To get a candidates name on
the ballot, either in the dele
gate race or In the so-called
beauty contest"-a mere
preference which is only ad-
visory-the name must be
filed by January 81. There is
still plenty of time for any
thing to happen. Governor
Rockefeller has already an

tering the primary. Senator
Goldwater has not yet an

speculation that Senator

that he is a candidate for re-

Goldwater does not enter the

Weigh Possibilities

of Mr.. Nixon in the past ad-
NIT that he would have liza

he would start as a defeated
candidate in the 1860 race
for President and as q de-
feated candidate for Gov
ernor Of California in 1862.
There are conservatives and
progressives in the party who
do not like the campaign he
waged in 1860, saying he was
neither one thing nor the
other.

Washington and Baltimore

said. but in II years their

panded from 1887 square miles

The land economist said the
reason behind his predicted

the city has been supplanted by
the metropolitan area" Two
thirds Of the people in the
Washington metropolitan area
live outside the city limits while
about one-half of Baltimore

CROSSE PoNTE, Mich,
June 20 (AP). - Republican
Gov. George Romney, in a sur

h e a d an anti segregation
march through this fashionable
Detroit suburb today.
Gov. Romney, who had not
been asked to appear, walked
casually to the head of the
group as members of the Ma
tional Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People
and others were forming a pa
rade to march through Crosse
Pointe and adjoining Crosse
Pointe Park.
He said he had not been
asked to head the parade but
added, that since he was in
the Detroit area he decided to
come out.
I came because I believe that
any American should have equal
rights with any other American.
There is an excessive amount
of discrimination in housing
Some practiced in this partic-
ular part Of the State is par
ticularly reprehensible," he
said.
Gov. Romney had rejected
invitations to participate in a
civil lights march through
Dearborn, another Detroit SUBJ

which more than $4,000 per-
sons marched down Detroit'S
Woodward avenue last Sunday.

Railway Labor Management Join
To Place Unemployed RuiIrouders

Railroad management and labor
are cooperating at "ground level"
to find employment, in and out side
the railroad industry, for sale
and experienced railroad workers
idled by economic and other adj
verse Developments. This team
work is taking place under a plan
known as the partnership pro-
gram" which was initiated by the
Railroad Retirement Board in July
1856.
Under the partner ship program,
unemployed claims agents, rail-
roads, railroad brotherhoods and
the Boards field offices have COM
bined their efforts to find Jobs
for laid-off railroaders. This CO.
operation has proven effective, as
borne out by the fact that in the
six fiscal years that have elapsed
since the program started, jobs
were found for 213 400 idled rail
railroad workers, al, 500 on the
railroads, and II 800 in other
industries.
AS by-product of the pro-
gram, railroad management and
labor officials have developed a
plan of job transfers on a local
level. These involve transfers to
other seniority districts or de-
partments on the same railroads
in identical or different &C
equations. In the last two fiscal
years, $1,000 railroad employees
facing layoff were transferred
under this plan, in many cases
without loss of any working time.
These transfers are nationwide
involving all workers. The Board
points out that it takes no place
ment credit for these jobtransfers;
they are the product of the team
work between local railroad ma
nagement and labor people.
Here are examples oftransfers
which were made in recent months.
Train and-engine service men
were transferred between opera
ting divisions; shop employees
from one location to another: car
men to machinist helpers: track
laborers tocarman helpers; stores

that they will continue to be in

Thinks Kennedy Needs
Peace And Prosperity

Iticing politician to understand
what a mid summer recession
would do to a President who
was campaigning just then for
reelection. It would lick him.
Focus On Tax Bill
So the foundation Of Ken
nedy'S prosperity plank must
be laid on a tax bill which is
stuck in Congress although
likely to pass in some form
next year. Kennedy's own
words reflect the urgency with
which he needs to get that tax
cut through Congress to pro-
tect his reelection interests in
such states as Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania, Michigan, Illinois and
Massachusetts. The President
thinks those states would be hit
hardest.
Tax bill or no tax bill, there
are some cracks in Kennedy'S
prosperity campaign plank. I'm
employment has not responded
to what the Democratic Presi-
dent and Democratic Congress
have been able to do about it.
Some 1860 campaign promises
about unemployment remain to
be redeemed.
The joblesS and their friends
are likely to doubt the validity
of 1864 prosperity. And the Re-
publicanS will ask embarraS-
sing questions.

BY LYLE C.. WILSON
United Press International


There would be some formid-
able chance taking if the Ken
nedy administration conducts
the Presidents re election
campaign on the theme Of
peace-and-prosperity.
The appearance or tn e
reality of peace in 1864 will de-
pend very much on the unpre-
dictable Nikita S. KhruShchev.
The Soviet Unions formal
promises have proved before
this to be all too slender reeds
for leaning. The peace part Of
the Democratic campaig n
theme will be vulnerable on a
day-to-day basis.
Some wild words or wild &C
tons by KhruShchev might de-
stroy the idea that peace
actually prevails and til a t
President Kennedy should be
paid off for it at the polls. Ken
nedy, of course is not a help
less captive of the Russians.
The President is a pretty smart
operator himself.
Discovery of the wrong kind
Of missiles in Cuba during the
1860 congressional campaign
could have wrecked Democrat
ic chances. But Kennedy'S
strong action did more than
merely to cause the Commu-
niSts to back down. Kennedy'S
actions also proved to be ef-
fectiye vote getters for Demo
cratic congressional candidates.
New Opportunity Possible
Some hard-noSed Communist
maneuver next year might of
fer Kennedy a splendid oppOr-
tunity to make some more p0-
litic2l hay at the expense of
the Republicans. The hazard to
Kennedy is that the chips are
as likely to fall against as to
fall with him in such a Situa-
ton. If KhruShchev chose the
right sabre and ratified it pro-
perly at just the right time and
the right place, he might pre-
vent Kennedy's re : election. 1t
was a near thing for the Dem
ocrats, in fact, last time.
The prosperity plank of Ken
nedy'S re : election campaign
platform would be equally a
political hazard, if not more so.
The President is well aware OF
that. 1t would not be fair to
him to suggest that Kennedy
proposed tax reduction legiSla-
ton merely to bolster 1864 re-
election prospects. But the
President and his associates
have been plugging the bill as
q measure intended to enable
the United States to avoid a
business slump, further unem-
ployment, industrial stagnation
and the like.
Kennedy was telling the tax
cut story to Ohio newspaper
editors last week when they
were White House guests for
lunch. He said the country
would avoid a recession if the
tax bill were enacted. If the
bill is rejected, Kennedy said,
there might be a recession. If
1t came, this recession would
hit in the summer Of 1864. 1t
Is not necessary to be a prac-
