ARE applied to those who least
need help-the large low-cost
producers. The existing pro-
gram binders the efficiency Of
these producers. restricts mar
kets for their products and
often encourages them to over
produce.
The low-income farmers, who
need help the most. get prac.
|, tically nothing. For the low
income farmers we need an ap.
proach that is entirely separate
from subsidies. For the Other
farmers, we must gradually
adopt a new system of supports
which will provide true stabili-
zation Of prices but not create
an artificially high marke
price in normal times.
@. What issues are likely to
benefit the Republican presi-
Dental nominee most in the
1864 campaign?
! GOldwater-It is too early
to answer this one specifically,
but ! would think, as Of now,
foreign policy and the domestic
economy will be the issues the
Republicans follow.
Rockefeller The issues in
1864 are clear. President Ken
nedy-the Kennedy admins
tration - is not solving the
the basic problems which face
the American people, either at
home or abroad. Despite Mr..
Kennedy's promises, we still
have almost four million I'M
employed. and employment OPP
portunities are not expanding
fast enough to assure jobs for
all our young people who will
be coming into the labor mar
ket.
A major issue will be Jobs
through the growth of private
enterprise. We need an ad-
ministration that really under
stands the free enterprise sys-
tenn and how. through it. to
get economic growth and jobs.
Deterioration Cited
A major issue will be the de-
terioration Of our position in
world affairs. During the Ken
nedy administration:
/. A Soviet military base and
a Communist subversion center
have been established in Cuba.
In Latin American, democracy
has suffered a series Of re-
verses and the much touted
Alliance for Progress has not
gotten off the ground-in fact
it is neither an alliance nor
is there progress.
2. Our system Of free world
alliances-NATO, SEATO, GAS
have been weakened.
/. 8. The Berlin wall has been
built.
4. Laos, South Wet Nam and
Southeast Asia as a whole are
in grave peril.
5. The balance Of payments
crisis threatens our world eco
nomic position.
A major issue will be the fail
ure of the Kennedy administra-
ton, despite overwhelming
Democratic majorities in the
Congress. to pass promised So
cial legislation. particularly the
deliberate delay on civil rights
until this summers racial
crisis.
A major issue will be the
practice of The Kennedy ad-
ministration to talk about
fundamental problems and
then deal with them only by
gimmicks or public relations.
i The American people want
the fundamental profile m
facing them to be dealt with
forthrightly and solved on the
basis Of fundamental princi-
pies that are in line with ouI
basic American heritage. The
Republican Party can Offer
these solutions, and If it does
we will win in 1864.
@. Do you think any Repub-
lican can defeat President
Kennedy without substantial
electoral vote support from the
South?
GOIdwater-To defeat Ken.
nedy in "a will take substantial
electoral support from all Sec
tons of the country, not Just
! any particular one.
ROckefeller-The diSSatisfac.
ton with the Kennedy admin
istration Is not limited to any
: particular area of the country
it exists across the country
! North, South, East and West
I believe that President Ken
needy can be defeated in 1864
and that the Republican nom
