Mitchell Aides Fight
Talk of Influence Loss
BY LEE M. COIN
star stan Writer

Associates Of Labor Secretary
Mitchell, suspecting a political
conspiracy. are struggling to
squelch talk that he has lost
his influence with President
Eisenhower.
"T7e can't afford to have the
impression get around that his
pick Is broken" an aide re-
marked yesterday.
Actually, his associates main
tain. the Secretary is a leading
member Of the cabinet and en-
joys the Presidents full con-
fidence in labor matters. They
insist there is absolutely no
truth TO published rumors that
Mr.. Mitchell is thinking about
resigning because Of recent re-
bluffs. m
RESIGNATION reports were
planted by Right-wing Repub-
licans who have been fighting
the Secretary's relatively lib
eral policies, according to one
theory current in the Labor
Department.
Possible Repercussions
Speculation that Mr.. Nit
chell's position is weak could
have major repercussions af-
fecting the Secretary person.
allv and the Republican Party.
Mr.. Mitchell could run into
trouble advancing his views on
labor reform, unemployment
and other issues. Rumors that
a key official is slipping can
undercut him, whether or not
the rumors are true initially.
If Mr.. Mitchell's stature
within the administration Is
eroded and the conservatives
swing policy to the right. the
Republicans could lose their
main link to organized labor
tenuous as the link is.
The Secretary believes his
brand Of middle-road liberal
ism can attract millions of
union members to the Repub-
lican Party, despite the Demo-
cratic bias of most labor lead
ers. He wants to expunge the
anti-labor image" Of the
G OF. but fears that con-
servatives like Senators Gold

Of Illinois stand in the way.

grading Mr.. Mitchell's prestige
may hurt his personal political
future. He apparently has am
billions to run for Vice Presi-
dent.
Speculation that the Secre-
tary is losing his influence
reached a high pitch last week
when Mr.. Eisenhower came out
officially against direct Federal
action to raise unemployment
compensation payments and
lengthen their duration.
1t is understood that Mr..
Mitchell recommended Federal
standards for jobless benefits.
but the President over ruled
HIM and stuck to his policy Of
urging the States to act. The
Secretary has accepted the
Presidents decision with evi-
dent reluctance.

Senator Kennedy, Democrat

of $184, 900.
These figures do not include
