RHODES S. .. met with President PARIS -President Lyndon B. Johnson plans a meeting with French President Charles de Gaulle sometime in 1964, accord- ing to a message released by de Gaulle's office yesterday. But Johnson's message left open the place for such a meeting. Following the funeral of President John F. Kennedy in Washington, there were reports that de Gaulle would return to the United States for a meeting with the new chief of state. But later French sources hinted de Gaulle would prefer to have Johnson come to Paris. In the message Johnson told de Gaulle, "I am deeply grateful to you for your kindness in sending us a miessage of sympathy in the name of the French people. I still look forward to having deeper conversations with you next year." Ma EXeed TopsBigget Outlay Ini World War II WASHINGTON (A') - President Lyndon B. Johnson is attempting to work out a federal budget ranging between $98 billion and $103 billion for the 1965 fiscal year starting next July 1, the White House said yesterday. Presidential Press Secretary Pierre Salinger gave this range of figures to newsmen, he said, to try to get the matter of the budget into perspective. This effort followed a confer- ence between Johnson and nine governors and word from Gov. James A. Rhodes of Ohio quoting the chief executive as saying the budget may go above $100 billion. For Johnson, who has pledged his administration to thrift and frugality, this would mean a rec- ord spending program for either wartime or peacetime. .The largest amount ever spent in one year-98.3 billion-was in 145 the year World War II The late President John F. Ken- nedy submitted to Congress last January a budget calling for ex- pendiure of $98.8 blion in th cren rfiscal year.aBut Teasury said actual spending probably will be about $1 billion below that, and Lthus not a record. Perhaps Johnson gave some- thing of a tiipoff to his explana- tion in his first address to Con- gress as President Nov. 27. He pledged at that time that "the government will be administered with the utmost thrift and fru- gality," and that he will insist on a dollar's value for a dollar spent. But he added, "This does not mean we will not meet our un- filled needs or that we will not honor our commitments. We will do both." Governor John A. Love of Colo- rado told reporters Johnson said he thinks he will be able to re- duce 'the budget Kennedy would have submitted next month by $3 billion. MayNotAct On Bias 13111 Until 1964 WASHINGTON (A') -- A full- speed ahead signal was raised yes- terday for machinery to pry the civil rights bill from the Rules Committee so the House can vote on it. But even if the move succeeds chances for action this year seem slim. Whether the bill is acted on before the Christmas recess or afterward, House Speaker John W. McCormack (D-Mass) said, will depend on what happens to a dis- charge petition that will be filed to get it out of the committee's hands. The measure has high priority on President Lyndon B. Johnson's legislative list. The discharge move was launch- ed in earnest by the House leader- ship in face of unbending refusal by Chairman Howard W. Smith CD-Va) to have his Rules Commit- tee take up the bill this year. McCormack said it is very un- certain that action can be taken before January. He added, how- ever, that it would be a distinct advantage if the discharge peti- tion attracts enough signatures be- fore the recess so the measure can be called up for House action next month. The Christmas recess is due to start Dec. 20, which means no action after that could come be- fore Jan. 13. For the petition to take the bill away from the com- mittee will require 218 signatures of the 435 House members. McCormack told reporters he I had assured Smith that if his coin- mittee cleared the bill before the recess it would not be scheduled for floor action before January. When Smith declined, the signal tget the petition machinery roll- ing was raised. Rep. Richard Bolling CD-Mo), backed by the leadership, already has taken the first step in this parliamentary shortcut. Last week, he asked the Rules Committee, of which he is a member, to clear the civil rights bill. TWO MORE SUICIDES: Report Crackdown inSaigon South Viet Nam, according to re- ports published yesterday in the Detroit News.- The Revolutionary C ouncil' headed by Gen.

In a personal decree entitled "The Pastoral Task," the Popes freed his bishops fromn the neces- sity of seeking Vatican authoriza- tion in the exercise of certain functions. The Pope's action was consider.- ed a first step in decentralizing the concentrated power of the Roman Curia, his network of ad- ministrative agencies. It also rep- resents a limited step towvard shar- ing Papal-Episcopal authority. The concept of sharing, called collegiality, has been a major is- sue at the nine-week second ses- sion of the Vatican Ecumenical Council. Pope Paul's decree ap- peared to support progressive bishops who favored the concept. Conservatives had opposed it. The Roman Catholic ruler spe- cifically granted the bishops 40 faculties or powers and seven privileges that previously had been given only on application to the Vatican. either on an individual or renewable five-year basis. Others have been said to in- clude high school teachers, civil servants, officers and wives of former officials. Vietnamese, are said to have reacted, not so much to the fact that the persons ar- rested had been taken into cus- tody (some of whom may have been connected with the Diem re- gime) but because they felt the mode of arrest had been arbitrary. A woman, who had been re- leased recently after 10 days of detention, reports that there are 200-300 political prisoners held in 30 cells in a police heddquarters. Prisoners were nDt allowed to receive visitors or speak to a law- yer, she claimed. Other political prisoners report- edly were being held in the cen- tral prison of Chi Hoa outside of Saigon, Important prisoners such as Ngo Dinh Can, the late presi- dent's brother, and Ngo Trong Hieu, former Civic Action Minis- ter, reportedly are being held in a vast compound near the airport. Ngo Dinh Can was handed over by United Steates authorities to the junta a few days after the coup against a promise that he would receive due process. Nothing has been said about him since.
