But it will be a bleak Thanksgiving- for he mystery sinking of the ketch -Eluebelle. By TED LEWIS Washington, Nov. 22. The morale problem among reservists and their families finally stirred the Pentagon today to some action.

Jt officially spelled out a procedure whereby reservists on active duty can get out on family hardship grounds or if they perform essential community services in civilian life, such as working in a fire department or police force. The Defense Department memorandum was confined only to one problem. But it was the first time' any official notice has been taken of the thousands of complaints from reservists and their wives 7 Fv 1 mzJTM 'a- that have been snowballing in the last month. This Pentagon action, however, is important and a Thanksgiving Day break for confused reservists, uncertain about how long they must remain on active duty, upset over training camp conditions and doubtful that the Berlin crisis is serious enough to warrant their being called up. It is important because it means that other questions posed by reservists are likely to be answered officially.

Tliere is already talk; that a clear-cut explanation from Secretary of Defense McXamara will be forthcoming' concerning why it was necessary to call up 155,000 reservists in the first place. There also is reported in the works an official statement to the effect that equipment shortages, which have raised hob with reservists' morale, are being ironed out.

The FBI was investigating the mote possibility" that Harvey had a criminal co-conspirator who was not aboard the ketch. The theory was that Harvey might never have intended to be rescued by a merchant ship, planning instead to rendezvous with another small boat in a conspiracy to collect on a $50,000 double indemnity life insurance policy on himself as well as a JJO.Wni double indemnity policy on his wife.

That does not mean he will not try to give official guidance. It might even lie better if he just etplained that no promise can be made as to when they will start going home and so they and their families had best plan on a year the present statutory limit.

What Seems Obvious Becomes Obscure The forthcoming explanations will pretty much state what has seemed obvious to the Pentagon and apparently to President Kennedy. From the flood letter reaching the Administration, it is now realized that what is obvious here is not obvious to many reservists and their families. For example, just because the Berlin crisis seems to have slowed down, demands are increasing to have the reservists released. This is on the wrong assumption that the military manpower buildup ordered last August was solely because of Berlin. Kennedy explained in his July 25 "crisis" message to Congress that a rush manpower buildup, particularly in conventional war forces, was required, not only because of Berlin but to meet any cold war crisis in any part of the world.

Not necessarily this year, either. But the impression got around that but for Berlin, there would have been no buildup. So, when it appeared that the Berlin crisis had softened, hopeful families started expecting that reservists might even be home by Christmas. The President, as the nation's leader, has been strangely silent on this subject since July 25, although some of his advisers thought raft. The sailors bought the doll for $H4 74.

It would have made considerable sense for Kennedy to have chosen the night before Thanksgiving to set families straight. But instead of a "fireside chat," such as F.

R. probably would have I given, the President contented himself with the usual Thanksgiving Day proclamation about how we should all be grateful for "the blessings of faith and health and for the imperishable spiritual gifts of love and hope." The Old Army Way of Doing Things From the Capital Circus mailbag's letters from reservists: "In your column Capital Circus dated Nov. 14. you quoted a few reservists who are complaining about being activated.

"At this time, I would like to give you an insight into our 'wonderful world of make-believe. Previous to my activation, I was a secondary teacher in a Midwestern state. The subjects 1 taught included mathematics, science, English and social studies. "During October, I received orders to report as an IBM operator here at Andrews Air Force Base. I wrote numerous letters explaining that 1 did not hold an AFSC (Air Force Specialty Classification) for IBM operator in the Air Force.

The replies told me that, because I was an IBM operator in 1955 as a civilian, I qualified. "Andrews was overcrowded, so they proceeded to send us to quarters at Boiling Air Force Base, 10 miles away. Thus, we became commuters each day. "'Off to work we go" is a line from the fantasy picture 'Snow and that is v. hat our work is fantasy.

About ten of us were recalled to run IBMs. There is only one difficulty we don't have any IBM machines to run! "Evidently, we were recalled to run Imaginary ones and thus save the taxpayers the expense of renting them. This seems logical." (Name withheld on request.) From Cpl. Alan W. Fulmer, Fort Devens, "No one has even had the decency to tell us or our families just how lone we have to put up with this second disruption in our lives for the sake of the military.

One point you might like to tell some of the Democrats about is that when the President's face appeared in a training film the other day. he was so loudly booed that the company commander had to call the men to attention to quiet them down.
