Kennedy hob-nobbed with the biggest stars of the entertainment and political worlds Tuesday night at two glittering pre-inaugu- ral parties in his honor. One was given by his broth. cr-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Smith, at their Georgetown home. The other was staged in a downtown ho. tel by Bart Lytton, a big moil' ey raiser for the Democrats. Kennedy spent only about five hours in the capital be tween the time he landed here from Palm Beach, Fla., and took off again for New York City. The Presideni-elect was greeted by large crowds at the parties - both inside and outside.

However, spectators across the street reserved their big gest applause for more famil iar faces - Frank Sinatra, Jimmy Durante, Tony Curtis, Janet Leigh and other Holly wood personalities. Kennedy stayed at the Smiths' parly for , about 90 minutes. Ho then motored about a mile to the Lytton . party. Lytton, finance chairman for the California Democratic Central committee and a mem ber of the party's national finance committee, helped es cort Kennedy through the crowd. Toastmaster . entertainer George Jesscl offered a toast to the President-elect after vainly trying to quiet the crowd. "This is the happiest night America has known in a long time," Jessel declared. "And so we drink to Ken nedy and his first lady, for ever since the days of the swirling capes and low bows, and the swish of the satin crinolines that adorned Doily Madison, never has the White House had such a lovely mis tress as Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy." Kennedy thanked Jessel and wished health and prosperity to the guesls, who included California Gov. Edmund G. Brown and Gene Barry, TV's "Bat Masterson." The president-elect mingled with the guests for about 10 minutes, then left for the air port for the flight to New York.

"I knew there was no hope at all for him.- "Ail the boy could do was ask for water," Rowe said. He was pinned againt the door somehow and he was soaking wet. The window was broken and it really rained hard over the week end. 'I told the boy I would get somebody that could help," Rowe said, then I went back up on the road and got anoth er highway worker to go down to the- wreck while I went into Taholah for help."

Khrushchev has pledged continued Soviet help to "inevitable" national armed revolutions through out the world. He also has renewed his threat to force Western with drawal from Berlin, and has claimed the Soviet Union alone stopped England and France during their invasion with Israel of Egypt in 1956. Khrushchev stated his views in a 20,000-word speech Jan. 6 to members of the Academy of Social Sciences and the Communist Party Central Committee in Moscow. The text was made public Tuesday in the magazine Kommunist. Emphasizing that the Com munists support national lib eration wars "fully and with out reservation," Khrushchev said "such wars are not only permissible but inevitable." Will Support Rebellions He said revolutionary wars should not be confused with local wars, such as the 1956 Suez crisis or wars between states. Khrushchev has stated previously that the historical Marxist doctrine of the inevit ability of wars between Com munism and capitalism no longer is valid because of present-day conditions in the world. The Soviet leader stressed in his Jan. 6 speech, however, that Russia will support na tional rebellions such as those carried out by the Algerian and Vietnamese rebels. Turning to the Western powers, Khrushchev said that time had shown the positions of the United States, Britain and France to be "especially vulnerable in West Berlin." "These powers cannot fail to realize that the occupation regime in that city will end sooner or later," he said. Repeating past Soviet threats to sign a separate peace treaty wlin tasi Ger many, Khrushchev said "it is necessary to continue step by step to bring the aggressive- minded imperialists to tneir senses, to compel them to reckon with the real situation." "And if they balk, we shall take resolute measures, we shall sign a peace treaty with the Germany Democratic Re public (East Germany), for we are fully determined to con clude a German peace treaty, at long last to pull out the and then Premier Nikolai Bui thorn that the occupation re. gime of West Berlin is from the heart of Europe," he said. Recalling the French -British-Israeli invasion of Egypt which caused the Suez crisis, Khrushchev said that when he Eanin visited England wai year, British statesman spoke "quite frankly" ' about their desire to settle accounts with Egypt which had nationalized the Suez Canal. - , "We taught them plainly: 'If you start a war, you'll lose it, we will not be neutral'," Khrushchev said he told the British. During the Suez crisis, Rus sia threatened to send "volun teers" to help the Egyptian forces.
