NIXON AS LEADER
Having succeeded In ap
peasing Governor Rockefeller,
the Vice President has had
then to deul
with his moat
difficult prob
lem, which la
how to get a
platform and
t o persuade
the party to
tuko a slund
which will
give htm a
a chance to
win the election. For the
Rockefeller platform and the
Rockefeller stand wcra Indu
bitably the best bet If any
Republican can win the Presi
dency this year.
All the polls show that the
Republicans are a much small
er parly than the Democrats,
something like 40 is to 60. To
be elected, Nixon has to be
much stronger than his party
- if the Gallup poll is right,
he has to be even stronger
than Eisenhower was In 1956
To come near this he has to be
very strong In the big Induatrl-
al and urbanized atates. He
needs a platform which in 11
pledges to deal with public
needs Is substantially the same
ui the Democratic platform
and Governor Rockefeller's
persona! platform.
That this Is what ho would
1 like to do is shown by a speech
he made at St. Louis last

very careful Indeed to avoid
any departure from the main
lines of the Elsenhower eco
nomic and fiscal policy. This
does not mean that as Presi
dent he would not depart from
them. As a matter of fact he
would be almost bound to de
part from them. But it docs

mean that In the campaign he
must be careful not to say that
he has departed from them.
This is a acrlous handicap. For
the things that he and Rocke
feller would like to do can not
be done without a aubatantlal
change in the Elsenhower pol
icy. In the writing of the plat
form the dominant voices ap
pear to be not so much Eisen
hower and his immediate ad
visors, and not Nixon himself,
but the Republican Old Guard
In Congress fortified by an ec
centric fringe of reactionaries
who dream of a golden past
that never existed and pre
tend that they are conserva
tives. The main preoccupation
of tho Old Guard Republicans
is not to elect Nixon. It is not
even to carry Congress, which
they know is Impossible.
Their main preoccupation is to
preserve their power in Con
gress which rests on a coali
tion with many of the older
Sol thorn Democrats. The
bond of their coalition is that
the Northern Republicans will
help to stall off civil rights
measures and that with the
Southerners they will both
stall off the welfare measures.
This is the reason, which is
otherwise politically inexplic
able, why Nixon is having
such a hard time to get a civil
rights plank on which he can
stand in the big Northern
states.

come to an end if Nixon had
to do It. But almost certainly
It Is true that the country
would be in for a troubled
time.
As President in dealing with
a Democratic Congress, Nixon
would differ from Eisenhow
er in two main respects. The
first, which is obvious, is that
he is not Elsenhower, that he
is not a world figure, that he
is not above the party battle,
and that he docs not inspire
Instinctive popular affection.
The second, which is some
what less obvious, is that in
the 'fifties the country was
weary of the effort and exer
tions of the New Deal and of
the two wars. It was not too
difficult to be the national
leader on a policy of doing as
little as possible in a time
when nobody wanted to do
very much. But we are now
in the 'sixties, and as Nixon
and Rockefeller both know,
there are a great many things
which will have to be done.
It would be much harder for
Nixon to lead a Democratic
Congress affirmatively than it
has been for Eisenhower to
hold it down negatively.
In this question of Nixon s
prospect as an effective na
tional leader in a divided gov
ernment we shall see, I think.

coming campaign.

ROCKEFELLER'S SERVICE
Chicago - The. drama of the
pla'form, which provided the
Republican convention's only
real drama, Is
now over.
There is evi
dence that the
act was pretty
stirring, too,
al any rate be-
hind the
scenes. Con
trary to com
m o n report,
Gov. Nelson
A. Rockefeller Monday night
firmly refused to accept the
meaningless national defense
plank prepared by the plat
form committee. Vice Presi
dent Richard M. Nixon was
also boldly faithful to the
language and ideas of his New
York compact with Rocke
feller.
Meanwhile, however, all
sorts of rumblings had begun
to be heard from Newport
President Eisenhower might
well have been content to ig
nore the language of the plat
form, as he effectively ig
nored the Nixon-Rockefeller
compact, if he had only been
left to himself. But he was
not left to bimself.
THE Eisenhower staff, pre
occuoicd as always with
what is' called the Eisenhow
er image, got into the act
with both feet. The White
House liaison man in Chicago,
Robert Mcrriam, became ac
tive here. The Newport con
tingent became active there.
Great efforts had to be made,
before the Vice President and
the New York governor found
language which said what
they wished to say - that the
national defense effort must
be intensified and accelerated
without seeming too critical
of the Eisenhower defense
record.
The simple statement that
the defense effort must be
both intensified and acceler
ated is, of course, an implied
repudiation of the President's
repeated, often angry asser
tions that nothing of this sort
is at all necessary. Eisenhow
er was not pleased, according
to reports.
The Platform Committee
was not pleased either. It had
to be rather brutally blud
geoned into compliance with
the Vice President's will con
cerning the defense plank.
fpHE time has come, there-
J- fore, to Doint the drama's
moral. The moral concerns
the importance ot a breed of
politician that is too rare in
America - what may be called
the issues-and-Ideas politician.
There are two pre-eminent
issues-and-ldcas politicians at
this convention. One is Sen
ator Goldwater, the hero of
the extreme right. The other
is Governor Rockfeller. The
difference between them is
simple. Senator Goldwater's
issues and ideas belong to a
world that never was, or at
least a world that died at the
end of the 19th century. But
Governor Rockefeller's issues
and ideas are directly devel
oped from the realistic, cur
rent national situation.
When Governor Rockefeller
began to stake out his issues
and to insist upon his ideas,
the Republican majority was
both bewildered and out
raged. Unfortunately for the
party, the Republican major
ity really does not under
stand this kind of behavior,
except from members of its
own right wing.
Right wingers, like Sena
tor Goldwater, are permitted
and expected to talk about
their "principles." Everyone
else is expected to talk the
language of expediency. It
was highly inexpedient, not
to say tactless, of Governor
Rockefeller to challenge the
President on defense and
many other issues, and to ask
where the Vice President
stood on these issues.
Indigation was therefore
widespread. Almost no one
but the man who was thought
to be most adversely affected,
Vice President Nixon, had the
solid good sense to say what
ought to have been obvious.
Nixon quietly commented
that the New York Governor
had a perfect right to demand
ventilation of national issues
of the highest import.
.
U'VEN so, Governor Rocke-
XJ feller might easily have
.been rewarded with the kind
of grandiose public humilia
tion that most of the dele
gates here would love to in
flict upon him. The Issucs-
and-ideas politician always
risks more than the political
tactician. In the short run, he
causes bad feeling in his
party. In the long run, he can
only win if he has got his
facts precisely right, and has
also judged the meaning of
those facts with extreme pre
clsion,
That, really, was how Gov,
ernor Rockefeller won. If the
