On Stopping Niftori
THE STOP-NIXON movement aDiiears to be
grinding along in second
T ii jT a i r-
joit oi me April zo presidential primary in renn
svlvania. in which the Vice President Dolled more
than 940,000 Republican
Liscnhower in liioz arm almost as many m given
the President four years later.
Gov, Nelson A. Rockefeller received only a
few more than 10,250 write-in votes in Pennysl
vania, but his largely anonymous supporters are
still promoting a draft. The New York Herald
Tribune on April 29 reported that a form letter,
signed by four pro-Rockefeller New York Re
publicans, is again being distributed.
The letter was first mailed to members of the
Republican National Committee in early April,
as disclosed by the New York newspaper on April
11. On the following day Gov. Rockefeller's of
fice issued a statement dissociating the Governor
from the letter and saying he "deplores this per
sonal attack on the Vice President.
"The letter expresses
Nixon could win the election if nominated and
accuses him of being "synthetic rather than na
tural." Included in the new mailing is a Denver
Post editorial of April 13 which declares that Gov.
Rockefeller "is the only man in sight at this
time who could win.
THE RENEWED EFFORT for Rockefeller
comes on the heels of a report from Phila
delDhia. Anril 23. associating that veteran Stop-
Nixoner, Harold Stassen, with distribution of
what the Philadelphia Inquirer described as a
loaded Questionnaire, sent to convention dele
gates, suggesting that Nixon cannot win election
as President in November.
Stassen was the prime
"dump Nixon" campaign
dent removed from the
little sunnort. of course.
Eventually Stassen resigned himself to de
feat and took the Republican convention plat
form to second Nixon's renomination. Subse
quently Stassen failed to get the G.O.P. nomina
tion for Governor of Pennsylvania (1958) and
was defeated as the G.O.P. candidate for Mayor
of Philadelphia (1959). He will be a delegate this
year to the Chicago convention.
THE STOP-NIXON movement may be a dud
nr o timo hnmh. rlflnenrliriD on which mindit
you consult. The veteran Thomas O'Neill of the
Baltimore Sun states flatly: "Pennsylvania made
it a certainty that the Republicans at uucago in
July will nominate Mr. Nixon."
But the usually astute Joseph Alsop reports
at the same moment: "New York's Gov. Nelson
A. Rockefeller has ctiven
for the Republican nomination, but he has not
given up all hope of being nominated." Alsop
cites flDDarenUV JeaKecl
given Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.) at least
a 55 Der cent to 4i per
possible ammunition for
"Nixon can't win."
Rockefeller, for his
himself about the country. He campaigned
successfully for his college roommate, Herman
T. Schneebeli (R), who won the seat in Penn
sylvania of the late Rep. Alvin R. Bush. And he
is on the hustings in JNortn Daxota.
Ahead for Nixon are further primary samp
lings, with the big one coming on June 7 in his
home state of California, the last large state pri
mary before the July 25 convention. Republicans
could get some real last-minute qualms about a

About 1,600,000 Americans are expected to

Other nations faced with a similar problem
have imposed harsh restrictions on the amount
of their currency a traveler may take abroad. If
the limitation is low though, it serves to choke
off foreimi travel altogether.
Sen. Warren G. Magnuson (D-Wash.) wants
to correct the tourist imbalance by more construc

abroad; it presents potential foreign visitors
"only the prospect of interminable visa delays,

customs of inspections and, until recently, the

Washington Report

EFFECTIVE SPEAKER
Washington - Sen, John F.

may happen

William S. v ' '
white mary o r be
yond it.
To an observer tills is the
most lasting impression from
Kennedy's television debate
with his primary antagonist
in West Virginia. Senator Hu
bert H. Humphrey.
Kennedy has developed into
kind of low-pressure non-
orator who ought to go a long
way In modern politics, for
politics no longer prizes the
overly robust tub-thumper, the
flag-waver, the eagle scream
er, the man of ft hundred pur-
Surplus Property
Act Considered
Washington - A bill Intro
duced Jan. 7, 1959, by Rep.
Charles O. Porter (D-Ore.)
amending the Surplus Prop
erty act of 1944 by eliminating
the requirement that property
conveyed for historic-monu
ment purposes must have bean
acquired by the United States
on or before Jan. 1, 1900, has
been reported favorably by
the House Government Activi
ties subcommittee of the Gov
ernment Operations commit
tee. It goes next to the full
committee.
Subcommittee chair man
Jack Brooks (D-Texas) said he
was happy that Porter's bill
(HR 1309) had been approved
by the members of the sub
committee. He said he had
long been interested In sites
of historic Interest In the West
as well as in other parts of the
nation.
Brooks observed that the
date requirement had made it
impossible for a historic build
ing in Roseburg in Porter's
district to become a federal
museum without special legis
lation "even though it had
been willed by its owner to
the government for that pur
pose before her death. '
Brooks noted that the Fed
eral government since Jan. 1,
1900, lisa acquired other his
toric properties dating "aa far
back as the American Revolu
tion." He said that despite the
desire of various civic bodies
to maintain them as historic
monuments, the acquisition
date "has been the blocking
obstacle."
Brooks and Porter, sponsor
of the amending legislation,
pointed out that the legislation
provides suitable safeguards
"to prevent wholesale or in
discriminate transfers." It pro
vides specifically that surplus
property may be transferred
to the states only in conform
ity with the recommendation
of the deportment of the Inte
rior's advisory board on na
tional parks, historic sites,
buildings, and monuments.

Easy does It with Kennedy
- and does It extremely well
Sports writers who long have
covered major league baseball
rightly regard themselves as
able to tell a real "money"
hitter from what they used
to call a "morning-glory." This
was a fellow who would
smack the ball heartily in the
springtime but would fold up
under the pressures of the
summer.
a a a
THIS correspondent has
spent a good many years
watching the batting form of
politicians. Rightly or not, he
offers himself as a reasonably
competent critlo in this spe
cialized field. And his verdict,
for what it may be worth, is
that Kennedy has turned into
a real money hitter as a politi
cal speaker - a man capable
of hitting the ball when and
where it counts,
This Kennedy - and again
regardless of where his pres
ent candidacy may end - Is no
morning-glory. That is for
sure.
Indeed, though the West
Virginia primary has been a
hard and devlslve and damag
ing thing for the Democratic
party generally, it has also
had Its uses. It has shown that
the front-runner, Kennedy, or
the front-runner at any rate
until the West Virginia ballots
are counted on May 10, can
take it as well as dish it out.
e a
rriHE HARSH necessities of
-- the campaign through the
valleys and over the bleak and
brooding hills down there
have rubbed oft Kennedy's
face forever that look of un
due youth which used to be
one of his biggest handicaps.
He has demonstrated that he
can control himself well In
cruel and punishing personal
situations.
It is not easy, after all, for
any man to respond with ha
bitually cheerful poise to the
peculiar kind of question that
Kennedy alone has had to an
swer over and over again:
"What about your religion (aa
a Catholic)?"
And he has proved beyond
doubt, contrary to ah old and
fairly wide public Impression,
that this is no nice boy with
wind-blown hair. This Is unde
niably a full-grown man able
to keep his head, and also able
to limit his promises to the
voters to such boons and bless
ings from Daddy Washington
as are actually attainable In a
world of reality.
e a e
A LL THIS Is not to say that
Senator Humphrey his
looked either inept or irre
sponsible, considering the ad
vanced liberal views he holds.
It is not to say that Kennedy
necessarily ought to win, eith
er West Virginia or the nomi
nation itself. It is not to say
that there has been no rough
in-fighting by the Kennedy
people, as by the Humphrey
people.
It is only to say. In ordinary
fairness, that young Jack Ken
nedy has grown up, assuming
he needed to grow up, through
those urgent and bitter weeks
in West Virginia. His opposi
tion endlessly charges htm
with running "on Papa Joe
Kennedy's money." Maybe so,
to a point.
But not "Papa Joe Kenne
dy" and not any other man
has supplied Senator John
Fltigerald Kennedy with the
Inner personal qualities he has
shown in West Virginia - guts
and a striking ability to talk
to people neither up nor down
but with a plain but genuine
eloquence. This 4buld stand
him in gocej stead if he should
wind up on the Democratic
national ticket this fall - on
either-end.

tor denounces the administra
tion's health-care plan for the
aged aa "socialized medicine
and a "dime store new deal,1
May I call the senator'! at
tention to the fact that such
archaic thinking has always
greeted any progressive
thought or proposal, and has
invariably gone down to de
feat, to wit, the steam railroad
train, the telegraph, the tele
phone, the electric light, the
parcel post, the eight hour
day, women's right to vote,
and the aeroplane as a fight
ing unit of the nation's mili
tary system, to name only a
few Ideas that have become,
each an accepted part of our
everyday lives, yet criers have
hailed each, in its turn, a
swift and sure death blow to
our civilization if not the
whole world.
It takes positive, progres

On Death Penalty
To the Editor; I have no
ticed in the papers several
articles on the death penalty
in which It was labeled as
being "unchristian, barbaric,
legalized murder and so on."
The death penalty has been
In force since the time of
Noah. Genesis, ninth chapter,
sixth verse: "Who so sheds
man's blood, by the hand shall
his blood be shed."
The same law and penalty
was written in the law by
Moses, it was also mentioned
In the Sermon on the Mount;
also by Paul In the 13th chap
ter of Romans.
I remember the great cam
paign for prohibition from
1900 until it was passed, when
anyone who opposed it was
counted with the sinners.
After 13 years of prohibi
tion, and up to the present,
things are just as bad or
worse than it was before they
started.
So I say we had better take
a good look at this proposition
before we make another cost
ly mistake.

their key executives.

Randall said however the
number of executives receiv

small.
He said he believed firmly
that Incentives and Individual
reward for effort are basic to
the free enterprise system.
But "incentive It one thing
and avarice quite another."
"Swollen" executive sala

could lead to dangerous un

Cheaper Vacations
Subject of
By Michael Frome
Bt DICK WEST
United Press International
Washington fUTB There is
a fellow here, a sort of latter
day Duncan Hines, who is a
professi o n a l
tourist.
It is his mis
sion In life,
and a noble
calling It is, to
teach people
how to enjoy
vacations. But
however wor
thy the under
taking, it
Dick Wait
looks to me like a
hopeless
task.
The way I look at it, if the
good Lord had intended for
people to enjoy vacations, he
would have made them that
way. I mean, he would have
made them resistant to sun
burn and mosquito bites and
ptomaine poison and lumpy
mattresses.,
Nevertheless, this fellow,
Michael Frome by name,
keeps plugging along on the
chance that If he can't make
vacations enjoyable, he might
at least make them bearable.
Skeptical as I am, I must say
that I think his basic approach
is sound.
Suggests Ways to Save
Frome takes the tack that
nobody can enjoy himself as
long as ha Is spending money.
It is his theory that If vaca
tions were cheaper, people
would be better able to toler
ate them.
A former newspaperman
and travel editor for the
American Automombile asso
ciation, Frome last year
brought out a book on this
subject entitled "Better Va
cations for Your Money." Let
me add here that his motives
were not entirely altrustic.
The book costs $1.95.
I particularly admired his
solution to the tipping prob
lem, which as everyone
knows, is the most distasteful
thing about vacations. Frame's
advice was that men should
turn over this chore to their
wives. You can immediately
see the advantages this offers.
When the motel doorman-
I regret to say that some mo
tels are now employing door
men - comes up for a gratuity,
the husband raises the hood of
the auto and pretends to be In
specting the manifold gasket
or something. Then his wife
starts fumbling in her purse.
Losing Propesltlon
The doorman will realize
Instantly that he has a losing
proposition. Three other motel
guests will drive off unsoli
cited if he waits for milady to
find a coin among all that
handbag debris.

however, that Mr. K got
belly full of Nixon at their
notable kitchen conference in
Moscow. That took place when
Nixon visited the USSR capi
tal and toured the U.S. Expo
sition there. He and his host
had at each other with words,
some real hot, with a modern
American kitchen as a DacK
droD. Nixon's Gallup Poll ratings
instantly zoomed. His cam-
Daien strategists were pleased
but acknowledged that rising
ratings would be more helpful
in October. 1960, than in 1999.

friends that the vice presi

tourists should behave when

when trading with Indians. In

President Eisenhower prom
ised during the 1952 campaign
to make the Vice President an
important part of the new ad
ministration. He did so to a
degree unexampled.
The vice presidency must
continue to expand in respon
sibility, Nixon tells his callers.
He agrees that Eisenhower did
a lot for the second office, but
Nixon regards that as only a
beginning.
Nixon Wants
Selection of a vice presi
dential nominee to run with
Nixon becomes, therefore, a
matter of careful selection.
Nixon's own specifications for
the 1960 Republican vice
presidential nominee are
these:
-The nominee must agree
with Nixon on policy,
-He must be a good cam
paigner. -He must be capable of dis
charging executive assign
ments of greater scope than
those assigned by Eisenhower
to Nixon.
-No account need be taken
of geography in choosing the
Republican vice presidential
nominee, nor should the Re
publicans under any circum
stances attempt to balance
their ticket with a Catholic In
second place.
To seek such balance of the
ticket would be a crass thing,
Nixon believes, resented by
the public.
Rockefeller Question
Lingering doubts that Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller of New
York has abandoned hope of
seizing the Republican nomi
nation will linger so lona as
he refuses to endorse Nixon
for the nomination. A realistic
appraisal of the situation must
give due weight, however, to
other things Rockefeller has
been saying.
In an April 22 Philadelphia
speech, the Governor took a
dim view of Eisenhower for
eign policy. He urged that the
Administration stop improvis
ing its world leadership to
meet threats to freedom.
Last week Rockefeller ex
pressed a preference for the
Democratic approach to fi
nancing old age medical aid.
Such direct or implied criti
cism of the Administration
could cause Elsenhower to
veto any move to nominate
Rockefeller for president.
