S. Don't put yourself out on a limb by trying to retrieve a tangled kite. If your kite becomes and you tug it i free, abandon it rather than risk injury by climbing a pole or tree, or entering a hazardous area. "The basic rule, of course, is to use common sense."

But a separate move in the I House to demand a greater congressional role in determining war policy was reported gaining strength. Rep. Paul Findley, said one-fourth of the 435 House members have agreed to back a resolution alling for an immediate study of I S. policy in Asia, and addi Should onsult Congress "It is now clear lo me that there is a strong, substantial and bipartisan feeling in the House that no decision to commit large numbers of troops to Vietnam, nor any other fundamental decision on war policy, should be math' until and unless there is serious consultation with and action by the Congress."
