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

'Cap Race
Hampshire seems to be Sen. Hu
bert H, Humphrey (D-Minn).
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.

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.

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

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.

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.
