DEMOCRATS IN DISARRAY

AFL-CIO President George Meany's charges last week that the Democrat Party has "disintegrated" and is being taken over by "extremists" of the Left is but the most recent in a series of pronouncements by prominent Democrats which illustrate what deep trouble the Democrat Party is in.

For example:

- Last year in an article in *LOOK* magazine, former JFK aide, Theodore Sorensen, labeled the Democrat Party "soft and stale," "a tired second-rate defender of the status quo" and warned against putting up an ideological wall "so high that only the inflexible purists of the so-called New Left would be eligible for entry."

- Iowa Sen. Harold Hughes, a key figure in the Democrat Party reform movement, has been quoted as saying: "The people of America as well as the Democrat Party need to know that the Democrat Party is in damn bad shape."

- In a speech to the Democrat National Committee last year, South Carolina Gov. Robert McNair noted that there was "grave apprehension" at the direction the Democrat Party was taking and warned: "I do not think our people are ready for a political party of extremism."

- Most recently, Minnesota Senator Walter Mondale confessed his Party is "in a mess" and maybe "we need to lose some elections until we see new directions."

What does all this mean? It means that some Democrats are beginning to sense their Party's irrelevance and are in the process of trying to put Humpty Dumpty back together again. But the people will not be fooled. Rank and file Democrats have not left their Party, their Party has left them. And all the law and order speeches by Hubert Humphrey and anti-radical talk by Senator George McGovern aren't going to do any good.

The average Democrat has had it with his Party's missiveness toward everything from big government spending to crime in the streets. He is fed up with those in his Party who have temporized with campus violence and naked Communist aggression in South-

east Asia. He is sick of those who have nothing but bad things to say about America.

Fortunately for the disaffected Democrat there is an alternative: the Republican Party. Our Party is the Party of hope. The Party that has not given up on America; the Party that still has a deep and abiding faith in this great nation and her institutions. To all those Democrats who simply cannot stomach their Party anymore we extend a hand and say come on over to our side.

'Come to Think of It—We Don't Have a Leader'

Top of the News... Monday, Sept. 7, 1970

MEANY SAYS DEMOCRAT PARTY HAS "DISINTEGRATED" -- BEING TAKEN OVER BY "EXTREMISTS." AFL-CIO President George Meany charged last week that the Democrat Party has "disintegrated" and is in danger of losing the support of its members because of a take over by "extremists." "The Democratic Party has disintegrated," said Meany, "it is not the so-called liberal party that it was a few years ago. It almost has got to be the party of extremists in so far as these so-called liberals or new lefts, or whatever you want to call them, have taken over the Democratic Party. As they take it over and as they move more and more to the left -- and I mean a way over to the left -- I think more and more are going to lose the support of our members..." On the economy, Meany said it is basically "sound"; on Vietnam, he said he agrees with President Nixon and thinks he "has a practical plan to get out." To a reporters question as to whether or not he has ever seen the Democrat Party in as desperate a shape as now, Meany replied: "No. Never..." The big question now is: Will Meany put his money where his mouth is and cut off labor support to ultra-liberal Democrat Senate and House candidates? The answer appears to be that he will not. The AFL-CIO's Committee on Political Education (COPE) tells MONDAY that they will continue to fund these people as they always have.

"END WAR AMENDMENT" DEFEATED 55-39; ADMINISTRATION VICTORIOUS. The Senate last week defeated the Hatfield-McGovern so-called "amendment to end the war" by an overwhelming 55-39. (Sen. Bob Dole of Kansas had called the measure the "amendment to lose the peace.") White House Press Secretary Ron Ziegler said that President Nixon interpreted the vote "as a solid vote of confidence in his policy of working toward peace in Vietnam." The amendment, changed so often it had become almost meaningless, sought to force the withdrawal of all U.S. troops from Vietnam by the end of next year but gave the President an option of a 60-day extension if he determined GI's were in "clear and present danger." Sources close to the debate over the amendment believe that Sen. George McGovern's emotional outburst charging every Senator in the Chamber with sending young Americans to their grave did a disservice to his cause and may well have prevented the anti-war forces from swinging the one Senator they needed to get their predicted 40 votes. (At one point McGovern said: "This Chamber reeks of blood.")

PRIMARIES HELD IN NEVADA, NORTH DAKOTA. MONDAY last week talked with the GOP state chairmen in Nevada and North Dakota and learned the following:

--Nevada. State Chairman George Abbott feels that our Senatorial candidate William Raggio's campaign "is really off the ground." Abbott notes that at this point in the campaign Raggio is further ahead of Demo incumbent Sen. Cannon than our candidate Paul Laxalt was at this point six years ago. Cannon beat Laxalt by only 48 votes. GOP registration in the state is up 9,000 from four years ago and the Demos are down 15,000. This could be significant in a state like Nevada where 75,000 votes will probably elect the next Senator.
**Election results:** for Senate, Raggio winner by 31-1; for Governor, Lt. Gov. Ed Fike, also by 31-1; for Congress, J. Robert Charles who'll have a tough fight against 16 year veteran Demo Walter Baring.

--North Dakota. State Chairman Jack Huss reports that "high interest" in 2nd District race for Congress good news for Republican Party in that state. **Election results:** for Senate, Tom Kleppe (unopposed) with about 55,000 votes; Demo incumbent Burdick (unopposed) with about 27,000; no Governor's race; for Congress, 1st District's Mark Andrews overwhelming winner, 40-1; real horse race in 2nd District with Richard Elkin unofficial winner over Robert McCarney by about 80 votes. Vote canvas being conducted, official results Sept. 15.
Primaries this week: Sept. 8, Ariz., Ark. (runoff), Colo., Fla., N.H., Utah, Vt., Wisc.; Sept. 9, Ga.

"HAVE NOT LOST FAITH IN U.S.," SAYS ISRAEL PRIME MINISTER. Despite the efforts of newsmen to elicit from her an answer to the contrary, Israel Prime Minister Golda Meir says that her country has "not lost faith in the United States government." Appearing on "Face the Nation," Mrs. Meir said: "I don't want to leave one question unanswered, because my not answering it may be misinterpreted. I want to say we have not lost faith in the United States government. The government certainly lost no faith in -- whatever was said by President Nixon -- I have no doubt whatsoever in his and his government's concern for the State of Israel, their desire to see that everything that is possible for the security of Israel should be forthcoming. Now, it's not a question of trust. It's a question of interpretation, what is good for Israel, what borders are good for Israel, what is needed for Israel for its security and so on. I didn't want that to be left unanswered."

BIG $PENDER
OF THE WEEK

(FIFTH IN A SERIES). A recent poll taken for GOP Senatorial candidate Andy Carter shows that inflation and big spending are the number one issues with the people of New Mexico and that most individuals blame the Democrats. This is bad news for Democrat Senator Joseph Montoya, one of the biggest spenders in the U.S. Senate.

Montoya has gone on record as favoring what he calls "real-
istic restrictions" on campaign expenditures by political
candidates. After looking over the Senator's own spending
record one wishes he would worry less about campaign expend-
itures and more about placing "realistic restrictions" on
the spending of incumbent U.S. Senators, like say himself.

For Sen. Montoya, when it comes to financing his legislative schemes, the taxpayer's money is no object. Since coming to the Senate in 1964, Montoya has introduced legislation which, if passed, would have totalled literally billions and billions of dollars.

An analysis of the bills introduced or co-sponsored by Montoya this Congress, the 91st, shows that had they passed, the lifetime costs of the legislation would be nearly $8 billion.

But most irresponsible of all is the fact that at least 38 of the bills introduced by the Senator contain open-ended spending authorizations for the first and succeeding fiscal years. If these bills were to pass it would mean the end of any type of budgetary stability. There would be no way to determine the Federal budget because the expenditure column would be a series of question marks.

The open-ended approach, as practiced by Sen. Montoya, is unfortunately all too frequent in the Democrat-controlled Congress. In at least one state, Wisconsin, the procedure is outlawed.

The ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL recently reported that a movie director had offered Sen. Montoya a bit part after seeing his photograph. With New Mexico's voters feeling the way they do about inflation and with the Senator's spending record being what it is the Senator would be wise not to turn down any offers because after the November elections Montoya will undoubtedly be without his present job and Andy Carter will be the new Senator from New Mexico.

**HOUSE BACK IN SESSION: MUCH WORK TO DO.** As the Democrat-controlled House comes back into session this week it faces a mountain of unacted on Nixon Administration legislation. House **GOP Leader Gerald Ford** says that of 100 major legislative requests made by the President since coming into office almost two years ago, the Congress has not yet taken final action on 56. Forty-four of the bills have yet to reach the House floor and deal with such subjects as: **organized crime**, **drug control**, **consumer protection** and the **environment**. "I do not suggest that this Congress should be a rubber stamp for the White House," said Ford. "But I do say we should **bring these measures to the floor** of the House and of the other body before election day. Let every legislator stand up and be counted for or against President Nixon's proposals. They should not be allowed to languish and die in Democrat-controlled committees while Democrat campaign orators berate President Nixon for lack of legislative results."

**FEDERAL MONEY FOR CORRECTIONS UP 30 TIMES OVER LAST YEAR.** In November of last year, President Nixon directed the Attorney General to mobilize Federal resources to improve corrections. This has been done. **Clarence M. Coster**, Associate Administrator of the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration (LEAA), has announced: "We have doubled the percentage of block action grant money which states have allocated for corrections. More important, we have raised the total of that amount from approximately $3 million in fiscal 1969 to approximately $50 million this year...approximately **30 times as much** as spent in fiscal 1969."

AGNEW PRAISES "THE SYSTEM"; CALLS FOR MUTUAL RESPECT, FORBEARANCE. Praising the American system as the "greatest engine of change and progress the world has ever seen," Vice President Agnew spoke to the American Legion's National Convention in Portland, Oregon, last week and thanked them for their support of the Nixon Administration. "The system -- our democratic system, here in America," said Agnew, "is not a something-for-nothing machine. It requires that each of us contribute. Its base is not government. Its base is the people. Its great strength is not the great strength of government, but the strength of the people." Speaking of domestic violence, the Vice President warned that confronted with a choice, the American people will choose the policeman's truncheon over the anarchist's bomb. "But true peace," he said, "lies neither in the bomb nor truncheon. It lies in the pattern of mutual respect and mutual forbearance that is the essence of a civilized society. That pattern is what has to be strengthened and maintained."

POLL, POLL...WHO'S GOT THE POLL? Once in July and again in August, Democrat Sen. Stephen M. Young took to the floor of the Senate and spoke of what he called a "Gallup poll or survey" allegedly taken for the U.S. military command in Saigon and then suppressed by Ambassador Bunker and top U.S. Army officials. The poll, mentioned on an ABC television documentary, was supposed to show 65 percent of the people of South Vietnam wanting all Americans out of their country. Sen. McGovern of South Dakota also mentioned the poll on a nationally televised news show. While it's true that the military command in Saigon does conduct polls of this nature, the results of which are never made public, MONDAY can state unequivocally that a poll of this type has not been taken and the information leaked to ABC was either a total fabrication or a gross distortion. The only poll even close to this subject has been a regional poll of some 800 South Vietnamese which showed that of the 65 percent who said they understood the Nixon Administration's policy of phased withdrawal, 68 percent favored it.

First fighting men--more than 125,000 to date--and now equipment and supplies, are being returned from Southeast Asia as a result of President Nixon's Vietnamization policies. Robert Kunzig, head of G.S.A., led Federal and military officials recently in welcoming back to the U.S. the first full shipload of excess goods to be returned as a result of reduced operations in Southeast Asia. The $6.5 million cargo, including items ranging from diesel engines and truck tires to medical refrigerators and surgeon's gloves, will be available for donation to hospitals and schools in every state. Participating with Kunzig were Dr. Theodore Marrs, Deputy Asst. Secretary of Defense; James Farmer, Asst. Secretary of HEW, and Dr. Benjamin Wells, Deputy Chief Medical Director of the V.A.

POLITICAL POTPOURRI

Republicans in the Senate are unhappy over the increasing probability of a *post-election session*. With less than two months until elections, the 21 incumbent Democrats up for re-election are champing at the bit to get out and campaign despite the fact that there is much work to do in the Senate. Senate Majority Leader Mansfield seems resigned to such a session. One big fear is the chaos that could result from having perhaps as many as 15 or more *lame duck Senators*, who represent no one, voting on important legislation. "All things considered," said one GOP Senate aide, "it would be a bad scene"...V.P. Agnew speaks Tuesday at the Overseas Press Club in NYC; Wednesday, Mrs. Virginia Knauer before Women's Forum of DALLAS TIMES-HERALD in Big D; Lab. Sec. Hodgson talks to Ship Builders Council in Washington, D.C.; RNC Chmn Morton at fund-raiser in Huron, S.D.; Thursday, Herb Klein, Bob Finch, Leonard Garment and John Mitchell on Dick Cavett Show; Int. Sec. Hickel at Wild Rivers Symposium, St. Paul, Minn.; Chmn Morton again at fund-raiser, Springfield, Mo.; Saturday, Ag. Sec. Hardin at Nat'l Plowing Matches, Versailles, Ohio...Remember the ABM that wouldn't work? Last week it did. The Pentagon reported the first successful test of its Safeguard anti-missile system in which a Spartan missile intercepted an incoming missile above the earth's atmosphere.

The Campaign Trail: Tennessee's Sen. Albert Gore trying to moderate his anti-war image by voting against Hatfield-McGovern Amendment calling for unilateral withdrawal from Vietnam. AFL-CIO's COPE Memo says Gore's narrow primary victory (51 percent) "too close for comfort" and that he faces "stiff battle" against Bill Brock...In Indiana, surveys by both Republicans and Democrats show GOP Senatorial candidate Richard Roudebush breathing down the neck of incumbent Sen. Hartke. This is bad news for Hartke because at this stage of the game his name recognition state-wide is better than Roudebush's yet Roudebush is almost even with him...In Utah, GOP Senate candidate Laurence Burton coming on so strong Dem. incumbent, Frank Moss, cancels several thousand dollars worth of billboard advertising and puts the money into TV...St. Louis POST-DISPATCH quotes Rep. Jim Symington as saying: "You've got to see that you keep our father (Sen. Stuart Symington) elected, because if he is defeated, this means that the rest of us are going to have to go back to work"...1968 book on the Presidential campaign entitled "An American Melodrama" quotes (p.396) Democrat Senatorial candidate in Connecticut, Rev. Joseph Duffey, as saying: "I guess you could call me a sort of revisionist Marxist, but certainly I had very little sympathy with the Maoists"...Former Maine Democrat State Senator Frank Norris withdraws as independent candidate for the Senate and throws his support to GOP candidate, Neil S. Bishop. Norris says Sen. Ed Muskie has been "coddling the softheads at the expense of the hard hats"...Massachusetts Poll shows GOP Gov. Francis Sargent as the most popular political figure running in the state this year. Seventy-one percent of those who plan to vote say they'll vote for Sargent; Sen. Kennedy seven points behind with 64 percent.

In his soon-to-be released book, "The Conscience of a Majority," Prentice-Hall, $7.95, Sen. Barry Goldwater traces the history of polarization politics and finds it leading back to, surprise, FDR. Says Goldwater: "Interestingly enough, the word 'polarization' seldom was heard in American political discussions prior to the inception of the Republican Nixon Administration. And it seems to have been promoted with special vigor since the President called attention to the Silent Majority and Vice President Agnew began giving voice to some of the majority's pet peeves. It will be recalled by those who remember the early days of the New Deal that the liberal community in this country virtually invented the concept of polarization. The entire political approach of the Roosevelt Administration in those days was based on polarizing the attitudes of the so-called 'have nots' against the so-called 'haves.'...The persons of wealth were called 'Bourbons' and 'Economic Royalists' and otherwise characterized in a fashion calculated to engender the dislike if not actually the hatred of the so-called 'have nots.'"

ADV FOR WEEKEND SEPT. 5-6, 1970

BY HELEN THOMAS

SAN CLEMENTE, CALIF. (UPI)--PRESIDENT NIXONS NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER HENRY A. KISSINGER IS MAKING LIK A MOVIE STAR.

KISSINGER HAS TAKEN TIME OUT OF HIS STEADY CONCENTRATION ON WORLD AFFAIRS, TO EMOTE FOR THE TV CAMERAS. HE WILL BE THE STAR OF THE CBS SHOW "60 SECONDS" SOMETIMES IN SEPTEMBER.

THE WITTY FOREIGN POLICY ADVISER QUIPS THAT HE HOPES THE PROGRAM IS SHOWN BEFORE IT IS "CENSORED" BY ATTORNEY GENERAL MITCHELL.

MUCH OF THE FILMING HAS BEEN DONE AT THE WESTERN WHITE HOUSE. HIS TWO CHILDREN, ELIZABETH, 11 AND DAVID, 9, AN ARDENT ARTIST WHO DREW A "MOON" PICTURE FOR PRESIDENT NIXON, ALSO ARE IN THE SHOW.

KISSINGER AND HIS CURLY-HAIRED YOUNGSTERS WERE FILMED AT DISNEYLAND. THE TV CAMERAS ALSO WENT TO MEXICO WITH KISSINGER AND FOCUSED ON HIM WHILE HE WAS SWIMMING.

HE EXTRACTED A PROMISE FROM THE PRODUCERS NOT TO FOLLOW HIM AROUND SOCIALLY ON THE WEST COAST WHERE HE HAS SOME GOOD LOOKING FEMALE FRIENDS--AS HE DOES IN WASHINGTON.

HE ALSO IS "TENDER" ON THE SUBJECT OF HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS FORMER HARVARD UNIVERSITY COLLEAGUES, ACCORDING TO AN INFORMED SOURCE.

ON THAT SCORE, KISSINGER SAYS HE STILL HASN'T MADE UP HIS MIND WHETHER HE WILL RETURN TO TEACHING AT HARVARD. HE HAS UNTIL FEBRUARY TO DECIDE.

THE CBS PRODUCTION WILL BE KISSINGERS SECOND TELEVISION PERFORMANCE. HE SUBMITTED TO A SIMILAR PROGRAM LAST YEAR WITH A FRENCH TV PRODUCER WHO MANAGED TO GET HIM TO POSE AND BE INTERVIEWED IN THE TOP SECRET 24-HOUR SITUATION ROOM AT THE WHITE HOUSE.

FOR A LONG TIME KISSINGER WOULD QUIP THAT HE DID NOT WANT TO APPEAR ON TELEVISION BECAUSE OF HIS THICK GERMAN ACCENT.

HIS ROLE IS NOT ONE THAT THE WHITE HOUSE PARTICULARLY WANTS TO EXPOSE.

HOWEVER, HIS LATEST INTERVIEWERS SCORED A COUP WHEN THEY FILMED HIM SPEAKING AS THE "HIGH LEVEL ADMINISTRATION" SOURCE AT A BACKGROUND BRIEFING FOR WESTERN NEWSPAPER EXECUTIVES.

REPORTERS WERE NOT PERMITTED TO IDENTIFY THE SOURCE OF THE BACKGROUNDER.

left anything to be desired. The walls were lined with congratulatory telegrams, the phone constantly ringing, a contract for a Broadway play awaited her signature, she had just launched her own cosmetic company, is the author of a new book being published by Doubleday . . . all this and loneliness? It just didn't make sense.

"All this is what scares men away," she said. "Many men are now afraid of me. They think I'm too expensive. Or that there are too many men, so why bother? My

success is ruining my personal life.

"I am grateful, believe me, for the success of my career," Zsa Zsa said. "It has never been so marvelous, with everything coming my way—except what any real woman wants most—being in love!"

"It's being without love that's wrong. I miss the close companionship—having someone I love to confide in, talk things over with, advise me. Not being in love is really having nothing."

"A man I love is always first in my life. I would make any sacrifice. Right now I'm not in love with a man and it's terrible!" She sighed. "It's heartbreaking," she concluded.

Then she smiled. "But every woman should have one date with Henry Kissinger. (Her headlined romance with President Nixon's advisor was one she thoroughly enjoyed.) He is so knowledgeable, so charming. It's like having a college major in government. He knows everyone and everything. The White House will call him as many as three times in an evening." Then, dropping her eyes, she added a soft "no, he is not to be my new love."

As for those famous Gaborisms that trip so easily off her tongue— don't for a moment believe that they reveal her true feelings. Such witticisms as, "I am a vunderful housekeeper. Effry time I get a divorce I keep the house" or "I always give back the engagement ring. I just keep the stone," may symbolize the public Zsa Zsa, but they are not really her at all! It is her way of having fun with words, while shrewdly creating an image that is widely in demand in show business.

The real Zsa Zsa confides, "I find now that I am employed and 100% self-supporting, men suddenly are a little afraid of me. It is terrible to be in this situation. A woman needs the inspiration of love. I suddenly find myself watching myself on television—because I am on one talk show or another— every night. But how long can I sit looking at myself on television? I get bored. And my telephone is unlisted."

"The men I do see are very dear, but I'm afraid too many men are opportunists. My instinct tells me

# Mike Wallace Scores Coup With Kissinger Talk

By JUDITH BACHRACH

Mike Wallace scored a nice little coup Tuesday night. Mike Wallace is always scoring nice little coups—who will ever forget his interviews with Medina and Cleaver? But on 60 Minutes, he had an interview with Dr. Henry Kissinger, who like most members of the Nixon staff had heretofore taken the vow of silence.

Wallace didn't do as much as he could have with the material: the presentation was far too superficial and he did not delve deeply enough into the personality and philosophy of Kissinger. The only thing we managed to gather was that he was a sympathetic and intelligent liberal. But there was no mention of how he manages to reconcile his personal beliefs with the Nixon ideology.

Perhaps 20 minutes is too short a time in which to sketch a profile, but it seems that part of it could have been used for something other than gossipy tidbits on whether the assistant to the President for national security affairs is or is not "a swinger."

However, any kind of behind-the-scenes coverage of Nixon aides is a welcome departure from the hush-hush policy that seems to prevail over everyone but Agnew.

"Anonymity has been the watchword of this administration," Mr. Wallace acknowledged in a recent interview. "There is no doubt that Mr. Nixon assented to this feature because he finally realized what an attractive, articulate, interesting man he had on his hands. He's an immense political asset."

Wallace admitted he got the interview because of a promise he managed to wrench out of Kissinger two years ago. "I said if the President ever does let up on his policy, will you let me be the first to interview you. He said yes then, and kept his word."

## Most Profound

Although the Kissinger scoop was the most sensational portion of the program, the most profound was Harry Reasonar's Seven Years after Medgar Evers. Mr. Reasoner is probably the best writer of all the network correspondents. Certainly, he seems to have the best grasp of what goes on beneath the surface event. His is a more analytical nature than Wallace's and his

EDWARD G. ROBINSON

remarkable insight into the phenomenon of human nature heightened the viewer's understanding of this particular political assassination.

Mr. Reasoner brought us back to the bygone days of the civil rights movement when

things seemed somehow so much simpler than they do now, when villains were far easier to pick out and militancy was the prerogative of white Southern bigots. He introduced us to the citizens of Jackson, Miss., black and white, most of whom are still unwilling to stir up old trouble, who still pack guns, still wallow in old fear of violence to come.

Most interesting were the interviews with friends of the accused murderer, Byron De La Beckwith ("If you was to see him, you would say you'd never met a nicer feller"), who was twice tried by an all-white jury and still remains unconvicted. But where Reasoner really showed his skill was in the description where Reasoner really showed his skill was in the description of Greenwood, Miss., the town where Beckwith now resides. There he evoked the soul of the South through a remarkable combination of revelatory footage and eloquent narration: the gun stores, the juxtaposition of white affluence and black poverty, the nostalgic charm of small-town life, and the disquieting violence that

bubbles beneath the thin layer of polished serenity.

# Kissinger Briefings
## Denied to Senators

Sen. Clifford P. Case (R-N.J.) yesterday released an exchange of letters with Henry A. Kissinger, assistant to the President for National Security Affairs, in which Case sought and was refused access to background briefings for newsmen.

The release followed discussion of the issue in the televised hearings held yesterday by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on the bombing raids into North Vietnam and the U.S. attempt to rescue prisoners of war.

Case and Sen. Claiborne Pell (D-R.I.) asked Secretary of Defense Melvin R. Laird why material made available for newsmen was denied to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

Laird said he would look into the matter but added: "I would be surprised if information is given to the press that is not being given to Congress."

Case, in a letter dated Oct. 14, asked Kissinger for the

complete texts of his background sessions for the press. In these, Kissinger's words can usually be attributed to "administration officials." He said the "White House backgrounder seems to have become about the best source for keeping track of the general thrust of American foreign policy."

Case said that he found it "disappointing" that he was forced to read a "distilled" version in the press while copies went to the press and to embassies all over the world.

Kissinger replied that while he was "flattered" by the value Case imputed to these sessions he believed their informality could be "best preserved by adhering to the current arrangements." This meant no copies for the senators.

Committee sources said the Foreign Relations Committee had sought and were refused copies by the State Department and that those it did get came from "friendly newsmen."

# U.S. Said to Plan Cautious Policy on Marxist-Led Chile

By TAD SZULC
Special to The New York Times

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25—

While President Nixon reportedly reacted with dismay to the emergence in Chile of a regime headed by a Marxist, he is said to have approved for the time being a policy toward it of patience and diplomatic correctness.

This decision, according to high Administration sources, was made as a result of a review of the Chilean situation conducted at the White House earlier this month under Mr. Nixon's chairmanship.

The meeting was held after Charles A. Meyer, the Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs, returned from Santiago, where he represented Mr. Nixon at the inauguration of Dr. Salvador Allende Gossens as President of Chile on Nov. 3. Mr. Meyer conferred with Dr. Allende before he left Chile.

According to authoritative informants, Mr. Nixon told his advisers he was deeply concerned over the election of a Marxist President in Chile and the presence of three Communist ministers in the Cabinet. He is reported to have suggested that he would personally favor a harsh attitude toward the Allende regime.

## Milder View Accepted

But, official informants said, Mr. Nixon came to accept the view that in the absence of specific provocation against the United States by Dr. Allende, tough policies could only lead Chileans to rally around their new President for nationalist reasons and cause other Latin Americans to close ranks behind Chile in a show of continental solidarity.

As it is, in the view of many in the diplomatic community here, the over-all relationship between the United States and Latin America is probably at its lowest point since just before President John F. Kennedy launched his Alliance for Progress in 1961.

Both Peru and Bolivia have for some years followed policies with strong leftist, or populist, and anti-United States overtones. Extreme leftist urban guerrillas in several countries have kidnapped United States diplomats, two of whom were killed. These guerrillas have helped to radicalize the university youth.

## Ties With Brazil Strained

Black power groups in the new Caribbean states are openly anti-United States. Relations with Brazil have been tense because the United States disapproves of the authoritative methods of the Brazilian military regime.

Elsewhere in Latin America there is a craving for economic and political independence and disenchantment over the results of the programs of the Alliance for Progress, a group formed by the United States with all the other countries of the Organization of American States except Cuba, to seek to alleviate the economic and social problems of Latin America.

Elsewhere in Latin American—in Peru and Bolivia in particular—there is a craving for economic and political independence and a disenchantment over the results of the programs of the Alliance for Progress. This is an effort to spur the economic and social development of Latin America through domestic reforms, self-help projects and large United States assistance. Cuba does not participate in it.

More recently, there has been resentment over increasingly restrictive United States trade policies. There is also fear that Washington soon may abandon the International Coffee Agreement, which through United States participation had assured the stability of the coffee trade over the years.

There is disappointment over the functioning of the Organization of American States, considered by many Latin American groups to be an instrument of Washington policy.

## Split in O.A.S. Feared

From another viewpoint, United States officials are concerned that with Chile's new regime represented in the O.A.S., the organization may become split between those governments prepared to go on following Washington's leadership and those favoring the positions taken by the Chileans.

One knowledgeable United States official comments, "A new revolutionary phase — more subtle, more sophisticated and, therefore, more dangerous in the long run than Cuba—is taking shape in Latin America."

The advice that prevailed at the White House meeting—that the United States should avoid a tough stance under present circumstances — was reported to have come primarily from the State Department with the general concurrence of the Defense Department and the Central Intelligence Agency.

A harder line was reportedly advocated by some of Mr. Nixon's White House assistants as well as by the United States Ambassador to Chile, Edward M. Korry. Mr. Korry's recent cabled dispatches from Santiago, known around the State Department as "korrygrams," were said to have depicted a grim Marxist future for Chile under President Allende.

In the course of numerous discussions of the Chilean situation throughout the Government in recent weeks, a harsh stance was also reportedly urged by Frank J. Shakespeare Jr., director of the United States Information Agency.

An important consideration in adopting the present policy, while the Administration goes on scrutinizing every move of the Allende regime, was said to be a realization that the leverage the United States is capable of applying to Chile is extremely limited.

Military intervention to oust the Allende regime was never considered here, for practical

# Corrosion of Latin Ties Stirs Alarm

By Jack Anderson

The corrosion of U.S. relations with Latin America is stirring deep alarm in the policy councils of Washington.

While President Nixon has been preoccupied with the Far and Middle East, trouble has been breaking out all over Latin America.

President Salvador Allende, the mild Marxist of the Andes, has already started to turn Chile into a revolutionary base. Bolivia and Peru, following Chile's example, are preparing to recognize Communist Cuba. Peru's military junta has gained Latin-American acclaim by tweaking Uncle Sam's beard. A new class of young, anti-U.S. military officers is rising throughout Latin America.

President Nixon, meanwhile, has paid absolutely no attention to the urgent recommendations of New York's Gov. Nelson Rockefeller who was sent with fanfare on fact-finding forays into Latin America. Diplomats are saying that Richard Nixon may go down in history as the President who lost Latin America.

The House subcommittee that deals with Latin-American affairs is preparing to investigate. The State Department, however, has failed to keep the committee informed.

Chairman Dante Fascell (D-Fla.) has complained to State Department officials that he has to read the newspapers to

find out what's going on in Latin America. It is "ridiculous," he told them sharply, to keep Congress in the dark. The problems are too urgent.

Chile's Conversion

Probably the most urgent is the turn of events in Chile. President Allende, despite his outward mildness, is moving down the path toward militant Marxism. He has started to establish an internal security system that will keep every neighborhood under surveillance in the classic Communist pattern. The Communist Party, revolutionary groups and leftist unions presumably will furnish the cadres.

Allende has also opened Chile to revolutionaries from neighboring nations and has turned home-grown terrorists loose from prison. He has offered to provide them with training bases and financial support to spread subversion throughout South America. His own daughter, Beatriz, reportedly has received guerrilla training in Cuba.

Allende has put the U.S. on notice, meanwhile, that he wants no interference with his plans. He told Assistant State Secretary Charles Meyer, who attended the Allende inauguration, that he is willing to continue friendly relations with the U.S. so long as no effort is made to divert him from his Marxist goals.

President Nixon has shown

more concern personally over the Soviet submarine-base construction at Cienfuegos on the south Cuban coast.

Nixon expressed his concern to Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko during their recent White House meeting. The President's national security aide, Henry Kissinger, paid a follow-up call on Gromyko in New York. There were additional talks between Kissinger and Soviet Ambassador Anatoly Dobrynin.

Out of these discussions came a Soviet pledge not to build a submarine base at Cienfuegos. The construction thereafter appeared to have stopped. However, facilities have already been completed that can provide Soviet missile subs with all the services and supplies they require. Even a soccer field has been built to give Russian crews the recreation they need after weeks in cramped quarters under the ocean.

Naval intelligence has reported that Soviet missile subs are already operating in the Caribbean. They are less sophisticated than America's Polaris and Poseidon submarines. To become effective in the Caribbean, therefore, the Soviet subs need a service stop.

The Onassises: Radically chic

Headwaiters all over the world have learned to recognize **Aristotle** and **Jacqueline Onassis** by the resplendence of their dress. But garbed as they were on a recent stroll in Capri, even the famous couple might have had trouble getting past some doormen. Onassis wore pants baggy enough for two wealthy Greek gentlemen his size. And Jackie seemed to have a touch of the gypsy about her in sandals, tentlike skirt and a fringed garment that, even Women's Wear Daily might be at a loss to describe.

After defeat at the polls drove him into retirement last June, former British Foreign Secretary **George Brown** was awarded the consolation prize his country provides for its pastured politicians: a life peerage. But his problems, though less momentous perhaps than at the Ministry, did not end. For one thing, there was already a Lord Brown in the House of Lords. For another, he wanted to make sure that he didn't become just one more Brown, but **George Brown**. So last week he went to court and hyphenated himself. From now on, he will be known as Lord George-Brown. As one old friend said: "He always wanted to remain just plain George Brown."

Wearing a little more hair than usual, **David Eisenhower** was also worrying a little more than usual as he prepared to enter Naval Officer Candidate School in Newport, R.I. "I understand the Navy is letting people wear beards and everything," he said. "But I'll probably end up with an armful of shots and no hair." For her own part, his wife, **Julie Eisenhower**, was worrying about the midi. "It just makes people short and stubby," she said. "Look at Princess Margaret. She's

been criticized for wearing one, and they're right. She just doesn't look good in it. She's too heavy. Even my sister Tricia, who's slim, can't wear it because she's too short."

In Japan, the *Fukasogi no gi* ceremony marks a child's passage from babyhood. Last week, **Prince Aya**, 5, grandson of Emperor Hirohito and second son of Crown Prince Akihito, stood on a go board and, looking properly aware of the significance of the occasion, prepared for the traditional jump into boyhood.

A mixed bag of houseguests arrived last week at the secluded Algiers villa of fugitive Black Panther leader **Eldridge Cleaver**. They were: Dr. **Timothy Leary**, who escaped Sept. 13 from his six-months-to十-years drug sentence at the minimum-security prison in San Luis Obispo, Calif.; Leary's wife, Rosemary; and the Weatherman's **Bernardine Dohrn**, one of three women on the FBI's Most Wanted list (on charges of fomenting riot and possession of explosives). But the Algerian Government, normally quick to grant asylum to other countries' left-wing fugitives, seemed abnormally slow in publicizing these. In fact, the government abruptly canceled a press conference Cleaver had set up for Leary and Miss Dohrn. The reason, specialists theorize, is that Algerian officials take a dim view of drugs and an even dimmer view of the kind of stir terrorist Dohrn could raise on Algeria's currently placid campuses.

**Henry Kissinger's** idea of a good time is working sixteen hours a day in the White House West Wing over some thorny issue of foreign policy. Occasionally, however, he has other ideas. One such is perennial starlet **Jill St. John**, and last week the divorced Presidential aide turned up in Los Angeles for a night out with Jill. But next day the ex-Harvard professor who japes at himself as

UPI

Prince Aya: Jumpsuit

Washington's "secret swinger" was back in the White House West Wing with his one true love: U.S. foreign policy.

For a journalist there is no substitute for on-scene reporting, and sometime journalist **Truman Capote** was nothing if not on-scene last week as he served two days in jail for contempt of court. The 46-year-old author, who spent months on Death Row interviewing two murderers for his 1966 best seller, "In Cold Blood," had failed to answer a subpoena from the San Diego County, Calif., District Attorney's Office. The court had wanted his testimony about an interview he had with the defendant in another murder case. Four months after the subpoena, Capote finally showed up in court. "I didn't realize it was so important, and I apologize," he said. "In my eyes that is plain old contempt of court," said the judge. Capote was given a private cell, no work assignments and permitted to read, watch TV and talk to other prisoners. Nevertheless, said one jailer, "He didn't seem very happy."

When the lights went up for intermission at a Sunday matinee performance of the New York City Center Joffrey Ballet, the autograph-hunters descended. Their prey: the couple in Row G, a forceful young gentleman named Jason Gould and his mother **Barbra Streisand**. The actress politely refused the requests, ignored the gawking. Not Jason. The son of Miss Streisand's estranged husband, Elliott Gould, grew increasingly restive at the interruptions. Finally, when a contemporary, a girl of 6, began to impromptu, Jason, 3½, rose to his feet and firmly declared: "No autographs toda-a-ay, no autographs toda-a-ay."

KISSINGER-KIDNAP

WASHINGTON (AP)-AT LEAST ONE MEMBER OF PRESIDENT NIXON'S TOP WHITE HOUSE STAFF HAS QUIETLY BEEN GIVEN SECRET SERVICE PROTECTION--PRESUMABLY TO GUARD AGAINST ANY POSSIBLE KIDNAP ATTEMPT.

DR. HENRY A. KISSINGER, NIXON'S ASSISTANT FOR NATIONAL SECURITY AFFAIRS, HAS HAD A SECRET SERVICE BODY GUARD FOR MORE THAN A MONTH, IT WAS LEARNED TUESDAY.

JUST LAST WEEK, DIRECTOR J. EDGAR HOOVER OF THE FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION TOLD A SENATE APPROPRIATIONS SUBCOMMITTEE THAT A MILITANT ANTIWAR GROUP WAS PLOTTING TO KIDNAP A WHITE HOUSE AIDE OR OTHER PUBLIC OFFICIAL.

"THE PLOTTERS," HE SAID, "ARE CONCOCTING A SCHEME TO KIDNAP A HIGHLY PLACED GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL. THE NAME OF A WHITE HOUSE STAFF MEMBER HAS BEEN MENTIONED AS A POSSIBLE VICTIM."

NEITHER HOOVER NOR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL HAS, THEN OR SINCE, IDENTIFIED THE WHITE HOUSE AIDE REFERRED TO BY THE FBI CHIEF.

HOWEVER, THE FACT THAT KISSINGER HAS BEEN FURNISHED WITH AN EXTRAORDINARY FEDERAL BODYGUARD WAS SEEN AS A STRONG INDICATION THAT THERE ARE GENUINE FEARS WITHIN GOVERNMENT THAT HE MIGHT BE A KIDNAP TARGET.

KISSINGER PROBABLY CARRIES IN HIS HEAD MORE SENSITIVE SECURITY SECRETS THAN ANY OTHER MAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE, PERHAPS EVEN INCLUDING THE PRESIDENT.

WASH--ADD KISSINGER-KIDNAP (89)

PRESS SECRETARY RONALD L. ZIEGLER WAS ASKED IF ANY OTHER MEMBERS OF NIXON'S STAFF HAD BEEN GIVEN SECRET SERVICE PROTECTION. HIS REPLY:

"I CAN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THAT, FOR OBVIOUS REASONS."

IT WAS WIDELY REPORTED LAST MONTH, WHEN KISSINGER WENT TO THE SOVIET MISSION TO THE UNITED NATIONS IN NEW YORK FOR MEETINGS WITH SOVIET FOREIGN MINISTER ANDREI GROMYKO AND AMBASSADOR ANATOLIY DOBRININ THAT HE WAS ACCOMPANIED BY A SECRET SERVICE AGENT.

KISSINGER HAS BEEN SEEN WITH AN AGENT DOGGING HIS FOOTSTEPS ON A NUMBER OF OCCASIONS SINCE THEM.

SINCE THE SECRET SERVICE NORMALLY DOES NOT ACCORD PERSONAL PROTECTION TO MEMBERS OF THE PRESIDENT'S STAFF, IT WAS BELIEVED NIXON HIMSELF MUST HAVE DIRECTED THE POSTING OF THE KISSINGER BODYGUARD.

HOOVER'S TESTIMONY ABOUT A KIDNAP PLOT SAID THAT, "IF SUCCESSFUL, THE PLOTTERS WOULD DEMAND AN END TO THE UNITED STATES BOMBING OPERATIONS IN SOUTHEAST ASIA AND THE RELEASE OF ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS AS RANSON."

vestigation's findings, "appropriate action will be taken."

Precisely what happened Nov. 23 on the cold, wet Massachusetts is clear, but the fire begins with a New Bedroom fire. What their origin is, however, is not known.

Developed differently, presumably meaning that Simas would not have been turned back.

But McCloskey acknowledged that no instructions on that possibility were given to the Coast Guard in the first two calls, nor are there any standing instructions for such situations. When the investigation is completed, procedures will be promptly instituted to prevent a reoccurrence of such an incident," he said.

He also admitted to the investigation holes in the guardhouse, for which he was not prepared.

"I do not approve the use of force on a Coast Guard ship by personnel of another nation," Vender said, "but do recognize considerable force used, as the defec-

tation is not yet clearly established whether he took the proper action. I believe it to be understood how he (Ellis) would make this decision on the existing circumstances," Vender said.

dant Chester R. Vender said the decision to return Simas "by force if necessary" was made by the Coast Guard commander of the 1st District in Boston, Rear Adm. William B. Ellis.

"While it is not yet clearly established whether he took the proper action. I believe it to be understood how he (Ellis) would make this decision on the existing circumstances," Vender said.

For the first time in the week-old matter that has produced demonstrations in New York and elsewhere, Vender said the Soviet captain had alleged that Simas was a thief. This, as well as the Soviet ship's presence by invitation on a peaceful mission, were cited by Vender to explain Ellis' decision.
