SENTIMENT on Capitol Hill Is veering away from any showdown with the courts over Adam Clayton Powell Congressmen talk big publicly about thumbing their nose at the courts, but privately they sing low. They don't want to put themselves in the same position of flouting the Federal courts that Powell is in with the New York courts. Furthermore, most Congressmen realize they made a serious constitutional error when they did not seat Powell first and kick him out later. It's a foregone conclusion that Powell will be overwhelmingly reelected.

When that happens on April 11 you can be sure Congress will seat him then take some disciplinary action afterward. It's long been the belief of congressional leaders that when a congressional district elects a representative, he should be seated. Even after Jim Curley of Boston was sent to the jug, he was later reelected by the people of Boston. The action on Powell will doubtless be similar. Disciplinary action will come after he's seated.

WASHINGTON A secret meeting of California Democratic congressmen has set up a political boycott of Bobby Kennedy. They decided Bobby would not be invited to address fund-raising dinners in California at least for the time being. Behind the snub was indignation over Bobby's recent speeches on peace in Vietnam, which many California Democrats felt were a challenge to President Johnson's leadership and were splitting the Democratic Party. Rep. George Miller of Oakland was especially indignant; also Charles Wilson of Los Angeles and Chet Holi-field of Montebello.

Rep. Ed Roybal of Los Angeles had suggested that Bobby be invited to an upcoming fund-raising Democratic dinner. "He would be a good drawing card," he said. This started the sparks flying. "I certainly do not like the position he's taken against the President on Vietnam," declared Miller.

"And I doubt he would be much of a drawing card right now. The chances are he wouldn't" AKRON BEACON JOURNAL By KENNETH NICHOLS AKRONESQUE: Even if the Swiss make fine watches, their timing is off just caught up with the fact, apparently, that the first motorized police patrol wagon in the world roamed Akron streets from 1899 to 1904 an article about the electric-powered designed and built by fireman Frank F. Loomis, appears in the latest issue of the "Automobil Revue" of Switzerland a friend sent along a copy to D. W. Brown, manager of engineering administration at Goodyear Aerospace, who admits, "it was news to me, too" the horseless wagon survived a dunking in the Ohio Canal during the riot of 1900 when the then City Hall was burned.

It was finally retired in favor of a wagon with a little more speed than the 13 miles per hour of which the first was capable when both electric motors were working the gifted Loomis, who died in 1936, also built the city's first police and fire signal system.

Dear Central: From now on I'm going to be extra polite to "Information." Thanks for the reminder. DEAR ANN: I am an information operator for the telephone company. For years I have read the pet gripes' of others in your column, and now I want to air mine.

You would not believe the abuse an information operator takes from the public in a normal day's work. To begin with, we are available for a special service. Most people who call information are too lazy to look up the number, so we are doing them a favor. Is it unreasonable to expect the person calling to know the correct spelling of the name he is inquiring about? You'd be surprised at the people who become nasty when questioned. Also, they get belligerent when asked for an address or a first name or initiaL I have had women as well as men use obscene language and shout such things as, "Hurry up you igno DEAR ANN: When our 19-year-old soldier son was home on leave recently he asked me to unpack his suitcase.

I was warned against throwing away any papers that might be important. When I went through his suitcase I was sick at what I found. His girl friend had sent him a stack of unbelievably filthy pictures. WASHINGTON Former Vice President Nixon had his seventh crisis last week. He arrived in Moscow hoping to have another "kitchen debate" with Soviet leaders, as he did with Premier Nikita Khrushchev in 1959, but no one in the Soviet government would talk to him.

This put a big crimp in Nixon's presidential aspirations because the ex-vice president was counting heavily on another confrontation with the Communists as a method of getting his Republican nomination drive under way. Few Americans can forget that historic moment in 1959 when Nixon stood eyeball to eyeball with Khrushchev in a kitchen in Moscow's Solkil-niki Park and debated the merits of the American way of life. This debate, more than anything else, got Nixon the Republican nomination, because after it was over everyone said: "Nixon sure knows how to talk tough to the Russians." It's no wonder Nixon wanted to return to the scene of his triumph and start a new argument with the present Soviet leaders. But for some reason they weren't having any of it, and the ex-vice president found himself being treated as just another tourist, which is a terrible thing to happen to an American politician in an Iron Curtain country. Nixon was so peeved by the Soviets' refusal to see him on an official level that he said: "Apparently a government without an opposition is not willing to recognize the opposition party in another country." But this is only part of the story.

The truth is that things are a lot different now than they were in 1959. There is a detente going on be tween the U. S. and the Soviet Union. "The Communists never interfere in another country's elections," a Soviet Embassy official in Washington explained.

"But you helped Nixon get the nomination in 1960," I said. "It was Khrushchev who did that. Why do you think he's out of office now?" "You mean you threw him out of office because of the kitchen debate with Nixon?" "Of course. We have an old Russian saying that if you can't stand the heat in the kitchen, get out" "I DIDN'T know it was a Russian saying," I said. "Why couldn't you have allowed Nixon to visit Khrushchev, this time at his apartment and have the debate in the kitchen there? It wouldn't have hurt your present government and it would have done the former vice president a lot of good." "We thought of it, but Khrushchev wasn't interested.

He doesn't have a very big kitchen now, and Mrs. Khrushchev was afraid to have it shown on television." "That's reasonable," I said, "but surely in a country of your size you could have found someone to debate with Nixon?" "It's against our present policy," he said. "If Nixon wanted to debate with somebody he should have stayed in France." 1 "Then there is absolutely no chance of the ex-vice president getting into a debate with any official of the Soviet Union?" "The way we've got it fixed, he won't even be able to get into an argument with a Russian taxicab driver."

Dear Finders: There's a law against sending pornography in the mail so you must keep the pictures until your son comes home. Then, tell him how you happen to have the pictures and say no more.

Your silence will speak far more eloquently than anything you could say. DEAR ANN: My husband asked for a divorce 11 months ago so he could marry another woman. It nearly killed me but I agreed. He did not marry the woman but he still sees her, I am told. His visiting day to see our children is Sunday but he has been coming over two evenings during the week after the children are in bed.

He still cares for me, Ann, and I'm ashamed to tell you that I am putty in his hands. I get awfully disgusted with myself for being so weak but I am helpless. Please advise. STILL LOVE HIM. Dear Still: If you want him back for keeps you'll have to add some cement to that putty.

Tell him he is not welcome to drop in unexpectedly. If he does, don't let him in the house. Be sure to have a neighbor or relative present on his "visiting day." If he REALLY cares for you he will be unable to tolerate the frustration and he'll let you know it. Norton Mochridqc Jaw Treatment Plaza Saea NEW YORK If it hadn't been for a pair of socks, the multi billion dollar chemical and dye industry that was spawned by the German I. G.

ALFRED SEYLER I have a jaw that clicks and goes out of socket. MDs, chiropractors and ear specialists all say my trouble is due to tension and menopause, but since reading your column I think my trouble may be because I haven't had lower teeth for 15 years.

Do you think a dentist could help me? MRS. F. R. A Yes, I think treatment of your problem is within the field of dentistry. It is true that sary for the correction of joint pain, but such measures are seldom, used until all other treatment procedures have failed, and especially not until all problems of tension and emotional disturbances have been ruled out.

Since many cases of painful jaw joints occur because lost teeth are not replaced by either full or partial dentures, you may expect that any dentist who attempts to treat your difficulty will insist that you wear partial or full dentures. When a person has been without molars or other back teeth for 15 years, it requires a great deal of cooperation from the patient to achieve a successful result.

Proper treat about her love and mine the Plaza Hotel. Plaza: Its Life and Times, The German anecdote isn't in the book I beat it out of Eve one afternoon over tea and neither is this one, but I think it's one you'll like. Seems that Princess Grace of Monaco was coming to stay at the Plaza for the first time and great preparations were made The management, wishing Grace to be enchanted with her first glimpse of the hotel entranr-e, decorated it with thousands of 1 i yellow mums, banks and banks of them all along the sidewalk, up the stairs and into the Fifth av. lobby. They got out a rich red carpet and held it ready to roll down the moment she arrived.

Then, while everybody stood at attention at the Fifth av. entrance, Princess Grace and her children drove up to the 59th st entrance, got out and walked in greeted by nobody. In her book, Eve has captured the fun, the glory, the romance, excitement and elegance of this great hotel everything from the visits of royalty and world leaders down to a cream-puff fight between two orchestra leaders. American ment must m- elude sedative drugs which reduce nervous tension, drugs Proverb and Schwartz stayed Mockridge at the Plaza Ho- tel and one morning, going, down for breakfast, Bosch no-ticed the elevator operator's socks. "Look, Ernst," he said, pointing.

"They're silk! Real silk! That does it. Any country in which an elevator man wears silk socks is a country in which we want to be established." ALL OF this I learn from Eve Brown, the journalist who' has written a fascinating book 5462-Proverbs XK; 1-2 Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity than a man who is perverse in speech, and is a fool It is not good for a man to be without knowledge, and he who makes haste with his feet mioses his way. The Giants WHAT SHOULD teach us tolerance in personal relations is that all of us have dear friends who have other friends we cannot stand; nor must we expect all our friends to like all our other friends for a bond between individuals is based on unconscious factors bearing little relation to reality. The paradox of sudden failure amid success springs from the fact that often the very quality which lifts a person to the peak is the same quality responsible for his abrupt fall for example, the aggressiveness that drives a man to the top can also drive him to self-destruction when he has reached the top and has nowhere to go but down. Observers at the front are the last ones to know what is going on in a war, just as a chessman is incapable of realizing what is happening on the board.

Opening a desk drawer in a hotel room, and seeing the inevitable Bible there, reminded me of Christopher Morley's ironic remark: "Why do they put the Gideon Bibles only in the bedrooms, where it's usually too late, and not in the barroom There is less danger in not knowing history than in knowing just enough of it to be able to draw shallow comparisons between past events and present conditions; the people who use the "Munich" analogy to explain our presence in Vietnam are simply falsifying the facts of history. WE BELIEVE that everyone should practice what he preaches; but when we hear beatniks and the like preaching what they practice, we become unaccountably upset, for we really prefer hypocrisy to uncon-ventionality. It is frightfully hard to crawl out of the web of ego; even self-abnegation has a touch of pride in it; as Nietzsche tartly observed, "Whoever despises himself still esteems the despiser within himself." Forcing young people to study who lack the desire to study is as absurd and futile as forcing someone to eat who has no appetite and, ultimately, is just as regurgitative. Everyone has a right to discuss the turmoil in civil society today, but, likewise, everyone has an obligation to define for himself, as clearly as he can, the distinctions among "violence," "force," and "power." Dr. Seyler such as aspirin to eliminate discomfort and frequently the use of heat to induce muscle relaxation.

Injections are sometimes used to control joint pain caused by inflammation within the joint The newer compounds of hydrocortisone have been used with a great deal of success in the treatment of painful joints although it is not recommended they be used routinely, but rather as part of a thorough treatment program. AN ORAL surgeon would be the person to perform such joint injections. There may be an increase in pain in the joint for the first day or two after the injection, followed by lessening and disappearance of the pain. The relief usually lasts for several weeks, during which time the rest of the treatment program should be carried on.
