convention that nominated
Alt M. London In 103a.
I lie llunlea of Itepuullcnn
fogloa, young and old, were
imturnUy enraged to be Jerk
ed Into the modern (ge by
main force, at the very mo
ment when they had hoped
to commemorate William Mc
Klnlcy by publicly trampling
all over tlx wicked Governor
Itockofoller. Such la the aim-
ple explanation .of all the
pcovlah churning of the laat
day or ao, Ono can be pretty
aure II will aubaldo rather
rupldly, now Hint the Vice
Prualdont haa boldly lakon
charge.
But although tills peevlah
churning la likely to be aoon
forgotten, lt cause, the Fifth
Avenue compact, will effect
the whole courao of the com
ing Presidential campaign. It
points the course, Indeed.
IN HUMAN and national
policy tormi, the compact's
moat stirring fcaturo waa the
Vice President's abandonment
of Prcaldont Elsenhower's In
ternational and defense posi
tion, In favor of the Rocke
feller position, Out In domestic-political
terms, the com
pact's more significant fea
ture la the North-centered
campaign strategy which It re
veals and dictates.
This new Ncxon strategy,
one may say, was born in
Los Angeles, on tho day when
the Democrats so surprising
ly nomlnatod Sen, Lyndon
B. Johnson for the Vlco-
Prcaldoncy. Governor Rocke
feller was only tho midwife.
Before the Johnson nom
ination, in other words, the
Vice President and his staff
had planned to moke up in
the South for the electoral
votes they expected lo lose
to Senator Kennedy In New
England and the big North
ern industrial states. But af
ter tho Johnson nomination,
and long before Nixon's Jour
ney to see Rockefeller, this
reporter was told on the high
eat possible authority that the
strategy had been changed,
"Now, we're going to have
to slug It out In the big North
ern states, toe to toe all the
way," waa the statement.
On civil rights, as on for
eign policy and defense, Nix
on would certainly have pre
ferred to develop his position
in his own way and on his
own achcdulc. But after Nixon
had adopted the strategy of
"slugging It out in the big
Northern slates," he could not
possibly afford to fight for a
milk and water civil rights
plank against the kind caf
plank desired by Rockefeller.
WllIS, it can be stated, was
the decisive consideration
in Nixon's mind, when he
made his solitary decision to
put through a telephone call
asking for a meeting with
Rockefeller. The Vice Presi
dent might have mobilized his
big battalions to crush the
New York Governor on de
fense and foreign policy, al
though he certainly did not
wish to do so, since he and
Rockefeller were in basic
agreement. But Rockefeller's
additional threat to make an
issue of civil rights left Nix
on no choice at all.
On this Issue, Nixon had
to make Rockefeller his part
ner rather than fight him;
and this is what he has done.
This must mean, in turn, that
the once-high Republican
hopes for Southern electoral
votes will have to be aban
doned for good and all.
The converse Is not neces
sarily true. Senator Kennedy
cannot depend on getting all
the Southern votes. Some
Southern states may well
choose independent electors,
who will cast their votes for
the candidate of either of the
All Speeches Sound
Alike (Applause)
To Addled Writer
By DICK WEST
International Amphitheat
er, Chicago (UPD - I don't know
if you have ever been addled
by oratory, but I can toll you
it's as bad as being stupefied
by speeches,
In the past fortnight or so
of attending conventions, I
estimate that I have absorbed
at least 25 hours. of political
prose, which is about 15 hours
over my saturation point.
This forensic fallout has
reduced me to s quivering
mass of ear-bent metaplasm,
major parties. But after Nix
on's stand here on civil rights,
and especially after his sym
bolic, emotionally charged
stand on the sit-ins, the Nixon
Kennedy battle is certain to
be fought almost wholly
above the Mason-Dixon line,
(c) I960 New York Herald
Tribune Inc.
cringing before the spoken
word. I long ago lost all abili
ty to distinguish between
speeches. Now they all sound
like this:
"Mr. chairman, delegates,
alternates, distinguished
guests, undistinguished guests,
ushers, gate-crashers, mem
bers of the great unseen tele
vision audience, friends, fel
low Americans and Uncle Lu
ther. (Applausa)
"We are gathered here to
night for a great and solemn
occasion, and, yes, an occa
sion that is small and frivol
ous. We are here to nominate
the next nominee of the Unit
ed States! (Applause.)
"Our great party has be
fore It a task of heavy respon
sibility, which is not to be
taken lightly. The action that
we take here tonight shall de
termine, in large measure and
to a considerable degree, the
man who.
"Our great party has manv
men who. It Is a party that
spans the length and breadth
of our great land, from the
rock bound coast of Nebraska
to the sun-kissed shores of
Oklahoma." (Applause by Ne
braska and Oklahoma delega
tions.) We now have the first four
pages of this. Guess whole
thing would run 3,500 to 4,000
words; maybe little more.

FAA Cuts Flight
Insurance Limit
Washington (UPD - The Fed
eral Aviation agency has cut
the flight insurance limit at
Washington National airport
in a frank effort to reduce
the temptation for potential
airline saboteurs.
FAA Chief Elwood R. Que
sada said Wednesday passen
gers henceforth will be able
to buy only 165,000 instead
of $425,000 in flight insurance
at the government operated
airport. Other terminals are
not affected.

In the Days News
By FRANK JENKINI j
As this is written, Reprc
acnlatlvc Walter Jucld of Min
nesota has Just concluded his j
keynote speech at the Repub- .
llcan national convention. It j
impressed me as a master-1
piece. 11 was more than a !
great oration. !
It was a masterly summa
tion of the grave Issues that I
face our nation at this criti-1
cal moment in our history.
TN THIS 1860-1900 ccnlon-
nial year of the Republican
party, Congressman Judd
hearkened back to Abraham
Lincoln, the first Republican
1'rcaldcnt, and told his par
tisan hearers:
"The gravest Issue of THIS
century, loo, Is HUMAN
SLAVERY this time not
men enslaved by other men,
but MASSKS OF MEN EN
SLAVED BY GOVERN
MENTS." He added:
"MORE HUMAN BEINGS
ARE IN BONDAGE TODAY
THEN EVER BEFORE IN
J1UMAN HISTORY."
WHO arc these human be
ings in bondage that he 1
referred to?
They are the WHOLE
TEOPLES who have been
subjugated by communism, j
Who Is enslaving them?
The leaders of communism
arc enslaving them. The grim
objective of communism Is I
OUR WHOLE WORLD In j
bondage to a reactionary Idea ;
Hint we In the United States ;
of America refuse to accept.
fpiIAT Is the Issue we face.
I It is the issue we will ,
go lo war for-lF WE GO TO .
WAR. All other issues arc j
secondary. All our other prob
lems are cnpablo of being re- j
solved peacefully. This one j
can mean WAR In the final ,
extremity. Mr. Judd drama
tized that fact for us with
grim clarity.
Or so it seemed to me.
WHO Is tills man Judd?
Ills record la far too
long to go Into here. He start
ed out as a phyalclan and
surgeon. World War I came
along. He served through It
In the field artillery. He came
buck and tackled the Job of
LEARNING MORE. He has a
list of academic honom that
would fill the rest of this
column,
Me served as a medical
missionary and hospital su
perintendent In China. Ho
saw tho beginning of com
munism there at first hand,
lie camo home In 1038 and
spent two years In an attempt
to arouso Americans to the
deadly menace of communist
subversion In China. He was
elected to tho House of Rep
resentatives from Minnesota
in 1042, and has served there
ever since.
HE IS more than an orator.
He Is n man who has
seen much, who has learned
much, and who knows the
meaning of what he has seen
nd learned.
