Rockefeller Runs Hard For
Presidential Nomination
EDITOR'S NOTE: It Gov.
Nelssn A. ' Rockefeller of New
York going to try for the COP
presidential nomination against
Viet President Nixon? Follow
ing is the first of three dis
patches giving the pros and
cons of the subject and spot
lighting his activities to date.

NEW YOKK.'lTIi The na
tion is just warming up to the
great duelling game called
"presidential candidates," but no
one is giving it more earnest at
tention than Nelson A. Rockefel
ler. Almost everyone takes it for
granted the personable New York
governor is trying to beat out
V.ce President Kichard M. Nixon
for the 1W0 Republican nomination.
The 51-year-old Rockefeller acts
. like a candidate. He speaks like
a candidate. He grins like a caa
', didate. And he travels like a can
didate. Next week he flies into
. California. Nixon's home ground
. and it is difficult to regard the
' visit as anything but a challenge
! But the more you talk to the
. top men around Rockefeller the
' more you come to the conclusion
. that he has not yet made up his
own mind.
: Millers Plan
: Arizona Move
COVE i Special Mr. and Mrs.
- Gary Miller have sold their place
' and have left for Flagstaff. Ariz.
. Mr. and Mrs. B. Curley cf Van-
couver. Wash., have bought the
'. place and are moving this week.
The next PTA meeting will be
' held Nov. 12. The 4-H achievement
night wiU be held after the meet
ing. The Cove PTA ham dinner was
- a big succeess. There was a music
variety act and an auction sale.
They cleared $192. There was a
big attendance with msny out of
. town people.
Mr. and Mrs. Ray Monhi and
I boys spent the weekend in Rich
. land visiting Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Sanderson. While there the men
' went hunting. Ray came home
with a five point buck.
The Quarterly conference of the
Methodist church was held Wed
nesday evening, witth the district
superintendent in charge. A pot
tt luck dinner was held with mem
bers of the Union church attend-
ing.
t Mr. and Mrs. C. Perry and
daughter, from Elk City, Idaho.
1 were in Cove over the weekend.
While here they attended the ham
dinner.
Floyd Richards has sold his
place to Col. Frank Nims of Fair
child Air Force Base, Spokane.
Wash. He will take possession next
August, alter he retires.
Miss Sandra Spickerman, a
teacher from Redmond, spent the
weekend visiting Mr. and Mrs. Ted
Johnson.
Mr. and Mrs. Bill Stark and
Lisa, from Caldwell, Idaho, were
here visiting her parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Melvin Marks.
One of the New York friends
closest to him put it this .way:
"If Nelson decides that it is
near hopeless to try to overcome
the undoubted lead Nixon now
has within the party, he won't
ty. But if he decides there is
widespread popular support counter-balancing
it, then he will..
That's what he is trying to find
out now."
Rockefeller at his own ex
pense is conducting intensive
privato polls arcund the nation.
On them, plus his personal trav
els, will largely depend an open
decision expected shortly after
the first of the year.
Some feel he is waiting too
long to make his move. But then
the "reluctant" candidate has
traditionally been an appealing
o-.e in American pclitlcs ani
there is the old strategy of let
ting the front-runner wear him
self out.
Laying Groundwork
Certainly he is laying the
groundwork for his candidacy
lie has spoken out on issues
only remotely connected with his
duties as governor of New York.
He has taken a position on Co
vin Premier Khrushchev's visit
and relations with Russia in gen
eral which is decidedly more
aloof than those bcth of Nixon
and President Eis-enhower.
His attitude toward Nixon has
been courteous and friendly. Hei
has said the vice president would
make a gotd, aggressive GOP
candidate. Friends say he does
not want a bitter fight that would
divide the party.
But he also feels that rivalry
for the nomination would be bet
ter than a cut and dried Nixon
nomination while the Democrats
are stirring up interest with a
slambang convention battle. He
pcints out there are more regis
tered Democrats than Republi
cans in the nation and is said to
feel the Republican candidate can
win only by swinging not only
independent voters but Democrat
ic voters to the GOP nominee.
Quietly Raising Idea
And though it has not come
from Rockeleller himself, some of
his New York supporters are
quietly raising the "Nixon can't
win" idea that proved to be the
cry that finished off the late Sen.
Robert A. Taft in his presidential
bid. .-
Rockefeller's technique in .win
ning the New York governorship
last year in his first try for elec
tive public office furnishes an in
structive blueprint on how he is
operating now.
It was almost ss if he let the
governorship come to him. He
did not announce his candidacy
until June 30, 1958, but at the Re
publican state convention on Aug.
25 he was nominated by accla
mation.
Then he swept to victory over
Gov. Averell Harriman while
other Republicans were toppling
across the nation.

WASHINGTON UPI' The
Agriculture Department today
tightened up its regulations gov
erning sales of surplus farm crops
overseas for foreign currency.
One of the new regulations un
der the so-called Public Law 480
program repeals a 90-day limita
tion on the period during which
the Agriculture Department can
claim refunds from exporters in
the program.
This repeal is aimed at export
ers who sell commodities for for
eign currency at unreasonably
high prices. These exporters then
trade the foreign funds for dollars
at the Agriculture Department.
