Photo by Hiroto Zakuji Kennedy Seen As Cinch To Win Hampshire Ballot CONCORD, N.H. (AP) Scn.i John F. Kennedy (D-Mass) is a sure winner in the Democratic side of the New Hampshire's first-in-lhe-nation presidential primary. Although the balloting won't take place unlit March 8, Ken nedy is already assured of 6' 2 of the state's 11 voles at his party's national convention. In the Republican primary, Vice President Richard M. Nixon is certain to win at least 5 of the state's 14 convention votes and is likely to win many more in the sctual balloting two weeks hence. The Kennedy and Nixon leads established even before the voles are counted are due to the com plicated mechanics of the early bird primary. Their backers out number supporters of other poten tial presidential candidates by tremendous margins on the Dem ocratic and Republican ballots. These margins are so great that even if every non-Kennedy and non-Nixon delegate candidate should win a seat and nobody expects that to happen Kennedy would still have 6'j votes and Nixon 5. The picture is also one-sided in the other section of the two-part primary, a separate "preference poll" in which the voters have a chance to register a direct choice of their favorite for their party's presidential nomination. Nixon has no opposition in the Republican popularity contest. Rumors of a widespread write-in drive for New York Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller are so far just thai rumors. Kennedy has only one opponent Jn the Democratic preference poll Chicago pen manufacturer Paul C. Fisher, who is waging an ag gressive campaign pegged to his proposal for elimination of income taxes for all Americans earning less than $10,000 a year. Results of the preference poll are not binding on the convention delegates, who are elected in an other section ot the ballot. Only ten of New Hampshire's gates with full votes, 10 at-largc and 2 from each district. There are 37 GOP candidates.

A Public Statement Mr. C. R. Williams has just returned from a tour of the South. The letters reproduced below were received and sent by Mr. Wil liams. First letter is from Mr. Kennedy. JOHN F. KENNEDY Massachusetts United Stales Senate Washington, D.C. January 27, 1960 Mr. C. R. Williams 2125 Kane Street Klamath Falls, Oregon Dear Mr. Williams: Thank you for your letter of recent dale in which you expressed your generous desire to assist me in my effort to win the Democratic Presidential nomination. 1 am taking the liberty of forwarding your name to: Mr. Stanley Weber. Executive Secretary Oregon Kennedy For President Committee 302 Senator Building 732 S. W. Third Ave., Portland. 4 He no doubt will be in touch with you shortly as to how you can mosl effectively help our cause in your area. I am deeply grateful for your interest and your kind offer. Your confidence and support will be a source of great encouragement to me in the days ahead. With every good wish, I am Sincerely, , (Signed! John F. Kennedy Miv Williams' reply: United States Senator Jack Kennedy Washington. D.C. Dear Mr. Kennedy: 1 received your letter while in California, informing me of Mr. Weber. Since then I have thought the matter over, knowing Mr. Weber as I- do that he is against organized labor. Mr. Weber is not liked by organized labor, and yet you have chosen him as your campaign manager for Oregon. My understanding is that he is a very good friend of Dave Beck, President of the Teamster's Union. I'm going to ask you a direct question: Dave Beck gels $50,000 per year as retirement pay, as does John L. Lewis .... have you or any other U.S. Senators advocated a bill in the U.S. Congress whereby Union Officers are to retire on SoO.000 per year? I, myself and the Organized Labor people I have talked to do not agree on this. Now as to this Bill of Rights. What have you got for the 3'j million people in Ihc Southern Slates? You understand, Mr. Senator, that those people in the South have been deprived of a living wage and education that every American should have. I do not know exactly what your platform is pertaining to this Issue. II is definite that if you want these votes you must do something for these people. Not just a promise these people have families to care for and they can not do it under present day conditions. I have been asked to tour the South in your behalf I've also been asked by the Republican Party. I'm not campaigning for anyone until a bill is put before Congress making it a death penalty for any one charged and convicted of lynching a Negro or a White man. Also Life Penalty for the crime of Rape should warrant a death penalty. I very much approve of some of the laws you have presented in our Congress and I know that you're a favorite among the Democrats, but I want you to understand, I'm neither Democrat or Republican. I'm for the man who will do the most for the work ing man. I will not campaign for anyone who will violate American rights. I have all the respect in the world for you and your great friend, Gov. Brown of California. I must know in thirty days what your platform is, and what your plan is for the Bill of Rights and Social Security Benefits. I received a letter from Wayne Morse who Oregon feels is a likeable candidate for President, but a very disliked man in Organized Labor. You cannot expoct to see 7'i million votes from Organized Labor from just a promise. I realize you and Mr. Morse have had some heated discussions about this labor bill, and I hardly think labor approves of Morse's attitude. I'm not a politician, but I've always been in sympathy for the man making small wages. This money that is sent out for relief in Europe should be used for better education and not for a donation to another nation. We of Organized Labor are going to fight anyone who docs not ask for the repeal of the Taft-Hartley law. At this time I can't see that you have committed yourself in such issues, whereas Nixon has regarding the Bill of Rights. Before I will campaign for anyone 1 know it must benefit the American people, for I'm an American. You ask for my opinion. Don't let me go over to Nixon's side. Sincerely, (Signed) C. R.
