! Butler Believed Riding Out Criticism of Party Courses v asmngton -(LTD-Paul M. Butler, who has weathered many storms in five years as chairman of the Democratic National Committee, appears to be riding out another one. He is still under fire, how ever, from Democrats in Con gress because of his criticism two weeks ago of the "con servative and moderate" course of the party's congres sional leaders. And he again is under attack from south ern Democrats who long have resented his. aggressive state ments on civil rights. Seeks Belligerent Stand "With an assist from the Democratic Advisory Council, which he created, Butler has been prodding . Democrats in the House and Senate for sev eral weeks to take a more belligerent stance toward the administration and to let ve toes fall where they may.. The more critical tone in his July 5 statements caused a flareback from Congress and other elements of the party, including some Nation al Committee members who called for his resignation Scott W. Lucas, .former Democratic leader of the Sen ate, issued. a statement Sun day night saying that Butler's action "is cause for alarm and imperils our chances for vic tory." Mail Favors Stand Butler reported, however, that the public response as Nixon Pledges To Keep Khrushchev's Confidence in Talks Washington-(DPB-Vice Presi dent Richard M. Nixon has sent word to Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev that he will keep in the strictest con fidence any discussions they may have in Moscow. Nixon, who leaves Wednes day for a tour of the Soviet Union, was said to hope that his assurance of secrecy would encourage Khrushchev to transmit to him any con fidential message he might have for President Eisen hower. To Feel Free It was emphasized that the vice president does not know whether Khrushchev will have such a message. But if he should Nixon wants him to feel free to state it and to dis cuss cold war problems generally. -mere jias been no an nouncement that Khrushchev will confer with Nixon. But such a meeting is regarded as virtually certain, especi ally since Eisenhower receiv ed First Deputy Soviet Pre mier Frol R. Kozlov during his recent visit here. Nixon asked Kozlov to re lay to Khrushchev assurances that he intended to respect the privacy of any conversa tions he might have with the Soviet leader. Associates of the vice president said this reflected the serious view Nixon takes of his expected talks with Khrushchev. They said he feels he could best serve the" U. S. government by creating an atmosphere in which Khrushchev would talk freely. Expects To Visit Key Areas Nixon said Saturday that he expected to visit six cities in Russia, including four key industrial areas in Siberia. A tentative itinerary calls for him to visit Leningrad and the Siberian cities of Novosibirsk, Sverdlovsk, Nizhni Tagil and Beloyarsk, as well; the Mos cow. Nixon will spend four days in Moscow where he will open the American National Exhi bition on Friday. ield Due Back From San Francisco Salem - (UPD - Gov.

De Sapio, New York national committeeman not viewed as a Butler ally, made clear last week that he was backing the chairman. Butler got some qualified support from Sen. Joseph S. Clark (D-Pa.).
