Leonid Brezhnev is slated to be reelected the party's secretary general as scheduled, and no one suggested it might be more meaningful if he had an opponent. But in the weeks and months and years ahead it is probable that someone in Soviet Armenia will ask: "Whatever became of Nagush?"

They lack leadership, organization, and political power. As Mayor Daley has pointed out, very few of the residents of this area can be called "derelicts." They are retired men living on small income, or men with physical ailments, or men who were told they had paid their debt to society.

THE TRIBUNE CREDO CATS, HOUSE What becomes of the resident, or house, cats employed by the" International Amphitheater during the yearly dog show? Well, this grimalkin corps, variously toted from eight to 13 in number by different employes, mostly rest on their laurels while the dogs are having their two days. It was estimated that seven to 12 of these cats, depending on whose cat count you take, loll around room 4, have an occasional nip of sustenance, and lie to each other about the dogs they have whipped in their day. The wide variance in total cats, it is believed, may be explained bythe companion cats, which drop in occasionally for little visits, and to sample the lavish table set by William Wood Prince. Twelve of the 13 cats, if you accept this total, are lady cats. The 13th, Red, a heavyweight Thomas cat, is a veteran of at least 283 grueling fights and has no intention of hanging up his gloves.

His well-muscled ears are deeply cauliflowered, and head, neck, and even his tail have been copiously chomped by incisors of various opponents.

Kerner, Mayor Daley, Senator Douglas, spokesmen for nine western suburbs, and millions of others in a cordial welcome to Dr. Glenn T. Seaborg, chairman of the Atomic Energy commission, and the other members of the AEC team touring sites proposed for a new 375 million dollar atom smasher.

The group will spend this morning inspecting the site near Weston, a community east of Batavia and south of West Chicago. The short list of eligible sites includes, besides Weston, Upton, N. Denver; Sacramento, Ann Arbor, and Madison, Wis. Withdrawal of South Barrington, EL, from consideration as a result of local protest did not improve Illinois' chances to obtain this much wanted installation, but it should not have hurt them appreciably, either. The Weston site is more nearly level and has a surface closer to bedrock than the South Barrington site, with which it shares the major qualifications common to both.

The competing sites outside of Illinois do not fully share these major qualifications. The Atomic Energy commission wants the new proton accelerator to be near a major concentration of industry and scientific personnel, so that the facility may exchange stimulus and support with an established roup of specialists. The site should rmvenient for jet-age travelers. If it is near another working group of AEC scientists such as those at Argonne National laboratory, so much the better.

"Red arrived cursing at the top of his voice," said Mr. FarrelL "He was perspiring freely, and you could see he had had a good workout and was ready to challenge these dogs one by one or all 3,300 of them altogether. He, just got to the door of the arena, and began to hiss horrible abuse at these dogs. It took six of my best men to take him from the hall and persuade him that this was not the time to stamp out dogs." Red, of course, is not strictly a house cat, as he is responsible for the entire yards, and takes his work quite seriously. Mert Thayer, manager of the building, was lavish in his praise of the cat corps, and said they had run up a tremendous score in mice in the old days.

"Of course," he added, "they are so efficient that you seldom see a mouse any more, except maybe an ill-advised field mouse." He added that these cats were vastly different from a 'personal house cat which he had at his home. "This cat had an entirely wrong idea about the game," said Mr. Thayer. "He thought it was his duty to deliver us mice. demonstrations and Fulbright committee hearings are dampening the morale of our troops and the South Vietnamese citizenry.

"No," he answered, "I doubt that the demonstrations and debates have had much effect on our fighting men. They are far too busy fighting the enemy to have the leisure to reflect very much on these activities of the home front. I also doubt that these events affect the mass of the people of Viet Nam, who, outside the President with a sense of humor!

This contention was dolefully documented gested that everyone excepting his administration sacrifice by It was one of Franco's generals, Emilio Mola, who coined the phrase "fifth column" during the Spanish civil war of 1936-39. Leading four columns against Madrid, he predicted that the city would be taken from within by a fifth column of sympathizers. The Saigon government of South Viet Nam has to contend with its fifth column, too. While the loyal Vietnamese army, with massive American forces in the lead, attempts to fight the Communists in the field, its rear is imperiled by chaos generated by Buddhist conspirators, communist undercover agitators, war-weary elements of the population, refugees driven to the capital from their homes, and packs of young students who are highly suggestible to incitation to riot. Yesterday this disorderly rabble savagely beat an American and then kidnaped him.

An army jeep was burned in the streets. The plant of a Saigon newspaper was reduced to wreckage. The police, as usual, resorted to tear gas grenades to disperse the rioters, but the formless pack merely retreats into the pagodas, the alleys and the shadows, re-forms, and is soon back in action. For four successive nights "the street" has been mobilized for anti-government and anti-American demonstrations. It is no coincidence that every time American arms show promise of impressive success against the Viet Cong guerrillas and the communist North Vietnamese regulars, the fifth column is brought into action to disrupt the rear and any stable base of government.

The cry this time is that the military government of Gen. Ky must yield to a "civilian" regime namely, the representatives of those very elements which have been sent into the streets to hamstring effective military action. What is American policy, if any, in response to this contrived sabotage? It is to put on an elaborate pretense of "neutrality," as if the United States could be totally indifferent to the outcome of this test of force between the army and government we support and the fifth column which is out to undercut the American effort to keep communism in check. Gen. Westmoreland's garrison in Saigon is under orders to keep hands off.

At Da Nang, a town to the north adjoining the big American coastal base, American troops are pulled back into their compounds while rebel Vietnamese troops confront loyal elements of Gen.

Yes, in this land of ours all men have and are entitled to the right to speak out as they see fit. But what classic irony that those who beat the drums for peace at almost any price may actually be responsible for extending the war.

GANDHI'S CRITICISM Chicago, April i The prime minister of India, Mrs. Indira Gandhi, had no more than been assured of our handout when she acted true to form, along with other foreign aid recipients, and began to criticize the United States. Before she took off for Moscow, she told us we should have prolonged the ban on bombing of North Viet Nam, thereby placing the blame for continuing the war not on the Communists but on us. It sort of makes us wonder if there isn't a clause in the contract that they receive the aid only if they promise to blast us for something to make the Communists look good and us bad.

IDLE LAND FOR CONSERVATION Moline, 111., April 4 In a recent letter one of your contributors suggested that it might be p6ssible to educate land owners to leave a certain amount of land in its natural state for the benefit of game birds. I am neither a farmer nor a hunter, but I am a conservationist. Why expect farmers to donate thickets, when the county, state, and federal highways all have land set aside over and above the width of the road which could be planted and left untouched? The grooming of these roadsides and median strips is expensive and a waste of money. The next time you drive an interstate highway, pay attention to the unused land on either side and in the middle. Why expect individuals to provide land when we have so much land lying waste that could be used for that purpose? All wildlife would benefit, not just the hunted kinds.

They maul American service men in the streets. The parents of these boys are not going to take it kindly that the United States government is abandoning their sons and offering them up as sacrifices to the mob, while all the progress of the war goes down the drain. It is more than time for Washington to realize that the war can be lost more easily behind the lines than at the point of contact in the field. American troops should be given the go-ahead to clean up the mess behind their backs and reestablish necessary security so that the field forces can get on with their job. Under the conditions now prevailing, our troops are as frustrated as a slice of bread sandwiched between two layers of jelly.

Indian reservations are exempt. They have their own laws and customs. No crisis is likely soon. But the complexity of equal rights is something to contemplate.

Some weeks before the Soviet Union opened its annual Communist party congress in Moscow, Nagush K. Arutyunan, a responsible figure in the soviet political hierarchy, apparently decided to live dangerously.

The chief of the Armenian soviet socialist republic came out in favor of free elections. Had Arutyunan, a former university rector, condemned Lenin or motherhood the delegates to his own Armenian party congress could not have been more shocked. Communist elections are cut and dried. It's against communist ideology even to suggest a contest The party presents a single list of candidates. The only concern of a candidate is how many tenths of one per cent his vote tops 99 per cent.
