Tin United Press International New York - Ojpo - There is nothing coy about Nelson Rockefeller when people ask him about the Presidency and And a lot of neoDle are ask ing him about it. The New York Governor is aware that he Is well in the forefront of Republican pos sibilities at this time. He ac knowledges without any phoney modest disclaimers that this is so. The fact is that a great many people, including Pres ident Kennedy, seem to be lieve that it is pretty close to a cinch that Rockefeller will be leading the GOP ticket in the next election. There is one notable excep tion: Nelson Rockefeller. Not Candidate newsmen, politicians and friends for a long time that they make one big mistake about him. "They just won't accept what I say at face value," he has said. "But the truth is that I mean just what I sav. And eventually people will realize it And what he is trying to get across these days is that he is not a candidate for the Republican Presidential nom ination in 1964. He may well be. But he isn't - yet. A favorite word in the Rockefeller vocabulary with regard to the Republican nom ination is "mobility." A second is "homework." Rockefeller's position on the Presidency can be staled authoritatively as this in the next few months, he The 54-year-old multi-mil-1 and his aides are going to do Morse Proposes To Outlaw Drinking in Rooms of Capitol m Km By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Washington Correspondent Washington (Special) - In the current Senate rules fight most senators know how they will vote on whether t o curb filibust ers - but how will they vote on the more u n com fort able issue of whether t o curb cocktail parties be- smith neath the Cap itol dome? The filibuster issue centers on changing Senate rule 22, governing proced les for end ing debate. The drinking is sue centers on rule 34, barring lighted cigars" in the Senate chamber, for Sen. Wayne Morse proposes to add a pro hibition against serving alco holic beverages in the public rooms of the Capitol and Sen ate office buildings where re ceptions are not infrequently held. Launched last spring on the very night President Ken nedy was attending a sedate reception in the Capitol at which liquor was served, Morse's campaign to shame his colleagues into adopting an anti-tippling rule gained new ammunition last week when Sen. Vance Harlke (D Ind.) threw a party in the Capitol which the Chicago Tribune described as "the big gest, wettest and longest ju bilee ever staged on Capitol Hill." Chandeliers Jingled The party honored Indi ana's newly elected Senator, Birch Bayh. The Tribune's account slated: "As it reached its peak late this afternoon, the huge crys tal chandeliers in the Senate's main reception room jingled to defiant cries of Where's Wayne Morse?' ... He re mained discreetly in his of fice ... A small band furn ished music and the seemingly inexhaustible revelers furn ished a clamor which could be heard in Statuary Hall 100 yards distance. 'On the Banks of the Wabash' was chanted time and again. . ; "Sen. Hartkc, chairman of t h e Democratic campaign committee, acted as master of ceremonies. He employed a basketball referee's whistle to command attention as he introduced cabinet members and Supreme Court justices . , . The supplies of bourbon, scotch and cocktails never ran out." The long history of unin hibited congressional imbib ing challenges the claim that the Hoosier whing-ding was the wettest on record. But it exemplifies perfectly what Wayne Morse wants the Sen- fore the rules fight is com- ate to outlaw. plcted. Morse's proposed new rule would not impar the practice of a senator keeping a bottle in a desk drawer or offering a iriena a drink in his office. But drinking parlies, which he regards as "a desecration of public buildings," would have to be held off Capitol Hill. The Oregon teetotaler is latest in a line of reformers who have insisted on changes in the social patterns of the lawmakers on Capitol Hill. Favorite Libation In the earlier days of the republic, drinking was so common in Congress thr; sen ators commonly carried alco holic drinks or wine to their desks. A favorite congression al libation of the early loth century was "switchell," made of ginger, molasses, a sprinkling of water from the celebrated Capitol spring, and heavily laced with rrm. When an anli-drinking res olution came up for Senate consideration in 1866, Sen. James A. McDougall of Cali fornia contended that alcohol ic beverages "elevate us, en able us to seize great facts, inspirations which once pos sessed are ours forever." He also declared defiantly: "I be lieve in women, wine, whisky and war." The ami-drinking resolution was defeated. In the Prohibition era, "one of the great scandals of the times was the boldness with which liquor was sold in the Capitol, writes Herbert As bury in "The Great Illusion." Liquor dealers kept "large stocks of booze in the base ment of the Capitol and in the Senate and House office buildings in order that con gressmen might; be given prompt and efficient service," he adds. Could Ban Parties Beacause Mor?e is no Prohi bitionist, he would probably agree with a Boston congress man who, in 1788, said: "If any man supposes Ilia' a mere law can turn the taste of a people from ardent spirits to malt liquors, he has a most romantic notion of legislative power." But a Senate rule could ban cocktail parties just as a 1902 bill outlawed open sales of liquor in the Capitol. Probably no senator today would be so bold as Sen. Mc Dougall in declaring his alle giance to "women, wine, whisky and war," but the huge crowd at the Hoosier shindig last week suggests that many still believe in the middle two. The big question is how many would be brave enough to stand up and be counted on the Morse anti - drinking rule - if the Oregon senator can maneuver the Senate into taking a stand on it be- the forthcoming Presidential election. One of the principal ques tions they are going to seek an answer for is whether Ken nedy can be beaten in 1964 and under what conditions. A lot depends on what the Republican party does in the way of organizing and revita lizing itself on a national scale. A lot depends, too, on how the affairs of the world and the nation turn in that period. Not until that homework is done, not until he satisfies himself that he has had a good fighting chance to defeat Ken nedy, will Rockefeller declare himself. Until that time, the watch word is "mobility.1 Nixon Criticised Rockefeller believes firmly that Richard Nixon could have beaten Kennedy in 1960 had not Nixon gone into the Chicago convention with the nomination all tied up in rib- oons. Nixon froze out all compe tition - Including Rockefel lers. The Governor made a show of being available at Chicago, but no one took him seriously and the interest around the nation was never aroused as was, for example, Kennedy's maneuvering with Lyndon Johnson. So Rocky - as he is now tagged - is definitely out to avoid making the same mis take with regard to his pos sible candidacy. He disagrees wllh those of his boosters who inveigh against the "Conservatives" in the Republican party building up Arizona's Sen. Barry Gold- water to "stop Rockefeller." He doesn't like to see the GOP run down the chances of its two new stars - Penn sylvania's William Scranton and Michigan's George Rom ney - on the grounds they haven't the time to build the image required for a Presi dential candidate. Rockefeller feels the Re publican party must have live ly competition. It must par ticularly have the give and take of debate on the key issues of the day. Kennedy Replies Throe weeks ago President Kennedy spoke before . the Kconomic Club in New York. A short time before that, Rockefeller had taken off on the Administration for its failure to "got the country go ing" as Kennedy had prom ised in his 1960 campaign. It was notable that Kenne dy, in his speech, turned hail of fire on what he said were the shortcomings in eco nomic accomplishment i n New York State. Aides report ed back to Rockefeller that the businessman audience found the situation of Ken nedy already campaigning against Rocky amusing enough that they broke into laughter. Rockefeller found it amu sing, too, aitnougn ne says some oi the figures Kennedy quoica, particularly on un employment in New York, were misleading. The distor tion, according to Rockefeller lies in the fact that the state has such efficient unemploy ment aid mat such statistics give an unrealistic picture beside states which lag on helping the unemployed. Une thing is certain - if Rockefeller docs take on Ken nedy, a prime, perhaps the prime, issue will be the na tion's rate of economic growth. It is in this area that Rockefeller feels the New frontier is most vulnerable. Has Candor Candor is one of Rocke fellers most refreshing characteristics. jn nis re-eiccuon for an other four years as Governor last September, he was up against a lack-luster Demo crat named Robert Morgcn- tnau, son of the former Secre tary of Treasury under FDR, Except for that name. Mor- ganthau had little to recom mend him as a political office- seeker. He had never held or tried for public office before, He was painfully shy in meet ing people. The Democratic party in New York was so divided that he was not even mentioned as a nominee until almost the last moment be fore the September conven- tion. Rockefeller beat- him by 500,000 votes. That is a solid margin in any politician's book but it was short of the victory margin which Rocke feller had taken incumbent Gov. Averell Harriman when Rocky first sought the Gov ernorship In 1958. Victory Predicted To make it really cmbaras- sing, Rockefeller's campaign manager had predicted on election eve that his man would win by a 1,000,000 vote plurality. Rockefeller has - to put it mildly - told the campaign manager he wished he hadn't made that prediction. Why did his margin de crease this time? Rockefeller has a number of ideas why it was so. But a primary one is that he did a number of things in his first term as Governor which were unpopular with voters. Chief among them was to raise the New York State income tax and bring under withholding DU0.000 persons who had not previously been subject to such taxation. The Governor has said that his move unquestionably left a "residue of ill will." But such is his '-Modus Pcrandi, that a few would doubt he would do the same thing all over again. Don't Start Boom At the present time, the Rockefeller camp is sending out word across the nation not to start any Rocky-for- President boomlels. Rockefeller takes the posi tion that no one is authorized to act at this time as his rep resentative or agent. When and if the occasion comes, he will let them know. Rockefeller believes t h e party has a lot of work ahead if it is to knock Kennedy out of the White House. He be lieves it can be done and in tends to help all he can. But one thing you can bet on: Nelson Rockefeller docs not intend to be the Alf Landon of 1964.
