PAGE TWO Presidential Seen Between Dick, John WASHINGTON (AP)-Tlie pos f-ibility developed today that Vice President Richard M. Nixon and Sen. John F. Kennedy D-Mass may run a presidential handicap race In New Hampshire. Associates said today Nixon is putting off for the time being any decision io permit his name to go on that state's March 8 pref erential primary ballot. New York Gov. Nelson A Rockefeller's withdrawal from cintcntion seems to have left Nix on without prospective primary opponents and with a clear field for the l'J60 GOP presidential nom lnalion. But some of the vice president's advisers are studying the possi bility of entering his name in New Hampshire to give firassroot Republicans an opportunity to en dorse in advance what appears to be his inevitable choice as their nominee. Such a move could be calcu lated to offset Democratic conten tions that GOP "bosses" turned Rockefeller down in favor of Nixon without consulting the withes of the party's rank and file. Nixon got a whopping write-in vote in New Hampshire in W56 when unsuccessful efforts were being made to dump him from second place on the ticket headed by President Eisenhower. With the slate's GOP organiza tion solidly behind him, Nixon could be expected to roll up an Impressive total, even though he had no opponent to spice voter interest. Kennedy, reported on the verge of plunging publicly into the con test for the Democratic prcsiden- tial nomination, could find him self In the same position on his party s ballot. Kennedy intends to get Into ev ery possible primary. Thus far his only prospective opponent In New It's Fun To Wash At Merit's COIN-0-MATIC OPE 4jv J I ij V... ... . .- Lotl of Wathen!

Humphrey s Irlends would much prefer to take on Kennedy in the April 5 primary in Wisconsin They view Kennedy's New Eng land strength with misgivings and feel .they perhaps ought to save their ammunition for the Midwest. Nixon and Kennedy thus could wind up running on separate tick cts in a contest that would show their relative popularity with the voters. New Hampshire is considered a Republican state and Nixon could be expected to top Kennedy s to tal. But any showing such as that made by the Democratic opponent of GOP Gov. Wesley Powell in 11)58 would boost the senator's slock. Powell got 106,790 votes, Democrat Bernard L. Boutin D9.055. Even if his name is put on the ballot, Nixon has indicated he is not going to engage in any in tensive campaigning before the July GOP convention In Chicago. It is Nixon's decision that the best politics for him to play in the next six months is be an alert and helpful vice president striving to put Eisenhower's program across in Congress and to support his chief's crusade for world peace. Republican Senate Leader Ev erett M. Dlrksen of Illinois said ho expects N'xnn. to play a great er part in helping shape the ad ministration's program than he would if Rockefeller had become a rival. Rockefeller about closed out speculation that he might accept second place on a Nixon ticket with a statement Monday night that his position was "final and irrevocable" when he said Satur day he wouldn't take it. Sen. Alexander Wiley (R-Wis) foresaw the possibility of a con vention draft of Rockefeller. But most other Republicans thought the New York governor would want to stay in his present job if he has future political ambi tions. Democrats continued their bar rage against Nixon. Most of them adopted the line that Nixon was an "Old Guard" choice who would hr.ve little appeal to independent voters and liberal Republicans. Humphrey r.aid, among other things, that as a full-blown Re publican with none of Rockefel ler's possible reservations about the administration's policies, Nix- nn will be easier to beat than the New York governor. Rep. Chester Bowles (D-Conn) said Rockefeller's withdrawal was discouraging. Hidekl Tojo. wartime premier of Japan, stood trial !n 1948, was found guilty and was hanged on December 23.

Home Shelter Plans to stimulate construction of shelters from atomic fallout in American homes are in progress, backed jointly by the Federal Hous ing Administration and the Nation al Office of Civil Defense and Mo bilization. That word was announced by Joe Bark Beetle Eating Way To Extinction SPOKANE (AP) Because the destructive bark beetle prefers downed trees to standing timber he's eating his way to extinction. A U. S. Forest Service entomol ogist explained how the system works at the Northwest Scientific Assn. convention here Monday. Philip C. Johnson said the beetles, which have done consider able damage to Northwest timber, prefer freshly felled trees. Under modern forest practices, however, the windfalls or freshly cut trees usually are removed quickly. Hun gry beetles turn to standing tim ber for meals and homes. Recently, Johnson said foresters have been setting up trap trees- felled timber. The timber is left long enough for the beetles to set up housekeeping and raise pro geny, then either sprayed or hauled out of the forest. Other speakers at the opening of the two-day convention includ ed Halph H. Imlcr of the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Port land, and Edwin C. Clark of the University of Idaho. Imlcr said fish and wildlife sup porters have much In common with proponents of good watershed management since soil conserva tion benefits fish and game. Clark told the 200 delegates a new pest, called the Engelmann spruce weevil, has been discov ered that attacks second growth spruce. He said tree plantations now growing young trees provide ideal conditions for the post. yiiiiiiiitiiiinrnmriirriititnmtmttn Giv Yourself A Real Treat TRY OUR BUFFET LUNCH 8CRVKD FROM NOON TI7.L I PONDEROSA ROOM WII.I.ARD HOTEL ajtmmttintttmittttttmittittutJttu1 AUTO riSt TRUCK - Farmers Insurance Group ' I i INSURANCE AGENCY 119 So. 6th St. TU 2-4641 KLAMATH FALLS OREGON LLOYD MUOMI RLI TLUtOO 4-3-4G4 Pre-lnventory CLEARANCE!

Negro Groups Begin Drive ATLANTA (AP) - Two Negro organizations are starting a drive to register an additional 1.100.000 southern Negro voters in time for participation in the 1960 presiden tial election. Leaders of the National Assn for the Advancement of Colored People and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference worked out details Monday at a meeting at tended by 23 representatives of the two groups. Hoy Wilkins of New York, ex ecutive secretary of the NAACP, said an intensive campaign would be carried out block by block with the help of state and local organ izations and civic groups. He said the NAACP had less than $100,000 to spend on the pro gram and that most of the work would be done by volunteers. The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., of Montgomery, Ala., presi dent of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, said the campaign would be non - partisan but that the groups were "urging backing of candidates who have a record of supporting civil rights." Wilkins and King said the goal of their organizations was to reg ister 2,500,000 Negroes in the South (or the 11160 presidential election. Wilkins said there now , are about 1,400,000 registered Negro voters In the area. QENERAL LIABILITY LIFE BOB JONCS Rll TU.CDO 2-0)73 Next to Oregon Food 14' rTwaAwr Dec. '29, 'i ' ii Accused THief MITO, Japan fl'PJ) Twelve years ago in 1947, Shozo Ueno, 10, was ordered to appear before Power Groups To Convene In Vancouver SEATTLE (AP) - Washington and Oregon public power groups will meet at Vancouver, Wash., Jan. 6 to decide what steps to take in light of a recent Bonne ville Power Administration study of a California power tie-line. The meeting was announced Monday by Ken Billington, execu tive secretary of the Washington Public Utility Districts Assn. and a member of a regional subcom mittee to review the BPA tie-line study. Most public power groups have favored the plan to sell surplus power to California. It was con sidered one way to reduce the annual BPA deficit and possibly avoid rate increases to Pacific Northwest power users. In general, PUDs and cities with municipal power systems have supported a publicly-owned tie-line between the BPA's system and public systems in California. The BPA report, however, said a tie-in with the privately-owned Pacific Gas & Electric Co. in the south would be more economical and better than the proposed con nection with the Bureau of Rec lamation's Central Valley Project. Sociologist Gives Views On Bosses By ALTON BLAKESLEE Associated Press Science Writer CHICAGO (AP) Rulers and bosses are generally smarter but more mentally deranged than other people, a sociologist said to day. The moral behavior of ruling groups tends to be more criminal and sub normal, added Prof. Wal ler A. Lunden of Iowa State Uni versity, Ames, Iowa. "Ruling groups contain a larger proportion of the extreme mental types of the gifted and the mental ly sick than the rank and file of the ruled population," he told the American Assn. for the Advance ment of Science. The greater the power of the rulers, political leaders and big executives, the more corrupt and criminal they tend to be, Prof. Lunden said. But as their power becomes limited, "criminality of rulers and executives tends to decrease qual itatively and quantitatively. When the power of the ruling bodies is greatly limited, their criminality may become equal to or fall below that of the ruled populations." "Not all leaders tend to show higher rates of criminality, but a great majority of them do," he continued. "Present day society tends to promote and to advance to high positions certain types of men." Prof. Lunden listed three such types: "The inadequate psychopath, placid and emotionally blunt per son, often taken for a profound man. "The aggressive obsessive-compulsive boss, conceited, ambitious, domineering and intolerant. "The ethically aberrant per sonality endowed with acute In telligence, but morally wily and cynical." Prof. Lunden said these view points are borne out by all the evidence concerning ruling groups in Europe, Asia, North and South America. But he holds out hope for change. Now, he said, we are passing through the end of a 600-year period of culture in which ad vanced technology has produced power, violence and crime in high places. "Very gradually the West is calling and hoping for new types of leaders and rulers who combine a high moral sense with sound scientific knowledge." If such leaders don't arise, "So ciety is due for a very stormy period in the years ahead. Ueralii anbeUr Klamatn Talis.

Mail Equality Requested By Hawaiians WASHINGTON (UPI) - All Hawaii wants from France is "liberte, egalite, fraternite" and the same air mail postal rate enjoyed by the other 49 states of the union. This is the nub of a minor con tretemps which has cropped up between the youngest state of the union and the oldest ally of the United States. plficials here, including Sen. Hiram Fong (R-Hawaii), are con fident an amicable settlement is in the offing, possibly by N e w Year's Day. The postal discrepancy came to light recently when Hawaiians protested that French authorities were charging nearly twice as much to send an air mail letter from Paris to Honolulu as to Al aska and the continental United SHates. French officials were refusing, from a postage stamp standpoint, to admit Hawaii to the Union. They classified the islands as part of the remote Pacific postal zone and scratched out the nota tion "U.S.A." on Hawaii-bound mail. For some Hawaiians who jubi lantly celebrated statehood last Aug. 21 this was a blow to their pride, let alone their pocketbooks. Both the French Ministry of Communications and Ministry of Foreign Affairs are studying the matter. And the best guess is that in a matter of days, the State of Hawaii and the Republic of France will be pen pals again. Frozen Bodies Of Swiss Found ORGEVAUX -SUR -MONTRE-UX, Switzerland (UPI) - The frozen bodies of three members of a Swiss family who vanished on a week end outing were found Monday within yards of their cha let, police reported. Police identified the victims as Alfred Mertz, 39, his wife and small daughter. They said the party apparently became lost in a heavy fog. The bodies of Mrs. Mertz and her daughter were found by a skier about 50 yards from the chalet. Mertz' body was about 200 yards away. In the opera, "The Girl of the Golden West," by Puccini, the heroine plays a game of poker for the life of her lover.
