THE GREAT
GAME OF
POLITICS

"PhOnuS BOlOgnuS"

While there was a considerable
and NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of
presidential politics in the session
of Congress just ended, it is per-
fectly clear that in the next ses-
sion, which will convene in January
just four months off-this satu-
ration will be greatly intensified.
Hardly anyone in either party ex-
poets anything else, though it still
will be more than two years before
candidates for President and Vice
President can be nominated.

Also, it is almost sure to show
what the politicians call trend"
A second reason is that if the Re
publicans regain control it will
help make their record and redeem
them from the charge Of futility.
On the other hand, if the Demo-
Gratis hold or increase their House
and Senate majorities, it will en-
able them to Illustrate the Admin
istlation and promote their pros
poets two years hence. The third
characterization" reason naturally
is the presence in the Senate of
more presidential aspirants than
have been seen in a long time.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1957-09-12

To mention a few, there are Vice
President Nixon and Senator
Knowland, who is retiring from the
Senate to run for Governor of
California as mis- first step toward
the presidency on the Republi-
can side. Among the Democrats
there are Senator Kennedy, of,
Massachusetts,; Senator Johnson,
of Texas, and others. There also
are, as usual, several Democratic
governors who, more or less secret
ly, cherish presidential aspirations.
All of these in the next session
will be keenly alive to the trend"
and naturally eager to take ad-
vantage of tiff it is in their di-
rection.

Editorial
GOOD SUGGESTION, SENATOR
SENATOR MERWINs suggestion for right

SENATOR MERWINS suggestion for ~right-hand driv-
ing III these Islands is an excellent one. AL the reasons for
the retaining of the old system are long dead and gone. n
fact, there is no real reason why just two islands should insist
upon retention of a system which has neither rhyme nor
reason and which is so completely out of tune with every
other spot under the American Flag.
AMERICA IS H greatest manufacturer and user
of automobiles As perhaps the most important segment OF
American industry, much is geared to the automobile, in
Guiding roads and highways, safety devices, signalling, and
countless others. The right-hand drive is by no means ac-
cidentaI. 1t is much safer for a driver, passing another vehicle
at high speed, to be seated on the side of his car which per-
mits for THE greatest convenience and safety.
THE QUESTION has been debated here many times
and those who favor retention of the old system come down
to final argument that we should leave well enough alone.
1t is easier to just keep on going the way we have rather
than to muster up the energy for the necessary, and highly
desirable change.
WITH NOR AND more automobile on our roads
and streets, and with those automobiles being shipped in
from American factories the necessity grows even greater for
the change suggested by Senator Merwin.
IT Is HOPED that the Senator will work for his own
suggestion, and will try to bring this matter to a head. Per-
haps since it is his suggestion the necessary effort will follow.
THE GOOD Senator may not appreciate it, but we
urge support for his suggestion, and will ourselves work to
help bring it about.

EDITORIAL

reprinted from the st. Tho
mas Home Journal of Jan. 9th
The news that the represen
tative of the National Park
Service in st Croix attempt
ed to restrict the people Of
that island in the use of the
Christiansted Wharf during
the recent Christmas Festival
celebrations is disturbing.
When negotiations were
made some years ago for de-
claring the Christiansted
wharf area as a national his
toric site and transferring it
to the National Park Service
for custody and development,
tt was emphasized time, and
again that the people of St.
would not be placed in
any less favorable position
than they occupied; that all
the privileges and rights then
endured would be protected.
We are sure that the members
of the St. Croix legislature
never would have approved
the transaction if they could
foresee that some Official could
bar the people from the en-
joyment of their own park.
Perhaps, in the light of the
St. Croix experience, it is a
good thing that the st. Tho
mas-St. John Council never
approved the proposal to de-
clare a wide area embracing
the Back Street, Main St. and
waterfront a historic site and
to invite the Park Service to
come in, and later to take over.

ing public area. We too would

President Backs Forbes
In New Jersey Election

tons in Jersey City got together
under the leadership Of State
Senator James r. Murray jr.
to oppose the Kenny organiza-
ton in q local Jersey City cleo
ton, and defeated feur Of the
five Kenny candidates for the
city commission. which picks
the mayor.
Both the Kenny and Murray
factions are on record as sup
porting Gov. Meyner, but there
also is on the ballot for next
Tuesdays election a Kenny
slate of candidates for various
county Offices. The Murray
group has withdrawn its slate
OF county candidates, but they
say they will not support the
Kenny candidates.
This means that any Of the
Murray voters who want to
support Gov. Meyner will have
to split their ticket. or in the
case Of voting machines. go to
q different row Of levers after
they vote for Governor. There
is considerable doubt and specu-
lation as to what effect this
will have.
Republicans Hold Back
Those in a position to know
say the Republican campaign
managers have had a hard time
getting campaign contributions
from regular Republican con-
tributors, or in the usual
amounts. This presumably is
one reflection of the success
Gov. Meyner has had in making
friends among Republicans,
One manifestation of this
technique is the absence Of any
reference to the Democratic
Party on some Of the Meyner
campaign billboards.
Forbes managers are hoping
the admiration some Republi-
can business men have shown
! for Gov. Meyner will be cooled
by the Governors statement to
a group Of workers Monday
that he would not be averse to
making unemployment insur-
ance benefits available to strik-
ers after a reasonable waiting
period. The Governor suggested
to the workers who raised the
question that six to eight weeks
would be a reasonable waiting
period.

Major themes OF the NATO
chiefs-of- government meeting
are expected TO follow closely
those Of the Eisenhower-Mac-

/. The need for broader shar-
ing Of scientific knowledge.
2. The need to avoid costly
duplication In development Of

3. The need to develop q
much larger free-world pool Of

ment.
4. The desirability Of con-
firming NATO determination "a

National Effect Seen
Democrats are saying that II

this effort, the Republicans will
have contributed TO building
him up as a potential aspirant
for the Democratic presidential
nomination in 1860.
But an outsider who spends
q few days in the State gets
the impression that, while some
political analysts are reading
all sorts Of national implica-
tons into this gubernatorial
race, the voters Of New Jersey
are not conscious OF the fact
that they are deciding any
great national issue.
II they are for Gov. Meyner.
1t is because they have been
impressed by his slogan that
one good term deserves an
other. Republican OBJECTIONS
generally are attributed to a
feeling that Gov. Meyner has
not rocked the boat. 1t is Gus
tomary here to compare him
with Senator Frank Lausche.
