Nixon Proposes Issue of Economics For Southern Votes

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. He

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. It left out 832,000
"short-term" draftees and en
listees who have not yet com
pleted two years of service.

came to a ledge that was fair

I flew here for more re

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

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.
That, however, will be no
novelty. It always did.

Some Republicans believe
the presidency can be won by
abandoning all hope of North

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.
