J Reston says main issue in latest allied offensive is not news blackout, but policy question of why S Vietnamese still rely on massive US air support to break up enemy troop concentrations and supplies; says it is not hard to reconcile strategy of withdrawal with strategy of preventive strikes in Cambodia and Laos; queries scope of US air power; suggests question of withdrawal be explored again; says reaction to news blackout is indication of element of mistrust that still 'poisons' all discussions of war in Washington
