Murrow is shown as he appeared before tho Senate Foreign Relation! Committee in support of the Ad ministration's proposed establishment of a Foreign Service academy. (UPI) By LYLE C. WILSON Washington - OIPB - Richard M. Nixon believes the Re publican Party should bid for Southern votes on the issue of economic conservatism and not on the question of civil rights. Nixon met with old friends in Washington recently on his way from New York to Mi ami, Fla. He told newsmen his role in the 1964 presiden tial campaign would be to develop the Republican Party position. He believes he can make the case against Presi dent Kennedy better than any candidate could do it The Republican Party urg ently needs some sound ad vice on how to win white voters in the so-called solid South. It can be said fairly that the Northern Negro vote licked Nixon in his 1960 presl denlial contest with John F Kennedy. Ohio state Republi can chairman Ray Bliss re ported aome, months ago to the Republican National com mittee that Nixon would have been elected if the Republi cans had made a respectable showing in four cities: Chi cago, Detroit, Philadelphia and St. Louis. Kennedy majorities in those cities more than offset Nixon majorities elsewhere in Illi nois, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Missouri. A national com mittee analysis of the 1960 vote showed that in three of those four cities, Chicago, De troit and Philadelphia, Nixon got only about 18 per cent of the Negro vote. The hard nosed political question now challenging the Republican Party is this: Shall Republicans in 1004 go after the white Southern vote or the Negro vote in the great i Nixon is against that.

We sort of swooped over a v ;rm HP' ajBfjH Military Pay Bill Clears Committee Washington-OlrT-Thp House Armed Services Committee has approved a pay Increase for 1.8 million servicemen. But, under pressure from budget-cutters, the committee gave no raise to servicemen who have served lest than two years. Members agreed by a 31-1 vote on a $1.1 billion pay in crease to help Induce service men to stay in uniform. This was $46 million below the ad ministration's request and $325 million under an earlier recommendation by an armed services subcommittee. In addition to servicemen on active duty, the bill would raise the pay of 900,000 mem bers of reserve units on drill pay status.

I flew here for more re search on a book 1 am plan ning called "Don't Let Vaca lions Spoil Your Fun." This Is an ideal place for the patter on mountain resorts. The mere tight of those Jagged peaks flashing by the airplane window nut me In the mood for vlimbina. The first thing I did was climb a bar. stool for an infusion of nerve tonic. Then, it belna si- esta time, I climbed into bed for a nap. Such a regimen probably is too strenuous for the average tourist, but I wanted to get into condition for the return flight. Taking off from Merlda should be relatively simple. In a pinch, they can just roll the plane to the edge of the preci pice and give it a shove. My advice to parsons planning a trip to the moun tains Ihit summer it to ig nore all of the warnings they hear about the air be ing thin at high altitudtt. Most people will not be bothered by the lack of oxy gen, except when they try to breathe. The same Is true of the tem perature. Persons who are im mune to Irostbite won't mind It at all. I went up past 15,000 feet with hardly any difficulty. My only trouble came at a lower altitude where I experienced a softening of the brain. This was what caused me to go up past 15,000 feet. What Is more, I did it the hard way. I rode up in a cable car. The cars glide along on cables suspended hundreds of feet above the ground. On the mountainside below I could sec Andean hillbillies tending their livestock. But it was no place for chickens. When I gel back home to Washington, even Capitol Hill will probably make mc dizzy.

(UPI) ' j I k Some Republicans believe the presidency can be won by abandoning all hope of North ern Negroes returning to the Republican Party. The strate gy then would be to dc-cmpha-size civil rights as a Republi can Party policy and to ap peal to Southern whites on that basis. should maintain the civil rights position assumed in the 1960 campaign. The 1960 Re publican presidential plat form went almost as far as the Democratic platform on civil rights. This strategy did not work in 1960. Nixon wants to try it again, but with a difference. He told newsmen here that he could not believe that civil rights would be the prime 1964 political issue in the South. He said the prime is sue for white Southerners would be economic. Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller could carry the South in 1964, Nixon believes, if the gover nor could persuade Southern voters that he is an economic conservative and that Presi-,out efforts in behalf of civil dent Kennedy is an economic I rights radical. A group of Republican sen- Rockefeller apparently goes along part way with that strategy. He has sought to make a major issue of his commitment to such economic conservatism as budget bal ancing, pay-as-you-go. B u t Rockefeller is as deep as are the Kennedy brothers in all- ators last month offered an omnibus civil rights bill going vastly beyond anything pro posed by the Kennedy Ad ministration. New York's two Republican senators were among the sponsors, an indi cation of New York thinking on civil rights.
