The Roving SMOKE AND SNOW-Heavy Snowfall Does Not Slow Activities at the Paper Mills The World Today Job for Texas Team By EDMOND LEBRETON WASHINGTON (AP) John F. Kennedy's Texas team should have an early chance to show whether it can line up Southern lawmakers for the president- elect's program as effectively as Jt kept Southern political leaders behind his candidacy. When Kennedy talked about his legislative program, with the vice president-elect, Sen. Lyndon Johnson, and House Speaker Sam Rayburn, at his side, he mentioned first a Social Security-based health care program for the. aged.

Southern Votes Decisive This is the legislation killed this year in the House Ways and Means Committee headed by Rep. Wilbur'D. Mills, and the Senate Finance Committee headed by Sen. Harry F. Byrd, D-Va.

Southern votes figured heavily in the committee decisions. Backers of the kind of bill Kennedy favors many sideliners agreed with if such legislation had ever reached the floor of the House and Senate with committee approval both chambers would have passed it. To redeem its campaign pledges, the incoming administration must lead another try. The coming struggle affords a second test of Kennedy's major strategic offer Die vice presidential nomination to Johnson, his great convention rival for the presidency, and not to write the South out of his calculations. Long-Term Outlook In terms of the election, the decision has been proven inspired.

Johnson, and "Johnson's redoubtable manager, Speaker Rayburn, certainly helped keep Texas and the majority of the South in the regular Democratic fold. The vote turned oul so close, even elector-; ally, that if Kennedy had lost just two slates rated in advance as most doubtful, Texas and North, Carolina, he would have lacked! an electoral majority. But the chances are that Kanno Jy, a planner, was 1 bakiny beyond the election when' he made his dramatic bid to the' Senate majority leader. Suppose he offered Johnson no balm after beating him for the presidential nomination, but had been elected anyhow. He would then have had to deal with a Congress whose two top Democrats, loyal party men to be suro.

might still be nursing private wounds. Personal Stake Instead, he has given Johnson, and, through Johnson, Rayburn, a substantial personal stake in the new administration's success or failure in Congress. The' struggle will open soon, presumably in the Ways and Means committee, which this year met for months behind closed doors before irrevocably turning down the Social Security approach to health care for the aged) No variation of the Social Security plan ever mustered more than 9 votes in the 25-man committee. The 10 Republicans voted solidly against Chairman. Mills authored the quite different and sharply restricted grant-in-aid plan for needy aged which finally emerged.

Raybtirn's Task So Rayburn's work, if he intends to back Kennedy all the way on this issue, is cut out for him. It begins when the 'House Democrats caucus Monday, sines there are two Democratic vacancies to filj on Ways and Means. The two who left the committee are the author of the Social Security health plan, Rep. Aime J. Forand of Rhode Island, and one of its strongest supporters, Rep.

Lee Metcalf of Montana. Forand did not seek re-election. Metoalf was elected to the Senate. There is a Republican vacancy on the committee, too, but it is hardly likely the opposition party will name to this blue ribbon tax- writing committee anyone who might waver in opposition to the Democratic program. Backers of the Kennedy plan, however, think thai if they can get their measure to the floor they will have support from some GOP colleagues, since (here will no longer be in the White, House a Republican president publicly and strongly opposing any link of Social Security to old age health! care.
