Nixon Confounds His Opponents

> have now been two great
gatherings Of Democrats at
which the leading possibilities
for their presidential nomi-
nation have been trotted out
for public inspection. The first
was In New York, a dinner
to honor Mrs. Eleanor Roose-
velt, and the second was here
in Washington last Saturday.
The final selection of the
Democratic candidate to run
against Mr.. Nixon still re-
mains clouded in doubt. Sen.
ators Kennedy Of Massachu-
sets and Humphrey Of Min
nesota are at present doing
all the open running. The
half dozen others, however,
are quietly saving wood. Both
Senator Kennedy. and Senator
Humphrey are engaged in
selecting the presidential
preference primaries in the
States where they have better
chances Of success. They
are, however. both entered in
one interesting primary-that
Of Wisconsin, Senator Ken
nedy has announced he will
enter also the Nebraska pri-
mary and virtually extended
a challenge to the Minnesotan
to come in there, too. Sena-
tor Humphrey, on the other
hand, has announced he will
enter the West Virginia pri-
mary and has extended q
challenge to Mr.. Kennedy to
come into that State,
Problem in Wisconsin
Wisconsin's unusual .pri-
mary law, which, permits
Republicans to vote in the
Democratic primary, and
Democrats to vote in the
Republican primary, creates
a problem for both Senator's,
and for the Republicans. II
Vice President Nixon's name
Is not entered in the Wiscon-
sin primary. the Republican
voters will be. footIoose., They
will be able, If they wish, to
cross over and vote either
for Senator Kennedy or for
Senator Humphrey, depend
ing on their views of which is
the better strategy. ! The Vice
President has not Sd far made
any statement regarding the
Wisconsin primary. He is
reported still considering
whether he will have his
name entered. Whatever his
decision, he will be assured
the votes OF the Wisconsin
delegates at the Republican
National Convention In July.
Both Senator Kennedy and
Senator Humphrey are at
tacking Mr.. Nixon. They can
do so in their speeches in the
Wisconsin primary campaign.
The important thing, how
ever, is what they say about
each other. Senator Hum
phrey thinks he has a better
record on a number; Of issues
important to the voters of
Wisconsin than his opponent,
Senator Kennedy-for ex-
ample, the farm problem, and
even civil rights. He has
urged the Massachusetts,
Senator to meet him in Joint
debate. But Senator Kennedy
so far has declined.
Meanwhile, the, Democratic
leaders are still pondering
the question y Who is the
strongest candidate to. oppose
Mr.. Nixon in the general
election? Primary results
may have considerable effect
on this final decision. The
Kennedy strategy is to 90
into and win as many pri-
maries as he can. But it does
not rest there alone. He is
constantly moving for sup
port. of party leaders in
States which hold no pri>
marieS-and he seems to be
making headway.

Hooks Huge Pike

Jack Williams, a garage operator
in Friendsville, last week caught
the largest great northern pike
ever ncttcd in Maryland waters.
The pike was 1874 pounds in
weight and measured an even
three feet at 36 inches. He hooked
the monster in the Yough River
where Mill Run, a trout stream,
empties into the river. These
northern pike were stocked sew
eral years ago by the Pennsylvania
Fish Commission in Yough Lake.
The fish have migrated into Gar
rett COunty's part of the river.
Early in May a pike weighing 8
pounds and four ounces was
caught by Raymond VanSickle of
Friendsvillc in the same area. The
pike caught by Williams was about
mile from the Pennsylvania
border when hooked.

Advice on Chronic Anxiety
BY DR.. PETER J. sTEINcRoHN

I have received many let
terS from readers who want
to help others. Having been
through a frightening expe-
rience or narrowing illness,
they try to bring hope to
those still floundering around
In hopelessnesS.
TODAY'S LETTER is
from one who has overcome
the desperation and suffering
which bedevil so many thou
sands of people who bend
under the load of chronic
anxiety.
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I
read your column quite faith
fully - today'S letter from
Mrs. x was very interesting
to me.
AS you say, she suffers from
chronic anxiety. 1t is Ger
tainly a horrible thing to
have to face the world with
a feeling of overwhelming
hopelesSneSS and great fear.
I know! Because was in
that state for at least a year.
And while I was going
through it, it seemed as if
I had been in that state for
as long as I could remember.
I would like to help Mrs. x.
I am about the same age she
is and, now that am over
that terrible period of an
guish, I realize how wonder
full life can be.
I was lucky, I went to a
hospital in Connecticut where
I had the best of psychiatric
care. Mrs. x says she can't
afford a psychiatrist or psy-
choanalyst, That does not
mean she should give up. I
think the most important
aid to mental apathy is the
knowledge that you have to
help yourself in order to get
well.
When I got out of the hos
pital a year ago, I was not
anywhere near being COM
pletely well. I had to leave
because finances were run
ming low. Each day appeared
to me to be a terrible noun
tain I had to climb.
I forced myself to get out
side, even though I would
have preferred to stay home,
lying in bed. Each day I
made out a list of things I
was going to do and ac-
complish. At the end of the
day it was a wonderful feel
ing to know that I had
really been successful in
carrying out what I had
planned.
Every day the huge noun
tain seemed to become just a
little lower. Today, thanks

MY husband has sold his
business and retired. With

from the business we made
the down payment on a

carrying an $4,000 mortgage.
I'VE also own a cottage in

$4,000. We still have a $4,000
mortgage on it. We rent this
cottage out for 500 a month
and use this to pay taxes.
Insurance and mortgage pay
ments on the cottage.
I'VE figure that our $4,000
home is costing US $125 a
month plus $500 a year in
taxes and insurance. Our an
nuities take care of this.
MY husband, thinking we
should have some investment
property, took part of the
money from the sale of his
business and bought a piece
of real estate in Arizona. He
thought we should not have
a third mortgage on our
hands so he borrowed $4,000
from the bank to enable him
to buy the Arizona property
outright. We are paying of
this loan at $75 a month
and hope to rent out the
Arizona property for $3.50 a
month :"
