0 tt o Sens; Hubert, John Curry Wisconsin Voter MADISON, Wis. (API Senators Hubert H. Humphrey and John F Kennedy are currying the Wiscon sin voter today like a prize Hoi- Item heifer They arc driving tor support in the state s presidential primary Aivil 5. They mush through the slush on Main street, shaking hands They go out at dawn to Iho fac tory gate. They call press con ferences at the drop of a develop rrient. Their urgent voices vibrate over Tty and radio, pursuing peo ple across snowy fields and silent CreMs. They've even' got their wives out with curry combs and myrrh and incense. But they don't st'em to see the Coming election in the same light. Humphrey o( .Minnesota lends to down-grado the importance of it. He says (he April 5 vole is Just another primary. Kennedy, of Massachusetts, on the other hand, says "This is it." 6r he may use Ihe terms, "make-bV-break," and "the signilicant primary, in his bid for the Democratic presidential nomina tion. ; Why this difference of view? ' H may be because Kennedy and his backers are confident of vic tory. Politicians seldom say "this is it" if they have much doubt I shout an election result. Humphrey's aides, by contrast. tend to be cautious. They say he has "a good chance," that he is "coming up fast now," but is probably still behind Kennedy at this stage of the campaign. So one seeks to enhance the im portance of Wisconsin, on the na tional Democratic presidential picture. The other says he will go on battling for the nomination no matter what happens April 5. The opinion that Kennedy is well in front, at this point, is widely held among political ob servers in Wisconsin Republi cans as well as Democrats, in dependents' and those who are (till yearning and hoping to be able to vote for Adlai E. Steven ton. One highly placed Democrat, who asked not to be identified, said he expect Kennedy to sweep the boards, winning all 60 delegates with their 30 convention votes. The majority of analysts, how ever, believe Kennedy will take seven districts and all the at-large delegates. This would give him 22 '4 of Wisconsin's total delegate vote. Te allocation of delegates and Votes in Wisconsin is this: There are 10 congressional dis tricts, each with five delegates to be elected. Each delegate has one-half vote. Thus the district delegates cast 25 voles. In addition, there are 10 at large delegates, who will cast five convention votes. These 10 dele gates will go to the candidate who gets the largest statewide total, in other words the sum total of the votes cast in the 10 districts. The two Wisconsin members of the Democratic National Commit tee also wiTI have one-half vote each at the convention, giving the Wisconsin delegation a total of 31 votes. '. Humphrey's greatest strength appears to lie in the 9th and 10th districts. These border his home state of Minnesota, lie has visited (hem often. He is sometimes known there as "Wisconsin's third senator." The interests of the farmers on both sides of the state lines art Klmilar. Humphrey has been speaking out for the Jsrmers much longer than Kennedy. O The Minnesota senator also ap pears to have strong support in the Second Congressional District, which embraces La Crosse in western Wisconsin and has a sub stantial labor vote. The question of how thmass of farmers and factory workers will vote is pure political quick silver. You can't pick it up now. AFL-CIO leaders in Milwaukee formed a Humphrey-for-President Club weeks ago. But in the Kennedy headquart ers, they will show you petitions for Kennedy bearing thousands of signatures from Local 72, United Automobile Workers. As for the farmers Jfiie farm vote is timated at between 15 and 18 percent of the total vote. Wilbur Renk, of Sun Prairie, cattle fattener and member of the University of Wisconsin Board of Regents, said "the Farmers Union seems pretty strong for Humphre.O He has come up with plans." Al Wayne Legler, a dairy farmer, said "Humphrey's had more agricultural experience than Kennedy." But he added, "the older farmers, those who are already established, aren't exact ly unhappy. It's the younger ones who are just getting started who are looking for someone with a plan." I Both Humphrey and Kennedy are -drawing big crowds some times in the same places. Both Newspaper SPOT ADS ore inexpensive repeated daily $1.16 have boon successful in raislnc money. Kennedy was a patrol torpedo boat commander in the Pacific war and his aides have sold hundreds of pins shaped like P. T. boats. jiumpnrey s lieutenants arc mailing close to a million five piece letters asking for donation. Joseph Checota, in the senator's Madison ollicc, said this brought in over $1,000 "in ones and two, mainly," in the first three days after they were mailed. In one respect volunteers Kennedy seems to be pulling more strongly than Humphrey. Every night, in his Milwaukee headquarters, mom than 50 peo ple, mostly young men and women, are at work. The Madi son office swarms with others. Said Pat Lucky, state Demo cratic chairman, "there are vol unteers working for Kennedy in Madison I've never seen before in any political campaign." Fidel Castro Huge Force HAVANA (AP)-Fidel Castro is building up a powerful armed force in a nation confronted with economic headaches and a short age of foreign currency. The revolutionary regime has launched a fund-raising campaign for arms, trumpeting that they are needed for defense against foreign aggrestion. But some Cubans believe Cas tro, mindful of the island repub lic's turbulent history, is taking precautions against potential ene mies at home. "If Castro felt certain of his hold on the people, he wouldn't be calling for arms " these Cu bans say. "But he knows from ex perience that the same crowd who cheers him today will turn upon him as they did on other popular Cuban leaders when the situation gets difficult. "He needs arms to supply not only the regular army but the ci vilian militia as well. If trouble comes, he'll have ready the larg est armed force Cuba has ever seen." The government has used the explosion of, the French freighter La coubre-'While delivering mu nitions in Havana harbor to spur a funds-for-arm.1 campaign that began more than six months be fore. By 'Official estimate, some two million pesos (equal to dollars in Cuba but worth much less on the world market) were raised before the La Coubre tragedy which took between 80 and 100 lives. v The Castro government has of ficially identified the United States as the chief aggressor against Cuba. The pro-Castro ra dio and press whipped up antago nism against the United States with pleas for more defense con tributions. Today in Havana's streets, people' sound more con cerned with who blew up the arms than what the arms were for. Ask a Cuban today if he actual ly believes the United States would invade Cuba and the answer is likely to be an unqualified "yes." Some anti-Castro Cubans won der out loud why American Marines don't come here to "straighten things out." NICE TRY ROCKINGHAM, N.C.
