conference which wound up its
business here yesterday. But
the impact of New York Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller on his
party colleagues was obviously
less favorable than Mr.. Nixon's
friends had feared 1t would be.
Gov. Rockefeller adged some
what closer to contesting for
the 1860 @. o. P. nomination
in public and private utter
ancees here. At times he had
the appearance of a man who
is being convinced he ought to
make a try for it. At others he
was as hesitant as he has
seemed to be for months.
= Waiting TO Be Convinced
The word now is that Gov.
Rockefeller will decide about
November whether he ought
to take on Mr.. Nixon. And he
will do that only If he is con-
WINGED that the Vice President
seems likely to be defeated by
a Democrat and that he. Mr..
Rockefeller, has a better
chance to keep the White
House in Republican hands.
Gov. Rockefeller impressed
his fellow chief executives as
a forceful, alert man, willing
to take on any corners who
challenge his political philos-
ophy.
He did this with Illinois Gov.
william @. stratton. another
Republican, in q sharp verbal
exchange over Federal intrusion

authority. There was no umpire
available to Judge who won the
argument. But 1t seemed safe
TO say that II Gov. Rockefeller
should become q candidate fol
the presidential nomination, his
brush with Gov. Stratton die
not improve his chances Of get
ting the support Of the power
full Illinois delegation.
Some Republican Governors
seemed to feel. a bit resentfully
that Gov. Rockefeller was pre-
occupied with weighty issues
and had little time to frater-
nize with them. His admitted
charm, however, was reflected
In favorable comment from
others.
Outspoken Gov. Harold w
Handley Of Indiana commended
that Mr.. Nixon had held his
ground and possibly had i'm.
proved his prospects somewhat
although the Vice President
had no staff representative al
the conference. But Mr.
Handley and one or two Other
Republican Governors openly
plugged Mr.. Nixon at every
chance.
The conference produced lit
tie enlightment on the position
of Democratic presidential
hopefuls.

chusetts, but seemed unable 10
find any responsive echoes.
Their theme was that Sena-
tor Kennedy has strong support
in all sections Of the Nation.
There seemed little argument
with that. but 1t also was APP
parent that not many Of the
Democratic Governors want to
wet their political feet In the
Kennedy pool yet.
Brown Prompts Speculation
Gov. Edmund @. (Pat)
Brown, whose hefty California
delegation is a prize target,
displayed surprising signs that
he may be considering himself
as something Of q major can

party's ticket.

about that when Western

cation from their group had

the Soviet Union.
Gov. Ernest F. Hollings Of

some 40 persons to be recog-

Court upheld a lower court de-
cision selling Fairfax County's
So-called Freehill amendment.
The Freehill amendment
limited lot sizes in most Of the
western two-thirds OF the
county to a minimum OF two
acres. The object of the two
acre restriction was to confine
suburban development to the
eastern third of the county,
where it would be easier and
cheaper for the county to SLIP
ply public services.
Another purpose of the Free
hill amendment was to protect
the Potomac River watershed
from pollution above the Dis
trict'S water supply intake.
Before adoption of the Free
hill amendment, the largest lot
size requirement was a half
acre. The property owners who
are now challenging the large
lot sizes are seeking to force
the county to 60 back to the
half-acre maximum.
Monday night the supervisors
adopted a temporary coming
ordinance reimposing a two
acre restriction in part of the
western section of the county
and a one-acre restriction in
the remainder Of that area.
This is the action the landown-
ers are challenging.
The latest move, the perman.
ent ordinance, was proposed by
supervisor A. Claiborne Leigh.
Mr.. Leigh'S motion passed by
a 4 to 3 vote. A substitute mo-
ton by supervisor Thomas
Gray for a one-acre minimum
in the area, with a two-acre
minimum along the palisades,
failed by a 4 to 3 vote.
The board also set 7 nm
May 4 for a public hearing on
the proposed $34 million budget
for 1959-60. The supervisors
indicated they will cut the
budget sharply after the public
hearing. The budget as now
proposed would require a prop
erty tax rate of $40 per 500
evaluation. compared to the
present $3.50 rate.
