DR.. Preston Wade, New York

Presidents sprained back last
spring, flew here to make what
White House Press Secretary

he is making good progress.

Race Pledged
By Rockefeller

ALBANY, N. Y. Dec. %
(AP) Gov. Nelson A. Rookie
feller is keeping a door open
for a possible bid for the Re-
publican nomination for Pres
ident in 1864.
At the same time, he is be-
ginning a formal campaign
with a declaration that his
sole object is reelection as
Governor Of the State"
But the Governor, mentioned
frequently as a potential Re-
publican nominee for President
in 1864. declined to pledge to
serve a full, four-year term
if reelected.
Concerning the possibility
that failure to make such a
pledge could cost him votes,
he said:
II wouldn't know, to be per-
fectly honest"
Republican State Chairman
L. Judson Morhouse predicted
that Gov. Rockefeller would
win by "a substantially better
plurality than in 1885," when
he defeated the incumbent
Governor, Democrat w. Averell
Hartman, by $4,000 votes.
Gov. Rockefeller, Mr.. Nor
house and several other G. o. P.
State leaders held a joint news
conference yesterday after an
all-day conference to plan the
1862 election campaign.
Gov. Rockefeller's sta n d
against a pledge to serve four
years was a continuation of a
policy he adopted previously.
II think it's very difficult
for anybody to determine in
advance a course of action in
a political situation. I think
a great many people make COM
mitments in advance which ..
they find very difficult to full
fill," he said.

ministration would have rough
Sleeding in Congress.
Senator Dirksen was a little
more cautious in his political
estimates.
While he said he has found
in his travels a definite con-
servative trend" Senator Dirk
sen added that it was mo Wild
fire" sweeping the prairies.
But he agreed with Mr.. Hal
leck'S contention that younger
people are becoming more in
terested in Republican policies
than they have been in the re-
cent past.
In a lengthy discussion of
President Kennedy's projected
request for broad authority to
negotiate tariff reductions,
Senator Dirksen indicated he
would support only a one-year
trial program. He left little
doubt he thinks Republicans
will insist on inserting escape
clauses to protect threatened
industries.

extreme right nor the extreme
left"
There is a need and a place
for conservatives in our scheme
of political things" he said
But I would separate the real
conservatives from the extreme
right wingers who feel that they
have the only answers to our
problems-those who insist on
dealing in black and white when
all the worlds problems are
gray"
Senate Republican Leader
Dirksen told a news conference
yesterday he agrees with House
Republican Leader Halleck that
there is a revival of conserva-
tism which could affect demo-
cratic control of Congress in
next years elections.
Mr.. Halleck previously hao
said a wave of conservatism
apparent throughout the coun-
try" might sweep the G. o. p
into control of the House.

All the survivors seemed to
be in fair condition except Nc
Mahon and Johnston. Both of
McMahon's hands were covered
with third-degree burns, and
his face. arms, legs and feet
were burned. In the water the
burns had glowed warmly, but
when the men lifted him up
on deck he felt as If his whole
body were on fire. He took off
some of his clothes to relieve
the friction on his burned skin.
Despite the terrible surface
heat. however, he became so
cold that he had to put the
wet clothing back on.
Johnston was alternately un-
conscious and wracked by spells
of vomiting. He did not speak,
and the others were at loss to

PALM BEACH, Fla, Dec. %.
President Kennedy called a
conference of key aides today to
work with him on his January
economic message to Congress.
The President was striving to
whip into preliminary shape
during the holiday season here
the three major messages that
normally go from the White
House to Congress in January
state-of the Union, budget and
economic.
With his budget message
completed and good progress
reported on drafting the state
Of the Union message, he was
giving major attention this
afternoon to the economic
report that will go to Congress
after the other two major mes
Sages.
Secretary Of Agriculture
Freeman was flying here from
Washington to join the Presi-
dent and a group of aides who
have been working with him
here for the past two days.
Budget Work Completed
Treasury Secretary Dillon
participated in the review and
drafting session yesterday as
work was completed on the
1868 fiscal year budget, ex-
pected to be balanced at more
than $92 billion - and there
were some indications it might
be closer to $93 billion.
Combining relaxation and
work at his borrowed ocean,
front home here, free from
many of the routine distrac-
tions so hard to get away from
in his White House office, the
President was understood to be
pleased with progress on
charting his 1862 program.
Mr.. Salinger said Mr.. Free
man would work with the Pres
ident on sections of the eco
nomic message dealing with the
farm problems.
Others in the group called to
confer with the President this
afternoon included Walter
Heller, chairman of the Council
of Economic Advisers; Budget
Bureau Director David Bell,
Theodore Sorensen, the Presi-
dents special counsel and chief
speech-writing aide, and Myer
Feldman, deputy to Mr.. Soren-
sen.
Mr.. Freeman and Mr.. Heller
planned to fly back to Wash
ington tonight.
Others in the group working
here this week, including Law
renee O'Brien. special assistant
to the President in charge of
congressional liaison, plan to
return to Washington Saturday.
Mr.. Salinger said.
He said the group~expects to
get back to work tomorrow on
the state-of -the-U Union message.
They hope to take back a pre-
liminary draft of the Presidents
legislative recommendations as
the basis for consultations with
Democratic congressional lead
ers in Washington next week.
To Remain in Florida
The President himself is not
expected to meet with the con-
greSsional leaders until the
week after next. He is ex-
pected to remain in Palm Beach
through most of next week, and
there are no plans for congress
sional leaders to come here.

checkup yesterday, Mr.. Ken
nedy was described as "in ex-
cellent health and fully able to

inquiry from the Hagikaze
about the fire he radioed to
the other three ships that he
had sunk a PIT boat, Wild
cheers swept through the Shi-
gure. Their mission a COM

ers returned to Rabaul.
Though hurled about by the
crash 1t. John F. Kennedy,
Ensign Ross, Seaman Mauer
and Radioman Mcguire were
still on the bow. which was
kept afloat by its watertight
compartments. Ed Mauer was
thrown to the deck, bruising his
right shoulder. John Mcguire
was flung out Of the cockpit
back against the day-room can
opy. His helmet was pushed
down on his brow, but he pried
it off in time to see the ANA
girl passing through behind
him.
AS the impact Of the de-
stroyer tilted the deck sharply
to port, Ensign Ross let go OF
the loose bow gun for fear 1t
would topple overheard and
carry him to the bottom. He
mistook the first flare of
flames for a bright searchlight.
Thinking the enemy was about
to fire down on them, he
slipped off the starboard side
into the water and hid in the
shade Of the hull. Gasoline
fumes choked him, and he
tainted.
Pulling himself up from the
corner of the cockpit, 1t. Ken
nedy's first thought was that
a gasoline tank might explode
from the heat. Everybody in
to the water" he yelled.
AS the fire on the water
around the boat subsided, 1t.
Kennedy concluded that there
would be no explosion. He and

man Mauer swan back to the

Mrs. Herbert Frederick Rapp

Road Cut Hits Three Sisters Bridqe

An unexpected hitch in plan
ming the Three Sisters Island
Bridge poses a problem for the
District Highway Department.
In its recent approval of the
District budget, Congress de-
leted highway officials request
to build two single-lane road
ways connecting the bridge
with Reservoir road.
The $250,0O0 budget item had
been approved by the Senate
but was disapproved by the
House. In conference the item
was dropped.
AS a result, District highway
planners are faced with this
problem: If the bridge is built
without the roadways to Res
ervoir road, motorists crossing
the bridge from Virginia will
have to continue onto the new
Potomac River freeway all the
way into Foggy Bottom before
they can turn off the freeway.
With roadWays to Reservoir
road, motorists would be able
to move across the bridge and
then into the Georgetown Uni
versity area and onto nearby
streets.
If the two roadways are not
built now, and later it is de-
cided they are needed - and
highway officials say they un-
doubtedly will be needed-it
may cost an additional $780,
900 to build them.
The two roadWays would
traverse park land but park
officials have agreed to the
Reservoir road connections.
The National Capital Planning
Commission also has given it's
approval.
Opposition to the Reservoir |
road links comes from those
