Until tbe Castro government suddenly Kennedy to criticize the administration's handling of Cuban and Haitian refugees. Congressional reaction to the Cuban boatlift has been muted and low-key, with many lawmakers saying that the United States despite its heritage as a place of refuge for immigrants -doesn't have room for all the Cubans who might come. Typical was a statement by Sen.

J. Bennett Johnston, who said, we simply cannot open our doors to Court Cuts Grounds For Lawyer Conflict NATO Aid To Defend By DOUG HARBRECHT Press Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON The U.S. Supreme Court has narrowed the grounds on which codefendants in a single crime can charge conflict of interest against their attorney. The Supreme Court ruled 7-2 yesterday that the possibility of a conflict of interest against the lawyer is not enough to overturn a conviction. Rather, the defendant must prove that the conflict of interest imperiled his right to a fair trial, the court ruled.

The court set the new rule in tbe 1967 first degree murder conviction of John Sullivan, who was sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of a Philadelphia Teamsters Union official and his female companion. Sullivan's two codefendants in the murder were later acquitted of the same charges in separate trials. All three codefendants were represented by the same two attorneys. Sullivan's legal fees were paid by the two codefendants because he couldn't afford his own attorney. However, that arrangement, Sullivan contended, resulted in a poor defense in which he was never called to testify.

He also argued that his attorneys refused to allow vital witnesses to testify on his behalf so that they could be used in the trials of his codefendants. Sullivan appealed his Common Pleas Court conviction to the Federal Third Circuit Court of Appeals, which reversed the decision on the grounds that Sullivan's Sixth Amendment right to effective assistance of counsel had been violated. The federal appeals court ruled that LlJsAiAmSlJ: threw open tbe doors to a do-it-yourself boat shuttle to Key West, Fla tbe administration bad planned on a ceiling of 231,700 refugees, about 180,009 of them Indochinese and the rest Soviet Jews, Kurds and 19,500 Cubans. But the number of Cubans coming through Key West is approaching 40,000, and Palmieri estimates a total of 60,000 by the end of May. Palmieri testified yesterday before a Senate immigration subcommittee chaired by Sen.

Arms Leader To Security dress tbe local chapter at the Hilton Hotel. Tbe association believes is world disarmament, enforced by a stronger United Nations.

Each country should only have enough weaponry for internal policing, federalists believe. Tbe United States, said Price, has taken a detour since the Kennedy administration, when the goal of worldwide disarmament was endorsed and treaty negotiations began. That goal took the. back seat while Vietnam escalated and has been further sabotaged by the military industrial complex's attempts to fuel the arms race in order to save itself, he said. Under President Jimmy Carter, the nation turned down a SALT II proposal to ban all new missile systems, a proposal which would have cost the Russians five missile systems and the Americans one.

Price said. He also criticized America's refusal to discuss with the Russians a mutual withdrawal of forces in Europe. But Price was pleased that Carter favored SALT II which he called the first agreement which would "really cut down" on the Russians' arms and, in turn, American arms. For that reason, he believes the agreement has run into opposition. "People who depend on military spending want to continue high military spending," he said.

Price doesn't favor disarmament until international institutions are established that have the power to monitor and enforce world law.

Committee Chairman William Proxmire, said at the first of two hearings "there is no documented evidence that it (the loan) was politically motivated. The committee was to address its questions today to Murdoch and the leaders of the Carter-Mondale Re-election Committee, including Robert Strauss, Tim Kraft and Robert McCleary. On Feb. IS, Murdoch asked Moore for a loan so Aasett Airlines could purchase 18 Boeing jets. Murdoch met with Moore just before he had lunch with Carter.

In the 10 days between the luncheon and approval of the Export-Imbank Bank loan, the Post endorsed Carter for re-election. On Feb 29., the bank board authorized the loan to Ansett, covering 65 percent of the purchase price of the jets at 8.1 percent interest. Not only was the interest rate below the bank's 8.5 to 8.75 percent average, but the entire loan process took only 10 days. Normally, such a loan application would take three to four weeks. Bank directors Margaret Kahliff and Thibaut de Saint Phalle testified they were rushed into a decision on granting the loan.

Palmieri said the administration would not be rushed into making hasty decisions about the Cuban refugees. "We are watching this problem prudently and carefully and we're not going to be rushed into anything," he said.

The Carter administration eventually will have to ask Congress for money to run the processing program and provide welfare, relocation and training benefits to the refugees. Sullivan bad only to show a "mere possibility" of a conflict of interest or prejudice on behalf of his defense attorney, and that this was established when the attorneys decided to offer no defense testimony. For the past 40 years, the Supreme Court has recognized a constitutional right for representation by an attorney who has no conflicting loyalties to other defendants. Some courts have held that a trial judge has a duty to tell the accused he has a right to the "undivided loyalty" of his attorney. But Supreme Court sharply narrowed those requirements yesterday.

In the majority opinion written by Justice Lewis F. Powell Jr. the court held that state courts are not required to probe multiple representation by the same attorney, unless the court knows or should know that a conflict of interest exists. And unless the trial court ignores a defendant's plea to show the conflict of interest, an appeals court can't presume the conflict resulted in ineffective counsel, the court ruled. Justices William Brennan and Thur-good Marshall dissented.

"The court must at least affirmatively advise the defendants that joint representation creates potential hazards which the defendants should consider before proceeding with the representation," Brennan wrote in his dissent "The trial court has a duty to inquire whether there is multiple representation, to warn defendants of the possible risks of such representation, and to ascertain that the representation is the result of the defendants' informed choice," wrote Marshall. in the face while being held in the cellblock at No. 2.
