They said they alst did not approve the sending of Haig's as sistant secretary of state-designate foi European affairs, Lawrence Eagle-burger, to inform the European allies of United States concern over the arming of these rebels. declaration and disavowal The White House, for instance, recently rejected a State Department official's remarks on EI Salvador and the press and also disavowed a National Security Council staff member's extreme assertions on the Soviets and detente. Before that, there were rollbacks of statements by the defense secretary on neutron warheads and by the secretary of the Navy on the strategic arms limitation treaty.

On a broader level, senior White House officials were unhappy with what they felt to be ill-timed and ill-considered actions by Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig which placed the brightest spot modern times. In the Carter administration, the crisis management structure was headed by Zbigniew Brzezinski, the national security adviser. Also, top-ranked White House aides have taken direct control over coordinating the president's preparations for foreign trips. The action came because President Reagan and his senior assistants were dissatisfied with the way the State Department handled preparations for Reagan's recent visit to Canada, White House officials said.

"I'm not sure we're at the end of this," said a knowledgeable Reagan official "The process is still evolving." Disarray and disputes in making na WfeshingtM Post News Swlct D.G The still-young Reagan administration is struggling to rid its national security apparatus of disarray, caused by uncertainty over who is in charge, by a few ill-chosen statements, and by Washington's traditional turf fights at the top. Partly in an effort to bring harmony to the Reagan high command, it has been decided that Vice-President George Bush will be placed in charge of a new structure for national-security crisis management, say senior presidential assistants. This assignment will amount to an unprecedented role for a vice-president in tional security decisions are by no means unique to the Reagan administration. Similar problems plagued Jimmy Carter throughout most of his four years and became a campaign issue upon which Reagan built himself a new foundation of political capital. Reagan officials boasted that they were going to "hit the-ground running" and "speak with one voice." Declaration and disavowal Instead, many of the same officials have viewed with displeasure and dismay those administration policy pronouncements that all too often have appeared in public to be a two-step process: If George Bush Reagan to launch assault on waste ALL STORES (EXCEPT BERGEN MALL) OPEN SUNDAY 12 NOON 'TIL 5 P.M.

SPINS' a unit of Allied stores ones along with the bad ones while spending over two months looking for politically palatable rubber-toothed junkyard Reagan's economic program, which has had top priority almost to the exclusion of other initiatives in the first two months of his presidency, includes four distinct parts: proposed budget cuts of nearly $50 billion; a three-year, 30-percent income tax cut; drastic pruning of government regulations; and a ed effort to stabilize the money supply. The new campaign, Brady said, "really is the unspoken fifth leg of the economic program because if you need to cut $32 million to meet your spending goals and you can find $32 million in waste and fraud, you don't have to find other things to cut" such as services or aid programs. $32 million called hypothetical The $32 million, he said, was a hypothetical figure. Tomorrow, Reagan will bid farewell to Elmer B. Staats, who retired this month as comptroller general of the United States.

For 15 years, Staats headed the General Accounting whose auditors routinely investigate federal grams and agencies and report to Congress on millions and even billions of dollars they believe are being misspent. The White House is considering the names of eight people a special congressional committee recommended as possible replacements for Staats. In an effort to preserve the GAO's independence from political partisanship, the comptroller general is named to a 15-year term. WASHINGTON, P.C. (AP) President Reagan is about to launch an assault on waste and fraud in federal programs as the "unspoken fifth leg of his economic program," White House Press Secretary James S.

Brady said yesterday. The presidential spokesman said the attack would be opened on several fronts in the next couple of weeks and would be highlighted by the filing of charges in an unspecified number of major fraud investigations that have been underway for months or even years. Won't identify targets He refused to be specific, saying, "we. don't want anyone to escape" before the government is ready to move against its suspects. Nor would Brady give any indication of how much federal money may be involved.

But the investigations involved are some that were being conducted by independent inspectors' in various departments. Reagan summarily fired the 15 supposedly nonpartisan agency watchdogs because, as Brady said at the time, the president wanted the people in those jobs to be "meaner than a junkyard dog." At least a few of those appointed during Jimmy Carter's administration apparently have met Reagan's test because Brady said Saturday he expected some of the departmental sleuths to be reappointed. The firing of the 15 inspectors was criticized last Thursday by Rep. John Dingell, chairman of the House investigations subcommittee. He said "all the president has done so far is sacked the inspector generals the good Wife ATARI VIDEO COMPUTER SYSTEM 165 Sharpen your mental skills and physical coordination and have fun too with this complete video package.
