Secretary-General Dag Hammar- skjold, in the face of stern Soviet opposition. In the Steering Committee, the United States is determined to block the Soviet demand that the United Nations recognize Peiping as rightful holder of the seat now occupied by Nationalist China. The U.S. delegation announced support for a New Zealand proposal to debate the over-all question of who should represent China. And the U.S.

or one of its allies is expected to move for creation of a special committee to study the issue and report back to the assembly next year. Aware that this would have the same effect as shelving the issue, Communists are certain. to fight the maneuver. But delegates believe the study plan will get majority, support. In the hunt for a new secretary- general, the Soviet Union killed hopes of East-West agreement by turning down a widely supported plan to name a representative of a nonaligned nation as interim successor until a permanent secretary-general can be agreed upon.

"The Soviets insisted they would settle only for Premier Khrushchev's troika three-man board representing the Western, Communist and neutral nations, each with veto power. The Western powers are certain such a setup would paralyze the United Nations. They were reported determined to press for a one-man authority, even if it means naming an interim chief who would not be recognized by the Soviets. The Berlin crisis comes up in private talks between Secretary of State Dean Rusk and Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko. They are trying to pave the way to East-West negotiations, but Rusk wants to find out first whether the Soviets are willing to talk about 'mutual concessions or simply want to force Western approval of their, policies for Germany.

Complete failure was reported Wednesday by the two powers in their attempts reopen negotiations on disarmament. But they did announce a statement of principles for future negotiations which will open the way for what promises to be a detailed disarmament debate.

Another category takes in men whose callup would result in "extreme personal or community hardship." Enlisted men having four or more dependents normally would be considered as meeting the hardship qualification, the regulations say.

But if you are called in, there are laws to protect you from various hardships. One guards you against abrupt eviction from your home, outright foreclosure on your mortgage or repossession of your car for failure to meet payments- provided your financial troubles stem from taking a pay cut upon entering military service. And you are allowed to delay paying federal, state and local income taxes until up to six months after leaving service. Generally speaking, a man who is ordered to active duty retains the right to his job. He would forfeit the right if he did not move to get back into the company within 1 JO days after discharge.

A man would not necessarily get back the same job. He might get a better one, provided that would have happened if he had not left for military service. Or he might find himself in a lesser job, if there had been layoffs while was awiy and he normally would have been caught in such a situation it ho had remained at work. A serviceman's seniority rights iin hi.s civilian job arc uninterrupted, and on returning he must given any pay raises granted in his absence.
