But if the war over the strategic border state of Kashmir continues to escalate, the position of this country will become increasingly difficult.

Ostensibly, the battles are between India and Pakistan and concern a territory they have been disputing for 18 years. The United States, Great Britain and the Soviet Union are attempting to remain individually aloof but are expressing themselves through the United Nations. No war in Asia is likely to remain a bilateral affair very long. Like the bloody struggle in Viet Nam, this one is made to order for the Red Chinese. It is another means of plaguing the West with additional fronts over which to spread its forces.

Once there are enough of these, Peking figures it will be easy to achieve its ultimate goal of world domination by picking them off one-by-one. In a doctrinal article published by the Communist Chinese press Marshal Lin Piao, Peking's defense minister, boasts of this strategy. He admits that Mao Tse-tung is the author of the plan he refers to as "people's wars" that will destroy the United States piece-by-piece. Pakistan's independence is underwritten by the Central Treaty Organization. Its partners include Britain, Turkey and Iran with the United States as an associate member.

They are not likely to help it, however, in what appears to be its own aggressive action. Red China will. It is handy, has manpower to spare, always has been willing to gamble on extending its rule and never has regarded India as a friend, much less as an ally. This is why it is difficult to understand the Pakistan government's support for what at first appeared to be border raids. The stand India has indicated it will take to block efforts of the United Nations to end the fighting is equally foolhardy.

All these two nations see is the Himalayan State of Kashmir. What they need to see is the lurking, leering Red Chinese waiting to pounce not only on 1 Pakistan and India but on all of Asia. This the United States cannot tolerate any more than it can permit the Communists to take over in South Viet Nam. Take a Break The business of the National Safety Council is to evaluate the causes of accidents and come up with suggestions that may lead to saving lives on highways and elsewhere. As traffic deaths have increased, so have the theories about the causes.

Speed, the condition and equipment of vehicles, roads and weather, the age and sex of drivers and their physical condition all have been weighed. A percentage of the accidents is charged to each. Now the engineers have come up with a new one: Cars are too comfortable. The increasing comfort, they argue, lulls the reflexes of drivers to insensitivity and leads to fatal accidents. With windows closed, air-conditioning on, the radio playing and the car moving smoothly at 60 miles an hour with little driving effort, there's a tendency to relax and crash.

Having identified "highway hypnosis" as a major killer, they also have come up with a cure: Step out of the car every hour, if only for a minute or two. The pause will do more than break the spell of comfort. It will help cut speed, relieve tension and drowsiness, even help a driver who has no right to be behind the wheel in the first place clear the befuddlement of alcohol. With the sharp increase in highway deaths emphasized by another Labor Day weekend record, any cure is worth trying. No Appeal Two claimants for a winsome Collie came before a Newark magistrate the other day.

After hearing the story of each, he directed them to stand against a wall 10 feet apart, then ordered the door opened. The collie came in, wagged its tail, looked about, then slapped its front paws on the chest of a man who shared its affection with his 14-year-old son. A woman who had paid someone $20 for the dog as a pet for her children was crestfallen. The judge had the wisdom of Solomon. He also had compassion.

After awarding the dog to the man and boy, who gave the woman the $20 she had paid to a stranger, he promised to get another Collie for the weeping mother and her children. There will be no appeal. What Others Say Masai Secret St. Louis Post-Dispatch It may be that significant results will flow from Prof. George Mann's African experiments with his walking machine, but we rather imagine a number of Masai warriors will continue shaking their heads over the antics of the crazy Americans.

Prof. Mann and a team of Vanderbilt University researchers recently visited Masai country to make certain comparisons between the tall, lean Africans and American college students. The purpose was to find out why the Masai never seem to get heart disease in spite of a meat-blood-and-milk diet outrageously high in cholesterol. The Masai spend most of their time tending cattle, And I'll Pick Up the INDIAN PAKISTANI WAR 3 THE WASHINGTON STAR Changing Labor Command By VICTOR RIESEL International Assn. of Machinists.

There will be Paul Jennings, the young militant, who beat the seemingly invincible wasp, Jim Carey, became head of the International Union of Electrical Workers. He will be working closely with steel's "Abe" Abel. They proclaim for national political action. Abel is a strong force in the Americans for Democratic Action. Jennings is a favorite son of the New York Liberal party.

There will be others whose habit is towards more traditional unionism and more conservative politiking. I pick them out here because significantly they were special WASHINGTON J. Edgar Hoover, director of the FBI, probably knows more than anybody else what's causing crime to increase throughout the nation. He keeps in close touch with local officials and police in all areas, and certainly is able form a judgm ent as to whether recent i st b- ances have been Lawrence due primarily, to "sociological" factors. Hence, his latest message published in the September' issue of the "FBI Enforcement Bulletin" about hoodlums and riots is particularly significant.

Mr. Hoover does not accept the explanation frequently offered even in the Administration that the disorders can be blamed on the failures of society. He says: "It appears that the public is beginning to gag on the steady sociological diet of excusing the conduct of teenage hoodlums because "society has failed Resort communities racked by senseless riots and citizens cannot venture from their homes without being assaulted and beaten are getting fed up with pampered and insolent youth gangs "Meanwhile, the question puzzling most people is what caused the principles and morals of some of our youth to degenerate to near animal level. Recognizing the problem comes much easier than solution. However, of all its.

involved, I am convinced one of the most damaging is the false teaching which tends to blame society for all the frustrations, woes, and inconveniences, real or imaginary, visited upon our young people. "Teen-agers and their parents have been subjected to a foolhardy theory which condones rebellious conduct against authority, law and order, or any regulatory measures which restrict their whims, wishes, desires, and Important Election Ahead By PHIL H. STORCH ers picking those they deem best to serve, that it is now becoming possible to right some of the wrongs that have existed in this country. Failure to register, and to vote after thee being registered, leads to kind Germany experienced under Hitler, Italy under Mussolini and some of the South and Central American states under despots who, from time to time, have ruled In Soviet Russia the people have never known a free election with candidates of their choosing. We must guard against such tyranny and the best way to do it is to be registered and make regular use of the voting booths.

This fall, practically every community in the Lehigh Valley area has an important election. In Allentown and Bethlehem the voters must choose mayors, councilmen and school directors. Easton will also name council and school board members. Mayors are to be elected in Summit Hill, Stroudsburg, Alburtis, Slatington, Lehighton, Macungie, Freemansburg, Topton, Bowmanstown, Nazareth, Lansford and Coplay, to name a few of the boroughs in the area. And in Hoover's Riot Message By DAVID LAWRENCE activities.

This astonishing belief has spread into the schoolroom, the living room, the courtroom and now into the streets of our nation in the form of wild, drunken brawls. "No doubt society has failed our youth, but not in the way many seem to think. Rather, the dereliction has been in the failure to teach them the meaning of discipline, restraint, self-respect, and respect for law and order and the rights of others. Consequently, the lesson now is both painful and costly." Mr. Hoover did not discuss specifically the riots which have developed out of racial friction but confined himself to the misbehavior of teenagers generally.

There are, however, many people, inside and outside the government, who feel that to blame society for the recent disturbances is a convenient excuse and overlooks the fact that criminal elements have taken ad-. vantage of the racial controversy. Just a few days ago, William H. Parker, chief of the Angeles police department, revealed that many persons who participated in the recent riots in California were veteran criminals. He saidve processed 2,500 of those arrested and found that 76 per cent of them had criminal records prior to the riot There were 26 of these people on parole at the time they were arrested." Most police officers are unhappy about the attitude of the courts in letting criminals go free.

There is no doubt that the emphasis on "police brutality" has been stirring up hostility toward law enforcement and at the same time provoking considerable criticism from those responsible the arrest and punishment of criminals. Judge Norman Elkington of the California Superior Court, in sentencing ex-convict to life I I I imprisonment a few days ago, lashed out at the attention given to allegations "police brutality." The prisoner described by the judge as. "the most vicious criminal" he had ever seen claimed that his civil rights were violated by "brutality" on the part of. the two arresting officers, and the charges had been investigated by the Department of Justice. The judge asked: should policeman disarm a desperate criminal coming at him with a knife? Are there some sporting rules he must follow, such as allowing assailant to draw first blood?"

HARRIS In a little talk I. gave last week called "Are Women People?" I contrasted the American woman and the French woman-and not to the favor of the former.

Since then one of the ladies in the audience has sent me a faded clipping from the magazine Elle, published in Paris, in which a French woman, married to an American and living in Connecticut, makes a similar comparison. Here is her scoreboard of the differences between women here and there: "The French girl knows how to spend her time and amuse herself; the American girl cannot stand to be alone, and always has to belong to a group. The French girl wants to please one man; the American girl wants to be admired by all men. The French girl likes people to admire her salon; the American girl likes people to admire her bathroom.

Furthermore, electors in union and joint school districts, as well as compact independent districts, will have to select persons to run the school and in this day and age, with the federal, state and local school bill mounting steadily, taxpayers should be particularly interested in right people to school board posts. There is no excuse for failure to vote. The laws have been changed SO that votes may be cast from across the country or from a sick bed, providing absentee ballots are obtained on time. There is even less excuse for failing to register.

By RUSSELL WASHINGTON Moscow's abrupt decision to keep "Hello Dolly" off the boards in Russia is bad news. The official interpretation that the show a banned in retaliation against United States war in Viet not NaMICYs taken seriously by people who understand relations between Baker modern superstates.

In the words of one warroom thinker, "What we are faced with is the danger of total cultural warfare." In striking against Broadway's most successful musical, Moscow is over-reacting in an escalation out of all proportion to the original American thrust. The crisis was begun quietly enough last month when Soviet photographic planes flying over Cuba recorded absence of Bobby Fischer from the Casablanca chess tournament. Here, it seemed, was a quiet, concealed move by the United States to strike a sneak blow against Communist culture. The State Department's motives are obscure. The Fischer affair may have been merely a case of bureaucratic bumbling, or it may have been a small probe by the C.I.A.

designed to test Communist cultural defenses. Whatever the case, no one anticipated a violent Communist response. Compared to "Hello Dolly," Fischer is scarcely more than a popgun in the American cultural arsenal. In banning "Hello Dolly" abruptly confronted Washington with a cultural challenge of the deepest gravity. The men here who favor lobbing one into the men's Only Some Students My By WILLIAM F.

BUCKLEY JR. Thus the resolution endorsing the anarchic activities of the Berkeley sit-ins had a demurral, to wit the clause that "some students may have acted irresponsibly" in surrounding and imprisoning for 36 hours a police car that had come to the campus to take a demonstrator to jail. The conservatives tried to get it to read "some students acted irresponsibly," but that proved too much. There is a very rigid hierarchy of disapproval in the glossary of the NSA. When the disapproval is really swinging, one for instance, one "condemns the House Committee on Un-American Activities."

"Culture Can Turn the Tide," defines 93 brilliantly steps up the escalation ladder which precede the dreadful step 94, universal cultural war. (Banning predawn Russian classes on Educational TV, permitting unlimited export of movie magazines to the Soviet Union, etc.) Dr. Hans points out that in refusing to let Fischer go to Cuba to play chess, the United States, unwittingly perhaps, was escalating to step 22. the national A reasoned response the Russians would have been a long article in Pravda denouncing baseball as holliganism. Instead, they escalated immediately to Step 67.

the enemy's road Even at this level, Dr. Hans points out, effective cultural warfare can be waged without intense danger of wiping out all culture. To ban further tours by the Bolshoi, for example, would invite further escalation by the Russians. The reasoned response would be to bed the troupe in sheets full of cracker crumbs, house them in hotel-rooms next to convention parties, and steer them through a program of rigorously planned activity such as Doris Day movies, visits to the Senate and afternoon TV game shows. Dr.

Hans' critics have vilified him for daring to think about ways of making culture an effective weapon of the state. As the Russians have shown again, however, culture in the era of the superstate is as much an instrument of policy as the I.C.B.M. and the secret agent. As Dr. Hans puts it, "You can't make an omelet without cracking a few eggheads." (C) N.

Y. Times News Service The National Students Association has met again at Madison, Wisconsin, in order to renew its habitual demands that the United States accelerate its march towards at home, and neutralism abroad. Specifically, the Convention ruled that the dren as her equals (and often as better than the husband). The French girl doesn't like to change her residence; the American girl is constantly on the move for a "better" place. The French girl respects the opinions of her husband, and usually accepts them; the American girl often contradicts her husband in public, and ignores him in private.

The French girl likes her husband to help her select clothes; the American girl doesn't believe a bit in her husband's taste. The French girl likes to give her clothes a personal, elegant touch without ostentation; the American girl likes to dress the same as everybody else, especially the of the richest neighbor. The French girl has little or no interest in public affairs; the American girl belongs to woman's clubs and organizations. The French girl thinks that American movies are unrealistic; the American girl swallows American movies whole. United States owes (a) a better living to every American student, (b) more toleration to A me erican (and for that matter, foreign) Com u- nists, and (c) an apology to the Dominican Republic for Buckley saving their country from the Communists.

The headline issue was the support the Convention gave to the Berkely sit-ins of last December. These were officially classified as "legitimate and responsible" on the grounds that the normal channels of redress had been exhausted. are two points worth noting about the NSA's meeting. One is that common sense was represented in Madison, and even made a little progress. Danny Boggs of Harvard, and Carl Weitman of CCNY, two very bright and persuasive gentlemen, actually carried the day on one crucial issue by persuading the convention to vote that no demonstration should "violate the rights of other people." It is not, to be sure, exactly clear what rights other people have nowadays, but such as they are, they should be respected, cording to the National Stu- dents Association.
