This could become the monu-
ment of the Kennedy Administra-
ton.
The public school issue Is onlv
one of many areas in which the
Administration has sounded re-

daily.
Perhaps Of equal consequence is
the manner in which The White
House remained aloof from the
leadership fight in the House Of
Representatives. ongres m a n
Richard Boiling of Missouri de-
served better Of the Administra-
ton if only as a reward for the
yeoman work he did last session,
at Sam Rayburn's side, in trying
to curtail the power Of the House
Rules Committee.
But Boiling is by no means the
only victim Of White House in
gratitude. The case Of Chester
BOwles, to whom the Admins
tratiOn was deeply In debt, comes
to mind.
The apparent maneuvering to
make McGeorge Bundy Secretary
Of State is also a subject of some
fascination among the Capitals

The Administration has also
managed to make many Of the
Senate and House New Frontiers
men" feel as If they were not
wanted.
Instead 1t has worked most
closely with those it supposedly
opposed. The Attorney General
rushed to the Capitol to visit old
Judge" Howard Smith right after
the Rules Committee fight and the
Judge was touched.
This tactic of working so hard
to propitiate ones opponents may
come under the heading Of smart
politics. But in view Of the results
there may be limitations. If you
want public school legislation you
do not go along with John McCor-
mack as Speaker Of the House.
If you want civil rights legis-
latiOn you do not put Carl Al
bert Of Oklahoma next In line of
succession.
OF course, II you do not intend
to push for this legislation then
these men are handy to have
around. They can always be blam-
ed for not doing what they never
said they intended to do.
Popularity is a sometimes thing.
Franklin d. Roosevelt remained
popular with the majority for Is
years. But his popularity was
based, at least in part, on the ac-
compliments Of the early days OF
his Administration not alone on his
personal charm.

IL Is solldly based. Is the President
popular because the issues are
blurred? Is he popular because he
does not stir even a mild domestic,
controversy? That did not bother
him during the campaign when
he telephoned the Rev. Martin
Luther King. Is it his handling of
the German crisis? Is the Presi-
dent popular because there is, for
the moment, no other national fig
ure who challenges his popularity?
All these are possibilities and
there is, at least, one more-that
the President and his close advis-
ers believe the national mood con-
tinues to be one Of relaxation and
contentment and he responds to it.
In 1860 we were told that this was
"complacency', officially induced
by General Eisenhower, who was
pictured as a rather amiable old
fellow living in a state Of euphoria.
Now we are being told that, In
view of the external threat Of Com
munism, we must make haste
slowly at home. If a Republican
Administration counsels taking the
'middle-of-the-road" that spells
stagnation. But If the Kennedy Ad-
ministration abandons nearly its
entire domestic program, what
should it be called?
have never been entirely con-
WINGED that President Eisenhower
did misread the signs Of his times.
The nation was tired after the
years of depression, Hitlerism and
war. 1t needed enough time to di-
gest the social reforms of The New
Deal. The increasing economic
prosperity did not contribute to
any domestic sense Of urgency.
But q nation cannot standstil
indefinitely on such a social plat
eau, without losing ground.
While there is no doubt the DEM
ocrats exaggerated the inadequac-
les Of the Eisenhower Administra-
ton, this is not automatic proof
that the Kennedy appraisal Of the
situation at home Is now correct
or adequate.
The reports coming from Palm
Beach during the recent holidays
sound almost as If the President
himself yearns for the good, old
days Of Eisenhower 'complacency"
when to do-nothing was considered
doing enough.
Using the word progressive"
rs q substitute for liberal"
hardly conceals the fact that the
Administration has decided not
to push for Its public school aid
bill, including teachers salary In
creases or school construction. A
college aid program Is needed,
but that does not meet the prob
lem at the secondary and ele-
mentary level
To further delay the federal
school aid program means that
