Assuming that the Vietnam war is settled and nuclear holocaust averted, the secretary regards the ever growing number of people in the world as among "the major tasks, perils and problems ahead." i'he major problems will arrive out of the sheer numbers of people," he said Wednesday in an anniversary interview with United Press International. "At the present time there is no nation that is putting forward the doctrine of 'lebensraum' for territorial expansion or aggression against its neighbors. That's because there is considerable confidence that science and technology can somehow deal with this problem of people and resources. "If that hope disappears, we could have new crises arising out of sheer pressure of population.

It is a race between scientific and technological advance on one side and limitation of the growth of the species on Hie other. In the 1980s and 1990s this problem could be at least as explosive as the nuclear weapons problem." Rusk, who began seven turbulent years in the top cabinet post on Jan. 21, 1961, ranged over a wide variety of topics during the interview, viewing the attacks he has undergone since taking office with philosophic detachment -and with a wry humor seldom glimpsed in public. GASBUGGY TEST Mud Stalls Nuclear Gas Collections FARMINGTON, N.M. (AP) Mud almost 4,000 feet below the earth's surface prevented collection of natural gas samples yesterday after drillers cut into the subterranean chamber created by the world's first industrial nuclear explosion.

The chamber, as tall as a 33-story building, was created Dec. 10 by the detonation at 4,240 eet underground of a nuclear In the early Kennedy days, these assaults came principally from critics who viewed him as "weak and vacillating." Currently he is pictured as the evil genius behind the unwavering Vietnam policy that has provoked one of the greatest public debates in U.S. history. Through it all, Rusk has maintained the aplomb and courtesy he considers vital armor for a diplomat entrusted with life-and-death matters in the nuclear age. "This job doesn't have much room for losing one's temper," he said.

A 2-year-old boy is in care of his brother, Richard, in Valley Station, Wolfe's home town.

"My mother, Mrs. R. H. Wolfe of Valley Station, will care for the two youngest, but I am going to have to place the three oldest in the Kentucky Baptist Orphanage at Spring Meadows," Wolfe said. Orphanage officials, he explained, would not take the children under 6.

The explosion, called Project Gasbuggy, was the first step in determining if such blasts in rock formations of low permeability can increase to a profitable degree the amount of natural gas recovery. Scientists have estimated that if the concept is proven by Gasbuggy and subsequent tests, the nation's natural gas reserves may be doubled. Gasbuggy's joint sponsors -the Atomic Energy Commission, El Paso Natural Gas Co. and the U.S. Bureau of Mines -won't know how much gas can be taken from the chamber until production testing begins later this year.

But an AEC spokesman said officials hope that the small amount of gas collected through the re-entry hole completed yesterday will provide answers for two mysteries the depth of the chamber caused by the explosion and the amount of radioactivity in the gas. A chamber height of 350 feet had been predicted, and Wednesday's revised estimate of 333 feet thus seemed to verify largely the predictions on the blast's effects In an underground area of shale and sandstone. Gasbuggy was detonated in shale just below the Pictured Cliffs rock formation. The cliffs formation in the gas-rich San Juan Basin of northern New Mexico is considered typical of many low perm a i 1 i formations from which gas cannot be recovered at a profit by conventional means. When the first gas samples are collected in air-free bottles lowered down the hole created by the re-entry drilling bit, they will be taken to the AEC's Lawrence Radiation Laboratory at Livermore, for several months of analysis.

Dean Rusk But he acknowledges privately that he frequently has to "bile my tongue" to suppress the retorts that might naturally spring to the lips of a boy from Cherokee County, Ga. His sharpest scorn appears reserved for those who left the Kennedy or Johnson administrations and then wrote critical books or articles based on inside information. Implying that some administration critics write out of sheer frustration at not having been able to impose their ideas while in office, Rusk paraphrased Lord Action with a laugh: "It has been said that power tends to corrupt, but that loss of power tends to corrupt absolutely." If Rusk remains at state another year--and the odds are he will--he will have equaled or surpassed the records of four of five secretaries who have served longer than he: James Madison, John Quincy Adams, William H. Seward and Hamilton Fish. He has no desire to try to beat the all-time recordholder, Cordell Hull, who served just three months short of 12 years.

Reviewing the triumphs and frustrations of the past seven years, he said his greatest satisfaction has been "keeping the nuclear beast in its cage." Rusk said the Cuba missile crisis of 1962, which he has described as his "toughest experience," marked a turning point in Soviet-American relations but he didn't know whether this trend would continue. Model For Consulate Idea Architect William Wilde would like the Mexican Pavillion he designed to replace the dilapidated Mexican Consulate at 553 S. Stone Ave. But in order for this to take place civic minded citizens would have to finance the building and give it to Mexico, or Mexico would have to buy it. Any country mus own the property on which its consulate stands.

Wilde suggests the structure be built in the heart of the urban renewal area. (Citizen Photo by Bill Hopkins). Mexican Pavillion Proposed Architect William Wilde today unveiled his proposed plan for a Mexican Pavillion to be built in the urban renewal area and to act as a center for cultural, industrial, and commercial interchange between Mexico and the United States. Wilde showed a model of the facility at a Trade Bureau luncheon and explained how the idea originated. Mayor James N.

Corbett Jr. and Councilman Hector Morales had suggested the need for such a building, Wilde said. "They definitely started my thinking about it," he said. "Then when I went to the consul building before a trip to Mexico and saw the deplorable conditions there, I decided to design this building." The architect stressed that he was acting as a citizen who happens to be an architect who wished to encourage others to action on the project. As conceived, the two-story structure would house continuous displays.

Wilde said the building could be used for receptions, fashion shows, industrial product displays and travel presentations to inspire travel in both countries. "There is room on the second floor for consular offices," Wilde told the tradesmen, "But, unless a group of civic minded citizens finances the building and gives it to Mexico or Mexico would buy it the consul can't occupy the building. Any country must own the property on which its consular office stands, like an island," Wilde added. STONE, 6TH AVENUES Butterfield Link Proposals Call For One-Way Traffic By BILL KIMMEY Citizen Staff Writer Stone and 6th avenues downtown, along with 14th and 15th streets, would be one way under the latest plan for the Butterfield Expressway link. It also would require demolition of Carrillo School, and All Saints Church and parochial school.

The plan was called "preliminary." But a Phoenix engineering firm left no doubt yesterday that it regarded the area between 14th and 15th as the best path for the route. Engineering Corporation of America spokesmen explained their plan at meetings of two Tucson Regional Plan Inc. committees considering downtown and traffic problems. The committees are to study the ECA proposal and make recommendations. Barring an unusual development, a shift in the basic location will not be one of the changes suggested.

ECA engineers Burke Peterson and Keith Hubbard emphasized that their firm had tested eight possible locations for the Butterfield link between Park Avenue and Interstate 10. City administrators put down an attempt by county planners at one of the meetings to shift the expressway south to spare the church and two schools. The city forces said the City Council agreed on the ECA alignment in 1966. "We're trying to do something instead of just talk," said Herman Danforth, lot of time on this and I thought it was one area where there was not so much objection. It's a little late to talk about alternate locations." Under the plan, busy Stone Avenue through the heart of downtown would become one- way southbound and 6th Avenue would be one-way northbound in the downtown area.

The other one-way couplet would be 14th Street (westbound) and 15th Street (eastbound). All would have four lanes with provisions for turning movements. Most of the committees' members had little comment during the meetings, though some were plainly enthusiastic about the plan. They particularly were happy with the possible benefits to downtown of having fast-travel access to it from outlying areas of the city. "Let's call a spade a spade," said Ted Bloom of Dave Bloom Sons.

"Downtown needs a lot of help new lease on life and some consideration from all planners." Two architects expressed differences of opinion over the ex- pressway location. They were Edward Nelson and William Wilde. "It seems to me this is the logical place to make the division the central business district and the peripheral area," said Nelson. Wilde said it might be an efficient plan from the standpoint of traffic movement, but felt the expressway should be moved south. Then, he went on, more space could be left between the new community center and expressway, which he called "a Chinese Wall." The ECA engineers pointed out that their plan would call for gradual slopes bordering the expressway, which would be "depressed" 20-25 feet below ground level.

They explained that landscaping would give a park-like appearance.

South Africans began raising money today to keep Barnard from moving to America. "Let South Africans 'now, in every city, town and village, open their purses," announced Lionel Murray, a member of Parliament and chairman of the Barnard Research Fund. Barnard, whose two heart transplants have given South Africa prestige in a world often hostile to its racial policies, told newsmen Wednesday he has received a tempting offer from the United States.

MORE LOVE, LOYALTY TO CHURCH ASKED Bishops Decry 'Crisis Of Obedience 9 By LOUIS CASSELS WASHINGTON (UPI)--America's 46 million Roman Catholics are being exhorted in an extraordinary appeal by their bishops to display more love, loyalty and obedience toward their rapidly changing church.

The bishops made their plea in a pastoral letter in which they voiced deep concern about a spirit of criticism, impatience with authority and reluctance to obey that has developed in the church since the Vatican council. They noted in the letter, issued Wednesday night, that in the past five years the church has undergone some of the most rapid and profound changes in its history. "Such a period is no time to lose patience, above all with the church, or to attempt to decide, on the strength of one's own insights alone, what things are to be believed or what values are to be affirmed for salvation," they said. ask all, scholars and simple faithful alike, for honest adherence to the teachings of the Vatican council we ask that the same love and loyalty shown toward the church which called the council be shown to the church which must now interpret the council, implement its reforms and give direction to the spirit of renewal which is its heritage." The lengthy document was approved by the bishops at a closed meeting in Washington last month but was not made public until now. It was official recognition of a "crisis of obedience" in the church, a crisis which affects liberals who want the reforms to move farther and faster as well as conservatives who feel that there has been too much change already.

The bishops expressed particular concern about priests who quit to get married or publicly voice their disagreement with the church's teachings on such subjects as birth control. "Some not only lost their own vision but have sought to shatter the ideals of others and made a public display of their defects," they said. "When a priest falters, the whole church trembles. However a priest may think of himself as being exactly like everyone else, the world does not so see him." The bishops also were sharply i i a of theologians who "ridicule the church and, under the guise of being contemporary, seem hostile to everything except their own views." They emphasized they did not wish to "discourage the positive forces developing in the American Catholic Church," nor to apply the brakes to the process of reform set in motion by the Vatican council. They did want to make the point that not everything old is bad, and not everything new is good.

Fdot-draggihg conservatives also came in for rebuke. The bishops particularly admonished Catholics who are indifferent or hostile such social reforms as efforts to eliminate poverty and racial tion..
