Kennedy can convince Congress that Amer ican ambassadors need more ex pense money, he'll have to fill some top diplomatic posts from the ranks of the wealthy. Kennedy started a move In the direction of more expense money last week when he had an arnica ble discussion of the problem at Plm Beach with Rep. John Rooney, D-NY. Rooney has re fcrred to ambassadorial entertain ment funds as "booze allow ances. As chairman of a House Appropriations subcommittee Roo ney has fought for years against increasing them. Rooney reported that the president-elect's father, Joseph Ken nedy, felt obliged to spend about $100,000 a year of his own money while he was ambassador to Great Britain. Such sums are not usually found in the bank ac counts of career diplomats of the type Kennedy reportedly want to send to some of the most im portantand expensive foreign capitals. Nobody denies that the country has had a number of outstanding amateur ambassadors. Among the 20 non-career appointees serving abroad today are some excellent I men, State Department profes sionals agree. But the present system make it virtually impossible for a ca reer man to accept an assignment to London, Part, or a similar major post. Moreover the presi dent could not send a non-career but brilliant man, such as a uni versity professor who is an expert on international problems, to sucb a post unless he was also rich. Officials feel this is a danserous limitation. The pay of an ambassador varies from $20,000 to $27,500 a year, which means that an am bassador in the highest category gets more than the secretary of state, whose pay is only $25,000 a year. How many are in this highest category is an official secret be cause it varies from time to time. It is no secret, however, that the ambassadors to the United Na tions, London, Paris, Rome, Bonn, Tokyo, New Delhi, Karachi, Mos cow, Buenos Aires, Rio de Janei ro, and some other places receive the highest possible amount. Besides his pay. the ambassa. dor gets two allowances. Hie first is the entertainment allowance. The other is the house allowance for the upkeep of his residence. The State Department prefer not to talk about the entertain ment allowance. Some suggest the reason for secrecy is that the de partment is ashamed of how little it is. It is generally known that am. bassadors at major posts get $6, 000 a year for entertainini? anil a house allowance ranging from iu,wu io 115,000 a year. The yearly $6,000. mit at Hwl disposal at the beginning of the new fiscal year on July 1, usually ' lasts for four days. After the tra ditional July 4th parties at the embassies, nothing is left for the rest of the year. Therefore, it has been neces sary to appoint rich men to cer tain posts. If the department was-l lucky it got a rich man like Doug las Dillon, now undersecretary of state and Kennedy's Treasury secretary-designate. Dillon start ed his public career as ambassa dor to France. How much these rich ' men spend from their own money is their business and anybody"! guess; the State Department hai no way of knowing. James Reston, Washington bu reau chief of the New York Times, wrote recently that James D. Zellerbach, President Eisenhow er's envoy to Rome, spent $55,000 a year above his salary, and al lowances, and John Hay Whitney, the ambassador to London, over $100,000. The embassies themselves get a certain amount for entertain ment, to be divided among dip lomats who have to wine and dine in the capitals in which they are stationed. The embassy in Tstn. don, for Instance, is understood to get $2S.000 a year for such purposes, of which $6,000 goes to me amoassauor himself. The remaining $23,000 is rfivirf. ed among diplomats based in Lon don, Belfast, Birmineham. Cardiff Edinburgh, Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester and SouthamDton. which leaves hardly enouph for modest dinner a year for a press attache. While British diplomats may get less in pay than their American colleagues, their entertainment al lowances are known to be far higher. Tlie British ambassador to Washington is rumored to get 10 times as much as his opposite number in London. In some posts the U. S. mill f tary comes to the aid of the diplo mats. In Berlin, for instance, the military picks up the tab for the state Department, which has a sizable group of diplomat there. I
