A FAMILY PROBLEM - This
approaching showdown between
the congressional and executive
branches Of the government pre-
sents the three Kennedy broth
ers with one of the most deli
cate problems Of their political
careers.
AS the lines are now drawn,
the controversy pits Teddy
against his brothers. President
J, Kennedy and Attorney General
Robert Kennedy, since they are
privately supporting the State
! Department.
Despite this embarrassing posi-
ton. Senator Kennedy has Sc
cretly kept both Of his brothers
informed, as best he can. Of the
Senate investigation Of State De-
partment security problems.
Although not a member of the
Internal Security Subcommittee

merchandising event for such
stores exceeded only by
Christmas and Easter sales. This
year, purchases in the field are
topping those of last year by
approximately five per cent. re-
flecting the climb in consumer
spendable income. My studies of
population trends show that there
will be no ledoWn in school
building or in the purchase Of
school supplies for many years
to come.
Ripples Widening Out
AS a matter of fact, l look for
the climb in school costs to have
a steadily more powerful effect
on business in general over the
years ahead. One line that has
been radically changed by the
swift growth of schoolagers is
textbooks. This used to be a
relatively conservative business,
but now the textbook companies
have to run full tilt all the time
to keep. up with the need not
only for more books but for new
books with a modern slant. Edu-
cational processes have bee n
changed greatly, and new teach
ing approaches are generally
employed. This means a great
boom for textbook houses, and
they expect sales for the current
fiscal year to top last years by
10 per cent to 20 per cent.
Recent reports show that
schoolr0om furniture has become
a tremendously important bust
ness as a result of the big

splurge in school construction.
Definite figures are hard to
come by but best estimtes indi-
cate that companies which make
school chairs, desks, tables, ETC.,
are selling about 0,OOO, 900
annually. Special emphasis is
placed upon movable furniture,
since the trend today is toward
classes of varying sizes and
special groups for different cate
gories of study
California A Prime Example
With California now adding
people faster than any other
state, it is interesting to look at
what is going on there. AS Of
now, the Californians are laying
out more than $1,000, 900, 900 a
year trying to keep up with the
demand for school space at all
public educational levels. T h e
scope of this demand can be
graphically demonstrated when
one set of figures is shown:
Back in 1947 the school popula-
ton was increasing some 10000
annually; at present the rate of
growth is 200, 900 per year. There
is every indication that the gain
will persist.
So wide are the needs of the
nations school system that a
tremendous number of products
are absorbed, either directly or
Indirectly. So l advise my read
ers who manufacture goods to
look into the possibility of sell
ing them to those constructing,
furnishing, or running schools.

by next March! If he gained in voter
esteem half as fast in the next twelve
months as he has in the past six, he
would be ahead of the President before
the 1864 election
Of course, it may prove harder to
gain the next eleven per cent than it was
in the last six months No one knows
the answer to that, Or what effect such
things as Goldwater's voting record in
the Senate will have in that time. But
if Goldwater does continue to gain he
will soon be in truly powerful posi-

From any standpoint, the latest
Gallup Poll is great encouragement
to the Arizona Republican and must
further his bid for the COP. nomina-

Goldwater Gains

THE latest Gallup Poll comparing the
popularity of President John F.
Kennedy with that of Senator Barry
Goldwater, of Arizona, the leading Re-
publican candidate for the G. O. P. nomi-
nation next year, reveals Goldwater is
still gaining ground.
If the poll is an accurate reflection
OF public opinion, Goldwater has gain
ed eleven percentage points since
March. Six months ago the polls showed
that II per cent of those questioned
favored President Kennedy and 20 per
cent favored GoldWater
At the end Of September the figures
among those expressing a preference
were SO per cent for Kennedy and 40
per cent for Goldwater
These figures are of great signifi-
canoe. They mean if Goldwater con-
tlnued to gain ground at the pace of
the last six months in the coming six

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7-Sena-

has reluctantly taken his first
politica ally explosive stand
against his brothers admiMStra-

The youngest Of the Kennedy
brothers secretly joined other
members of the powerful Senate
Judiciary Committee in blasting
the State Department for its
laxity in handling security cases
and Withholding information
from Congress.
In a confidential 10 page
Memorandum of Fact" which
was hand-delivered to Secretary
of State Rusk, the senator's
bluntly challenged the depart
ment's banning Of security Off
GERS and other State Department
personnel from teStlfylng before

They demanded that Secretary
Rusk personally halt the depart

validity of the charges against
him.
