McNamara Says Viet Nam Situation Not All Black

VOL. LXXVIII..NO. 179

SAIGON (AP) U.S. De- fence Secretary Robert S. Me- Namara said Tuesday the Viet Nam situation still is serious, “but not all black. This was his summary of a survey aimed at) helping the Johnson administra- tion determine the extent of the

few U.S. military buildup. |

“Over-all, the situation con-

tinues to “be ~ serious," MeNa-"

mara told a press conference. “As a matter of fact, in many aspects there has been deteri- oration since I was here last, 15 months ago . . . but the pic- ture is not all black by’ any means.” :

McNamara skirted the issue | of how many U.S. troops may | be added to the 75,000 or so al-

‘ready on duty in South Viet | /Nam.

Points made by McNamara; _—"'The size of the Viet Cong. forces has increased; their | rate of operations and the in- | tensify of their attacks

disruption’ of the lines communications, both rail < sea and road, is much more extensive; they have intenst- “fied their. campaign of terror against the civilian popyla- tion.”

WASHINGTON (AP)-— Prest- dent Johnson“ named U.S. Su-. preme Court Joastice Arthur J. Goldberg Tuesday as United States ambassador to the United | Nations. succeeding the late Adlai E. Stevenson.

Goldberg, whose appointment was announced at a_hastily- called White House ceremony,- pledged to work for peace un- der international law through the world organization.

“It is that or doom—and well all know it,’ Goldberg said.

Johnson's choice sent a ripple _of. surprise. throughout _ official _

cles in Washington and UN headquarters in New York. Most — initial reaction was favorable.

Goldberg is only the third mar in U.S. history to give up a lifetime Supreme Court ap- pointment__for another post.

“I shall not, Mr. President, conceal the pain with which I leave the court after three years of service,"’ Goldberg told John-

But he indicated he regards the UN job as more challeng-

“Tt now comes that the pres- |

ident has asked me to join in tthe greatest adventure of man’s history—the effort to bring the rule of law fo govern the rela- tions between sovereign states,” Goldberg said. “I have ac- cepted, as one —simply must.”

Goldberg takes a $9,500 yearly | salary cut in, the $30,000 post. |

Johnson had been expected to act quickly to replace Steven- son, who collapsed and died in London of a heart attack last Wednesday.

By DAL WARRINGTON OTTAWA (CP)—Premiérs of Newfoundland and New Bruns- wick said Tuesday their prov- inces will enter a country-wide

possible.

The premiers of Nova Scotia jand Prince Edward Island said ' they would have to consider the

matter further__before. reaching —

a decision. .

The Atlantic government leaders split on Ottawa's pro- posal for financing the scheme Liberals Joseph Smallwood ot

Louis Rot’- ichaud of New Brunswick- said they are “very happy’ with | Prime Minister’ Pearson's offer » of $14 per capita in federal aid.

Conservatives Robert Stanfield ‘of Nova Scotia and Walter |Shaw of Prince Edward Island ‘lealled it “very. unsatisfactory.” | Mr. Pearson told the federal- | provincial conference that $14 a is Ottawa's estimate of | ‘half the national cost of a med- lieal care program in 1967, ' the |target date for ‘starting. He) said the federal ‘contribution would be the same per-capita amount for all provinces:

the health services which they #

regarded as needed.

EXPERTS TO MEET

* Later, Mr. Pearson told Te- | porters the federal formula has ‘an equalization factor in‘ it. He > said federal statistics experts | will meet with their provincial | counterparts today to compare /ealculations. He hoped the Ot- tawa officials woild be able to— clear up provincial doubts on this point.

Dr. Hubert MacNeill, minister of welfare. and labor, pojnted out that P.E.T. has the highest

| percentage of children under 16

and adults over 65 of. any prov- ince.

“This is the group that re- quires the mpst medical care and “the per-capita -assistance~is-not- the best arrangement as far as we are concerned.” Dr. Mac- Neill said. ..He pointed gut that ‘here is. a wide variation of cost estimates, with Newfoundland Premier Smallwood estimating a cost of $6 per capita in his province and Premier Stanfield of Scotia estimating his cost at $35. Prince Edward Island be- lieves its cost may be about $30 per capita which would mean the province would have to raise $16 per capita to go with the

“From our point of view it’ very unsatisfactory. Our estl- mates of cost are very’ much higher, partly because we have ‘a high proportion of old people in our population. The federa} scheme takes ng account of need or ability to pay.” °

_Premier__Shaw said... Prince. Edward Island has .a_ similar problem: ‘‘Fourteén. dollars is not enough for us. If we had to do it on that we'd be out. I don’t think we can afford the ‘extra taxation on top of our: al- ready heavy. burdens.”

He indicated his province has lmore important problems to be ‘dealt with first.

TO CONSIDER PROPOSALS However,— Mr.- Stanfield and Mr. Shaw did not say flatly they would stay out of the med- lical care plan. ltake the proposals—inadequate

as they are—home and con- sider them,’’~ the Nova Scotia ppeeniae said.

“TI don’t know whether wef be in or not,” said Mr. Shaw. “We'll have to consider it and determine whether there’ are “any ameliorating cireum-~

| stances.”

Mr. Rabichand, on the -other, hand, said the federal offer “looks good” for New Bruns wick, We'd go into it tomorrow if it were possible.’’ He said the 4. fedéral contribution wilt ore than cover. half New | Brunswick's ‘costs, which have abeen estimated by provincial “officials at $22 a person the first: year. es

He was also happy with “fed- | eral proposals to increase the Otiawa contribution: as medical costs rise. He said federal offi- cials estimate the annual in- crease may be six or seven per cent,

Premier Smallwood said the $14 figure is ‘more than ade- quate for Newfoundland" even though Ottawa had made ne provision for -an equalization. formula that “would — provide _

provinces. “We're very happy. It's a magnificent plan.”

Plan May Force Tax Rise Here

, The only province with any ex perience in such a plan, Saskat- chewan, said its costs last year were just under $25 per capita. but Saskatchewan _has_a_genér- ally younger health care popi- lation than P.E.1. The cost for older people is found to run five to six” times” the” national aver-

and with P.E.I. having a hifgher: percentage of older peo- ple, the. $350 estimate is believed to be not far out of line.

But there seems little chance

of the federal government chang- ing the terms ‘And conditions of

its aid as the federal plan, in- cluding the proposed starting date of July 1, 1967, coincides

“T expect P.E.I. will go along with the medicare. proposal but
