Circumstances and the Nominee

enough TO lose the election
for Mr.. Kennedy.
The question Of experience
and training for the office of
President Is bound TO become
q more and more important
factor In forming q judgment
on the candidates. A m an
who has sat in the inner
councils Of Government for
eight years as the Vice Presi-
dent Of the United States
and who has become init
mately acquainted with
m any Of the complicated
matters Of international and
domestic policies at firsthsnd
will have q big asset to start
with. If Gov. Rockefeller had
not alienated so many voters
by his divorce and re-mar-
rage, he would have been
pointed to with favor by rea-
son Of his two-term expert
ence as head Of the govern
ment Of the most populous
State In the Union.
The question that may be
expected to enter the minds
Of many q voter after the
conventions have been held
Is whether q President with
four years Of experience isn't
q better bet, even with his
mistakes, than a man with
out any experience at all In
handling top policy matters
This dilemma would incline
many delegates at the Repub-
lican National Convention
toward former Vice President
Nixon.
II the country, however, Is
in the mood to demand q
change-either because Of an
economic recession that may
emerge by next year, or dis
satisfaction with foreign pol
icy in general and the state
of Americas relations with
Nikita Khrushchev in par
ticular - the stock Of the
Arizona Senator will rise per-
ceptibly. and he could be
nominated irrespective Of the
argument that might be
made on the significance OF
the Nixon vote in 1860 or the
experience" factor.
So II the political prophets
Of today can correctly analyze
what the mood Of the electo-
rate will be In the spring and
the early summer months OF
next year, they will have the
key to the outcome Of the
Republican National Conven-
ton.

Under one set Of circum-
stances, Richard Nixon could
be nominated for the Presi-
dency by the Republican Ma
tional Convention in 1864
and under another set Of cir
cumstances, Barry Goldwater
could be named.
A final choice, as It looks
now, will depend on the
dominance Of particular is
sues eight months hence. In
deed, the delegates them
selves viii hardly know the
prevalent trend Of public
opinion until convention time
is almost at hand.
For the Republican presi-
Dental nomination will not
be decided Just on the basis
of popularity polls or perso-
n ality charm as appraised
inside the Republican Party.
The decision will be related
directly to the mood Of the
whole country in the summer
of Iceland not Just the
Republican mood. The dele
gates, Of course, will have to
be the judges Of the mood Of
the country and Of the can
didate who fits it best.
Which mood then would
bring about a Goldwater or q
Nixon nomination. Senator
Goldwater's strength today
arises largely from his hard
hitting campaign against the
Kennedy administration. He
is trying earnestly to con-
vince the country that there
ought to be q change. Almost
every speech or statement he
makes meets with instant ap-
proval among millions Of
voters who feel deeply that
the Kennedy administration
has failed them. This is
called "the negative vote" It
doesn't concern itself too
much with alternative pol
icies or causes but firmly
insists that q change Of adj
ministration Is the first and
most important goal to be
achieved.
The strength Of former
Vice President Nixon, on the
other hand, comes into focus
when the assets and habili-
ties of the Kennedy admin
istration are added up and
the Republican analysts be-
gin to calculate whether the
President can be defeated for
reelection.

Behind Vatican Councils Work

the things that divide them
have swollen to fearsome
proportions by the encrusta-
tons Of age and habit. Re
newal-of both Catholicism
and Protestantism-will pro-
coed with small and hesitant
steps. but 1t II m owe m emit
nevertheless. and there Is ex-
element in the air. The d.
alogue in the Vatican's corri-
doris between men Of the Pa
pal Church and men Of the
Protestant Church Is not
dwindling but growing in in
tensity. Among other things
a common English Bible
could come out Of this, and
perhaps far more important,
a declaration from the Vati-
can In support OF full free
dom Of religious conscience
for all believers.
But deep in the fastness Of
this great conformation lies
the bedrock Of the schism-
the difference In the sources
Of revelation. Yet here, at the
heart Of the difficulty, there
is q universal tool at hand. It
Is the science Of archaeology
and modern Biblical re-
search. With this tool the
rock Of difference can yet be
taken apart, chip by chip,
and the original and common
ground rediscovered d, on
which all Christians may
stand as they stood long ago.

Castro to Raise Prices,
Start Flood Control

HAVANA, Oct. 20 (AP).-
Prime Minister Fidel Castro
has announced that his gov
eminent is raising the price Of
beef, poultry, beer and Gig
arettes to help pay FOR a 5000
million flood control program
in hurricane-devastated ORR
ente Province.
In a three-hour television
report last night on Hurricane
Flora, Mr.. Castro also accused
the United States of withhold
ing weather information from
Cuban meteorologistS during
the storm.
He said q charge by the
United States that Cuba had
refused to allow flights Of
United States hurricane spot
ter planes over Cuba was "ab-
solutely false"
How can they dare say this
when they don't ask permits
sion to fly their spy planes
over Cuba every day?" Mr..
Castro asked.
Demands End Of Blockade
He demanded lifting Of the
United States economic block
ade because Of the hurricane
disaster.
What we only ask" Mr.,
Castro said, 'is that they cease
a blockade on a country which
has suffered a disaster Of this
kind"
The prime minister said q
massive public works program
for Oriente Province in Eastern
Cuba, will include dams and
flood control systems so there
will never be a repetition Of
Flora's floods, which ruined
crops in the rich Cauto and
Contramaestre River valleys.

sugar crop, Cuba's principal

ERIC SEYAREID

The second session Of the
Vatican Council Is now deep
in its work and interested
observers everywhere seize
upon each formal statement
that emerges, each reported
portion Of ebate. each
leak" to form their own es-
timation Of what may ulti-
mately come from this GEN.
tury's formidable exercise in
ecumenism, In universalism.
Impatience may poorly
comport with the profundity
of the issues and with the
age and massive bulk of the
Roman Catholic Church, but
men no longer have genera
lions at their disposal; time,
like space, has been terribly
foreshortened. The Council
Of Trent, four centuries ago,
could spend 1S uninterrupted
years at its work Of revitaliz-
ing the Roman Church to
face the force of Protestant
ism. But this council has no
such luxury Of time in the
face Of communism, the ex-
plosion Of non-C Christian
populations and the inner
debilitation Of the entire
Christian establishment in
this age Of worldly furies.
The Council Of Trent be-
gan with an impetus toward
re-absorbing the Protestants
but quickly became q process
of inner renewal, which ulti-
mately became, however, one
Of restoration. The herald Of
this Vatican Council as pro-
elaine d by the late Pope
John was Christian Unity,
but the process has become
chiefly "aggiornamento" or
renewal. This has to be the
road, no doubt, toward the
far distant goal Of unity, but
the roadblockS are formida-
BILE. The most immediate is
the rigidity Of that ultra
conservative, m a ssive bu-
reaucracy, the Roman Curia.
The Council Of Trent tried
but faile d to ventilate the
Curia. It will require q con-
tinued act Of will by Pope
Paul as well as the continued
spirit Of the late Pope John
if this council is truly to lib
eralize the Curia.
1t is the nature Of any es-
Establishment to be at least q
little out Of date. If the
Church became modernized to
the point Of worldliness it
would betray its very mean
ing. 1t must constantly seek
a true balance within a per-
manent ollie m m q; but the
feeling has grown nearly ev-
erywhere that today the
Christian Church as a whole
has fallen far, far behind
events and the needs and
thoughts Of men. It seems
the elimination Of a process
now several centuries old, a
period In which the vitality
of the Church has faded
further and further from the
quality Of its first millennium.
Perhaps, too, Christianity
has r ached and retreated
from its outermost physical
limits. Only some % per cent
Of humanity is Christi n,
and the countervailing fore
es, including the great popu-
lation growth in the East
and the spread Of Islam in

He said beef would be raised
to SIS cents q pound and poultry

Mr.. Castro said the hurricane
which swept the island two
weeks ago had probably taken
hundreds more lives than the
1926 previously announced.
More than 100000 persons
lost all their possessions. There
was great damage to crops and
cattle, he said, but he gave only

He expressed appreciation for
relief sent by foreign countries
and said only a United States
offer of help was rejected. This
was q reference to an offer
from the United States Red
Cross.
In his speech, on the eve Of
last October's missile crisis, Mr..
Castro covered many areas, but
saved his fury for the United

telligence Agency with planting
a bomb in the Cuban freighter

Summer travel bookings are
ahead Of last year by a wide
margin, and nowhere is the
boom more evident than to
those areas-Hawaii, Mexico,
and Israel--to which group air
fares are available without re-
striction.
This is revealed in the quar-
terly select survey Of the Ameri-
can Society Of Travel Agents.
Group fares without affinity
provision or restriction against
travel agency solicitation of
groups have been introduced
fairly recently to the three
areas mentioned.
Sales to Israel, according to
the travel agents participating
in the survey, have increased
by an average Of IS per cent, to
Hawaii by 20 per cent and to
Mexico by rs per cent over
last summer.
Participants noted that the
charter flight craze" had
spread to the Middle West, the
West Coast and throughout
Canada, indicating that air
travellers to Europe were more
and more frequently treating
the charter rates as basic fares
and the regulation restricting
their application to affinity"
groups as a joke.

One of the most notable is
the famed snake dance per-
formed by the Hopi tribe
on their reservation near Hote-

used by the gyrating dancers
as they spell out the ancient
prayer for rain.
Visitors are welcome, but
cautioned not to photograph

Another tourist attraction is
the inter-tribal Indian celebra-

Two of the most colorful folk
rituals of the year occur In
September when Illinois enacts
the wedding of the wine and

its William Tell pageant.
The wedding is performed by
a colony Of wine makers in
the town of Nauvoo during the
grape harvest. The custom
stems from an old Frenc h

cheese in a cave and didn't

to find that it had turned blue
