Rockefeller has everything to
gain and nothing to lose by de-
claring himself a candidate for
the Republican presidential
nomination as he did Thursday.
Whether or not the New York
Governor is successful in get
ting the nomination in 1864, the
lessons Of national politics
would seem to indicate that any
one prominent enough to try
for the nomination in 1864 is
likely to try again in 1868 If
his own party should lose.
But there's another probable
reason why Mr.. Rockefeller has
decided to make an active cam
paign irrespective of whether ne
is likely to win.
1t is that for several months
now the Rockefeller candidacy
has been frowned upon by many
women voters. Previously, he
was easily the front runner.
The explanation of his drop IN
popularity usually given is the
fact that the New York COVER
nor has divorced and then almost
Immediately afterward remar
ried. This occasioned widespread
comment, and political analysts
have referred to the expressions
of disapproval noted in pre-
viouS political campaigns when
one Of the candidates happened
to be a divorced man.
In this instance, however, the
adverse criticism of many wo-
men voters has centered not
only on the divorce and remar-
riage aspects but on the legal
arrangements for divided Gus
tody Of the young children in
volved.
What was the New York gov
ernor to do? Should be accept
any such judgment on his per-
sonal affairs and abandon ma
tional politics, or should he ex-
press himself unequivocally on
public questions and issues and
let the American people judge
whether he is capable enough
to be their president, thus sub
ordinating personal issues?
From Mr.. Rockefeller's stand
point, the latter thesis lakes
sense, because to abondon the
campaign for the nomination
might imply that he accepted
personal aspects of the situa-
ton as controlling and that he
felt the electorate would not
Judge him fairly on his actual
qualifications to handle the Of
flee of president.
But whether the New York
governor has made a political
mistake on the personal side
is something that might be view
ed differently in 1868 than 1864,
especially if someone else is
nominated this time and doesn't
make a good race and if the is
sues four years later turn toward
those on which Mr.. Rockefel-
Ter will have made an effective
exposition. Time often heals
many a political ailment.
While Mr.. Rockefeller's stra-
tegy can therefore be analysed
as logical from his own stand
point, the biggest error he has
made - one which may really
cost him the nomination in 1864
lis the position he has taken
on public issues. He leans to-
ward the so-called .liberal''
side, and that doesn't happa to
be the majority sentiment = the
Republican party today. He
would be forgiven for even this
by some voters but, unfortunate
ly, he recently said, in effect,
The chronicle., 1963-11-08

For years the Federal Re-
serve Board, under the watch
full direction Of its conservative
chairman, William McCheSney
Martin Jr., has tried to follow
a policy Of leaning against the
wind" in its monetary policy.
With the Fed always there to
act as an ultimate brake on in
flation, conservatives have been
able to breathe easily even when
the spenders have been in the
saddle in the White House and
on Capitol Hill.
Alas, the day of the conser-
vatives' feeling that everything
at the Fed is under control may
be coming to the end. For, ac-
cording to the news from Wash
ington, President Kennedy in
tends to choose Seymour E. Har-
riS, professor Of economics at
Harvard University, to fill the
vacancy on the Federal Reserve
Board that will come in January
Of 1864 when the current term
Of j. L. Robertson expires.
Professor Harris is one Of our
better-known Keynesian econo-
mists. What worries conserva-
tives is his opinion that the key
to productivity is to be found in
an expansionist money policy,
not in chronological gains that
make investment attractive
without pumping water into the
consumers dollar.
In this connection Professor
Harris analysis Of American
economic development in IN e
New Deal-Fair Deal period OF
our history is pertinent.

whether he will accept the judg-
ment of the convention on the
platform and nominee. His
speeches prior to the national
convention advocating particular
reforms or changes in govern
mental policy will receive much
more dispassionate considcra ion
inside his own party if he an
nounces that he will support the
national ticket.

Any failure Of the AT IAN

only lay all Southeast Asia o3en

wise American strategy to halt
such aggressions by limited COM

t~ernatives to this policy would
be to submit to local aggressionS
or to face major war on the
Korean scale - or beyond.
Moreover, a collapse in South
Wet Nam could, quite simply,
destroy the Kennedy Ad-7iais-
tration. Careful and persistent
inquiries have convinced me, for
one, that the United G-ateS nei-
ther ordered nor directly par

Of Diem. But nothing can alter
the fact that Washington long
had been deliberately shaking

in the hope Of thus forcing him

THE PROS NEVER HAVE made the
grade financially. George Preston Marshall
failed In the mid-192Os when he owned a
team in the old American Professional Bas-
ketball League. Christian Heurich, jr, had
go at 1t. Then came the Washington Caps
following World War II, and they were
very good team for that era. They were
admired, but not widely.
A sporting goods dealer and sports fan
named Mike Sklar made an abortive effort
with an all-star club. An all-colored team
called the Washington Bears also flopped at
Turner's Arena. The most recent failure
was that Of Harry Lynn and associates,
who attempted to field q solvent team
named the Washington Tapers in 1861.
The disadvantages Of Lynn's own arena
once Ulines but renamed the Washington
Coliseum-helped to mess that up. That,
plus too strong flavor of commercialism.
And that's been it.
Theorists may say that what hurts us is

tive indoor arena, a sort Of kid brother Of
