No Discernible National Need Indicated in Presidential Vote
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune
Washington Correspondent
En Route to Washington
(Special) - Random conversa
tions with voters in various
states indicate no discernible
national mood as the nation
moves into a presidential elec
tion. Nor is there any strong
preference being expressed
tor one presidential ticket
over the other. As always, it
depends on who one talks to.
A California barber express
ed gratitude that President
Eisenhower bad kept him
from being recalled to active
duty - in short, he kept us
out of war. But he said he
didn't think Vice President
Nixon had the same peace
generating way about him.
"Nobody seems to like Nix
on. I don't have anything
against him, but too many
other people don't like him
for him to make a good presi
dent. I guess I'll vote for
Kennedy," he said.
The owner of a swanky
steakhouse near N i x o n ' s
hometown in southern Cali
fornia said he is a Democrat
and a Catholic and plans to
support Sen. John F. Ken
nedy. But he had doubts that
Kennedy can win because of
his religion. He believes
there is still considerable
prejudice against electing a
Roman Catholic to the White
House.
Kennedy Victory Seen
An Idaho fruit grower
thinks Kennedy has the elec
tion practically sewed up. The
way he figures it, Kennedy
will get the votes of all the
Catholics and all the elder
citizens who are anxious for
a federal medical plan to safe
guard them against financial
distress in times of ill health.
"My wife had trouble with
her feet. It cost ;ne $700. I
had the money, but there are
lots of folks who don't have
it," he said in support of a
medical insurance program.
The fruit grower also has a
deep - seated dislike for the
Republican party because he
contends its members include

the big financial interests
whom he worked hard to en
rich as an unrewarded oil
well driller in Oklahoma
years ago. He is convinced
both parlies are full of ques
tionable interests but the GOP
is worse in this respect.
A South Dakota grocery
store proprietor paused from
ringing up a bill to say: "You
hear a lot about a need for a
change around here. Of
course, I'm a Republican, and
I don't have too much to say
to those folks. But the trouble
is they're just looking for
Santa Clans. They want the
government to take care of
them."
Started During War
The grocer then waxed elo
quent on the problems of di
recting the younger genera
tion into the orthodox chan
nels of self-reliance, hard
work and responsibility.
"It all started during the
war,'' he said. "The kids got
to having plenty of money.
They've had plenty of money
ever since. Why is it the farm
ers around here can't even
have a vacation? It's because
the kids won't look after
things for them. They might
take off for town and not be
back for three days. When I
was a boy and worked on a
farm, a farmer could take a
vacation because he knew
we'd be there night and day."
The grocer liked Eisenhow
er because he talked the same
language and obviously shares
these views even if, as the
grocer said, Eisenhower did
n't know much about running
the government.
Farmer Unhappy
A couple of agents for the
U.S. Department of Agricul
ture in Wisconsin agreed that
the farmer generally is un
happy with the way things
have been going economically
for him.
"But as between the two
candidates, it's like flipping a
coin," said the elder one, ex
plaining that neither Nixon
nor Kennedy has wowed the
farmers yet.
"We've had an average of
two farm auctions a week in
this county, of farmers selling
out and going to the city.
There are three empty stores
on this street, businesses that
folded. If the farmer had it,
he would spend it. But he just
isn't getting it."
"I have an idea," said the
man who is personally synv
pathetic to the Democrats,
"that the farmers are going
to vote for the party and not
the candidate."
But which parly remained
an open question.

U.S. fo Launch
Monkey Satellite
Los Angeles - IUPII - The
United Stales, Iwice success
ful in recapturing n satellite
capsule from orbit, Saturday
scheduled an attempt to re
cover a monkey from a Dis
coverer satellite within the
next two months.
The word came as the Rus
sians announced they had
safely recovered two dogs
and other animals from their
latest animal. carrying satel
lite. But, Air Force spokes
men here said this probably
wouldn I change U.S. plans.
"We've had our plans for a
long lime," a spokesman said,
"and we're going to proceed
as scheduled, not be rushed
any by what the Russians are
doing. An Air Force spokes
man said after recovery of tne
capsule from Discoverer XIII
the attempt might come with
in a month, but others this
week were more cautious in
their forecasts.
The U.S. Friday made a
successful aerial catch of the
300-pound instrumented cap
sule from Discoverer XIV sat
ellite in the Pacific.
Although the Air Force
wouldn't say definitely, it is
doubtful the next Discoverer
satellite, number 15, schedul
ed to be launched from Van-
denberg Air Force base within
two or three weeks, will carry
life.
