Newspaper Page TextCongress: The Spring Junketing Season By FRANK ELEAZER United Press Correspondent Washington IP! The light er side of Congress: This is the happy time. This is the week for which our lawmakers cast a unanimous vote. This is the annual Easter recess, or spring junketing season. Today, in short, you could muster a quorum in the Caribbean quicker than on the floor of the House. All this, no doubt, is as it should be. Anyway, it is as it has been since the memory of Congress would rather not run to the contrary.. There are differences, though. This 'year the mem bers haven't simply waited for Easter. For the past three months they have been searching the sky in jets, plumbing the depths in subs, and watching with envious eyes the flight of outgoing missiles bound for the kind of junkets which, even for congressmen, exist only in dreams. Take Rep. James B- Utt (R Calif.) He is among dozens of members who have been fer ried down to Cape Canaveral, Fla., to see missile prepara tions and, 'if they are lucky, a launching. Utt and his group recently sweated out a Vanguard count-down to within 35 sec onds of zero. Then the fog rolled in and the shpt was called off. But Utt didn't leave without learning some thing. He found there are 37, 000 separate parts to the Van guard, and said it's no won der sometimes it won't work. "As complicated as this mis sile is," he reported, "it was rather refreshing, as we ap proached the missile pad, to hear a workman call from the fifth deck, 'Joe, send up a screw driver!'

Knowland's bulk was strap ped in. This he expected. Oxy gen mask was affixed. This was all right too. Takeoff came with a rush. And in no time at all, Knowland recalls, he and the pilot had shatter ed the sound barrier. That, too, he was prepared for. At this point, however, the pilot leveled off and start ed really to fly Knowland won't say the trouble was caused approach ing the speed of - light, or even by breaking the heat barrier. But for whatever rea son, the intercomsystem or so the pilot claimed after wards wasn't up to the strain. When it recovered a few moments later, with a roar and a bang, the pilot's voice came through loud and clear; "Okay, Senator?" "Yes, fine," Knowland man aged With that the pilot went into a barrel roll. Knowland went into a sinking spell Plane, pilot, and Knowland turned over once. Knowland's stomach turned over twice More, more of the horrible same, for five minutes was sometning wrong, Senator?" the pilot asked so licitiously, back on the ground.. "When I suggested trying some fancy stuff, you did say go ahead, didn't you sir?" Judge Threatens To Me KVaisfriaD For James CMtfa New York (IP) A federal judge today warned he would declare a mistrial for James R. Hoffa, accused of wiretap conspiracy, unless the Mc- Vice President Richard M. Nixon is all set for a South American trip, and it looks like he may have to go fur ther than he planned. A bunch of Chilean con gressmen were visiting the Senate last week and their presence was properly noted. Sen. Mike Mansfield (D Mont.) was laying the wel come on in fine senatorial fashion. "Our vice president soon will be visiting South Amer ica," he said, "and I am espe cially pleased, to say one . of the highlights of his journey will be a stop in beautiful Chile." The Chileans beamed. Nixon gulped. Chile is one of two coun tries in South America he wasn't planning to visit. Rep. Charles O. Porter (D Ore.) apparently is counting on the travel season's working both ways. "I hope every resident of the Fourth Oregon District makes it a point to come see us when visiting the Capital," he told his constituents, hos- Citations Due for ROK Airmen in Hijacking Try Seoul HP) Lt. Gen. Chiang Duk Chang said today that three Republic of Korea air men will be cited for "heroic action" in thwarting the hi jacking of their plane to Com munist North Korea. The ROK air force chief of staff issued a description of the incident shortly after re porting to President Syngman Rhee today. He said Choi Jung II, 30, an air force captain with 10 years service, staged the hi-jack at tempt Thursday. Kills Radioman Choi entered the cockpit of the C46 transport plane and immediately killed the radio operator with two 45-caliber pistol bullets in the face, Chang said. He then took the radioman's weapon and order ed the pilot to fly north to Communist territory. A few minutes later the pilot, Capt. Kim Pak Kim, grabbed Choi's hands and started butting him in the face. Other crew members joined the fight, during which the pilot and the mechanic were injured. 11 Persons Aboard Chang said there were 11 persons aboard the plane, in cluding six passengers, Choi and the crew. Choi still was unconscious more than 24 hours after the beating. The co-pilot, only uninjured crew member, landed the plane at Pyongtaek, 40 miles south of Seoul. A preliminary investigation showed no apparent contact with Communist circles. Choi was born in North Korea. ' I Clellan . Rackets Committee discontinued its Teamster Union hearings until after the trial. Trial Due Monday Hoffa, Teamster Union boss, and two others are scheduled for trial Monday before Fed eral Judge John M. Cashin. A Senate committee on improp er activities in the labor and management fields has sched uled a hearing in Philadelphia next week involving the Teamsters' Union. Cashin said that he wanted to see Hoffa get a fair trial. "I can't be any more ex plicit and I can't be any fair er," Cashin said. "Hoffa and the Teamster union are bound together just like links in a chain and I don't think there should be any hearings in volving them until this trial is over." The judge added: "I can't control the committee but I can control my own court. Be cause I understand the two are bound together I won't hesitate five minutes to de clare a mistrial." Follows Motion ' The declaration by Cashin followed a motion by defense counsel to dismiss because of the release of a recent interim report by the subcommittee that put Hoffa and Teamsters Union in a highly unfavorable light. A second motion for dis missal was based on a speech made by Committee Counsel Robert Kennedy in Detroit, in which he referred adversely to Hoffa.
