Rockefeller Bid
Tied 70 HEALTH
OF President
BY ISABELLE SHELTON
star stan Writer

The only reason Gov. Nelson
A. Rockefeller Of New York is
not now an announced candi-
date for President is that Pres
ident Eisenhower might die
before next year. putting Vice
President Nixon in the White
House." Carl Shipley. District f
@. o. P. chairman said today. ?
THAT would lock up the ball
game" for Mr.. Nixon, and
assure him the Republican
nomination next year, Mr..
Shipley told a morning political
study group of the District
League of Republican Women.
Mr.. Shipley said that no
one in the Rockefeller en-
tourage had told him this, but
it was the Judgment he had
reached after an hour-long
private meeting with the Gov
ernor in New York, plus several
conversations with Gov. Rookie
feller's contact men.
Bid Assumed @
In the absence of Mr.. Nixon's
sudden ascension to the presi-
dency, Mr.. Shipley said, IT
assume that Mr.. Rockefeller
will be a candidate and may
very well win the nomination"
Those who say Vice Presi-
dent Nixon will be nominated
because he is leading in the
polls by 10-l, 20-1 or 1901
are forgetting the history Of
the 1910 Republican conven-
ton which nominated Wendell
Willkie." he said. n"
On May /, 1910, Mr.. Willkie
was totally unknown in Re-
publican circles. BY May IS
he was a Republican household
word. He beat out Dewey and,
Taft, fellows with longtime
Republican connections who
thought they had the nominal
ton in their pockets"
Met the People -
AS a matter of fact, the
G. o. P. chairman continued,
"they did have the organiza-
ton. But while they were
meeting in smoke-filled rooms
with the politicians, Mr.. Will,
kie was across at the stock
yards eating hot dogs with the
people-and making friends
with his enormous, warm per-
sonality."
Gov. Rockefeller has the
same type Of warm, all-envelop-
ing personality, Mr.. Shipley
said. -,
He is filled with ebullient
good fellowship. He has an
electric personality. He grabs
you by the arm-you feel like
you have been electrucuted."
1.-THE man has an unusual
gift" Mr.. Shipley continued.
He has great presence, great
self confidence. He has the
name Of Rockefeller. He's not
afraid of nobody or nothing"

which it expects to lose in a few
minutes and to live thereafter
on the bounty which this coun-
| try bestows upon all defeated
enemies. Unfortunately, by the
maddest of fate'S whims, Fen
wick wins the war when a 20
man invasion force captures
Americas U-bomb, the ultimate
ultimate weapon.
With this weapon in its
hands, Fenwick as the symbol
of all weak, sideline nations
decides to do some pushing
around on its own. The process
adds up to something pretty
funny although here and there,
as in most farce, there is a
visible straining for effect.
The mild, mousey Fenwick-
ians who have done some
extravagant intermarrying, al
though not necessarily by
choice, are represented in the
film chiefly by Peter Sellers.
He plays three roles, those Of
crafty prime minister, field
marshal and ruling Grand
Duchess, the latter with a
touch of five o'clock shadow
and a baritone voice.
Mr.. Sellers is most amusing
as the reluctant field marshal,
leader of a 20-man Robin
Hood-garbed army which blum
ders into the New York labo-
ratory where the U-bomb is
linexplicably unguarded.
Still, his best line of dialogue
is that as the Grand Duchess
who, bidding farewell to the
American Secretary of State,
says: "Give my regards to your
President-and Mrs. Coolidge"
1t is somehow the perfect
summing up of the small
powers case against the great
ones, so busy juggling and try
ing not to drop their ultimate
bombs.
