OREGON Kennedy Sees Traditional Loss Of Seats in House Harmful To Program During Next Session Washington -H'PH-President Kennedy savs that if Demo crats suffer the traditional mid-term loss of 39 House seals in the Nov. 6 election, it will be impossible for him to get any important domestic legislation through the next Congress. In his first inlervicw since the Mississippi integration crisis, Kennedy also ex pressed belief that southern congressmen will not take re prisals against him in the next session because of the use of troops in the bitter dispute. . On the Cuban issue, the President predicted that Fi del Castro "eventually is going to fall." Vital To Program! The President frankly ad mitted that he docs not enjoy campaigning "very much" but said he has embarked on the most intensive effort of any President in an off-year be cause it is vital to his pro grams to get more pro-administration Democrats elected. He observed that during his first two years in the White House, he was con fronted by "nearly total op position" by congressional Republicans and lost nearly one-fourth of the Democrats on critical new frontier bills. Kennedy noted that the presidential party customar ily loses an average of 3!) House seats in a non-presidential election. "If we suffer the usual mid-term fate which is the loss of 39 seats," the Presi dent said, "You can see (hat we won't pass any legislation in tile next two years of the kind that I think is so im portant." He cited a series of his pro- posals which were defeated in the 87lh congress: Medical care for the aged, a depart ment of urban affairs, aid to higher education and his farm bill. Kennedy served notice he would try again in the new Congress to have these programs enacted. He touched on the possible political effects of the Missis sippi crisis for the first time publicly since rioting broke out at the state university over the admission of Negro James Meredith. Good Deal of Concern Asked if his use of troops might cost him southern sup port in the next session, Ken nedy commented: "What has happened in Oxford, Miss., has caused a good deal of con cern. I think that most people in the South recognize my re sponsibility is to carry out the court order. I think we will get support in the South for those measures in the same way we did in the last two years." The President said it was too early to forecast if there Eddie Rickenbacker Proves Memory Good New York - IUPII - World War I ace Capt. Eddie Rick enbacker proved recently his memory is as good as his fly ing. Richkcnbacker recogniz ed a man in the Stanhope ho tel, whore he lives, and re membered his name although they hadn't seen each other for 35 years. The man was John F. Is ard, new manager of the Stanhope, who had been as sociated with the Savoy Plaza hotel when Richkenbacker lived there more than three decades ago. would be any political reper cussions in November be cause of the Mississippi situa tion but tgain expressed confi dence there would be no re prisals when Congress re sumes in January. Asked about the possibility of Cuba as an election issue, Kennedy said he was sure that both himself and the American people were con cerned about the Communist takeover there. "I am not sure that it is a party issue," he said however. "1 think we are all concerned about Cuba and as you know we are taking a lot of steps to isolate Castro who we be lieve eventually is going to fall." He gave his personal views on campaigning when asked if he enjoyed the brisk pace he is setting this year. Great Myth "No I don't enjoy it very much," he acknowledged. "I think one of the great myths in American life is that those in politics love to campaign. Well, maybe some do, but it is hard work and you make a lot of speeches and I have a good many other things to do." Kennedy expressed hope that the campaigning by him self and his Republican presi dential predecessor, Dwight D. Eisenhower, would help bring out voters this year. Of Eisenhower, the Presi dent commented: "I think he is very helpful. Some of his speeches may not be so help ful but at least the fact thai he is working hard and I am working hard, all that means that the people of the United States will realize how im portant the election of a Congress is."
