What Is Johnson § Really Like By Marquis Childs WASHINGTON ---What is Pres‘ident Johnson really like? That ‘question is being asked not only 'all over America but throughout ‘the world. . The aura of power and partisan . politics will rapidly close in to shut off the view. This is inevitable in the office he now holds. In the first rush of sympathy the . sincere desire of almost everyone is to give all aid and comfort pos~* . sible to the new President who must take up his intolerable burden. It is being said with accuracy that he is the best-trained VicePresident ever to come into the Presidency. He has traveled to most areas of the world, he has sat in on most of the important conferences, he was at the elbow of the late President when the great decisions were being taken. But this ignores the temperament of the 55-year-old Texan, and temperament is as important as training in weighing the balance. From several who have worked closely with him in his nearly three years in the Vice-Presidency, thisisan attempt to get a glimpse of the inner man. First of all, he is a Texan inthe best sense of that special statehood, unmarred by the hate-mongering so widely advertised in récent vented civil rights legislation from.getting-to the floor by refusing to hold hearings. +++ +t In BOLIVIA, 4 Americans, a Dutch and a German engineer, and several technicians ofa government company that operates Bolivia's tin mines, were seized as hostages for two Communist labor leaders arrested by the government for political agitation.

The Americans seized by the miners are Thomas Martin and Michael Kristula of the U.S, Information Service, Bernard Rifkin of the Agency fer International Development, and Robert Fergerstrom of the Peace Corps. They had gone into the Catavi mining region with a U.S. government aid check of $15,000 to help toward building a school. Pres. Johnson offered full assistance in procuring their freedom. +++ +t A 3-way pact between the U.S, Federal Government, California and Chile was signed Dec. 6 in WASHINGTON, inaugurating a new type of technical assistance, in which California will give Chile advice and assistance in economic planning, agriculture, education, transportation and water resources development. California is particularly suited to this project because it shares similar geography.
