Plea for New Approach

C.. r. Smith, president of American
AirlineS, has prescribed some strong
medicine for treatment of his industryS
economic problems. In doing so, the
head of the Nations biggest domestic
trunkline has thrown out a potentially
controversial challenge not only to the
industry itself but to the Federal Gov
ernment in its regulatory and policy
making roles
Mr.. Smith believes, he told the Avia-
tion Writers Association, that the trunk
lines can and should be Self-supporting,
that they should receive no direct Gov
ernment subsidy and that, in fact, the
subsidy section of the Federal Aviation
Act, insofar as it applies to these car
rierS, should be repealed. Even more
basic in the Smith prescription, how
ever, was his recommendation that the
Civil Aeronautics Board should take
steps to realign the whole domestic
route structure in a way to eliminate
the "waSteful competition" that has re-
suited from layer on layer of parallel
ing services. He proposes that it be done
in large part through encouraging merg-
erS that would give more efficient
carriers reasonable opportunity" for
profit in a market that currently is
divided among too many.
The complaint of excessive competi-
ton is not new one, nor has it been
voiced by airline Spokesmen alone. In
veStment analysts, for example, have
taken dim view of the industry in re-
cent yearS-largely on grounds of the
low earnings potential under conditions
of great capital needs and overcom-
petition on many routes From another
outside source-a survey team employed
by the Bell Telephone System to study
progress in regulated and unregulated
induStry-there was a similar evalua-
ton. 'UnlesS industry profits are kept
at healthy levels" this team warned,
"the airlineS could start down the path
the railroads have Travelled. Up to now
the story of the airlines sounds very
much like the history of the railroads.
1t began with subsidies. Then regula-
tions stepped in. Competition and reg
ulation made tangle which greatly
restricted freedom of the companies.
For the good of everyone, the airlineS
must not end up where the railroads are
today"
For the past four years the CAB has
been studying industry requests for a
general fare increase. During the past
week end it announced approval of a
new rate-of-return formula that is ex-
pected to allow some increases as of
July /. AS for direct subsidies, none of
the major domestic carriers now receives
such aid although Washington-baSed
Capital has requested emergency help.
Along with diSapproving the subsidy
system, Mr.. Smith added that rate in
creaSeS will never be panacea" for an
industry that needs low rates to en-
courage travel and contribute to growth.
Mr. Smiths credentials in the industry
are good ones His suggestion that the
industry and the Government take an
other look FOR the fright level of COM
petition may be equally good.

Kennedy's Courage

Thank you for printing the

speech given before the
American Society of News

me to bring to us all, whether
newspaper people or not, the
Importance of clear think

though I belong neither to
the same political party nor

his courage in facing the

his clarity of thought in
stating his position. Thank
God that men of his caliber

Dear Sir:
ALREADY the perpetual
argument in my family has
begun, whether round flower
beds are OK.
"I speak up for them, my
husband goes in for borders.
Il have a neat sort of mind,
I guess, that fairly gloats on
a round flower bed.
my lesser half says they
are out of style, whatever
that means, and are not
functional.
"I ask him what is func-
tional about the narrow strip
of earth, totally lacking in
character. and bearable only
when completely stuffed with
greenery.
HE says my round beds
were all right for grand
mother, but are not tolerated
in the modern garden.
"I ask what is so modern
about our garden. filled with
children's bicycles, toys. and
that ugly old power mower
you stub your toes on every
time you come from the ga
rage.
Can you help in this argu-
ment?
eff you can, thanks.
MARY L. E."

We put this up to our
buffer zone, widely called
Templeton Jones.
Mr.. Jones is always avail
able in problems of this sort.
He loves to shoot OFF his
mouth, as the vernacular
has it.
Sometimes he gets his foot
into it, as the saying is. like
that time he tried to help
the lady delegates from
North Dakota.
Before he was through
giving them directions, heav-
en- help him, one of the lady
delegates had accused him
of wanting to direct her to
a mental hospital!
And all he had said, he
explained afterward, was
that Doctors Hospital was at
the next corner.
Never argue with a lady
from North Dakota" he said,
feelingly.

Mr.. Jones says that, when
1t comes to the relative merits
of round versus rectangular
flower beds, it all depends.
ut all depends"
With that triumphant

phrase, many a Daniel-come-
to-judgment has weathered
the worst storms of debate.
So many things, it seems,
depend upon something or
other.
When it comes to flower
beds, according to Jones, it
all depends upon what kind
of a garden one wants.
If the owner just doesn't
care, one way or another,
Jones says, he may mix 'em
up.
If he reverts, mentally, to
the old days, he will go
round.
If he is strictly modern, he
will allow no round beds at
all, but only perennial flower
borders.
= 4
Above all (still according
to jones' he will not have a
big round bed in front of the
house.
These went out some years
ago, when the WASHINGTON
parks put thumbs down on
them.
In the old days, Jones says,
the parks had scores of nice
big round beds, each one
filed to overhowing with big
red cannas.
AS Jones recalls, these
cannas were. the reddest red
in the world. Not even the
red cloth waved by the BAN
doliers, or whoever it is who
waves the red flag at the
bull in the ring, excelled in
redness the big flowers of
the Washington parks.
This royal red Haunted it
self at all the parks, big and
little.
You could see them from
any angle. Some even said
they glowed at night, sort of
phosphorescent-like, but that
was just a way of saying
they were really red.
Then along came an es-
thetic soul who said, Take
them away. They are not
modern"
So they were taken away,
and in their place we got
proper azaleas and others in
the modern manner.
Our eyes, Jones says, got
peace at last. Now we can
go into a Washington park
without having our orbs
knocked out, he says. Green,
he says, is wonderful.
But" we protested, what
about round flower beds ver-
sus rectangular"
Templeton Jones grinned.

possibility for the presiden-
tial nomination than Senator
Humphrey. Senator Morse's
efforts here and in the Mary
land primary are regarded
more as an attempt to build
him up for reelection to the
Senate in 1862 than a serious
effort to win a presidential
nomination, which he can
not do.
Crucial for Kennedy
The contest in West Vir-
ginia's primary campaign
between Senators Kennedy
and Humphrey has reached
an unusual stage of bitter
ness, with the religious issue
shouted from the housetops.
If Senator Kennedy can win
there. it will be a great
feather in his cap-for the
State is rated overwhelmingly
Protestant-94 per cent to 6
per cent Catholic. Senator
Humphrey has undoubtedly
had the aid of Democrats
who support other presiden-
tlal candidates - including
Senator Symington and Sen
ator Johnson of Texas, not
to mention Mr.. Stevenson.
Most observers give the edge
to Senator Humphrey. De-
spite the fact West Virginia
has a relatively small dele
cation in the national con-
vention, a Kennedy victory
would go far toward assur-
ing him the nomination at
Los Angeles. Only a COM
pletely devastating d efeat
would ruin Senator Kennedy,
who has shown well in other
primaries, and who will win
the Nebraska primary with
out opposition on the same
day as the West Virginia
voting.
Senator Kennedy is due,
also, to win the Maryland
primary on May II, where
his only opponent is Senator
Morse. He is expected, also.
to show we'll in the Oregon
primary May 20, where all
the leading Democratic can
didates are entered, as well
as Senator Morse.
Vice President Nixon's
showing in the presidential
primaries to date has been
excellent-particularly as he
has done no campaigning in
any of them. This is true
in New Hampshire, Illinois,
Pennsylvania, for example,
where he did as well or bet
ter than the Eisenhower vote
in 1856. In the Wisconsin
primary he ran third, but the
Republicans were permitted
to cross over and vote in the
hard battle between Sena-
tors Kennedy and Humphrey
IN that State-and literally
thousands did so.
Conceivably, however, the
Vice President could be hurt
If he made a poor showing
in Indiana and Ohio, as COM
pared to Senator Kennedy.
And he could be hurt even
more by a poor showing in
the California primary June
Z. The far larger Democratic
registration in California
running from 100000 up
over the Republican registra-
ton will make it difficult for
him. However, Gov. Brown,
who will be his Democratic
opponent" in this test, ap-
pears to have lost popularity,
and that may affect his vote.
Upon these tenuous, psyche
logical impressions will hang
in large part any chance that
the COP. may turn to Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller as its
standard bearer.

THE POLITICAL MILL
So Much May Hang on So Little
By GOULD LINCOLN

Presidential prim arie s
within the next three weeks,
starting today, will have ex-
alted or busted front-run-
ming candidates for the
Democratic and Republican
nominationS-as far as they
are able to do so. Virtually
all the psychological effect
Of the primaries will have
been exhausted. Only two
additional primaries, those
in California and South Da-
kota June Z, will still remain
undecided. In California,
Gov. Pat Brown, Democrat,
is the only entrant of promi-
nence on his side of the po-
litical fence. George McLain,
friend of the old people, is
competing with the Cover
nor for the Democratic dele
CATION to the national con-
vention in Los Angeles. Sem
ator Humphrey of Minnesota
is the sole leading Democrat
entered in the South Dakota
primary.
The results of the primar-
les today in Indiana, Ohio
and the District of Columbia
will be carefully scanned.
Senator Kennedy of Massa-
chusettS is running in the
Indiana Democratic primary
and Vice President Nixon is
running in the Republican.
The question there is will
Senator Kennedy get more
votes in the Democratic pri-
mary than Mr.. Nixon does in
the Republican? Indiana is
a Midwest, Protestant State,
although the Catholic pop
'ulation is substantial. If Sen
ator Kennedy's showing is
good there. as compared to
Mr.. Nixon's, not only will the
effect be to lessen the oppo-
sition of national Democratic
leaders to him on the reli-
gious issue. but it will have,
the Kennedy people hope. an
effect on the West Virginia
primary where a week hence
Senators Kennedy and Hum
phrey clash. with the reli-
gious issue in the foreground.
The Ohio Picture
The Ohio primary finds a
slate of delegates committed
to Gov. Mike Disable, who
has promised to deliver them
to Senator Kennedy. There is
a Nixon slate of candidates,
offered by the G. O.P. State
organization. Former Senator
George Bender is bucking the
slate, running himself for
delegate-at-large.
There, as in Indiana. it
will be a comparison of the
number of votes cast for the
Republican convention dele
gates to the number cast for
the Democratic delegates.
The Democrats may be aided
in the turnout of voters be-
cause, as in Indiana, there
are two party factions fight
ing each other-one headed
by Ray Miller in Cleveland,
and the other by Gov. Di-
Sale.
The District of Columbia
primary calls for a showdown
between supporters of SEN
ator Humphrey and Senator
Wayne Morse of Oregon, with
a third group of Democrats
pledged to a draft" of Adlai
Stevenson for the presiden-
tial nomination. Mr.. Steven
son has urged his friends not
to vote for him in this pri-
mary, insisting he is not a
candidate. Chief interest will
lie in the number of votes
cast for Mr.. Stevenson, who
today is rated far more of a
