John Vessey, Jr., chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, refused Sunday to reveal whether the United States would re- taliate for terrorist bombing of the Marine headquarters in Beirut as did the Israelis immediately following the terrorist bombing of its headquarters in Tyre last Friday. Vessey ruled out any joint action with the Israelis.

"The Israelis are at war with the Syrians. We came in as a peacekeeping force to try and help re- establish Lebanon, to get both the Israelis and the Sy- rians out." Asked about retaliation, Vessey replied, "We need to find the perpetrators. We don't need to side with the Israelis or the Syrians." Vessey said he did not know who was responsoble for the terrorist bombing of the Marine barracks which took some 230 American lives. But while being vague about retaliation, he added, "I think we should attack the terrorists." Weinberger, appearing on ABC-TV's "This Week With David Brinkley," said he would not discuss what action, if any, the U.S. would take against those responsible for the terrorist attack. There have been some reports that in moving in another aircraft carrier into the waters off of Lebanon, the U.S. may be planning air attacks similar to the ones staged by the Is- raelis last Friday. But Weinberger said the aircraft carrier that is arriv- ing off the coast of Lebanon, is accompanying a ship car- rying the marine contin- gent that will replace the Marines now in Lebanon. He said that while the new Marines are going in and the old ones leaving, there is a certain "overlap" in the number of ships the U.S. has off Lebanon. In its initiial reaction, the Reagan Administration said that it was "revolted" by the terrorist bombing in Reagan Names Rumsfeld Special Mideast Ambassador WASHINGTON (JTA) — President Reagan named Donald Rumsfeld, a former Congressman who was Sec- retary of Defense in the Ford Administration, as his special representative in the Middle East. He succeeds Robert McFarlane, who was re- cently named the President's national secu- rity adviser. served the Nixon White House first as director of the Office of Economic Stabili- zation Program from 1969 to 1972. In 1973-1974, he was United States ambassador to NATO and then served as Secretary of Defense from 1975 to 1977 when he be- cathe president of Searle. Tyre and appeared to indi- cate that it did not disap- prove of Israel's immediate retaliation. Officially, State Department spokesman John Hughes said he had "no comment" when he was asked about the Israeli bombing of Syrian and Palestinian targets in Lebanon. Unofficially, however, the department called Israel's action "understandable wrath." After previous Israeli re- taliatory strikes, the State Department had either con- demned them or had de- plored the use of violence by all sides. When Hughes was asked if Israeli retaliation would result in an escala- tion of violence in Lebanon, WITH AN EDISON INTERRUPTER CALL FOR FREE ESTIMATES SUPREME ELECTRIC • Computer Editing • Dolby Stereo & Audio Dubbing • Professional Video Equipment • Dubbing & Special Effects PARTY CONSULTANTS Presents A Special Call For An Appointment . . .

But he said he would only take a leave of absence from his job as president and chief executive officer of G. D. Searle and Co. Rumsfeld gave no indi- cation of when he would make his first trip to the Middle East. "I want to spend some time here and get briefed up and visit with people who have been involved prev- iously," he told reporters. Rumsfeld, who has no ex- perience in the Mideast, is a friend of Secretary of State George Shultz, who repor- tedly had urged that he be named to the post. Reagan said that Richard Fairbanks, who is now in Geneva where the Lebanese reconciliation meeting is going on, will "continue his critical involvement in these issues." But there was no indication whether Fair- banks will serve as Rumsfeld's deputy as he did under McFarlane. There have been reports that Alfred Atherton, who has just ended a term as ambassador to Egypt, maybe named as a deputy representative for the Mideast, but Rumsfeld said that he had not made any plans dealing with person- nel. Rumsfeld, who will have the personal rank of ambas- sador, was a Repulblican Congressman from Illinois from 1962 to 1970.

Hughes said the United States still plans its own re- taliation against the group that committed the terrorist act against the Marine headquarters, but would not say what form this would take or when it will come. He said the U.S. in- vestigation was still going on. When asked about Is- rael's immediate response, Hughes said the Israelis made their own judgment on how to respond and the United States will make its own judgment on its re- sponse.
