Theoter Saved

Today announcement was made that
the famous old ivory-and-gold Stanford
White-designed Casino Theater has been
saved from probable demolition through
the efforts Of Mrs. Warren, and the gen.
erosity Of Mrs. Louis Brugiere, formerly
Of Washington.
The gala reopening Of the theater
on July IL will be attended by all of
Newport society, and the summer program
includes variety such as the Boston Uni
verSity Chamber Orchestra and the Duke
Ellington Chamber Jazz Group.
Newport visitors this summer can see,
under the auspices Of the preservation
society, the Wanton-L -Lyman-Hazard house
built in 1875, the oldest house in Newport
and one of the finest Jacobean houses in
the country; Trinity Church, Newport's
first important 18th century building, in
style and feeling much like Christopher
Wren's London churches; whitehall, the
house Of George Berkeley, British philos-
opher and Anglican official; the Nichols
Wanton-Hunter house, the finest surviv-
ing house of Newport's great era Of
prosperity before the American Revolution;
Touro Synagogue, the oldest synagogue in
America; White Horse Tavern, for lunch
and dinner; the Brick Market, and of
course, The Elms and The Breakers.
Some of the old mansions have escaped
demolition through the efforts of private
individuals. One Of the most famous, Beau
lieu, was bought three years ago by the
former Chief Of Protocol and Mrs. Wiley
T. Buchanan of Washington. The old Vic
torian house, first owned by william Wal

Obituaries on Presidential Possibilities

ALBANY. N. Y.-The obit-
uaries on Nelson Rockefeller
as q presidential candidate
have tended to overstress his
moribundity and overlook his

powerful force within the
Republican Party in 1864.
Running for President Is a

The most significant Of these
Is money, the essential fuel
Of politics. Money is normally
available in direct proportion
to a candidates chances, but
the supply has not d.
minished with the decline In
Gov. Rockefeller's political
fortunes.
Money means that he can
get good men to stay en-
Enthusiastically with him, dig
roots into the primary
States, and endure the rigors
Of a campaign against heavy
odds. The top party figures,
who have regulations to pro-

with a loser, but the Rookie

with talented men, who show
no disposition to leave their
employer In his hour of need.

Battle of Decade for the Tax Bill

might not have been affected
so much If there had been no
talk at all Of q tax cut. but
now many things are up in
the air in business because
the new rates will make
many q change IN plans.
The most powerful argu-
ment which the administra-
ton has for the tax cut Is
that not only will extra
funds be provided for some
consumer spending but, In
a ddition, there would be
funds for investment. Thus,
the tax savings to persons
with ineom es Of $4,000 9
year or over would give them
$3.6 billion to spend. BusI-
ness would have at least 50
to SIS billion more. These
sums are spread over two
years. but they can have the
effect Of stimulating the
economy, even If only tempo
rarily.
Is it worth taking the risk
Of holding up the tax bill by
insisting on priority for the
civil rights bill, which could
get all tied up in a filibuster7
The administration privately
doesn't favor such q gamble
and would prefer to see the
tax bill passed before the end
Of 1868. but 1t bly,
would never say so publicly
for political reasons.
Many members Of the Sen.
ate feel the tax bill requires
the most careful considera-
ton, and there are important
differences noted already be-
tween the measure that has
passed the House and the
one to be formulated by the
Senate Finance Committee,
which Is holding hearing on
1t now. If these are concluded
by the end Of November,
there would still be about a
month for debate.
The argument Of the other
side Is that the civil rights
bill should be passed now,
because the tax bill will have
considerable pressure behind
1t in January or February
anyway to push it to passage,
while the civil rights bill
might drift along for many
months without action. It is,
on the whole one Of the most
critical legislative battles In
congressional history.

CHARLES BARTLETT
Rockefeller as q Force in PARTY

Gov. Rockefeller's efforts
and expenditures already
have comm ence d In New
Hampshire, but these alone
will not suffice, since Senator
Goldwater clearly intends to
apply them in equal measure.
The appeal Of New Hamp-
shire for the Governor is
that 1t will force q confron-
tation on the issues which
separate him from the Sena-
tor, and his confidence runs
strong that he can make his
positions prevail with the
voter.
The Governor has a taste
for issues, but 1t is not al
ways q com m on taste. In
contrast to the Senator, who
likes to keep his issues vague
and popular, the Governor
tends to focus on details.
His success will hang heav-
lily upon an easing Of the
public's disapproval Of his
remarriage. His recent APP
pearances and private sur
veys have encouraged a hope
that this sentiment is fading.
He is securing responses
from individuals and crowds
that seem com parable to
those he enjoyed before he
took the controversial step
and a confidence is growing
that the politicians may be
more sensitive on this matter
than the people.
It Is an uphill struggle, but
1t has assumed the quality of
a crusade in which the Gov
ernor's personal fortunes are
closely linked to an aversion
against leaving the Repubn-
can Party to its right wing.
In this spirit he and his peo-
pie seem convincingly deter
mined to contend against the
odds.

Completion of Action on Program
This Year Held Vital to Economy
DAVID LAWRENCE

The battle Of the decade Is
on. The way It goes In the
next 10 weeks could make
the difference next year be-
tween recession and prosper
ity. This could affect the
outcome Of the 1864 presi-
dental election.
It's q battle that's taking
place behind the scenes in
Congress, as preSSures are
coming in from every side to
pass or defeat in the next
two-and-a-half months leg
islation which Is designed to
reduce taxes and revise tax
rules, to impose restrictions
on customer relations in pub
lie accommodations in con-
nection with racial dlscrimi-
nation, to raise the limit Of
the public debt and to act on
q neglected group of appro-
priation bills needed to carry
on the Federal government
itSelf-all this before the
current session ends in De-
cember.
There Is no evidence yet
that anybody Is stalIlng on
anything, but delaying tao
tics Of any kind may not be
necessary because there are
so many important bills piled
up that even the norm al
q mount Of time spent in
hearings and debates will
crowd the calendar and post
pone final action on some Of
the measures until the jan
uary session Of Congress.
The big question Is: Which
measures will be delayed I'M
til January and which ones
will get through and become
law by the end Of the year?
The average citizen isn't
familiar with the technical
procedures in Congress that
take 50 much time. Certainly
anything as important as the
new tax bill shouldn't be
considered in haste. Likewise,
the new civil rights measure
is the most important in this
field that has been before
Congress in more than 100
years. The foreign aid pro-
gram is highly important,

Ex-Presidents Stand Viewed as Letting

must be spent with wavering

He did not accept such q
grind for himself at 50 and is
very much less likely to ac-
cept it at 70 for the sake Of
an uncertain result. It OBJ
viously would be a great deal
to ask Of him and Mrs. FL
senhower, whose hostess role
would be important.
The Eisenhower argument
that his hands-off stance
contributes to party unity Is
less convincing. 1t actually
leaves Republican moderates
liable to the same frustra-
tions the conservatives say
they have experienced.
The circumstances which
cast Gen. Eisenhower as the

to Senator Goldwater at the

well known. The Senator
sprang into the lead when
Gov. Rockefeller faltered-no

Former President Eisen-

ty" In the contest for the
Republican nomination for
President enables President
Kennedy to pre-empt the VIZ
tai center. There Is no place
Mr.. Kennedy would rather
be.
The Eisenhower course is
destined to end by offering
the country q clear choice of
q conservative candidate for
President-Senator Goldwa-
ter. What 1t cannot do in
compensation Is to force Mr..
Kennedy into a comparably
liberal role.
The territory left Of Sena-
tor Goldwater includes the
center. 1t may not seem so to
some ardent Goldwater ad-
mirers, but all the evidence
suggests that most Ameri-

It was Gen. Eisenhower's

problem is that the Job Of

votes. The county chairmen
respec t the party organiza-
ton, the conservatives are a
weak force in New York poll
tics, and the odds are strong
that the Governor will be
able to hang onto all but a
few Of the delegates as long
as he remains in contention.
He also retains the asset of
energy and q willingness to
use 1t In the consuming game
Of presidential politics. The
Governor has no illusions
about his present standing in
the race, but he seems fully
determined to see 1t through
and stimulated by the neces-
sity to rise, like the Phoenix
bird, from his own ashes.
His new role as the central
figure In a crusade to hold
the Republican Party in the
main stream Of contemporary
politics is clearly more ap-
pealing to him than the old
role which required that he
bid, somewhat OBVIOUSLY, for
favor with both Of the d.
verging Republican factions.
His associates believe that he
will prove a more compelling
and persuasive figure in the
sincerity Of this new stance.
These assets will have
their test in New Hampshire,
whose primary will provide
either a revival or a final in
terment Of Gov. Rockefeller's
presidential ambitions. If he
can beat Senator Goldwater
there, he can pursue him
into California, where the
g. o. P.'s disarray holds
hopes for anyone who will
spend the time and money to
wage an extensive campaign.

affect prices or the purchas-

bring the much-talked-about

What will really get
through? It's anybody's guess
today. but certainly the tax
bill means more politically to
the Kennedy administration
than anything else being
considered by Congress. A
civil rights bill can be ham
died next session. and. while
Negro leaders would be dis
appointed by the delay, this
unfavorable attitude would
be largely Modified If the leg
iSlation is enacted next year
before the presidential cleo
ton.
The administration doesn't
venture to express q pref
erence between the tax and
civil rights bills, for this
could antagonize the Negro
voters. But any realist who
knows the situation on Capt.
toll Hill must concede that, II
the tax bill is showed over
into 1864. 1t might be several
months before it would be
enacted. This could mean
that the taxpayers wouldn't
feel the benefits Of the tax
cut in their tax installments
paid in April or perhaps even
in June. Such a delay would
have an adverse effect on the
national economy. DR.. Walter
