They go after beauty restaurants, bars, small laundries, bowling alleys entertainment centers and hundreds; of small factories now heavily dotting big city Suburbs. Special police units have been set up in some communities and Robert Kennedy's Department of Justice quietly has special probes scalpeling" into the dummy onion field. This 'is but one of the many over-all national methodical drives the Attorney General has so carefully devised. These campaigns will become the battle strategy for a federal operation which could take the Justice Departs ment a decade. So much time has gone by, another decade Is worth the spending.

But there is a iimit to federal manpower and Bob Kennedy has 45 lawyers now assigned to the Organized Crime section of his departs Tnent. Its tactical theory is to funnel all federal data from all agencies into the division's new Intelligence unit. Then attack' the crime operation as the government once did the party in the hope the underworld will go the way of the underground. This takes times-especially when suddenly the Attorney General needs to peel off some men to hit a gambling operation such as the big bookies at a Sunday afternoon pmfessional foots ball game: As much as $50,000,000 has been wagered, Mr. Kennedy has said, on a pro game.

Now this has been cut to three or four million because of the special division's work under the new anti-crime laws Congress passed last year.1 The Attorney General wants a law which would give his department the power to grant immunity to persons involved in the operations the federals are probing. Then Bob Kennedy can get witnesses to talk. This would give him the chance to send his prosecutors into court with solid What be would do with such power would be to grant immunity to the least culpable in any operation. If there is a bribe, the bribe 'c giver would be most guilty, therefore the bribe. taker might talk if be got Immunity.

If there Is extortion under terror and the Hobbs Act is applicable, the officials of the union, whether it' a dummy outfit involved or some of the regular unions still under mob control, would be most guilty, Thus, the man who has been terrdrized into becoming part of the operation Could be given He would talk and incriminate the mobstet if he 'would not incriminate himself in the process. In effect, this Could rip holes in the Fifth Amendment Umbrella used by the mob SS a cover. Just why Congress did not give Bob Kennedy 1 this legal weapon is one of those strange stories of strange pressure on the Hill. Last spring the Senate did pass a bill granting the partment the power to grant a witness immtmity. E.

Bob Kennedy appeared on Ids way to getting the big St ck to crack the industrial rackets, Labor Secretary Arthur Goldberg supported the move. Then the Senate bill went on over to the Houses There it was given to a subcommittee of Congressmin Emanuel Caller's Committee-on the Judiciary. Witnesses, of courst, were called. And of all the witnesses to attack the Invo inunity provisions, the most --surprising was Albert WU, attorne3Nor the AFL-CIO. He assailed it as "anti-labor" despite Goldberg's endorsement of the inuntmity move.

The subcommittee listened, heeded and did not even bother to pass the House Boor though It was no more anti-labor than a Franklin Roosevelt speech. But It got beaten. Now Robert Kennedy Is fighting for it again. And why should the House committee not give him the new law and make It sada to Eight buck against the rackets? toR I AC A 1:: -71 11101, r-- 'tot ,.1 tr'F. 1 ,1 4 4 owl' Blow.

Other State Department spokesmen have done no better in trying to explain to reporters lvhy the-American determination to put down sell-determination has not gone over big with Britain, France, Belgium and the Netherlands. Nor has it gone over at all with conservatives here at home who grew up believing that armed intervention is justifiable only when our own national interest is involved. The administration did not mach want to win against a Communist regime in Cuba, but now is hell-bent to crush an anti-Cgmraunist regime in Katanga. The official State Depart- went attitude toward dissenters was given to me In response to a query. It seems that di- seaters are victims of a "well-financed propaganda machine" which feeds out misinforma- tion ba favor of Katanga and in disfavor of the Congo government.

Meanwhile a call, or it may be a challenge. has been issued by a columnist who often speaks for the State Department, but who is today opposed to the intervention policy. The call is for any man with a plan that will solve 4 The Congo crisis to bring it forward in the public interest No such will be forthcoming, chiefly because planned societies are 4 dic tatorial societies, and no dictator of Tlie Congo is in sight since Dag Himmarskjold's death. Dag had thei-maidngs of a unilfer-by-force, In the tradition of Bismarck, Cavour and the early empire-builders for Britain. With UN legions at his beck, Hammarskjoid might have forced a political solution upon The Congo, even though The Congo State would not for many centuries have the dignity and authority of nationalism by self-rule.

But with the particular genius of the Swedish statesman lost to us'it would seem wise of the tate Department to recognize that the shape of a world-wide pattern is forming in The Congo. If nature takes its course, if history has its way. there will be at least two separate countries in The Congo. Why this should surprise anybody, I do not know. The assertion of liberty In our day, and far back hi history, has taken the form of parades which is mtdrttidned by force wherever it cannot he maintained by agreement.

It is there to see. all over the map. There is no lawyer or statesman in Washington who can make a stronger case for unifying The Congo than the principle makes for allowing The Congo to fall into its normal lines of partition.
