HoLYoKE. Mass. Sept. g.
~The Kennedy McC Cormack de-
bate in Holyoke last night only
proved that second debates.
like second thoughts, are not
so good.
In the first encounter in
South Boston, Eddie McCor-
mack played lion to Teddy
Kennedy's early Christian mar
tyr. 1t was a startling poll
tical spectacle, and Teddy
rushed off into the night with
: his hurt feelings.
Last night. when it was over,
Eddie rushed over to shake
Teddy's hand. and Teddy had
no reason not to.
q Ten days ago in South Bos-
ton, Eddie told Teddy that il
Teddy's name were Edward
Moore, his candidacy for the
Senate would be q joke. Teddy
was ready to answer him last
night, but the charge was never
made. He answered it anyway,
Eddie's change of style had
apparently been dictated by
more than. q change of scene.
On August 26, the arena was
South Boston, Eddie's home
town and the Brooklyn Of the

itants are not too squeamish
about a little mayhem in the
electoral process. Last night,
they met here in Holyoke, a
starchy Western Massachusetts,

ocrats always carry their hats
in their hands.

Teddy had made some
changes, too. In South Boston,
he was the lonely internation-

partisans who crowded the
hall to remember what time it
was in South Wet Nam and
Berlin. Last night, Teddy ,

Eddie had acceded to Teddy's |
pleas that they discuss the
issues. He maintains that the
paramount issue is that Of ex-
perience and qualifications, but
the Speakers nephew told the
Presidents brother at the out
set they should leave families
out Of it.
He showed but traces of his

Mr.. Stair said the improve

Gen. Decker said, however,
that it would take almost five
years-at the present rate of
spending-to fully modernize
the Army. He said the original
procurement budget request of
the Army was cut by 1925 mil

cedure. After bookkeeping ad-
justments, Gen. Decker said,
the Army procurement request
of $2,463, 000,0 900 represented a
reduction of $170 million from
the current fiscal year.
Mr.. Stair said Army strength
was set by the administration

The prospect of extortion
through strikes or threats Of
strikes is constantly before
industries, large and small.
AS for investment, bus
ineSsmen ask themselves
whether interest rates are
ever going to come down and
whether these may even sky
rocket upward in the next
few years. They are told that
the international balance of
payments is the cause Of the
trouble. Yet exports are high.
They read that the Kennedy
administration intends to
penalize American companies
that have built plants abroad
to compete with Europeans.
Yet Europeans are encour-
aged by tariff reductions to
come here to compete with
American companies. Bust
ness is told by our Govern

underdeveloped countries
and, in effect, to abandon or
disrupt profitable operations
in Europe.
Inside America, the case
that business has against the

serious. Depreciation allow

has attempted to throw a
bone to business by adyocat-

is trifling and, because it is
limited in scope. it doesn't
touch the fundamental all

Mr.. Nixon's appeal to Demo-

Little thought seems to be

where is the money coming

Scant attention has been
paid here to the true condi-

Slight changes downward in

hazy predictions are made
about the growth of national

however, is one of confidence

with our own Allies. Some
times it seems as If there

Richard Nixon will get a sig

end on the depth of his trou-

1t will come from the TO-
000-member California Re-
publican Assembly meeting at
Berkeley to consider a guber-
material subcommittee re-
port on the available candi-
dates. All three of the ma
jor aspirants appeared before
the subcommittee: Mr.. Nix
on, who originally disdained
era Endorsement; Assembly,
man Joseph c. Shell and for
mer 1t. Gov. Harold Powers.
Mr.. Nixon is expected to
prevail, but the question is
by how much. In addition,
Mr.. Shell, an outspoken con-
sentative, is threatening the
kind of floor fight which
leaves hard feelings in its
wake.
Mr.. Shell has declared he
would do everything I can"
to win era Endorsement and
has made the most of Mr..
Nixon's GOODNESS. Yet it is
hard to fault Mr.. Nixon's
strategy of treading softly,
preaching unity and trying
to avoid anything that might
mean a breakaway of some
party support in the cleo
ton.
His era effort is typical.
He suggested that since there
had been so much criticism
of Democratic slate-making,

was more interested, he said,
