Kennedy's sweeping victory
showed his pulling power in
the pivotal States, and it was
reinforced there by an un-
equivocal platform his own
adviser, Representative Ches-
ter BowleS of Connecticut,
had managed.
Then came weekend word
from Chicago that Rookie
feller was adamant about
liberalizing the platform and
ready to fight it out on the
floor. What this might do
to him in New York and
similar States had to concern
the Vice President deeply.
He was not without weap-

cans, mostly upstate, are for
him and resentful of Rookie
feller's leadership. Already
their spokesman, State SEN

WILLIAM S. WHITE
City Is HeortIond of RepubIiconism,
Actual Birthplace of the Party

CHICAGO-An atmosphere
of remembrance, of nostal-
gia, and of homecoming over
hangs the Republican Ma
tional Convention. The con-
vention oddly suits Chicago.
And Chicago oddly suits the
convention.
For if this sprawling,
brawling city itself is tradi-
tionally an urban Democratic
stronghold. this is far more
than merely a city. 1t is the
capital of a vast area called
the American Middlewest-
and it is the capital, still, of
the Republican Party.
The Middlewest is the
heartland of Republicanism.
the birthplace of the Grand
Old Party and the spiritual
home of the first Republican
President, Abraham Lincoln.
whose nomination occurred
just a hundred years ago.
Chicago, in a word, is the
more or less inevitable ma
tional meeting place for the
Republicans. So it is the seat
of many mixed memories for
them. For example, it was
here that the Republicans
marshaled in 1852 after 20
years in exile from the White
House to begin a triumphant
march back with the nomi-
nation of Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower.
1t was here also, in that
same year, that the brilliant
ly wrong headed. the brave
and honorable "Mr. Repub-
lican." the late Senator
Robert A. Taft of Ohio. SUI
fered a last and knowingly
gallant defeat III his long
and doomed ambition to
reach the Presidency.
1t is an easy writer's cliche
to proclaim that ghosts are
in such a place as this. But,

hover here, all the same. AS
a bystander 7, for one, can
still see as though this we're
yesterday the frantic move
ments back and forward over
this city of eight long years
ago as the massive Taft and
Eisenhower forces grappled
in combat for the mind of
the Republican Party.
In the thick of action al
ways, day and night, stood
Taft. His own commander.
his own chief Of staff, he
strobe caucus room and cor
ridor, the endless lights CLINT
ing on his eyeglasses as he
battled for Robert Taft and
Robert Taft's concept of
what the party should be.
Removed from the public
eye and from the public pit
of action, Eisenhower was
operating wholly through
his advisers.
Taft's basic strength was
Middlewestern; Eisenhower's
was Eastern. So when the
smoke had cleared, the losers,
for the record, were Taft and
the Middlewest; the winners
Eisenhower and the East.
Now. looking back on the
past Chicago from the Chi
cago of the present, one sees
that the victory was far
from total. The Eastern or
Modern" Republicans had
won a great battle, but not
an ultimate war.
For the new Republican
Presidential nominee about
to emerge from these less
than-frantic present proceed
tings, Richard M. Nixon, is a
bridge and blend between the
Taft Old Guard and the East
ern New Guard. Taft was
beaten here. yes. And Taft
was soon to die. But Taft Re-
publicanism, diluted perhaps,
still lives on here.

Century of Evidence Held Showing
His Effect on Election is OVerroted

Take next the 1852 cam
paign, when the Democrats
thought it might be helpful
to have a Southerner on the
ticket. Senator John Spark
man. the vice presidential
nominee, carried his home
State of Alabama, though by
a greatly reduced majority as
the Republicans piled up a
vote in that State nearly
four times what Dewey. the
Republican presidential nom
inee got in either 1914 or
1948. But the presence of a
Southerner on the ticket
didn't prevent four other
Southern States - Texas,
Tennessee, Florida and Vir-
ginia-from going Republi-
can, and there was no re-
ligious issue involved either.
Take then the 1856 election
when another Southerner,
Senator Estes Kefauver, was
named for the vice presi-
dency on the Democratic
ticket after a consistent
string of victories in the pri-
maries of several States in
the North. The South didn't
back him. Not only did he
lose his own State of Tennes-
see, but the Republicans also
again carried Florida, Texas
and Virginia and added the
electoral votes of Louisiana
and the Border States" of
Kentucky and West Virginia.
AS for Democratic presi-
Dental nominee Adlai Ste
venson, he lost his home
State of Illinois both in 1852
and 1856. His running mates
in the two campaigns had no
influence in his behalf in the
Northern States.
There have, moreover,
been instances in which the
vice presidential nominee
lost his home State, but the
party ticket won just the
same. Thus, in 1910, Henry
Wallace, Democratic candi-
date for the vice presidency,
failed to carry his own State
of Iowa, but Franklin D.
Roosevelt won the election.

DAVID LAWRENCE
Vote Appeal of No. 2 Candidate

John Bricker carried his own
State of Ohio as the vice
presidential nominee on the
Republican ticket in 1914.
while presidential nominee
Dewey failed to carry New
York State and lost the elec-
ton.
Another instance Of failure
of the vice presidential nomi-
nee to help win the election
was in 194S, when Earl War
rem, former Governor Of
California and now Chief
Justice of the United States,
lost his home State while
Dewey won his own State Of
New York. Yet the Republic
cans mistakenly thought in
1948 that the presence Of
Warren, the progressive, on
the ticket would help them
to victory nationally. The So
called logic of the convention
hours somehow proves Of
little consequence by Novem-
ber.
When the American people
vote in a presidential elec-
tion, they apparently either
cast their ballots for the
party they favor or the presi-
Dental nominee they like
they don't stop to appraiSe
the possibility that a vice
presidential nominee. if elect
ed, might possibly be Presi-
dent some day. Indeed, seven
Vice President, have succeed
ed to the presidency out Of a
total of 33 men who have
held the Office of President.
Thus, about one out Of five,
or a little more than 81 per
cent, Of the Presidents have
come to the White House
through the vice presidency.
Three who succeeded to the
presidency were subsequently
elected in their own right.
All this really suggests
that each party should select
for the second place on the
ticket the best qualified man
in its ranks irrespective of
the geographical area in
which he lives and irrespec-
tive Of whether ne can
placate the dissidents of a
certain theological wing of
his party.

CHICAGO.-In both parties
there's been an overemphasis
on the vice presidency. The
selection-or failure to select
any particular individual-in
either case will not decisively
influence the result.
II it's in the cards, for in
stance. for Nixon to carry
New York State, he will do
so irrespective of whether
Gov. Rockefeller is his run
ming mate.
II, on the other hand, it's
IN the cards for Senator Ken
nedy to win the election, he
viii do so without the States
IN the South he is supposed
to have drawn to his banner
by the selection of Lyndon
johnson as the vice presi-
Dental nominee.
History proves that in not
a single instance has the vice
presidential nominee of eth
er party, by carrying his own
State, contributed enough
electoral votes to bring in his
running mate. This has been
true for more than 100 years.
Take the 1928 election, for
instance. AL Smith, who had
three times been elected Gov
ernor Of New York on the
Democratic ticket, did not
carry the electoral votes of
his own State. AS for his vice
presidential nominee, Joseph
T. Robinson-who was ma
tionally known because, like
Lyndon johnson, he was the
Democratic leader in the
Senate-the results after
election day showed that he
carried his home State of
Arkansas all right, though by
a reduced margin. But he
couldn't prevent five other
States of the Solid South
from going Republican.
This has often been at
tributed to the religious is
sue, but this writer always
has believed it was related to
the prohibition issue. For the
South was determined at that
time to keep its States dry
because of circumstances re-
lated to the Negro problem.

G. o. P. Strotegists Feel Texan
Presents Them With Real Problem

CHICAGO - Republican
Strategists accepted the Lyn-
don johnson addition to the
Democratic ticket as requir-
ing more work. Some of the
newcomers to party councils
may have been shaken, since
they were, perhaps, overcon-
fldent before. But the battle
toughened leadership remains
calm, admitting only it
meant an increase in toll.
From their viewpoint they
have one basic asset with
which to begin. It is that
there is no great discontent-
ment in the land. The coun-
try is prosperous. There is,
so far as they can determine,
presently no demand for a
change.
Inc O. .. P. staff considers
the picture to be something
like this:
l. There is some uneval-
uated discomfort on agricul-
ture. Yet, the North Dakota
election did not reveal the
farm vote to show any great
signs of discontentment with
the Republican farm policy,
even though a Democrat won
a narrow victory. The gen.
erals at the Republican COM
mand post believe this true
for two reasons. One, the
country pretty we'll knows
that Nixon will have a new
policy. Also, it has been COM
mon knowledge for seven
years that the vice president
and Secretary Benson did
not see eye to eye and were
not, in fact, mutual admirers.
The farm policy is as much
Democratic as Republican.
The farmers have shown
they are cynical about both
parties insofar as anything
save a political approach to
the problem is concerned.

RockefeIIer-Like Johnson-BeIieved
Expecting Cut in Vice Presidents Role

longs to the President and
that Kennedy and Nixon are
the type who will use it, leav-
ing very little lying around
for a vice president. President
Eisenhower's age, health and
passive concept of the presi-
dency, in combination with
Nixon'S aggressivenesS and
astuteneSs, have obscured this
fact for the public.
But both johnson and
Rockefeller have had long
service in Washington. john
son knows no Senator can be-
come great by fighting a
President of his own party,
so he would have to play sec
ond fiddle to a President Ken
nedy or be displaced. Rookie
feller served as an Eisenhow-
er assistant and had actual
experience of being euchred
out of authority by Eisen-
hower'S refusal to interfere
with Sherman Adams and
the late John Foster Dulles.
Thus Nixon had powerful
motives for picking up the
telephone to Rockefeller even
before this convention began
to jell. Fading rapidly were
the Vice Presidents rosy vi
sionS of carrying a disaffected
Texas and Southern and
border States presumably
sensitive to Kennedy'S Ca
tholiciSrn. The unexpected

CHICAGO.-Vice President
Richard M. Nixon has sur
rendered on principle to Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller in or

unity and strengthen his ap-
peal to the big States where

But the dream ticket" Of
Nixon-Rockefeller still eludes
the party, and the question
remains whether platform
promises can serve the pur-
pose when they are not dram
atized by the persons of the
conflicting leaders.
What hurts is that the
