TUESDAY, JANUARY 31, 1967 ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH 3C HKW UNTIL BARK' ER IE Walter Lippmann Fresh Opportunities in Vietnam THERE ARE REASONS FOR THINKING that the Vietnam conflict has come into a new phase where new opportunities present themselves. There are new indications that, at least for a time, we need not be caught between the old absolutes: to get in or to get out, to flatten Hanoi or to withdraw helter-skelter. There are some signs that lucid and skillfull diplomacy could now bring about a negotiated settlement. Much the most important cause of this change in the situation is the spreading disorder inside mainland China.

It is bound to mean a reduction in the material and political 'influence of Peking on Hanoi, and a corresponding increase in the influence of the Soviet Union. It means a reduction also in the imminence and extent of the Chinese threat to her neiehbors. 1 I if 7 A A 7 Edward W. Cissel, assistant headmaster at Pingry School, Elizabeth, N. has been named headmaster of John Burroughs School, 755 South Price road, Ladue.

Cissel will assume the new position July 1. William G. Craig, former headmaster, resigned last May to accept an appointment in the Office of Education in the Department of Health, Education and Welfare in Washington. Stanley E. Sprague is serving as acting headmaster.

Cissel's appointment was announced by Byron C. Herbert president of the board of. trustees. Selection of Cissel came after a nine-month search, Herbert said. Cissel joined the Pingry faculty in 1949, and has been assistant headmaster since 1964.

Pingry is a boys' school with an enrollment of 550. Cissel has headed the coeducational summer school there, taught a number of subjects and coached football, basketball and baseball at the junior varsity level. He is a graduate of Princeton and served in the Army in World War II and the Korean War. He is married and has By MYLES STANDISH In these days of sophisticated, blase and supposedly shock-proof audiences, any suspense melodrama that can make its viewers gasp and shriek at the showdown is something special. And "Wait Until Dark," which opened a week's run at the American Theater last night, does that.

Frederick Knott, who wrote that neat bit of suspense entertainment, "Dial for Murder," has cunningly contrived this. He knows how to grab the audience at the start two men in succession stealthily opening the door of a Greenwich Village basement apartment and creeping about in the dark. He knows how to inject humor for temporary relief of tension. He understands how to build menace, slowly but steadily, how to enhance it with colorful theatrics. Once he has lighted the fuse, he lets it sizzle.

Then, with a blind girl being stalked by a killer in a pitch-black apartment, he can cause an explosion into shock and ter- ror. This is a corking good chiller, and it holds attention every second. Well served by movie star Shirley Jones, her husband, Jack Cassidy, and the rest of the cast, it succeeds partly be Edward W. Cissel ,1 i ii. i By a Post-Dispatch Photographer Charles H.

Copley, former assistant collector of internal revenue in St.

Louis, died at St. John's Mercy Hospital 'last night after a long illness. He was 74 years old and lived at 528 Woodleaf court, Kirkwood. Mr. Copley joined the internal revenue office here in 1935, became head of the income tax division in 1945 and assistant collector in 1946.

He served briefly as acting collector in 1951. He retired in 1962. He was a graduate of the University of West Virginia and was an Army lieutenant in World War I. Surviving are his wife, Dru-cilia; one brother and three sisters. Funeral services will be $100,000 Given to Symphony By Charles H.

Third, the counter-revolution in Indonesia has made it quite evident that Chinese military power and revolutionary fervor cannot be carried across the sea. They are land-locked, so to speak, in continental China. THESE THREE DEVELOPMENTS have created a new situation and they have opened up new opportunities.

Nothing may come of it all; indeed, it is quite evident that the favorable opportunities could be erased suddenly. We need only take the advice of Barry Goldwater. What is promising in the situation could be destroyed In few hours; all that would need to be done is to attack China and blow up Russian ships at the same time. If we followed the Goldwater policy and attacked them, we could probably remove Mao's internal troubles on a nice bright morning. An American bombing attack on Chinese territory would do more to rally the Chinese to Mao than anything he himself could do.

If in addition, adopting the Goldwater advice, we closed Haiphong harbor and attacked Soviet ships, we would make a mighty contribution to healing the angry quarrel between Peking and Moscow. In fact, no one in the world knows so well how to consolidate world Communism, which has disintegrated dramatically, as does Barry Goldwater. THE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS of the new situation which present the new opportunities are these. We know from reliable reporters, notably from Harrison Salisbury, that within the Hanoi government there is a mood to talk about an end to the war without demanding impossible preliminary conditions. Along with this is the fact which is becoming increasingly clear, that the Viet Cong, who are perhaps four-fifths of the fighting force in the field against us, are, though dependent on Hanoi, increasingly determined to follow an independent course.

This may make it possible for the moderates in the constituent assembly in Saigon to negotiate an agreement with the moderates in the Viet Cong and thus bring the fighting to an end. If things can be coaxed and pushed along these lines, an eventual settlement might take the form of two provisionally separate Vietnams. It is not impossible to imagine that for a term of years both Vietnams would find it convenient to have a continuing U.S. military presence in some fortified enclave. It might help to stabilize the South Vietnamese government in the difficult period of reconstruction after this brutal and destructive war, and it might help the North Vietnamese government in following its nationalist desire for independence from China.

THIS CONTINUING U.S. PRESENCE for a term of years would be part of the peace treaty and should not be confused with the Gavin-Ridgway strategy for conducting the war from fortified enclaves. I have heard the idea described as "a Guantanamo solution" (Guantanamo is a fortified place on the Cuban coast which the United States occupies). A Guantanamo solution might be part of the answer to the problem as it actually exists today. For while for one, think we should never have com- "Ul James G.

Senator Jacob Javits correctly claims recognition as an idea man, adept alike at identifying closer to death, even if she re veals where that doll is hidden.

George Romney of Michigan celebrated his re-election with a telephone call to Governor Reagan and a snub of Gov. Rockefeller. NEW YORK DEMOCRATS ARE NOT MUCH better off. Their one and only star, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, acquires his luster from his late brother and does not yet represent or manage the state or city parties which nominated him.

His deputies behave oddly for presumed political strategists. They agreed upon Theodore Sorensen, the late President's counsel now practicing law here, as head of an effort to upset the entrenched Republicans. Mr. Sorensen, brilliant but moody, in his first interview told all the things he doesn't like about New York and wistfully recalled the advantages of that iron fence around the White House in Washington. Everybody is, of course, entitled to an occasional Freudian slip, but Mr.

Sorensen has also been making a practice of lecturing Democrats about their faults. STEPHEN SMITH, A KENNEDY brother-in-law who is helping to arrange a big new fund-raising dinner, has explained that he doesn't know what happened to all the money raised last time. This falls in the dangerous category of answering questions nobody ever asked him. The nation's great cities are today the frontiers of American democracy, and New York is the prime example. Their intractable problems are complicated, so expensive they require Federal tax money, and decidedly unromantic in general and in detail.

They cannot be couched into terms of good guys and bad guys, honest sheriffs and hostile Indians. Perhaps the country still suffers from the nostalgia for a simpler past which did so much to nominate Barry Goldwater in 1964. It would help to account for current neglect of the talent here and even contribute to present coldness toward President Johnson and the Great Society.
