Strength To SAIGON (UPI) President Ngo Dmh Diem said today his Un supported army now has the strength to take the ofensive against the Communist Vict Cong guerrillas on all fronts. Diem's speech to the newly elected national assembly was made as a U.S. congressional in vestigation team began probing the political situation and war ef fort of this Southeast Asian na tion. The mission's leader, Rep. Clement Zablocki, D-Wis., said the results of the investigation might affect aid appropriations to this and other nations.

The total space allowance was $251 million less than was author ized by Congress in separate legis lation earlier this year and $012 million less than President Ken nedy originally wanted. The appropriations committee also dropped its annual blockbust er on Kennedy's continuing drive to build fallout shelters not only in federal structures but also in schools, hospitals and other non profit institutions over the nation. It voted funds to continue loca tion and marking of potential shelter spaces in existing build ings, public and private, but ban ned further funds for slocking these spaces and denied every cent sought for new shelter con struction.

"Today we have gone one step further. "We are capable of taking the offensive on all fronts. It has be come obvious to all observers that the war has taken an im portant turn toward a certain and meaningful victory. Diem said victory in Vict Nam will be "concrete proof that the Communists arc not invincible, even in the domain of guerrilla warfare where they are reputed to be masters." Zablocki arrived Sunday with seven other members of the Far East subcommittee of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. Zab locki is chairman of the subcom- pnsscngcr plane was approved in tact. Funds also were granted for construction oi new icucrui puna- ings in 27 cities, but costs were shoved 10 per , cent. In its majority report to the Douse, the committee made no mention of President Kennedy's recent suggestion that this coun try and Russia work jointly on the moon venture which previous ly had been pictured as a high priority race. But Rep. Louis C. Wyman, R- N.H., a minority . member of the subcommittee that drafted the bill, termed the race concept daytime moon-madness." He said the President's proposal to cut Russia in on the program infects the entire Apollo pro gram with fiscal uncertainty." .
