Rockefeller Strategy Gives New Status

ers-and he will in the
clinches depend on his own
as all politicians do will
start by asking questions
like this: Can the pattern be
broken again? Where are
next years votes? Can Mr..
Nixon get them? Can Gov.
Rockefeller? Or is it a Dem
ocratic year?
If it is decided that the
"star system" where the can
didate is so much bigger than
his party might work again,
then the problem, of course,
is how to get the nominal
ton. 1t is improbable that a
Rockefeller would feel that
he could be outmaneuvered
by Mr.. Nixon within the con-
fines of the party which bust
ness so largely regards as its
own.
A key spot is the South
whose Republican delegates
comprise about a third of the
convention strength. This is
an obvious imbalance in the
light of the party's national
electoral strength in that
area, but it has long persisted
and few Republicans ever
challenge it.
iSouthern Republican lead
erS are saying little. Southern
Democrats of proved political
acumen are sure that if Gov.
Rockefeller became a can
didate in earnest and in time,
he would be the Southern
favorite. This opinion is not
entirely due to the cynical
self interest so often attached
to Southern Republicanism,
for Rockefeller benefactions
in the area have been enor-
nous.

is the Midwest. Agriculture

Gov. Rockefeller tossed the
poll-takerS an unexpected
posy when he said he would
base his decision on whether
to try for the presidency on
what the public opinion polls

The Governor was speaking
with reporters who were ques-
tioning him closely about his
ability to win the Republican
nomination from Vice Presi-
dent Nixon. Mr.. Nixon is
working 60 minutes every

Gov. Rockefeller is holding

But as public excitement

ident, himself, who was new
er too keen about the whole
idea of Federal aid to edu-
cation, is anything but keen
about it now.
The attitude represented
by Mr.. Flemming was never
really the attitude Of the Re-
publicans generally. He was,
and increasingly is, in a
minority within the COP.
Thus, today his real neces-

to help him-but for Heav-
ems sake not to help him too
much and to bring out a
bill at which the President
would not glance twice be-
fore reaching for the veto

1t is at this moment that
he most needs the under

because they are so earnest
they are withholding that

nothing-and are extremely
likely to get the latter.

Notes on Nixon Journey:
DO the Soviets have any
great superiority in engineer
ing design, machines. or
tools?
The answer is no.
Visits to Soviet steel and
shipyards plants revealed no
great and exciting advances.
The great industrial centers
at Chicago. Pittsburgh.
Cleveland and others like
them are superior in all
technical respects. This. Of
course. the Russians admit.
Every Soviet worker has been
told about II as part Of the
production propaganda Of
catching up" with the
United States.
In general, one could say,
based on questioning Of
Admiral Lyman Rickover
and others who are trained
industrial observers. the So
VETS have no startling or
superior knowledge or tech
niques.
Their secret weapons
would seem to be two.
Admiral Rickover and DR..
Milton Eisenhower believe
the USSR's educational sys-
TEN has been designed more
efficiently to serve Marxist
detectives than our system
has been prepared to further
the detectives Of democratic
American capitalism. They do
not waste time on frills.
Their high-school graduate
is believed to be about two
years ahead Of the average
United States graduate in
sound, basic education.
The Russian method is
coldly calculating. In effect.
it says to the Soviet boy or
girl, IF you wish to be a
ditch digger or hand laborer
all your life, that is Nur
choice. But If. on the other
hand, you wish to work hard
and study we will recognize
your talent and give you
every opportunity to use it,"
Once that decision is made
the student then has not
much choice left. The die
having been cast to be a
doctor or scientist, one pulls
out at great and lasting cost.
There is not much oppor-
tunity for a second chance.
But none should overlook
the fact that this recogni-
ton of revealed talent and
the granting Of opportunity
to it, is a secret weapon. And

ton to make its system more
