(Telephoto) Barkley, Despite Be Counted Out By RAYMOND LAHR Washington (U.R) Some veter an democrats say that Vice Pre sident Alben W. Barkley, despite his age, cannot be counted out of the presidential picture if President Truman does not seek re-election. National Income Still Climbing Washington Pi The nation al income is still climbing, though slower than it has been, and Americans are salting away a bigger chunk of it in savings. The commerce department re ported Sunday that, in the July September quarter of 1951, na tional income reached an an nual rate of 278 billion dollars. This is ZVi billions higher than the previous quarter. The securities and exchange commission reported savings rose to $14,900,000,000 during July-September, reflecting high er disposable income and a level ling of consumer spending. One apparent trend noted was diversion of funds from non-liquid savings, such as the purchase of new homes, into liquid savings.

However, Barkley will be 75 on Nov. 24, two months before the next presidential term be gins. It would defy tradition to nominate a man of that age for the back-breaking job in the White House. Barkley is viewed as a poten tial contender by democrats who think his wide acquaintanceship and popularity among the rank and file of the party would be great assets at the national con vention. Some are convinced that he is held in high regard by Mr. Truman, who can virtu ally name his successor if he does not run himself. Barkley demonstrated his po pularity four years ago when his keynote speech to the demo cratic national convention just about ended the maneuvering over the vice presidential nomi nation. . Mr. Truman's congressional friends profess ignorance of his political plans, although there have been more public and pri vate expressions of doubt in re cent weeks that the president will seek another term. Some of these friends believe he owes it to them to show his hand soon. Others, however, be lieve it would be strategically unwise because doing so might dissipate his influence in con gress and in the party organiza tion. Sen. Robert S. Kerr believes Mr. Truman and Barkley will head the democratic slate again in November. "If Mr. Truman does not run, it will be Chief Justice (Fred M.) Vinson," the Oklahoma de mocrat said Friday night on the Columbia Broadcasting system's "Capital Cloakroom" radio pro gram. Amid continuing speculation about Mr. Truman's plans, Sen. Owen Brewster (R-Me.) said to day that Gen. Dwight D. Eisen hower's announcement of avail ability for the republican nomi nation had made the French "uneasy" about the future of the European defense program. Brewster, long a Supporter of Sen. Robert A. Taft (O.) for the GOP nomination, has often said that Eisenhower is indispensa ble to the success of the Euro pean defense build-up.
