OBITUARIES ir New Raise In Tuilioii Is Allocked Em-wmimwmw'wit wiwsiiv Misuse. ''X Cordon H. Keats, ExIIockey Great VICTORIA, B.C. tf'H-Gordon Blanchard Keats, the "Iron Duke" of professional hockey and a member of hockey's Hall of Fame, died Sunday. He was 76, Keats, considered one of the game's greatest slickhandlers, had been in poor health for several years.

Born March 21, 1895 in Montreal, he began his hockey career at 14 in the Cobalt mining league in Northern Ontario. At 17 he turned professional with Toronto of the National Hockey Association and later played at Edmonton, Chicago, Detroit, Tulsa, Boston and Victoria. Jack Anderson W' The planners In the White House basement, who howled in pain over our disclosure of their India-Pakistan secrets, have slipped fragments from the sftme secret documents to their friends in the press. This illustrates how the White House uses official secrecy to control the flow of news to the public. Fuvorablo facts ore leaked out; unfavorable news is suppressed.

The official leakers ore now spreading the word that President Nixon's pro-Pakistan policy was not the disaster it appeared but really saved West Pakistan from dismemberment. As evidence, the boys in the basement Waked a few selective secrets to our column-writing colleague, Joseph Alsop, who has excellent contacts at the highest levels of government. Alsop stated "on positive authority" that the U.S. government had "conclusive proof" of India's Intention to crush the main body of the Pakistan army In West Pakistan. This positive proof, he wrote, was "the centerpiece of every one of the CIA's daily reports to the White House during the crisis period." We have read the CIA's daily reports to the White House during the India-Pakistan war.

They are stamped "Top Secret Umbra," a designation reserved for the darkest of the CIA's secrets. Alsop told us he never read the CIA reports himself. Ho had no way of knowing, therefore, that his sources gave him only part of the story. These CIA digests, true enough, raised the possibility of an Indian attempt to crush West Pakistan. But the same digests also suggested India would accept an early cease-fire.

Here is a typical excerpt: "There have been reports that (Indian Prime Minister) Gandhi would accept a cease-fire and international mediation as soon as East Bengal had been liberated On the other hand, New 'Leak Hints at Basis For Pro-Pakistan Policy we have had several recent reports that India now intends not only to liberate East Bengal but also to straighten its borders In Kashmir and to destroy West Pakistan's air and armored forces." The strongest CIA warning was sent to the White House Dec. 10. "According to a source who has access to information on activities in Prime Minister Gadhl's office," declared the report, "as soon as the situation in East Pakistan is settled, Indian forces will launch a major offensive against West Pakistan." But the CIA also took note of repeated Indian assurances to American Ambassador Kenneth Keating that India had no territorial ambitions and wished only to end the conflict with the least possible bloodshed. It Is clear from the secret documents in our possession that the CIA had no "conclusive proof" of an Indian plan to dismember West Pakistan. The CIA had received a number of reports that a major Indian offensive might be immine1 on the western front.

But these were discounted by both the State and Defense departments. Only Henry Kssinger. the President's foreign policy czar, seemed eager to believe the worst. Alsop's sources also told him that President Nixon intervened with the Kremlin, threatening "an ugly showdown," to stop Mrs. Gandhi's army from carving up West Pakistan.

In response, Alsop claims that the Kremlin hurriedly dispatched Deputy Foreign Minister Vasily Kuznestsov to New Delhi on Dec. 12 to tell Mrs. Gandhi not to attack West Pakistan. Joseph Alsop is an enterprising and conscientious columnist. He acknowledged to us that "it is possible to be lied to on the very highest level." But he assured us his source had "never lied before." The evidence in our possession, however, suggests that the White House is playing peekaboo with CIA secrets to distort the truth.

Jim Schroder, 11-Year Pro Foolhall Veteran NORRISTOWN, Pa. UP) -A coroner reported yesterday that Jim Scradcr, a veteran of 11 years In the National Football League, died Sunday morning of a massive coronary occlusion. The autopsy was performed by Montgomery County Coroner John R. Hoffa. Scradcr collapsed at a dinner dance Saturday night and was pronounced dead at a local hospital in this southeastern Pennsylvania community.

A native of Weston, W.Va., Scradcr played his college ball at Notre Dame, graduating in 1953. He then played eight years for the Washington Redskins and three with the Philadelphia Eagles, making the All-Pro team several times in the late 1950s. MRS. JOHN'rACKETT LIVINGSTON Mrs. Olive Osborne Rackett, 80, of 14 Ha-zelwood died Sunday at St.

Barnabas Hospital. She was born in North Arlington and lived in Belleville, Orange, and Point Pleasant before coming here three months ago. She was a member of the Methodist Church in Orange. Her husband, the late John W. Rackett, died in 1960.

Surviving are three daughters, Mrs. Heber Ford, Mont-clair, Mrs. Ida Lake, Point Pleasant, and Mrs. Mannie ASBURY PARK EVENINC PRESS Jon. 18, 1971 15 Hijacking Suspect Sliol, Held CAMDEN A former Point Pleasant Beach resident Is being held In the custody of U.S.

Marshals In lieu of $150,000 bail after a hearing vesterday before U.S. Magistrate Charles Rudd in connection with numerous hijackings In the state, the FBI reported last night. Norman Buerdsell, 30, was shot Friday night as he attempted to flee a residence on Kings Highway, Moorestown. Victor Turyn, in charge of the FBI in New Jersey, snid Buerdsell was arrested nnd taken to Cherry Hill Hospital where his condition is satisfactory. The FBI said Joanne Moy-er, 38, a resident at the Kings Highway address, Is in tb custody of marshals in lieu of $100,000 bail after being arrested and charged with violating the federal harboring statute.

Neither the FBI nor Moorestown police have released any details about the apprehension of Buerdsell, who reportedly lived on Homestead avenue in Point Pleasant Beach before leaving town about a year ago. The FBI said he had been under surveillance by law enforcement officers. They described Buerdsell as single and most recently employed as a heavy equipment Sensuous Economics Finds Misery Loves Companies very bad. Lately we've been spot-checking, and we've discovered that the hotel people are getting snippety again, the clerks in stores are starting not to give a damn, and in some good restaurants the headwaiters, for the first time in two years, are becoming their old obnoxious patronizing selves. This shows that things are picking up, and the country could be in for a good year." "It's fantastic how you people arrive at your conclusions," I said.

"It's foolproof," Dr. Strasser said. "Let's take the building industry as an example. When the country is doing badly, no one is digging up the streets or drilling steel pilings into the ground, or making cement at 6 o'clock in the morning. People can get around easier, sleep better and work in a quieter atmosphere.

"But as soon as the economy improves, the wreckers come out to smash down buildings, streets are barricaded by cranes, water and gas are turned off, and the noise drives everyone to the point of suicide. By lust checking the nervous breakdown figures in a city for the week we can gauge how well the building industry is doing." "So the more anxious the country becomes the better it is for all of us?" "Exactly. The best economic Indicators are the sales charts of the anti-acid stomach medicine companies. When sales of Alka Seltzer, Bwmo Seltzer, Pepto Bismol and Rolaids are down, this means people are content and the dollar is in trouble. But when anti-acid sales are up, this means people are sick and getting their faith back in the country.

You can't have economic growth without ulcer growth at the same time." "Then you're predicting a good economic year and a miserable existence for all of us?" I asked. "Life won't be as bad as it was in the late '60s when things were booming, but I predict it will be a good enough year that people will be able to feel how miserable a healthy economy can be." Art Buchwald You're going to hear a lot about "economic indicators" this year. An economic indicator Is a clue to what is really happening to the economy. From these hints economists can make fantastic predictions of which way the country will tilt in the next 12 months. A man who works with nothing but economic indicators is Dr.

FrieHrich Strasser, who is in charge of the "Input-Output Institute of Sensuous Economics." A visit to Dr. Strasser's institute produced some very interesting but frightening information. Dr. Strasser said that at the moment all his economic indicators were pointing up. "More people are starting to travel the airlines, which is a very good sign," he told me.

"At the moment though, it's still possible to book a flight without difficulty and have a comfortable ride without people sitting on your lap. But If things keep getting better, the airports won't be able to handle the traffic, the planes will be over-booked, luggage will be lost, and the airlines will have a very good economic year." "Wait a minute," I said. "Are you trying to say that if the economy gets better in this country, things will get worse?" "Of course I am. Everyone knows the price of a good economy is a breakdown in services that the economy provides. The more refrigerators people buy, the less chance they have of getting them repaired.

The more cars that are sold, the bigger pollution and traffic problems you have. The more the country consumes, the less opportunity there Is of getting rid of the garbage." Dr. Strasser said one of his best economic indicators is the behavior of shop clerks, hotel reservation people, and headwaiters. "The nicer they are," he said, "the more trouble the country is In. During the recent recession we found shop clerks, hotel people and headwaiters the most courteous they had been since the economic doldrums of the early '60s.

"This indicated to us that things were TRENTON Ml The presidents of 15 state and county colleges have criticized a proposed $250 tuition hike as "a regressive act," The educators yesterday termed the state's planned Increase "poor public policy," adding it would be "an inadequate substitute for the proper level of state expenditures." The joint statement urged Gov. Williom T. Cahill and the Legislature "to find alternativesfunds raised by taxes or other means rather than through Increasing the burden on tuition paying students and their parents." The State Board of Higher Education is expected to meet Friday to determine the tuition rate increases which will affect more than 100,000 students. Students at New Jersey's eight state colleges now pay $350 in tuition and an average of $72 in required fees every year. Tuition and lee3 at Rutgers University amount to $540 per year.

COVRT From Page 1 the over-all question of capital punishment before seeking legislation to reinstate the death penalty in the state. Bateman said he would like to see an interim measure to provide for the death penalty until a special commission on capital punishment apDointed by Cahill submits its final report. According to Chief Deputy Thomas Drlber at the State Prison here, the death row inmates heard the news of the Supreme Court opinion on radio sets yesterday morning but reacted calmly. "They took it right in Driber said. "There was no great uoroar.

I guess thv were exnecting it." Driber said he was pleased with the decision because it would "give us a lot more room. That's just what we need." Death Row inmates are confined to a special wing of the prison, one man to a cell. The last man executed in the electric chair in New Jersey was Ralph Hudson in 1963. In recent years, the room housing the chair has been used to store old mattresses. The last execution in the nation was In June 1967.

There are nearly 700 men under death sentences across the country. In its 6-1 decision yesterday, the state Supreme Court sharply criticized the U.S. Supreme Court for failing to soell out its reasoning in a New Jersey case involving non vult Dleas. The U.S. Supreme Court cast doubt over the New Jersey law last summer In an aopeal from Victor Funicello of Edison, who was convicted of murdering a used car dealer in 1965.

The court set aside the death penalty for Funicello and said the case is "remanded for further proceedings." In October the court refused to reconsider its decision in the Funicello case. The state court complained that the federal court remanded the case without giving reasons, although the U.S. Supreme Court had cited in the Funicello oninion another case in which it overturned a federal kldnapning statute on grounds that the law subjected the accused person to the death penalty If he plodded Innocent rather than guiltv. Chief Justice Josephl Wein-traub of the stale Suoremc Cout said, "I regret to say that the federal Sunreme Court's handling of this important subject is not mv idea of effective judicial administration. An appeal to tho hieh-est authority should be more rewarding than a trip to Delphi." Tho reference was to the ancient Greek oracle of Delphi, known for cryptic prophesies.

New Jersey amended Its homicide law in 18M to Incorporate non vult pleas. The change was taken for human purposes, to grant an accused murderer an escape from the electric chair. Under th law, It was up to tho trial Judge to decide if ho should accent tho plea of no defense or reoulre tho defendant to stand trial. In yostordny's decision, the lone dissent was by Justloo John J. Francis who said ho felt tho homeldo law was not unconstitutional "on Its face so far as the death penalty Is concerned." Besides FunlcoHo, tho court ordered a reduction to life in prison for n'no other men who appealed to tho court, Moreover, It sxid the same net ion would bo taken for the other 10 men on Donth How as soon as tho prisoners filed court papers asking that thoir penalties be sot aside.

Pentagon Pressures Allies For Permanent NATO Fleet Hence the paradox: Israel has made an open Phantom pipeline the essential first step for serious talks on an Israeli-Egyptian solution, but one effect of that open pipeline almost surely will be an increase of Soviet power inside Egypt. That explains tho Intensive, new American effort to build a NATO fleet on a permanent basis in the waters off the North African coast.

High Pentagon officials now feel that Israel is secondary In tho Soviet Union's plans for Its Egyptian bases. Moreover, with NATO pressing Moscow hard for a mutual troop pullout from Eastern and Western Europe, the Russians are perceived as eager to enlarge and make permanent their air and naval bases in Egypt. Their purpose: to outflank Southern Europe from the North African coast after the U.S. begins to withdraw from Europe. To counter this Soviet air and naval force, Secretary of Defense Mclvln Laird and U.S.

NATO officials put tho case hard at the Brussels meeting for a permanent NATO fleet similar to the NATO Atlantic fleet. The heart of that fleet would, of course, be elements of the U.S. 6th Fleet. Until the Arab-Israeli six-day war of 19G7, the 6th Fleet used the Mediterranean as its private lake. Now, however, tho ever-expanding Soviet fleet has becomo a major political and military force in the Mediterranean, with access to Egyptian bases for fuel and supplies.

American officials argued at Brussels for a total abandonment of the "boundaries' that now dictate tho assignment of naval power by members of NATO to specific waters. Instead of occasional Joint fleet maneuvers, tho proposed NATO Mediterranean fleet would onerato with the same freedom as the Soviet fleet, would exert a powerful political pressure, and would servo as a major deterrent to tho growing Soviet throat from bases In Kg.vpt. Tho protmect of an ecsnlnllng arms rneo In tho Middle East has now given this U.S. Initiative an urgent push forward. Inside Report By ROWLAND EVANS And ROBERT NOVAK WASHINGTON With arms shipments to the Middle East about to escalate, top Pentagon strategists are now increasing the pressure on U.S.

allies for a permanent NATQ fleet in the Mediterranean to counter not just Soviet naval power in the Mediterranean itself but growing Soviet air power In Egypt. The paradox of this American effort, which started last month at the North Atlantic Council meeting In Brussels, is that the Imminent resumption of U.S. Phantoms remised to Israeli Prime Minister Golda Icir during her December meeting here is almost certain to be used by Moscow as an excuse to send more aircraft to Egypt. The intensive U.S. effort to build a pcrma-rent NATO fleet In the Mediterranean Is a direct result of the Pentagon's fear that Soviet air bases In Egypt and tho TU-16 bombers sent to Egypt Inst November ore designed not for use against Israel but as a long-rango threat to the "southern flank" of NATO Although details of the new Phantom deal are cloaked in high secrecy, arrangements for the first shipment of Phantoms to Israel nro now in final preparation.

To Mrs. Meir, the new batch of Phantoms is seen as essential to give Israel A strong bargaining position in the indirect talks expected to start nex month aimed at a partial Israeli withdrawal from tho Sinai peninsula and the opening or the Suez Canal. Thus, tho Israeli primo minister gave President Nixon certain secret pledges that Israel would bnrgaln in good faith for an Interim settlement of the Sinai Suez Canal issue after the U.S. agreed to resume shipments of tho Phantoms. The key to Mr.

Nixon's Mideast policy has always been to end tho Arab-Israeli struggle as the first slop toward ending the alarming growth of Soviet Influenco In Egypt. In short, once Israel Is persuaded to withdraw from occupied Egyptian territory, so Mr, Nixon fools President Kmlnt will begin to reduce tho vast Soviet military prosenco in Egypt. tune, to Its substitute teacher rosier.
