WASHINGTON, DC. The
man who will lead the COP fight
to wrest the Deep South from the
ranks of the Democratic party
in November hints that Vice Pres
ident Richard NJ. Nixon will be
spearheading two simultaneous
campaigns for the presidency -
one in the South and another in
the North.
The Southern campaign will
feature aggressive attacks on the
Democratic presidential nominee
- Sen. John F. Kennedy of Mas
sachusetts - and the other will
be aimed at the northern states
with a more liberal persuasion
where Lyndon B. johnson, vice,
presidential nominee of the Dem
ocrats, will come under sharp at.
tack.
This was revealed by l. Lee
Potter, Republican State Chair
man for Virginia and special as
sistant to the Republican Nation,
al Committee in charge of South,
ern operations.
Potter indicated Nixon will base
his Southern campaign on broad
and specific charges that Sen.
John F. Kennedy is an ultra-lib,
eral, opposed to the best inter,
eStS of the South.
In the North, Potter says, Nix,
on will castigate the Democratic
vice presidential nominee, John,
son, as being too conservative
and against the best interests of
that region.
Meanwhile, Nixon will be un-
der heavy fire from johnson and
Kennedy, both of whom are also
eff ective, aggressive veteran
campaigners.
Senator Kennedy's presidential
campaign organization is plan
ming to utilize the talents of Vice
Presidential nominee Lyndon B
Johnson in the South, the West.
and in parts of the Midwest, a
Kennedy aide advised this news
papers Washington Bureau.
Senator Johnson should be
most effective in the South" the
aide said, but his campaigning
will not be confined to that re-
gion."
He said it had not been decided,
at this writing, whether Kennedy
would personally campaign ir

Rusk's Views on the Presidency

dated among the peculiarities
Of our constitutional system:
1t diverts time and energy
from exactly the point at
which We can spare it least;
1t does not give US effective
negotiation; such experience
as we have had with summit
diplomacy does not encour-
age the view that 1t contrib

American interests . . sum-
init diplomacy is to be ap-
preached with the wariness
with which a prudent phys
ician prescribes a habit
forming drug--a technique
to be employed rarely ana

circumstances. with rigorous
safeguards against its be-
coming a debilitating or dam
gerouS habit"
This quote. which indicates
Mr.. Rusk's thinking, is the
merest portion of a very solid
piece Of thinking. That 1t

Gratis Of prominence who
think the President-elect
made q mistake in Judgment,
and they are saying so pri-
vately. But this isn't the first
time a new President has re-
warded a man for his yeo-
man service In q campaign.
The President elect would no
doubt have appointed as At
torney General q political
ally had the latter not been
his brother.
II this Is the only mistake
the next President makes
during his term, it will be
readily subordinated by the
public to the record Of good
service rendered. But II other
errors emerge, then the
charges Of nepotisIn will be
banded about, and such ac-
cusations have been harmful
politically in the past, eS-
pecially when Representatives
and Senators have put mem
bers Of their respective fam
lilies on the public payroll.
Inexorably. the verdict
rendered by the voters has
been unfavorable, even when
the individuals themselves
were sufficiently experienced
and competent to be chosen
over other applicants for the
job. Many members Of Con-
gresS may argue that. If the
President can appoint his
brother to be q member Of the
Cabinet. 1t Is all right now If
they appoint their wives or
their sons or brothers to

voters at a subsequent elec-
tion may think otherwise.
The real conflict Of inter-
est issue that touches every
elected official Is whether he
Is beholden to the persons
who furnished money and
work for his election and who
feel themselves entitled to O
reward or compensation, or
whether such an elected Of
fetal can rise above personal
considerations and do his
duty in behalf Of the inter-
ests Of all the people.

Even Called UntruthfuI by YuqosIovs

World communism, in the
hectic years since the Boil
Sheviks under Vladimir Ily-
itch Lenin seized power in a
PROSTATE Russia, has proven
that 1t Is q contradiction in
itself-a fact of many facets.
The dialectic of Marxism
serves the Communists well
in explaining to the faithful
- when explanations are
considered necessary - why
the Zine" twists and turns,
why it is black today and
white tomorrow.
Recently the world was
treated" to a manifesto
from the capital of world
communism - Moscow, at
least for the time being -
which was indeed a more
turgid than usual presenta-
ton Of the intents, purposes,
principles and guides of the
struggle for socialism"
To anyone able to read it,
and there must have been
few, indeed, who could read
it and emerge with any sense
Of clarity, the document was
a new zenith in Communist
double-talk. In general, the
West decided that its tone
meant that Nikita Khrush-
chev and his policy Of peace
full coexistence had tri-
umphed over Mao TSe-tung
and his orthodox theory that
communism cannot triumph
over capitalism except by war
to the death.
But this curious and
lengthy collection Of verbi-
age. this opaque accumula-
ton Of Communist cliches,
this, vague and vapid &C
knowledgement Of Commu-
mist d I'm estic difficulties,
really said nothing to any,
one except perhaps to the
Communists themselves. And
even the latter, we have rea-
son to believe, are interpret

cordance with their individ-

Political platforms Of
United States political
parties have from the in
ception Of the platform idea
been replete with broad
generalities. specious obser-
vations, pious platitudes, and
pretty pledges. They have
been in many respects the
quintesSence Of piSh-posh.

Appointment of Woman to Top Post

At this stage it appears
that for women the New

Frontiers.
President-elect Kennedy

his top chain Of command.

and theoretical grounds.

the appointment. But he Is,
himself, o student Of govern

through the years read q

Quarterly. The spring issue Of
1860 had q lead article by him
titled, "The President" I"
This repeatedly appealed to
Senator Kennedy as o cogent,
able analysis.
The article, since Mr.. Rusk
was chosen. almost certainly
reveals some Of the President
elects lines Of thought. It is
sure to be reread and repub-
lished. It begins with q typical
example Of Mr.. Rusk's lucid
style.

ence and shape the course Of
events. :"
Mr.. Rusk developed his
thesis that there is much to
be done within constitutional
provisions much that has
not been done. A sense of
crisis is recurring in human
history, but, Mr.. Rusk thinks,
two factors enable our pc
riod to lay special claim to
"breathlessness." One is the
rate Of change In science and
technology. The second is
the emergence Of scores Of
independent nations not yet
firmly set upon their course
and the multiplication Of
those who must be taken into
account in our thinking.
Having thus set the stage.
he says that while Mr.. Tru-
mans remark, THE Presi-
dent makes foreign policy"
is not the whole story, 1T
serves very we'll If one wishes
to deal with the matter in
five words"
There is another revealing
paragraph. Mr.. Rusk notes
that q President finds that
making policy is not the end
Of his task. He may find 1t
negated by unwilling SUBJ
ordinates." This would ex-
plain Senator Kennedy's
search, gratifyingly success
full thus far, for willing sub
ordinates.
Mr.. RuSk placed q large
question mark over the sub
ject Of Presidential summit
meetings:
"The President. as Chief of
State Of the United States,
can and ought to undertake
a limited and carefully
planned program of state
visits, short in duration and
aimed at the exchange of

Conflict of Interest Issue Called
One of the Most Hypocritic0l
DAVID LAWRENCE

Critics inside and outside
Congress are beginning to
cry conflict Of interest" as
they express disapproval Of
the selection by President
elect Kennedy Of his brother
Robert to be Attorney Gen
eral. Theoretically, 1t is being
said. the Department Of jus
tice will not be free to ex-
pose and prosecute scandals
that may arise In the new
administration.
This brings into focus the
whole conflict Of interest is
sue which is one Of the most
hypocritical that can arise
: In government. Thus, Rob-
ert 8. Mcnamara, the new
Secretary Of Defense, has
been obliged to sell all his
securities in the Ford Motor
Car Co.. Of which he was
president. He and his family
are deprived Of q valuable
investment just because Of o
suspicion that, II he owned
Ford stock, the mpany
might be awarded q Govern
ment contract that it other
wise wouldn't receive. The
same issue was raised when
Charles Z. Wilson, former
president Of General Motors,
was named Secretary Of De-
tense by President Eisen-
hover about eight years ago.
and he sold the securities he
owned In his company.
But, as was noted in these
dispatches in 1853, the as
sumption that . public ON

account the impact on his
personal investments is fall

If indeed the windy and
wordy text indicated a VIC
tory for Mr.. Khrushchev's

it meant that the Soviet type
Of communism could con-
tinue to, exist side-by-side
with capitalism, then how
explain the prompt and un-
equivocal response Of Yugo-
slaYia, a Communist nation
that has dared to challenge
on the surface the supremacy
Of the Russians in matters
Yugoslavian?
Belgrade did not accept
the manifesto as evidence
that the Khrushchev forces
and theories had triumphed.

that part of the manifesto

that can be affected in q gen.
eral way by court decisions.
But II o specific case arises
involving q company in which
he owns stocks, the Justice
in question merely disquali-
fieS himself from taking part
In that particular case. He
doesn't resign his office.
There's an old principle Of
law which says that q man is
to be considered innocent un-
til proven guilty. But the
present-day concept Of con-
hict Of interest, as 1t affects
Cabinet ofdcers, is Just the
reverse-they are presumed
to be ready to sacrifice the
public interest to their per-
sonal interest.
Now, with the appoint
ment Of Robert r. Kennedy
as Attorney General. the ar
gument Is being made that
he would not take any action
in the Department of Justice
that might reflect discredit
on the administration Of his
brother. Again, the assump-
ton is that o man can be
guilty Of wrongdoing without
any proof that he ever will
be.
But, in an impersonal
sense, every Attorney General
has to decide whether he will
follow the letter Of the law
and prosecute wrongdoers,
even though such action
brings discredit on the ad-
ministration Of which he is o
part. II he doesn't prosecute,
certainly there are congress

inquiry and could even bring
