Philip Evans, 37, partner in a firm with 120 bricklayers at Springfield, Ill., quickly lined up applicants during a 24-hour visit to Britain. He offered. $168 to $198 for a 40-hour week.

There, he spoke at length to the national- ists, who at first wanted to hold out for another 24 hours. The nationalists, members of the right-wing Condor group, seized the plane to give empha- sis to Argentina's- demand for control of the islands, adminis- tered for more than a 100 years by Britain. The 26 passengers, who were on board the aircraft with the 20 nationalists, and three of the six - member crew, were ex- pected to leave here Saturday night on the mail ship Darwin, Viet Nam as an "insolent car- rot and stick policy."

There has been no indication so far what action Britain will take against the "invaders", but Argentine President, Gen. Juan Carlos Ongania, a strict disciplinarian, has threatened them with the full penalties of the law.

The British insist they will re- duce their 51,000-strong Rhine army of 1967 unless the. West Germans supply. the whole $250,- 000,000 foreign exchange cost of maintaining that force. This does not mean Bonn paying Britain's bills, but arranging somehow for the British to earn enough money in Germany to ease the strain on foreign money resources. The Germans thus far have declined to offset more than about 40 per cent of the bill. If this is their final word, the British vow the Rhine army will be cut so that it uses up no more than about $100,000,000 in German marks a year.

Officially the Johnson admin- istration has set its face against reductions at this time. It has its own foreign . ex- change troubles. It learned from Erhard this week that the West Germans feel they cannot af. ford to offset the whole of the gram of dollar-spending. Another peril to NATO lies in de Gaulle's power to threaten the withdrawal of 72,000 .Fréeneh troops from West Germany un- less Erhard and the other allies accept his terms for keeping them there.
