TEMPERATURES MOVE UP TIME Ford Says President Sought to Smother the News Coverage GOES BACK TO TRUMAN Many Quotations Are Given to Show the Nature of Commitment (O 1965 New York Times News Service) Washington Republicans in the House of Representatives broke President Johnsons consensus yesterday with a sharp attack on his conduct of the Vietnamese war. They said he had encouraged Communist miscalculation of American intentions by his 1964 campaign oratory, and that he now seemed to discard the independence of South Vietnam as an objective of the war. A Lack of Candor In a White Paper issued a day early to steal a march on the White House, the Republicans also charged the Kennedy and Johnson administrations with an uncerfain policy in Vietnam and with a lack of candor and misleading statements about the progress of the ar. There was no merit, the re port said, to Johnson's assertions that the American military involvement in South Vietnam had been launched by former President Dwight D. Eisenhow er.

Instead, the Republicans stated, Johnson was directly responsible for committing substantial numbers of American troop units to ground combat with the Viet Cong. Calls News Session The White Paper had been scheduled for release at 11 oclock this morning, but Johnson scheduled a presidential news conference for 10 a. m. Rep. Gerald R.

Ford the House minority leader. said he and his colleagues viewed that as a deliberate attempt to smother the coverage of their document. They then released it and rescheduled their own news conference for 1:30 p. m. today, in order to rebut whatever Johnson might say about the Republican charges.

The G. O. P. charges, complied in a 33-page report, constituted the strongest Republican challenge to Johnson's conduct of the Vietnamese war, But the authors also stated: All Americans must support whatever action is needed to put a stop to Communist aggression and to make safe the freedom and independence of South Vietnam. Criticism Can Help But criticism of the administration when well-founded, the document concluded, can help in the attainment of the nations objective without unnecessary, loss or delay.

Nevertheless, the White Paper represented hoth a sharp attack on the Democratic administration and differences of opinion within the Republican party itself. General Eisenhower, for instance, has denied any differences between himself and Johnson. Senate Republicans, particularly Everett McKinley Dirk-sen of Illinois, the minority leader, have generally stood nearer Johnson than the House Republicans. The Senate group did not join in the authorship of the White Paper. The document maintained an unpolemical tone of objectivity and went into minute historical 'Continued on Face 29 (PICTURE ON PAGE 31 A man was found shot to death late last night in his motor car in the 1000 block on Tracy avenue.

Police identified the victim as Robert E. Kerby, 22, of 517 East Short avenue. Independence. Credit cards and identification cards bearing that name were found in the middle of Tracy, about 50 feet north of Kerby's car, a late American sports model. In Arm and Rack The car was parked on the east side of Tracy just north of Eleventh street.

Kerby was in the passenger seat. He wore slacks and a sportshirt. He was shot at least twice, once in the left arm and onee in the left side of his back, apparently by a small-caliber weapon. A ring on his right hand appeared to have been pulled to the knuckle, then abandoned. His left rear and left side pockets were turned inside out and a band of white skin around his left wrist indicated a wristwatch had been removed.

No wallet was found. On the floor behind the front seat was a sack qf groceries. A Call to Police Police received an anonymous report at 11 oclock of a possible shooting in the area. They questioned persons in the neighborhood, but did not find the caller. According to a neighbor, Kerby managed the Northeast Auto Parts store at 4600 Independence avenue, and he left home about 8 o'clock to attend a motor car auction in Kansas City.

J. Scholarship Plan Endorsed Washington (AP) The Senate education subcommittee yesterday decided to go along with President Johnson's proposal for a 70-million-dollar scholarship program for college students from low-income families. However, it voted to increase the maximum scholarship to $1,000 a year for a student in the upper half of his class scholastically. Johnson had recommended an $800 ceiling. The subcommittee made the decision as it continued its protracted consideration of the administration's 250-mil-lion-dollar higher education bill.

Phone Sunday Want Ads in before noon Saturday. BA. Adv. Moscow (AP) The North Vietnamese laid down yesterday a condition that the United States must agree to a troop withdrawal from Vietnam before there can be any negotiations to end the war. The condition came in a statement in Russian by the North Vietnamese embassy in Moscow.

It was not clear whether the Hanoi regime wanted the troop withdrawal before any talks begin, but it removed any doubt that it wanted at least a U. S. commitment for a withdrawal. Firm U. S.

Stand The statement also said North Vietnam demands that the United States abandon the government in Saigon. The United States has said it will not do this. The statement was because of reports that followed a talk the North Vietnamese ambassador in Moscow, Nguyen Van Kinh, had last week with Lord Fenner Brockway, chairman of the British Council for Peace in Vietnam. Brockway told reporters later the ambassador said North Vietnam had never Insisted on total withdrawal of American forces as a precondition for talks. Brock ways report left no doubt that Hanoi still considered a United States withdrawal to be the essential end result.

Will Stay On The possibility Brockway raised was that talks could begin without a withdrawal although it was noted the United States would not talk if talking meant a commitment to withdraw. Interviewed by telephone at the Black Sea resort of Sochi, Brockway repeated that the North Vietnamese ambassador had told him an American troop withdrawal did not have to precede the talks. Brockway said he did not want to misrepresent the North Vietnamese position and was sure he had not done so. The account given by Brockway did not directly contradict the embassy's statement that withdrawal must be agreed TO MEET O.V STRIKE Mediators to Confer With Union And American Motors Kenosha, Wis.

The vote was 67 to 27.

Depressing as it was to have to ask for approval of the compromise measure, said Sen. J. W. Fulbright We may have laid the groundwork for more thorough reforms next year. Protest by Morse To this.

Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) protested that passage would be a Senate surrender, a capitulation to the House and the administration, and another retreat on the same old foreign aid program that has produced little or nothing, but stonings, burnings and assaults on American property in many parts of the world. The Senate finally dropped its fight to keep two amendments aimed at foreign aid reform after It conferences with the House to resolve differences in the version passed by each body. The arguing extended over two months. Fulbright, chairman of the Senate foreign relations committee and floor manager of the bill, authored one amendment and Morse the other.

For a Review Now Voicing his unhappiness over the compromise. Fulbright said a review of the foreign aid program was long overdue and should be started now.

As an example of the computers effectiveness, a surprised and frightened New York City housewife was forced to the side of the road yesterday and was suddenly engulfed by the police and reporters for whom the system was being demonstrated. She readily acknowledged that, just as the computer had reported, she had passed a traffic light more than a year ago and had failed to appear in court. So far the computer, employed on a limited and experimental basis, has come np with 2.000 scofflaws similar to the housewife. More than 100 arrests have been made.

Sometimes, to get a laugh, I call him a human bean. You have a pet bean? they inquire. Yes, I say, but not, of course, an ordinary bean. Pancho is a jumping bean. AT this point a clicking is heard, and I take from my pocket a little plastic box containing four jumping beans.

Which one is Pancho? an observer will ask. What do you care? is the natural rejoiner. As a matter of fact, I am not sure which bean is Pancho, but he is the leader of the pack, if that is what jumping beans come in. All I know is that if you want a neat, clean, unobtrusive pet, the jumping bean is the man for you. IN the short time that we have had Pancho and his friends I can say that there have been no complaints from the neighbors about their flower gardens being trampled.

It has not been necessary to put newspapers on the floor, to buy expensive pet foods, invest in rabie3 shots or city licenses, or send them to obedience school.

Is Pancho, they will say, a Chihuahua or one of those bright little breeds from South of the Border? A Mexican hairless, for example? He is indeed hairless; I say and probably Mexican, although I prefer merely to say that he is of Latin extraction. And he barks to be let out? NO, I say, he clicks. A clicking dog? they inquire.
