Partisans See Johnson Win lltX1
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Can
Senate Democratic Leader Ly
don B. Johnson win enough na
tional convention support from the
big, pivotal slates to capture h
party's presidential nomination?
Democrats who want to noroin
ate him for the presidency do not
yet have a convincing answer to
this question.
However, Johnson partisans be
lieve he can manage a civil
rights bill this year so deftly
that he will win applause from
such politically important state:
as New York, Pennsylvania, III
nois and California. And they be
lieve he can do so without offend
ing the South, where he must
look for his basic strength.
America Rules
Turbits Roost
WASHINGTON (AP) - Ameri
cans apparently have forged
ahead of the British in a field
where they once ruled the roost-
in turbits.
A turbit is a pigeon. But it is
Dot an ordinary sort of pigeon.
The new variety is reared by
foster parents. Because the turbit
normally has a very short beak,
the young bird can't insert its
beak into that of its parent lo get
food as the ordinary pigeon baby
docs.
So breeders mate two turbits
and two long-beaked birds of an
other breed at the same time
When the eggs arc laid, the breed
ers switch them. Thus long
beaked parents bring up the tur
bits and short-beaked turbit par
ents bring up the long-beaked
youngsters.
The turbit, a hard bird lo breed
got started about two or three
centuries ago and was highly de
veloped in England in the last
century.
But according to the lop turbit
breeder in the country, in the last
50 or 60 years the Americans
have changed the bird, using dif
ferent standards from the Eng
lish. "We feel we've gone way ahead
of them," said Philip h. Roof of
nearby Hyattsvillc, Md.
Roof Is executive assistant to
the architect of the United Stales
Capitol, a building with a few
pigeon problems.
Roof isn't exactly enthusiastic
about the common old type of
pigeon. They're the same the
world over, he said, from the U.S
Capitol dome to the sun-baked vil
lage squares of India.
But show birds that's another
mailer.
Root lias been breeding furbils
for 20 years and has won the
grand national championship for
the last 10 or H years except one
year when he was a judge.
He raises about too young birds
a year and says he knows them
all individually, even from their
coos if he can't see them.
As a Texan, Johnson still wears
a southern lahel unacceptable to
many Democrats outside the
South. But he is usually rated as
a liberal among southerners and
as a middle-of-the-roader in tb
entire spectrum of the Democrat
ic Party.
Although he is not a declared
candidate, Democrats generally
expect him to make a serious bid
for the nomination. His congress
ional mentor and fellow Texan
Speaker Sam Rayburn, is in com
mand of a Johnson-for-president
campaign.
Unless his southern strength
slips away before convention time
Johnson can hope for a bloc ol
about 400 delegate votes, includ
ing support from border and west
ern mountain slates, uniy sen
John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.) ap
pears lo have hopes for a larger
bloc.
The majority vole needed lo
win the nomination win oe ibi.
