history has made its judgment, success in Asia will rank as his Administration's greatest achievement in foreign policy.

**BOMBING HALT.** Taken for granted in LBJ's colloquies with aides is the idea that the bombing pause affecting all of North Vietnam, which was ordered on October 31, was a logical sequel to the President's decision in March not to seek another term. Mr. Johnson tells close companions that both actions were part of a sincere effort to increase chances for peace, with timing of the bombing halt depending solely on Hanoi's understanding that air assault would stop when the Communists agreed to include the Saigon Government in the Paris talks, stopped shelling South Vietnamese cities and ceased misusing the Demilitarized Zone.

The President is disturbed by reports that aides of President-elect Nixon considered the bombing halt a "political move." Mr. Johnson tells intimates that he told Mr. Nixon as early as last October 16 that "the bombing might stop in five minutes if Hanoi agrees to U. S. proposals." Mr. Nixon is reported to have assured the President that he would back the decision.

Consequently, the President finds it difficult to understand reports that the bombing halt came as a surprise to the Nixon camp.

**SATISFACTIONS.** Mr. Johnson feels that the social changes brought about at home by masses of legislation bearing his imprint were his greatest contributions. He takes much satisfaction in this, especially so in regard to legislation affecting education.

The President believes that the country might have been hit much more severely by riots and other upheavals if the flood of legislation had not come when it did. He believes that he has left a solid foundation for building to make Americans better off, healthier, happier.

Mr. Johnson takes pride in the "good Congresses" he has had. He believes that he won better co-operation from businessmen than any other President, and feels that many other groups, including organized labor, worked well with him.

Harvard Braintruster
Named Key Nixon Aide

NEW YORK (AP) — President-elect Richard M. Nixon announced today he is making Harvard Prof. Henry A. Kissinger his assistant for national security affairs to oversee the foreign and defense policy machinery of the White House.

Nixon, at a news conference, said the 45-year-old Kissinger, a native of Germany, will revamp the entire security planning machinery at the White House with an aim to preventing global crises rather than simply dealing with them as they arise.

President-elect said he was concerned that, after inauguration day, he gets a broad spectrum of news on foreign policy problems and is "not presented with a paper that represents a consensus—the least common denominator."

He said he was calling on Kissinger, a professor of government at Harvard, to bring in

new men and promote new ideas so he will have the benefit of divergent views.

Asked if Kissinger might overshadow the man Nixon eventually appoints as secretary of state, the incoming chief executive said, "I intend to have a very strong secretary of state." But he insisted has has not decided on nominees for either the state or defense cabinet posts.

Kissinger said he foresaw no prospect that he would be in competition with the men who eventually get those cabinet jobs.

Long a federal consultant, but never a full-time government official, Kissinger was asked if he had not tended to pursue a hard line on Vietnam and other top overseas problems.

"I have tried to avoid labels like hard or soft," he replied.

To assist Kissinger in developing the new national security apparatus at the White House, Nixon named 42-year-old Richard V. Allen, a senior staff member at the Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace at Stanford University. Allen, who will be a "principal associate" of Kissinger's, served as director of foreign

# Job rumors fly as Harvard prof sees Nixon again

By FRANK CORMIER

President - elect Richard M. Nixon meets today with Henry Kissinger, a Harvard brain-truster, in their fourth publicly announced meeting in eight days.

This coincides with reports around the Nixon headquarters that an important noneabinet appointment would be announced today.

Kissinger, 45, director of Harvard University's defense studies program and head of the Harvard International Seminar, was a federal consultant on

national security matters early in the administration of the late President John F. Kennedy.

Kissinger has continued to serve as a consultant on nuclear weaponry.

Sunday's developments around the Nixon camp hinted at the possibility the President-elect might not go as far as his campaign speeches indicated in substituting tax credits— requiring congressional approval—for direct federal subsidies in some aspects of the antipoverty program.

Robert Ellsworth, a top assistant to Nixon, had lunch here Sunday with Henry Ford II, board chairman of the Ford Motor Co. and chairman of the National Alliance of Businessmen created earlier this year at the behest of President Johnson.

## JOB GOAL

The alliance has a goal of creating 500,000 jobs for the hardcore unemployed by early 1971. Businessmen train the recruits for regular jobs, with the federal government paying the difference between the normal cost of such training and—in about one-third of all cases—the higher cost of preparing the disadvantaged for similar employment. Congress appropriated $100 million for such subsidies to business in the fiscal year ending June 30.

During the campaign, Nixon often talked about substituting tax credits for subsidies in this type of situation but, after Sunday's luncheon, Ellsworth said Nixon is "hopeful and desirous" of continuing the alliance program "aggressively and progressively."

Exhilarated, Says Agnew

Agnew, asked about reports
that he was disappointed be-
cause he was not being con-
sulted by the President-elect,
said that, on the contrary, he
was exhilarated by the
"enlarged scope of the vice
president's duties."

He reported that he had
"talked to the President-elect
at least every other day" since
the election. Their meeting
Wednesday was the second
since the election.

Agnew said he wished to cor-
rect a misunderstanding after
their first meeting, when it
was indicated he would have
no staff of his own.

So Long As Hubert's

On the contrary, he said, he
will have a setup as large as
Vice President Hubert H.
Humphrey's, both on Capitol
Hill and in the Executive Of-
fice Building, and he will have
an administrative assistant.
This will be a new post, he
said.

In addition, Agnew ex-
plained, he will be able to
make use of the White House
staff. He will have an office
in the west wing of the White
House, an innovation.

Agnew said he discussed
many subjects with the
President-elect, including
Cabinet appointments.

The vice president-elect is
flying to San Francisco early
next week for a meeting of the
executive committee of the
National Governors Con-
ference. Later in the week, he
will go to Palm Springs, Calif.,
for a meeting of Republican
governors. Nixon will join him
there Dec. 6.

After Murphy met with Nix-
on, he said he found the
President-elect encouraged and
pleased that the Saigon

government will participate in
the Paris talks.

"He is fully conscious a
significant barrler has been
passed," Murphy said. "We
are now faced with com-
plicated negotiations."

# Nixon Considering Overlap In Paris Talk Participants

[By a Sun Staff Correspondent]

New York, Nov. 25 — President-elect Nixon today "showed interest" in maintaining American continuity at the Paris peace talks by retaining one of the present negotiators after the new administration takes over.

Senator Javits (R., N.Y.) emerged from an hour's meeting with Mr. Nixon to disclose that the President-elect had indicated interest in the continuity question.

## Choice Not Decided

The senator emphasized that Mr. Nixon had not reached any decision on who will represent the United States in Paris after his inauguration in January, but had authorized him to reveal his concern with maintaining smoothness of operation at the talks.

There has been considerable speculation regarding who would be chosen to replace Ambassadors W. Averell Harriman and Cyrus R. Vance, who have led the American team of negotiators at the talks so far.

## Tour Of West Europe

Mr. Javits refused to reveal whether the President-elect is leaning toward either Mr. Harriman or Mr. Vance to represent the Nixon as well as the Johnson Administration.

Nixon shortly after returning from a tour of Western Europe, undertaken partly at the request of the President-elect and partly

as chairman of the political committee of the North Atlantic Assembly.

After talking with leaders in Belgium, France, West Germany and Italy, the senator reported to the President-elect on his impressions of major European concerns at present.

He stressed the "deep interest" of Europeans in the efforts of the United States to achieve peace in Vietnam, and also noted their belief in the importance of a detente between America and Russia.

## Non-Proliferation Pact

On American ratification of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty, Senator Javits said this was a "critical point" with Europeans, who felt that it would re-emphasize the American commitment to Europe.

It was not their feeling, he said, that the Russian invusion of Czechoslavakia constituted a reason for postponing signing of that treaty.

Mr. Nixon also met today with Professor Henry Kissinger, of Harvard University; with Senator John Tower of Texas and with Governor James Rhodes of Ohio.

Senator Tower told newsmen that during his hour with the President-elect, there was discussion of cabinet and subcabinet appointments as well as domestic and international matters.

Kissinger in Key Advisory Role

By Martin Schram

Newsday Washington Bureau

New York—President-elect Nixon's new chief foreign policy adviser, Henry A. Kissinger, pledged yesterday to free U.S. policy planners from their prison of paperwork so they can get on with the job of long-range thinking.

Kissinger, formerly Gov. Rockefeller's foreign policy expert, told newsmen that he agreed with his new boss, Nixon, that the National Security Council must be overhauled so that it plays a greater role in shaping future U.S. policy.

"The major differences that I forsee in the operation of the National Security Council staff and the White House staff in Mr. Nixon's administration is that there will be much more emphasis on planning," Kissinger, a noted Harvard University foreign policy expert, said after being introduced by Nixon at a press conference here. "... The operating (administrative) functions will be pushed as far as possible into the departments," he said.

Despite his criticisms of present U.S. policy methods, Kissinger has played a unique private-citizen role for the Johnson administration. At one point he served as a quiet, unofficial messenger from President Johnson to Ho Chi Minh. And W. Averell Harriman, head of the U.S. delegation at the Paris talks on Vietnam, has kept Kissinger informed on all diplomatic maneuverings in the deliberations.

Kissinger urged in a recent essay that the "spasmodic" U.S. foreign policy, operating on a crisis-to-crisis basis be replaced by drawing a clear concept of this country's vital interests abroad. He suggested that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization be re-modeled, but left little hope for the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization and Central Treaty Organization.

During his days as Rockefeller's adviser, Kissinger, like Nixon, urged greater regional cooperation, and emphasized that this was especially necessary in Asia. And, like Nixon, he has warned that one of the legacies of Vietnam will be a reluctance to involve the U.S. in a similar situation, especially if solid regional support is lacking. But when a reporter noted that Kissinger has a reputation as a man with hard-line views on dealings with the Communist world, the professor replied: "I have tried to avoid labels like hard and soft. I find it very difficult to characterize myself."

Nixon noted that U.S. installations overseas funnel more communiques into Washington each day than all the world's daily newspapers and wire services combined. "Men in positions of responsibility and men who really have the ability to do creative thinking too often get bogged down in reading the interminable telegrams," Nixon said.

Nixon said that he has asked Kissinger to oversee a "complete reorganization and restructuring of the entire White House security planning machinery." The National Security Council was

Kosygin Seen Open
To Talk on Missiles

Washington (AP)—U.S. officials said yesterday that Soviet Premier Kosygin raised the topic of U.S.-Soviet missile-limitation talks during a recent Moscow meeting with World Bank President Robert S. McNamara.

The topic was raised also by the Russian government chief with Sen. Albert Gore (D-Genn.) and Sen. Claiborne Pell (D-R.I.) when the two Senate Foreign Relations Committee

mized reports that a Soviet-American summit session again is an active possibility. The report followed a national television interview Sunday with Secretary of State Rusk on the CBS program, "Face the Nation." In response to questions Rusk said that he would not want to rule out a meeting at the top level, but he added that there were no plans at the moment for such a meeting. This was interpreted as a hint that

currently employed by the federal government. Last night, a declined to comment on published charges that they are employed by the CIA. But a telephone operator at CIA headquarters gave away the secret: They have offices there.

The authors said that the heavily-footnoted 209-page book was entirely a private project that the federal government did not pay any of the costs of researching or printing, that all the information in the book came from available public documents and that no undocumented information was given in the book.

The Catholic magazine Commonweal, in its issue distributed yesterday, said in an editorial that the hiding of CIA affiliation of the book's authors indicates "last year's disclosures of CIA infiltration of allegedly private organizations did not serve to change these practices ..."

The failure of the authors to disclose their apparent CIA connections recalled a similar case in 1966, when George W. Carver, a CIA aide, wrote an article in the scholarly magazine Foreign Affairs, which supported the claim made by the Johnson Administration that the South Vietnamese National Liberation Front was a "contrived political mechanism" of the North Vietnamese Communists. Sen. J. William Fulbright (D-Ark), a long-time critic of the administration's war policies, publicly chided the CIA for allowing the article to appear without giving the connections of its author.

Yesterday, when the soft-spoken operator at CIA headquarters tried to connect a caller first with Hyland's then with Shryock's telephone, the cat already had been let out of the bag. Shryock was contacted at home, and when asked about a published report that the two men were CIA agents, he blurted: "We're not agents. That is a misnomer. We are scholars." He then paused and added softly, "But I cannot confirm or deny that report."

The question of the authors' governmental connections first came to light in the Commonweal editorial, which charged that the two men were employed by the CIA. The editorial's author, Jonathan Eisen, said that he became curious when he saw the book jacket, and when he telephoned the publishing firm, Funk and Wagnalls, the firm refused to identify the government agency where the two men worked. On a hunch, Eisen said, he telephoned Hyland at CIA headquarters in Washington during the day. Hyland answered the phone, Eisen said, and admitted that he was employed by the agency.

Both men strongly defended their independence in writing the concise, readable book which is heavy both in documentation and speculation. "The book represents nobody but Hyland and Shryock," Shryock said, adding, "We'll take the credit and the criticism for anything that's in it."

heavily relied on by President Eisenhower. But President Kennedy resorted to a smaller coterie of planners headed by McGeorge Bundy, and Johnson relied largely on Walt Rostow. Kissinger said that he hopes to keep the foreign policy planning staff at about 20, its present size.

Both Nixon and Kissinger contend that the problem with U.S. foreign policy planning is that the present planners must spend most of their time trying to cope with current crises, rather than setting up long-range plans. "It is vitally important to have planning procedures set up so that . . . we will have a contingency plan ready to go into effect," Nixon said.

Nixon also announced that Richard C. Allen, 32, his foreign policy adviser during the campaign, would serve as one of Kissinger's prime White House staff associates.

Nixon bid goodbye, meanwhile, to former Pennsylvania Gov. William Scranton who left last night on a 10-day fact-finding tour of the Mideast for the President-elect. Scranton will visit Iran, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the United Arab Republic, and Israel for Nixon. Scranton met with Nixon yesterday for about 15 minutes and later told reporters that Scranton just wants to get the Arab and Israeli views on world situations as well as in their own area.

Christensen, who has been flying B-52s most of the time since he entered the Air Force, went back for a third Vietnamese area tour in September, his brother said. He had been back in the U.S. for three months between his second and current tour, and had been assigned to Europe for six months between his first two tours.

East Hills—An unidentified man in his 30s was killed shortly before midnight last night after he was struck by an automobile on Glen Cove Road near Talley Road South.

Police said that a car operated by Miss Judith Ledzian, 19, of 11 Locust St., Glen Cove, and owned by her companion, Lawrence Breitfeld, 22, of 30 Jefferson St., New Hyde Park, was traveling northbound on Glen Cove Road when, according to Miss Ledzian, the unknown man suddenly appeared. Police said she told them that she did not have time to stop before striking the man. Police said that he carried no identification.

# Planning Element Stressed
For Nixon Foreign Policy

By JOHN J. FARMER

Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK —President-elect Richard M. Nixon plans to revamp the nation's foreign policy machinery, with a new emphasis on planning and on consultation with experts from other nations.

In the process, he hopes to shunt more of the day-to-day operations to the State Department, thus freeing his White House staff for “creative thinking.”

The man in charge of this new orientation will be Henry A. Kissinger, a Harvard government professor and a former foreign policy adviser to New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller.

Kissinger, exponent of a strong American position in Europe and a revitalized NATO, has criticized current U.S. policy abroad as “spasmodic” and dictated by unplanned responses to crises. Like Nixon, he favors more consultation with U.S. allies.

Kissinger, named by Nixon yesterday to be presidential assistant for national security affairs, will occupy the top foreign policy adviser post in the White House, a job now held by Walt W. Rostow.

Science Post

Nixon was also expected to add Dr. Lee A. DuBridge, president of the prestigious California Institute of Technology, to

day to his staff as his personal science adviser.

A physicist, the 67-year-old DuBridge has been president of Cal Tech since 1946. Over the years, he has been a member of many federal advisory bodies—especially during the administrations of Harry S. Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower.

After DuBridge met with Nixon last week, the scientist would neither confirm nor deny that he was in line for the full-time White House post, now occupied by Dr. Donald F. Hornig.

Nixon said Kissinger will not infringe on the policy prerogatives of the secretary of state—whom Nixon said he has not yet selected—but Kissinger is in a position to be the single strongest influence on the President-elect in this field.

“Mature Conception”

In his most recent paper, published by the Brookings Institution in Washington, Kissinger argued for “a mature conception of our interests in the world” and a recognition that the nation can no longer enforce “its preferred solution.”

“It is part of the American folklore,” Kissinger wrote, “that while other nations have interests, we have responsibilities; while other nations are concerned with equilibrium, we are concerned with the legal requirements for peace.”

As Rockefeller's adviser, Kissinger was credited with the

New York governor's call in July for a negotiated “dem Americanization” of the Vietnam war.

Kissinger will supervise the staff of the National Security Council in the White House. The NSC is the government's highest foreign policy planning agency.

In seeking to strengthen the council's planning functions, Nixon said, he will call not only on experts in this country but also “experts in foreign policy abroad, which will be a new departure.”

As an example, he cited Allstair Buchan, director of the London Institute for Strategic Studies, which keeps track of

the defense strength of major nations.

These foreign experts will not be paid, Nixon said. Kissinger said they would be experts and “intellectuals” not in government abroad.

“Chief Instruction”

“There are many friends of ours,” said Kissinger, “who feel that their fate is closely connected with ours, and who can make a major contribution. They have not been tapped in any systematic manner or on any official basis in the past.”

Kissinger said Nixon's “chief instruction” has been to make

certain the government's policy planning machinery "functions more effectively and presents to the President all the relevant contingencies and choices."

The goal, said Kissinger, will be to avoid devoting the entire NSC machinery to the solution of immediate problems, and "try to develop middle-term and long-range policy and contingency plans for foreseeable emergencies."

Nixon, illustrating Kissinger's point, said the daily cable traffic into Washington from American installations abroad now exceeds all the wire service and newspaper reports from around the globe."

Recalling his eight years as vice president, Nixon said he was troubled by "the fact that men in positions of responsibility and men who really have the ability to do creative thinking too often get bogged down in reading the interminable telegrams..."

Most of these documents, he said, prove "not really relevant to the problems they are concerned with..."

Nixon emphasized that Kissinger will not become "a wall between the secretary of state and the President."

Nixon said Kissinger is aware of the tension that can develop between the State Department and a White House adviser—a criticism frequently raised against McGeorge Bundy, adviser to Presidents Kennedy and Johnson, and against Rostow, Bundy's successor.

## All the Options

Kissinger said his function will be to see that when issues are raised "all of the options" are presented to the president.

"What this really involves,"

Nixon added, "is my concern that when great decisions have to be made over these years ahead, I am not presented with a paper that represents a consensus, the least common denominator of what the various departments are able to negotiate between themselves."

The State and Defense Departments frequently get into such confrontations, Nixon said, and the result is "a bland paper that really does not meet the problem..."

"I want to have the conflicts," Nixon said.

"The honest differences of opinion which we know do exist between departments, or within a department, I want laid before the National Security Council, and particularly before the President," Nixon went on, "so that he will know what the arguments are, so that he can make the determination as to what the policy should be."

Kissinger declined at a news conference yesterday to disclose his views of the Vietnam war or East-West relations.

However, the Rockefeller position paper, developed largely by Kissinger, called for a phased U.S. troup pullback to populated areas and finally a complete withdrawal as North Vietnamese forces withdraw, an international peace force moves in and free elections are held.

## Vietnam Priority

Nixon, who appeared at the press conference with Kissinger, said he believes Vietnam is "the most immediate and pressing problem."

Next, he said, is East-West relations and "the coming negotiations, if those negotiations do materialize, between the United States and the Soviet Union in a number of areas, including the

problems of national defense, the offensive and defensive missile discussions, and so forth."

Nixon has called repeatedly for more direct East-West summit meetings to resolve mutual problems.

Kissinger, who was born in Germany, came to this country in 1938 and became a naturalized citizen in 1943. He served in the Army Counter Intelligence Corps in World War II and received his education at Harvard.

He has written extensively on foreign policy, especially on

NATO and European affairs, and has been a familiar consultant to the State and Defense Departments and to foreign policy research agencies, such as the Rand Corp.

Kissinger will bring a large measure of continuity to the Nixon administration. Authors Stuary Loory and David Kraslow, in their book "The Secret Search for Peace in Vietnam," describe him as the best informed man outside of government on diplomatic efforts to bring the war to the conference table.
