LBJ schedules Asian summit WASHINGTON (AP)--President Johnson will fly to the Philippines in about three weeks for a seven-nation summit conference on the Vietnamese war. A aim will be to press an allied peace offensive.

'Announcement of the mile trip immediately stirred speculation as to whether Johnson might visit embattled South Viet Nam itself as well as other Far Eastern nations. His arrival in the Philippines on or about Oct. 18 will put him within 1,000 miles of Saigon and the land more than $10,000 American troops are involved in increasingly violent conflict with Communist-led forces. Great Importance That the trip has great domestic political importance for the President seetns obvious. It will be the first transoceanic journey as chief executive to a foreign capital--in the midst of this fall's congressional election campaigns.

conference was publicly called Monday night by President Ferdinand E. Marcos of the Philippines to include all countries with military forces engaged on the allied side in the conflict. The first White House reaction was to describe Johnson as interested. Keep secret The matter had been talked about by Johnson and Marcos when the Philippine leader visited Washington within the last two weeks--Sept. 14-16.

The project was a well-kept secret. Then the White House dropped its coy reaction Tuesday and announced: Johnson is glad to agree to this invitation and will be glad to join the meeting of the other chiefs of slate or government in the Philippines on or after Oct. 18." The other participating nations include the Philippines, with 200 troops in South Viet Nam and 2,000 going there; South Korea, with 39,000 troops; Australia, New Zealand, 200; Thailand, fewer than 100; and South Viet Nam itself with 707,000, including 320,000 regular forces. Ctairtnan J.W. Fulbright, D- of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee said -this makeup sounds to him like "an expanded Honolulu reference to Johnson's Hawaii talks with the top South Vietnamese leaders.

The Arkansan a critic of U.S. policy in Viet Nam, said the Manila imeeing should be more useful if such nations as Japan, India and Pakistan took part in it. Military emphasis Marcos, announcing the conference in Honolulu, said the military situation would be reviewed but that the emphasis would be on political, economic and diplomatic aspects of the Vietnamese conflict. The projected conference, which other invited government chiefs also quickly accepted, coincides with designation by Pope Paul VI of October as a month of prayer for peace. Johnson is known to be responsive to such a move by the pontiff.

It follows closely the U.S. proposal in the United Nations last week for parallel actions by the United States and North Viet Nam to scale down the conflict. In a speech by U.S Ambassador Arthur J. Goldberg, the United States offered to stop bombing North Viet Nam if the North Vietnamese would agree to reduce infiltration into South Viet Nam.

Light action In a day of geneally light and scattered ground action, South Korean troops drew special attention: --The Tiger Division, battling Communist units in the Phu Cat Mountains near the central coast, announced it has killed 321 and captured 112 in a five- day operation. Korean losses were reported light.

--Four thousand more troops join the White Hnvse Division, boosting the Korean enrolment in Viet Nam to 36,500.

Vatican team in Viet Nam VATICAN CITY (AP) A special Vatican mission flew to Viet Nam on Church business Tuesday but with powers to seek new ways for Pope Paul VI to help bring peace to that war- torn land. The throe-man mission seen as a new move in Hit- Pope's peace campaign. Departure of the high-level mission came a week after the Pope's plea in his latest cicyclical foi a negotiated end to Ihc Viel Nam conflict.

In a one-paragraph announcement, the Vatican said only that the mission would lake part in an extraordinary conference to study the Roman Catholic Cliurch problems in Soulti Viet Nam. But Vatican sources, the makeup of the mission, and a departure statement by the head of (he delegation, Arch- bishop Sergio Pignedoli, made it clear the mission would have broader powers. One objective was a settlement to end the political conflict between Buddhists and the 1.8 million Catholics in South Viet Nam as a step toward ending all conflict Itiere. Another goal was reported to be to seek new ideas in the very Ihealcr of the Viet Nam war that would help Pope Paul in his campaign to slop the fighting. Vatican informants pointed out thai ii was highly significant lhat two of the three members of the mission--Archbishop Pig- nodoli and the Rt.

Vicious Ine: islands MIAMI, Fla. (AP)-Hurricane Inez, one of the most powerful storms of the season with 120-mile winds, crashed through the tropic islands of Guadeloupe Tuesday and headed for the open Caribbean.

For hours, howling winds, slashing rains and pounding surf battered the French possession, where 295,000 people live. Communications were shaky; there were no immediate reports of damage to the vast sugar and coffee plantations. The Weather Bureau said the highest wjnds recorded were 80 miles an hour but the peak winds surely gusted higher. As the tightly wound storm burst into the Caribbean, where it cannot escape without striking land again, the thickly populated tourist centers of the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico were put under a hurricane watch. If the storm held to its 15 m.p.h.

westerly its dead-calm, center will move 50 nu'les south of St. Croix on the Virgin Islands during the night, the Weather Bureau said. At midafternoon, the center of the hurricane churned about 330 miles east southeast of San Juan, P.R., and 1.300 i east-southeast of Miami. Pan American World Airways canceled flights to the Leeward Islands. Hurricane Cleo, which two years ago raked the entire eastern coast of Florida, inflicting millions of dollars in damage, churned through Guadeloupe on Aug.

22, 1964, wiping out many sugar and coffee plantations. In addition to killing 14, 40 persons were injured. Cleo's peak winds were clocked at 81 m.p.h. Inez was still too far away for forecasters to speculate ori chances of it reaching the U.S. mainland.

Meanwhile, another potential storm popped up far out in the Atlantic. Weather satellite pictures showed evidence of an easterly wave 1,000 miles east of Trinidad near the coast of Venezuela. These bands of bad weather sometimes develop into tropical storms. Katzenbach backs U.S. foreign policy WASHINGTON (AP)-Nicholas Katzenbach wholeheartedly suported U.S.

foreign policy Tuesday but promised not to become a yes man as undersecretary of state. The Seriate Foreign Relations Committee suspended judgment on tiis nomination to the No. 2 post in the State Department. Committee Chairman J. W.

Fulbright, at first said the committee had approved Katzenbach's appointment, but then reported the approval was being suspended because of an objection by Sen, Eugene J. McCarthy, D-Minn. Fulbright said McCarthy, zho was not at the committee session, had "an important question" he wanted to ask Katzenbach. So, Fulbright said, the committee suspended action pending another hearing. At Tuesday's hearing, Kul- bright a cqueslioned whether Katzenbach, now attorney general, could fulfill the role of devil's advocate--skeptical challenger of policy decisions--within Stale Department councils.

"I didn't realize you were so completely and unreservedly devoted to our present policy," said Fulbright. "I don't think you should be quite so subservient to our present policy." Democratic a Mike Mansfield of Montana, concerned about loo much of a a i i of view i Slate urged the devil's advocate role on Katzenbach. Mansfield, also a member of the committee, recalled that the man Katzenbach is replacing Undersecretarz of State George W. Ball had performed such a function. "I would hope that the devil's advocate would not be lost with your appointment.

I hope you will undertake that responsibility so the President can have the benefit of all sides of all questions," Mansfield said. Katzenbach indicated he would try, and said that as attorney general when all his advisers are in agreement on an issue. "That's when I get nervous." No votes were cast against Katzenbach's nomination, the committee reported. If the Senate concurs, Katzenbach will become the No. 2 man in the department, just below Secretary of State Dean Rusk.

He told the senators: "I have the greatest admiration for the secretary." Asked whether he generally agrees with the foreign policy as presented by Rusk, Katzenbach replied: "Oh, yes. I do. Definitely." Fulbright, who has crossed swords with Husk on the issue of Viet Nam, asked Katzenbach with a frown: "What is it about the secretary that inspires such profound admiration? 11 Information please --Supreme Court Center of Debate, page 3. --Hottlcs on Ihu move page 3. --Slroudsburg man convicted of larceny, page 11.
