Congressional Control Of Intelligence Shelved Washington - HOT -The House rules committee, acting to head off a possible public squabble over whether there was fumblnig by the Central Intelligence Agency in the spy plane incident, today shelved legislation to put the agency under constant con gressional scrutiny. Chairman Howard W. Smith (D-Va.) said the com mittee felt "this was not the time" to conduct public hear ings on whether or not to create a new watchdog com mittee to oversee intelligence No vote was taken at the closed committee session, but committee sources said the decision appeared to be unani mous. "However, there was a sur prising amount of feeling that this ought to be done at a later time," one committee source said. The "later time," it was clear, will not be before next year. The feeling of House and Senate leaders has been that the case of the spy plane downed in Russia ought not to be further brought Into pub lic controversy. MedfordTribune Regional Edition Page 2A Kennedy Confident Party Nomination Now Within Grasp Washington - iLPt - Sen. John F. Kennedy (Musi.) was confident today that he would win the Democratic president ial nomination and political leaders in both parties agreed that his bandwagon was roll ing in high gear. But strategists in the camps of rival Democratic a.spirants contended Kennedy could be stopped despite his smashing victory In the West Virginia primary which blunted the religious issue and knocked Sen.

Kennedy Sure He'll Win Kennedy, a Catholic, said his victory in overwhelming ly Protestant West Virginia convinced him he would win the nomination and "dimin ished substantially, if not eliminated" the religious issue from the race. He also belittled charges that his West Virginia show ing was the result of lavish campaign spending on his be half by his wealthy family and supporters. Kennedy's W est Virj.r.ia triumph caused Republican and one Democ.atic rival. Sen. Wayne Morse (Ore to step up their fire at the Mas sachusetts lawmaker. Victory Big Boost Many Democratic leaders .saw Kennedy's West Virginia victory as a big boost to his candidacy. In a joint statement, New York state Democratic Chair man Michael H. Pendergast and Carmine G. Dc Sapio, the state's national commit tee man, said Kennedy had "prov ed himself to be a very strong and very able contender." Michigan Gov. G. Menncn Williams said Kennedy's win made him "the front runner among those potential candi dates who can attract support of t he liberals in the Demo cratic party." Aides of Richard M. Nixon, only candidate for the GOP nomination, are reviewing the vice president's campaign plans to gear them to his con viction that Kennedy will be his probable opponent.
