Nixon is a candidate for the 1964 Republi can presidential nomination. Nixon, who lost a close race to John F. Kennedy in 1960, said in Hershey, Pa Saturday that he could not conceive of himself as the GOP nominee again next year. But the too contenders for the nepuniican nomination said they believed Nixon was a can didate, and political observers here refused to rule the former vice president out of the picture. The discussion of Nixon's fu ture shared top billing over the weekend with a new exchange between Gov. Nelson A. Rocke feller of New York and Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona. both unannounced candidates for the Republican nomination. Rockefeller, in a speech to the Western Republican Confer ence at Eugene. Ore., chal lenged Goldwater to a scries of debates to sharpen interest in tne Hepublican party and what it stands for." Nothing To Be Gained Goldwater, replying at a news conference at Eugene a few hours later, said that he saw "absolutely nothing to be gained by the proposal." He said such debates might "tend to add to what little division there is in the Republican party." Regardless of their differ ences about a debate, Rockefel ler and Goldwater agreed in their belief that Nixon still re mains very much in the presi dential picture. Rockefeller said, "I think he's a candidate. He has been mak ing consistent comments on in ternational affairs and taking a greater part in national and party affairs. He sounds like a candidate." Goldwater said he had thought all along that Nixon was in the running for the GOP nomination. Goldwater raid that "any man who lost the presi dency by a fraction of a per centage point" should be con sidered a possible contender. Political observers here lelt that it still was too early to as sess Nixon's impact on the 1964 presidential race. They said it would depend on whether the Goldwater boom continues. May Turn To Nixim If a deadlock should develop at the GOP convention and Goldwater is unable to muster enough votes to get the nomina tion, these observers said, the delegates might well turn to Nixon again. Nixon's disavowal of cny presidential intentions next year was supported by at least two major party figures. Former Vrvsid-nt Uwlght D. Eisenhower is understood to feel that Ni.oi will net lie a candidate agii'i, although his former running mate will main tain an active voice ,n pai'iy af fairs. GOP National Chairman Wil liam E, Miller said in Eugene that he thought Nixon "says what he means and meaiii what he savs and is nut candi date."" "As I travel armiiid the na tion I find no .emulance ot ef fort for Dick Nixon no one is committed to him, no one is getting delegates (or him and no one is raising a single dol lar for him," Miller added. Nixon, attending a birthday party for Eisenhower in Her shey. said that if his name acre offered in any stale primaiy re quiring the consent ot the can didate, he would not give it.

Reynold Tobacco Co. and the Liggett St Myers Tobacco Co. after the death of her husband in 1955.
