Thomas F. Lehey, 63, has resigaed his "nerve-wracking in the Treasury Department estimating Federal tax collections. But he feels sorrier for his successor, because Congress is expected to pass a tax reform program.

"I'm' certainly glad to be missing tax reform," the silver-haired economics forecaster said. "If anything is done, it mean successive changes in the tax system for three, fonr or five years, and the man may never know where to get off." Lehey's predictions since 1937 have been incorporated in the annual Federal bulget, which goes to Congress each ytfar. He had to calculate the tax return sax months before the fiscal year started. Colleagues praise his track record. Treasury secretaries usually took his word for it, but "I think Douglas Dillon too-c more interest than any other secretary," Lchey related.

Kissinger's Beautiful People, Circle Rescuers defying the possibility of a new rockfall struggled Saturday night to save three persons pinned alive in the wreckage of two trains that collided in a tunnel, killing at least 48 persons. Two of three children were heard crying from under the wreckage during the morning. But rescue workers said their cries died away by nightfall. BESIDES the 48 known killed and 76 injured all French an unknown number of bodies lay trapped in the tangle of twisted metal and fallen earth, police said.

Newsmen on the scene said rescuers sighted 17 bodies in one coach and 12 in another, with one of the wrecked cars completely inaccessible. Rail officials said about 500 passengers were on the two trains, many of them soldiers and students on a weekend break. Rescuers reported at least two men and a pregnant woman were still alive in the mangled coaches. THE TWO TRAINS sped into the tunnel from opposite directions Friday night at 60 miles an hour. Rail officials said it appeared one train de- REP.

Wilbur Mills resolved their differences Saturday and joined forces in proposing a plan for compulsory national health insurance covering "every American" from birth to death. They outlined their plan at a Democratic platform committee hearing in St. Louis and said they would submit formal legislation to Congress soon.

MARGARET Ali and Kissinger AROUND THE WORLD, around the clock, around the calendar there's only one way to be surrounded for military strategist Henry Kissinger. Companions at various times (clockwise from top right) are CBS producer Margaret Osmer; Nancy Maginnnes, a staff worker for New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller; NBC "Today" show hostess Barbara Walters, and actress Ali MacGra'v. NANCY BARBARA Clad in blue jeans, 3arbra Streisand is making her first tour of Israel, accompanied by her daughter. "It's odd to be here," the comedy star said.

"I used to be a yeshiva boher (religious student) in the States." She was to visit the Wailing Wall (now officially thj Western Wall) in Jerusalem and lunch with Deputy Premier Yigal Allon Buffet guests who load up their plates bring out the creativity in Alfred Hitchcock.

THEY DID NOT provide any precise details to explain how their program would be financed, but most previous proposals of such scope envisioned use of a payroll tax arrangement in which workers, employers and the Federal government would each pay one-third of the cost. The plan advanced by Kennedy, chairman of the Senate Health subcommittee, and Mills, chairman of the House Ways Means Committee, went far beyond one that President nixon submitted to Congress last year. THE NIXON PLAN would require employers to offer health insurance to their employes and would provide subsidized health insurance for the unemployed who could not afford its full costs.

In the statement they presented to the platform committee, Mills and Kennedy noted that the President's program "is not compulsory, but would only make health care available." In contrast, they said their plan would have the Federal government set up a system covering "all Americans with a standard, comprehensive set of basic health insurance benefits supplemented by protection against catastrophic costs."
