Art Buchwald Senate If for some reason the WASHINGTON doesn't confirm Judge Carswell for Justice Abe Fortas' Supreme Court seat, the White House is already prepared to submit another name. Waiting in the wings, in case the Senate balks on Carswell, is Judge Caleb Robert E. Lee, of the Fifth Circuit Juvenile and bankLee ruptcy has Court of Juniper County, Ala. Judge clearance already had a thorough security who check by Atty. Gen.

John Mitchell, told intimates, "This is one man they'll never be able to smear." I went to visit Judge Lee in his chambers at the Juniper County Courthouse. "Your honor, are you aware that in line for the Supreme seat, you are Court if for some reason the Senate sees fit not to seat Judge Carswell?" heard something about it," Judge Lee "Ah me. "Course Ah'd consider it honor" even though Ah would hate to a leave great Juniper County." "Sir, I do not want to get personal but do you own any stocks or bonds, or have interests in companies that could be considered a conflict of interest?" "No sirree!" said Judge Lee. "Ah have investments of any kind. The only thing Ah own of any property value are slaves." "Slaves?" "Ah just own a dozen, and half of them are.

"But in my wife's name." Judge Lee, don't consider owning "If slaves anyone a conflict makes of interest?" about it, Ah'm willing to sell the slaves or at least put them in trust for mah grandchildren," "Sir, owning slaves is against the Consti- Jack Anderson WASHINGTON Operating behind the gleaming glass walls of his lavish Washington headquarters, President Felipe Herrera of the Inter-American Development Bank has become one of the most powerful men in the Western Hemisphere. As the ruler of an institution that loans at least $600 million a year to Latin American countries to aid" their development, he has enormous influence with the business and political leaders of the borrower nations. But behind the prestigious facade of this international banking institution, this column has uncovered a tangle of haphazard lending practices, outright waste and attempts by the suave Herrera to use the bank to polish his personal image. Most of the misused money, of course, was bestowed upon the bank by the American taxpayers. During Herrera's 10-year reign as the bank's first president, its funds, have been put to uses never intended by the governments, which put up the money to stimulate economic development in Latin America.

For example, Herrera used bank money to mortgage his swanky home in an exclusive Washington neighborhood. Although he holds no graduate degrees in economics and his theories are taken seriously few places outside the bank, Herrera travels far and wide to pontificate about them. In one case, the bank shelled out $7,000 to finance a frivolous three-day seminar in Mexico City where Herrera held forth at length about what might happen in Latin America in the next 33 years. Because Herrera is absolute boss at the bank, little is accomplished during his frequent absences. This contributes to' a frantic year-end rush to approve tens of millions in loans.

In one year when Herrera's junkets were particularly numerous, approximately $140 million in loans were rammed through the board of directors in the final 10 days of December. Herrera finds other ways to fritter away Next High Court Nominee Only Owns a Dozen Slaves tution. How can you serve on the Supreme Court and be for "As far as the Constitution is concerned Ah'm a strict constructionist, except where it comes to slavery. Ah don't think a man has to be for everything in the Constitution just to sit on the Supreme Court." "But didn't the Justice Department ask you about your slaves when they interviewed you for the Supreme Court?" "The question never came up, and Ah didn't think it was worth bringing up. Ah never hid the fact Ah owned slaves.

You can look at mah record. Ah always eliminated myself from any case which involved slaves in 1 Juniper County." "Judge Lee, aren't you afraid slaves will make it difficult for the Senate to approve of your nomination?" "Ah don't know. In left -wing liberal circles there might be some hollering, but Ah know the attorney general will stand behind me. After all, if they want a Southern judge on the Supreme Court, they have to take him as he is. "Ah don't know how owning a few darkies could affect the way Ah decide the constitutional issues.

Besides, you have to have some balance on the court, and right now it's heavily weighted in favor of the antislavery forces." "One more question, sir. Besides owning slaves, is there anything else the Justice Department security people overlooked when checking you out?" "Can't think of anything. Ah once organized a lynching, but that was when Ah was a kid, and Ah don't think that should be held against me now. We all do stupid things when we're sowing our oats." Development Bank President Is Liberal in Making Loans the bank's resources. For instance, the bank's present headquarters in Washington is reliably estimated to be worth between $7.5 million and $8 million.

Yet Herrera paid nearly $10 million for it five years ago, when it was worth even less. Not satisfied with wasting several million dollars on the present headquarters, Herrera recently sought to purchase a fabulous new building which would have cost $35 million. Aside from the fat price, the deal would have required the bank to loan the builders $19 million, a transaction that would hardly have aided the development of Latin America. Last-minute U.S. objections headed off the deal.

More serious than the personal ways in which Herrera has thrown around the bank's money are the slipshod lending practices he has tolerated. These came to light in a confidential report, kept under wraps since it was written in 1968 by a prominent consultant hired by the bank. The report found that: -The bank staff did not carefully study the way companies applying for loans were operated and customarily made "unsubstantiated laudatory statements about borrower management." -The bank had no staff capable of maksystem sufficiently comprehensive to cover its needs." -The gank had no staff capable of making a proper market study, which is essential to consideration of any loan. -Once the bank decided to study a loart application seriously, there was almost no chance the loan could be disapproved. The result of these gross deficiencies, the report found, was that a high percentage of the bank's loans were spent on projects that failed or ran into serious ti trouble.

In the face of this ringing indictment, some reforms have been made at the bank, including the establishment of a more professional staff. But many of the criticisms in the report are still valid today. BASILE RELEASED FROM JAIL From Page 1 plea and pleaded guilty to a charge of criminal contempt. He and the other two were jailed for sivil contempt for refusing to testify after being granted immunity from prosecution. But Basile later was indicted for criminal contempt for fleeing the state in defiance of a commission order to remain so he could be served with the civil contempt papers.

The criminal contempt charges carries a maximum penalty, of three years in but prison and a $1,000 fine, he apparently hopes to convince Judge Kingfield he fled the state only at the suggestion of a New York lawyer, Marvin Preminger, who is no longer representing him. His present lawyer, Samuel Bozza, Newark, told newsmen yesterday that Basile ran away because of some "bad legal advice." He said the underworld figure never would have fled if he was representing him at the time. Judge Kingfield ruled that Basile could remain free in $25,000 bail pending sentencing on the criminal contempt charge. He said he will order pre-sentence report and should be ready to issue his decision in about two weeks. In changing his plea, Basile said he was taking the action on the advice of his lawyer with full knowledge of the consequences.

In response to the judge's questions, he said no promises had been made to him by the commission in exchange for the plea. "No promises and no threats of any kind have been made that induced the entry of the plea," Mr. Bozza added. "It is a voluntary plea." In freeing Basile on the civil contempt charge, Judge Kingfield ruled that the underworld figure should stay in the New Jersey area unless he receives court permission to do otherwise. Mr.

Bozza noted that although Basile lives and works in Long Branch, he still visits his wife in Brooklyn on the weekends. The judge said he could continue to do this.

Grant Sharp, retired commander in Chief of US. forces in the Pacific, says he sees only two courses in Vietnam successful Vietnamization of the war or a resumption of bombing the North. Sharp, now a consultant to aerospace firms, told a news conference yesterday: "If the Vietnamization program works, we wouldn't have to start the bombing. If it doesn't, it's the only solution." The admiral said he had little confidence that the Paris peace negotiations "are ever going to be successful so long as we negotiate from a position of Pope Fails to End Debate on Celibacy AP News Analysis NEW YORK-Although Pope Paul VI says the rule against marriage for priests must not be eliminated or even discussed, it already is an issue of wide discussion in the church and some theologians predict an eventual change. They foresee a Roman Catholie return to the early Christian pattern, when ordained men might be either married or married.

1. This still is the basic approach in Eastern Catholic and Orthodox churches and in Protestantism. It was the 12th century, at the Second Lateran Council of 1139 A.D., that a western church Reds Ease Attacks As Tet Nears SAIGON (P) Half a dozen small Viet Cong attacks were reported in the Saigon area last night, and military action elsewhere in Vietnam tapered off as the Tet holidays approached. The South Vietnamese Foreign Ministry announced that government forces would observe a 24-hour cease fire for the lunar new year beginning at 6 p.m. Thursday.

U.S. officials American forces would go along. The Viet Cong had announced a four -day cease fire beginning at 7 a.m. Thursday. The incidents reported during the night in the Saigon included two attacks on government offices and the second ambush in a week of a U.S.

convoy on South Vietnam's most trav- eled highway. Rifle and rocket grenade attacks on the government offices 11 miles northwest and 12 miles southwest of Saigon killed four Vietnamese and wounded 19 others, the government said. One American military policeman and one Vietnamese civilian driver were wounded in the ambush 10 miles northwest of Saigon on Route 1. Damage was reported light. The convoy was carrying 200 cases of soft drinks to the U.S.

Army headquarters at Long Binh. After the ambush, South Vietnamese troops were sent out in armored cars to chase the Viet Cong. Instead they grabbed the soft drinks and a field radio on an escort jeep and fled back to the sanctuary of their camp. In the city, a South Vietnamese demolition team defused a bomb planted in a tree stump near a restaurant. A Viet Cong flag was draped over the stump.

and the bomb was set to go off when the flag was pulled away. Fewer than 20 rocket and mortar attacks were reported during the night, half as many as the previous night, and groung fighting was limited to small engagements after a weekend of the heaviest fighting in six months.

till 9:30 p.m. council fibed the present ban against clerical marriage. There had been earlier, varying decrees on the matter. Historians say some of those earlier edicts were honored more in breach than observ. ance.

At the outset of Christianity, some and perhaps most of the men whom Jesus chose as his apostles were married. St. Paul, although himself either single or a widower, suggested most of them had wives. He wrote in 1st Corinthians 9:5: "Do we not have the right to be accompanied by a wife, as the other apostles brothers of the Lord and Cephas?" Catholic scholars say that of 269 popes, about 40 up to the 9th century were married. From New Testament times, through the early centuries of Christianity, clerical celibacy was more an exception than a rule, historians say, although it was praised in early Christian writings.

Basile lives in the Harbour Mansion Apartments in Long Branch, and, according to Mr. Bozza, works as a salesman for an electrical company in Long Branch. The commission did not oppose Basile's release, but pointed out it wants to recall him later- in about a week for further questioning. The commission's executive director, Andrew F. Phelan, noted that it is beginning public hearings today into the operation of the Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office, nd that further interrogation of Basile would have to wait until the hearings are concluded.

"We do not feel justified in asking Mr. Occhipinti to stand confined until we can get back to him," Mr. Phelan said. He added that Basile has answered all the questions put to him, but said he did not want to characterize his answers as either "responsive or unresponsive" until the questioning is concluded. Mr.

Phelan declined to reveal the nature of the questioning, but told Judge Kingfield the commission wanted to ask him some more about "certain business interests." Basile testified before the commission with no apparent fear of mob retaliation. Mr. Bozza said he has asked for no special police protection, and pictured his client as ESCAPEE From Page 1 locked a door leading outside.

The commission has not revealed whether Basile is telling all he knows about the Cosa Nostra, but sources said yesterday that the underworld figure has a "poor memory" on some points. Basile, a cousin of Cosa Nostra Boss Simone R. "Sam the Plumber" DeCavalcante, Princeton Township, decided last Wednesday to try to purge himself of the civil contempt by talking.

Since then, he has testified Thursday afternoon and evening, Friday afternoon, and yesterday. Basile, Russo and Zicarelli were convicted of civil contempt by Judge Kingfield last September. But their jail sentences were stayed pending appeals, and last month the state Supreme Court upheld the convictions. Russo and Zicarelli, reputed gambling czar of Hudson County, are to be kept in jail until they decide to talk.
