The meet. ing was expected to set the stage for a Kremlin crack down against army leaders viewed as too independent. Army resentment toward the Communist functionaries who attempt to guide training and organizational policies is not new in Russia. However, it had thought to be on the wane under the more liberal policies of Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev. Conflict Under Stalin The conflict was greatest under the late Joseph Stalin, especially during the war years when commissars exert ed supreme control over army units and frequently counter manded orders of the field commanders. At issue is a paradox which confronts all totalitarian re gimes who use a strong mili tary to enforce their tenure in government. They take a chance their commanders will someday feel that politicians are Just an added encumber ment. IVORY PRICES UP New York (UPI) - Inflation has hit elephant tusks from Africa.

Dr. A. Dale Console of Princeton, N.J., who resigned as head of the medical depart ment of Squibb Laboratories to return to private practice, said the motto of the drug in dustry Is: "If you can't con vince them, confuse them." Appears as Noble Purpose He told the Senate Anti- Trust and Monopoly subcoin mittee, which is looking into allegedly excessive profits by medicine manufacturers, that the drug industry "is unique in that it can make exploita Hon appear a noble burpose.' Too often, he said, drug firms, send dozens of promo tion men to sell new products to doctors while experts in the home office try "to deter mine the best way to make nothing appear like a pot of gold. "Since so much depends on novelty, drugs change like women's hemlines," Console declared. Other congressional news: Aged: Sen. Jacob K. Javits (R-N.Y.) called on the admin istration to support the volun tary federal-state-private med ical insurance programs for old folks proposed by eight OOP senators.

Gross (R-Iowa) will try to force the House to take a roll call vote on a State Depart ment request for money to buy liquor, food and other items for U.S. embassies over seas "If the members want to vote for $835,000 worth of en tertainment and liquor, that's all right," Gross said. "But I want them on the record." He failed in a non-record vote Tuesday to cut the sum to $400,000.

Foes and supporters agreed the leg islation probably would pass the House if it ever reached a vote.
