The heads of three powerful state delegations also are throwing their weight behind McCor- mack's plans. They are Representative Eman-sel Celler, D.N.Y., William Green, and Harry Sheppard, Calif. Green or Sheppard may be chairman of the steering committee. Another possibility is Representative Richard Boiling, who is running for majority leader but has only an outside chance of getting it. when he becomes Speaker of the cipline, the committee was allowed to gradually lapse by the late House next month.

The aim is to avert close-vote defeats as occurred on three key measures in this year's session due to the unforeseen absence of Democratic legislators. notably medical care for the aged The Man Who Has Everything under Social Security, federal aid for colleges, and liberalization of Et tu, Nehru! Nehru grovels to the Reds, flouts the United States, poses as an advocate of peace, and bombs into submission inhabitants of tiny Goa, Portuguese territory for four centuries. Goa and enclaves, with 600.000 population, could not possibly menace India with its population of more than 400.000,000. Millions in India never heard of Goa and as far as capturing it they couldn't care less. A majority of Hindus within the area are farmers, uneducated and with no interest politics.

Nehru ordered the aggression well knowing that the little territory could not hold out against his bombs, motorized cannon and unlimited numbers of soldiers. He has shown no such warlike disposition regarding Red China's menacing thrusts since, like any foreign trade barriers. STRONGER CONTROL In discussing his plans with other Democratic leaders, McCormack is outlining the following major changes: Committee chairmen to have small opponent in which risk is light. This great ''neutralist" who has urged compromises and conferences on others paid no attention to the United States or to opposition in the U. N.

He summarily and arrogantly rejected negotiations. The West opposed the attack, Red regimes screamed their delight. Nehru has exploded a small firecracker and set the powder train for a conflagration. In Indonesia, as Goa was overrun by Nehru's soldiers, President Sukarno called his people to mobilization for a fight against Dutch holdings. All he needed was Nehru's example.

With the geographical compactness gone, Three-I members found it increasingly difficult to make both ends meet financially. Travel costs exhausted the treasuries.

For many years, Davenport was a member of the Three-I but the financial burden proved to be too heavy to continue after the 1958 season. Davenport, under the Quad-City banner, moved into the Class Midwest League in 1960 and has enjoyed financial stability during the past two seasons. The class Midwest League will flourish even more with the addition of Cedar Rapids, Burlington, and possibly Fox Cities (Appleton) from the old Three-I to form a 10-club league for this season.

It is interesting to compare what Mr. Adzhubei said to President Kennedy in his recent interview with the real life facts ex ment too independent. Moscow's Eastern European Empire isn't what it used to be. Stalin couldn't keep Tito in line and Yugoslavia became the first Soviet satellite to win its independence. Tito wasn't anti-Communist; he just wanted to pursue Communism Yugoslavia's way.

Decision of the Three-I League to suspend operations for the 1962 season removes the oldest class circuit in the nation from the baseball ranks. Three-I League isn't dead. It did not disband, merely calling a year's moratorium with hopes of reviving in 1963 when it expected the minor league structure throughout the country will undergo a realignment at the direction of the major leagues. Organized in 1901, the Thrce-I gained its name because cities constituting the league were in Iowa, Illinois and Indiana.

Gilpatrick has mitted the Pentagon "may have been wrong" in mobilizing Reserves when no shooting crisis existed. While it is refreshing to have a mistake admitted, the fact is the Pentagon booted the mobilization in a way that raises questions as to the Department's effectiveness. Going on with Gilpatrick: myself, was under the belief earlier that we could successfully mobilize and demobilize Reservists to meet crises in this cold-war period.

The shoving of 156,000 men into camps with equipment lacking, with no training program set up, was certain to have serious repercussions.

Of all the departments of Government, Defense should be ready for emergencies. Equipping men should be routine. Raising the question of cutting down National Guard and Organized Reserves is only a transparent alibi that it had to take such extreme!

I picked up cannon shells beside tiny cots in a maternity ward and saw-pools of blood where three children died, one of them in its mother's arms. Thirteen women were wounded in the attack. "In a mortuary lay the huddled body of a two-year-old child. The other children were taken by their families for burial. "Also in the mortuary I saw the bodies of two African men civilians killed when the jets fired on a busv market near the hospital." "As I drove to the Shinkolobwe hospital, from hundreds of yards away I could see a Red Cross nainted on the roof and it obviously had been there for a long time.

"A hundred yards away was a wrecked, schoolhouse." That's the kind of a war that has been waged in Katanga with U. S. assistance. It seems to be drawing to its bloody close since the smaller Katanga forces cannot hold out against bombers and superior strength of the United Nations. A truce which seems near can be welcomed from the standpoint of saving lives but entry of the United Nations into a civil war assuredly is beyond the legitimate purposes of the organization.
