Daa't ehew HI Jack Resting Back at Farm Meets Public 1st Time on Crutches MIDDLEBURG, Va AP-President Kennedy settled down today to a weekend in the country with hia family, and more rest and treatment for his lame back.

The President and his wife arrived Friday night by helicopter at their rented Glen Ora estate. Awaiting them were the Kennedy children. Caroline and John who preceded them from Washington by automobile. r. Janet Travell, the White House physician, arrived at the estate late in the morning to make her daily check of the President's back.

She drove up in a White House staff car in company with a man. presumably the Navy technician who has been giving Kennedy an ultra-sound treatment on alternate "days; Assistant news secretary Andrew T. Hatcher said Dr. Travell did not plan to remain overnight. Hatcher said Kennedy's condition continues to improve and that he has not lost any weight.

Kennedy made his first public appearance on crutches away from the White House Friday at the conference on international economic and social development at a mid-town hotel. As the band struck up "Hail to the Chief." the chief executive unceremoniously entered through a freight service door. The unorthodox entrance was arranged for the President's convenience as the shortest distance between two points. To save him from a long walk, Kennedy was driven to the hotel's rear where there was a ramp to to the service door. Kennedy easily swung himself) up the green carpeted ramp.

The administration views with grave I concern the strike under way i involving the martime industry." He described the maritime industry as "an important, vital" one and said "the nation can ill afford a shutdown of this kind." The effects of the strike have been slow to show up. Only six ships were tied up in New York Friday. In San Francisco, no vessels were scheduled to sail and there was no immediate way of measuring the scope of the walkout. Seven ships were being picket-! ed in New Orleans, and other ports reported similar situations. Union leaders said the number of vessels affected would mount over the weekend.

The first major passenger lin ers that might be snarled in the walkout are the United States and the Constitution, scheduled arrive here Wednesday. Tankers figure as the big economic worry of the strike. How- ever, the oil industry said the long negotiations prior to the walkout gave them ample time to meet the strike with full storage tanks. Sources in the petroleum industry said there was a 40-day su-ply of stocks on the Eastern seaboard. Four big companies Esso, Socony Mobil, Sun, and Atlantic are operating their tankers with crews whose unions are not involved in the strike.

The main obstacle in the dispute is the union's demand to be given the right to bargain for crews of American-owned ships mat are registered under foreign flags so-called runaway ships. There are about 430 of these, mostly tankers. Ralph E. Casey, president of the American Merchant Marine Institute, contended that the flag issue overshadowing the real economic issues involved. He said that American unions are pricing their members out of jobs." An able seaman earns $150 a week, augmented at times by overtime and extras to $200 to $225 a week, he said.

WW Casey said that about 300 of the ships involved receive'federal subsidies and that "75 per cent of any increases granted to personnel of these vessels would come out of the pockets of the American taxpayer." Jesse M. Calhoun, a union negotiator, claimed some of the struck shipping lines get $100,000 a day in subsidies from the government. He said this was "a disgraceful waste of the taxpay ers' money." The striking unions are the NMU with 37,999 members: Mast ers, Mates and Pilots with 12.000; Seafarers International Union with 23.000; Marine Eneineers with a pursers union with 500, and two unions of radio operators with a combined membership of about 1,500.

AP (-Moonshiners have taken to the road in this south Georgia area. Grady County Sheriff James T. Hicks says their latest trick is to mount a still on a flat-bed truck and hook up to the gas and water lines of a farm home. It takes only a few seconds to unhook the connections and speed off. Within the past few days, two mobile distilleries have been captured One had a capacity of gallons, carried its own mash, which was ready for cooking, and was mounted on the back of a two-town truck.

The moonshiners hide their mobile equipment in nearby swamps during the daytime, the sheriff's office said.

Tisler introduced the two others to Nacvalac as "Mr. Mack and Mr.

Jack," and 'the American friend left when one of the two flashed a badge. "Mirek," said Tisler, using a familiar form of Nacvalac's first name, "We would like you to be with us. Mr. Mack can open all the doors to the White House for you." "Mirek," Mack interposed, "if there is something we can do for you, the question of money is completely unimportant to us. We can get you all the money you want." Mack then promised a "nice big home, cars, clothing for you and your family and an excellent education for your children." "They gave me a presentation I couldn't even dream of," said Nacvalac who is married and the father of two.

Nacvalac said the agents wanted him to keep his job as counsellor in the Czech mission and work for the U.S. govern ment. When he made plain he would not accept the offer. Nacvalac said, "they started to threaten me. Told me we know what this means to you.

We can practically destroy you." Tisler even hinted at "physical liquidation." Nacvalac said. At the end of a two-hour talk. Nacvalac said, the agents art-peered "fed tip with the whole thing." Zdenek Cernlk. Czech minister who is acting U.N. permanent representative, said he received a note from the U.S.
