'UnWise' Is Riqht

Some New FrontierSmen, faced with
the prospect of choosing new Speaker
in January, have been probing the
possibilities of bypaSSing John w.
Mccormack or, failing that, of elevating
him to figurehead status. The success
of this effort, or more probably its lack
of success, will be observed with interest
by those who, having no candidate of
their own, can watch the maneuvering
from the Sidelines.
Mr.. Mccormack, at SO, has been the
Democratic majority leader in the
House since 1949. Thus, in terms of
service, he is the logical successor to
Speaker Sam Rayburn, who is critically
i'll with cancer. But those Democrats
who prefer someone else raise two OBJ
jectionS. They suspect Mr.. Mccormack
Of something less than unreServed
dedication to the New Frontiers legiS-
lative program. And they know he has
been at odds with the President in the
past in Massachusetts, political battles.
AS a consequence, they have been send
ing up trial balloons in behalf Of other
prospective candidates for the speaker
ship. If this doesn't pay off, and it
probably will not, the Speaker makers
are expected to fall back to their second
line-from which they would try to
engineer Mr.. McCormack's election, but
with strong" man Of their own polit
ical persuasion as his ranking assistant.
Our guess is that John Mccormack
will not be so easily sidetracked. He is
no novice at the politicking game and
he has strong supporters. In all likeli-
hood nothing less than open interven-
ton by the President in behalf Of
someone else could defeat Mr.. McCor-
mack, and it is by no means certain that
even this could turn the trick Although
any President has a real interest in
the matter, the election of Speaker is
peculiarly a question for the House.
Any interference would be resented, and
direct or indirect intervention by Mr.
Kennedy, If it should fail, could well
result in disaster for his legislative pro-
gram, which is already in trouble
enough.
This no doubt explains the Presi-
dents answer when he was asked at his
last news conference whether he would
be likely to express preference, pub
licly or privately. Mr.. Kennedy'S re-
Spouse was that it would be "unwiSe"
for anyone outside the House to attempt
to indicate preference. Whatever the
Presidents personal desire, he never
spoke truer word.
