Caution Noted As Reds Throw Down Gauntlet Senate Armed Services Commit tee voted today to "study and appraise" Defense Department policies on the airing of anti- Communist views and statements by U. S. military leaders. The committee approved, with some 'changes, a revised resolu tion offered by Sen. Strom Thur mond, D-S.C, which described the study as an appraisal rather than an investigation. ' Thurmond said he was satisfied with the committee action. He said sponsors of the change con strue the word "study" to have the same effect as ordering an investigation. Meanwhile, the Army said that Maj. Cen. Edwin A. Walker, who was removed from command of the U. S. 24th Division in Ger many because of alleged political activity, is due to arrive in Wash ington Thursday. An Army spokesman said only that Walker is returning to this country "on leave." Reports from Germany said he would fly home at his own expense and was ex pected to confer with Thurmond. Walker was removed from com mand of the 24th Division and of ficially reprimanded following anj investigation of charges that he had attempted to indoctrinate troops of his division with ex treme right-wing political views. With Congress hoping to ad journ late this week or early next week, time was running out on discussion of the Thurmond pro posal. However, committee mem bers said no decision had been reached on how to proceed. Since the committee heard De fense Secretary Robert S. McN'a mara outline his public affairs policies. Thurmond has been sup plied with a sampling of speeches by military leaders showing dele tions required by Pentagon Screen ing. Thurmond said the speeches showed a "pattern" of censorship. Opponents of the Thurmond pro posal were not helped Tuesday when the Air Force admitted after first denying his charge that two officers were dis ciplined for showing the film "Op eration Abolition" in an indoctri nation program. WANTED To rent or lease 2 or 3 bedroom home Phone TU 4-5257 UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP) The Soviet Union has thrown down what appeared to be a quick challenge to the United Nations to change its basic structure. But on close inspection, the Kremlin's' move seems a cautious one. That is the watchword at .the United Nations as its assembly opens its 16th regular session in a strange brooding atmosphere pro-j duced by the death of Secretary- General Dag Hammarskiold. The delegations seem carefully measuring one another, almost like gamblers trying to gauge the odds on success or disaster. - Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko announced the Krem lin's insistence that there be a three-man secretariat to succeed Hammarskiold. With a built-in Drivers Escape Highway Crash Two cars collided Tuesday aft ernoon on Highway 66 just be yond the Lakcview Junction but the drivers escaped injury. Drivers were John T. 'Bolton, Osburn, Idaho, and. Juliette U. Robinetle, Route 2, Box 8I0F, Klamath Falls. State police said both cars were easlbound at the time of the accident. They said Bolton was attempting to make a left turn as the Roblnette car tried to pass..

Four Klamath Falls places of business were warned by city po lice Tuesday about accumulations of garbage In the alleys behind the establishments. The businessmen woro warned to clean up their messes of face citations for violations of the city's anit-lltter ordinance. "We mean to enforce the anil- litter ordinance," Police Chief Charles A. Howard said Tuesday. "These piles of garbage are haz ards to health and safety." The officers have orders to warn the businesses and then issue cita tions, The city council has also voiced concern about garbage in alleys Don't Miss Cftmlsnlns Voar fumllurn r mil oeltanaout for eur Snndijr Auc tion 1 P.M.

But Gromyko added that it was not possible to change the chartei to set up such a structure until Red China was admitted to mem- bership. That seems unlikely in this session, at any rate. And it gives the Soviet Union an out- should it feel it needs one. If pressing its demand should be come too dangerous, politically or otherwise, the Kremlin has a rcadymade avenue of retreat. Gromyko's statement, however, did little to relieve the tension in U.N. halls. It can burst suddenly into ominous crisis. The U.S. delegation gives the impression its cue for the time being is watchful waiting and lis- tcning. There is no inclination to telegraph any punch the United States may be intending to throw in the great diplomatic struggle now shaping up. There is lively speculation about what the United States might do in the light of the Kremlin's in tention to go ahead with its de mand for a three-headed secretar iat made up of a Communist, a Westerner and a neutral. Widely discussed is the possibil ity that the United States intends a counter-offensive involving a de mand that the nations of the world stand up and be counted for or A firm United States stand be hind the United Nations as the last hope of peace, so the specu lation goes, could generate pres sure from weaker countries on the Kremlin. Implicit in the approach would be a U.S. threat to pull out of the United Nations if the Krem lin should succeed in extracting the secretariat's teeth.
