While everybody is aSSum-
ing that President Kennedy
will be renominated, there
are persistent reports in
Washington that next year
maybe Lyndon johnson will
not be on the Democratic
ticket as the vice presiden-
tial nominee.
Cognizance has been taken
Of such reports in Texas,
where Gov. John Connally
was quoted in a United Press
international dispatch a few
days ago as saying:
THE Democrats want to
win the 1864 elections, and
they might insure a loss If
they drop the Vice Presi-
dent"
Then came ar Associated
Press report of a speech in
Baltimore by Senator Thrus-
ton B. Morton Of Kentucky,
Republican, in which he
said:
There are some funny
things going on In Washing
ton. The Secretary of the
Navy Erred Korth) left town
rather hurriedly. Lyndon
Johnson's boy, Bobby Baker
CORNER secretary of the
Senate majority, resigned.
Now I wonder if Lyndon is
expecting the purge"
The subject came up first
IN the Presidents news con-
ference on May 9, 1862. The
question asked was:
There have been rumors
in print in and out of Texas
that Vice President johnson
might be dropped from the
Democratic ticket in 1864. I
would like to ask: Do you
have any reason whatever to
believe that either end Of the
Democratic ticket will be diff
ferent from 1902"
The answer by the Presi-
dent was:
well, 1 don't know about
what they will do with me,
but 1 am sure that the Vice
President will be on the
ticket If he chooses to run.
We were fortunate to have
him before-would again. I
don't know where such a
rumor could start. He is in

adviser to Senator GoldWa-
ter. and Mr.. Nixon, despite
his move to New York, is
lowering in the presidential
wings. Senator Kuchel has
the bird in hand, a term not
ending until 1868.
A further striking aspect
Of the situation Is that there
is a Senate race here next
year. 1t could be wide open,
as the incumbent Democrat,
Senator Engle, is III and may
be unable to campaign. But
nobody is looking for an
other Kuchel, certainly not
the high-riding Goldwater
army, and Republicans lack
a big name to toss into the
breach.
1t seems clear that today's
conservatives are interested
in a winner-take-all propo-
sition.

engaged in a few primary
contests with Senator Ken
nedy in 1860 for the Demo-
cratic presidential nomina-
ton.
Incidentally, there has
been some talk about Attor-
ney General Kennedy being
selected for the second place
on the ticket, but this idea
has been abandoned by its
enthusiastic proponents. who
now see Bobby Kennedy as
a possible manager Of the
national campaign. This
would necesSitate his resig-
nation from the Department
of Justice, and it has been
said in some circles here that
January / is the date tenta-
lively selected for his with
drawal from the cabinet. But
this seems an unlikely turn
of affairs and hardly bene-
fetal to his own political fu-
ture unless, of course, he ex-
poets to come back to the
cabinet in the post of Secre-
tary Of State. This also has
been rumored as possible If
Dean Rusk should succeed
Adlai Stevenson some day as
American Ambassador to the
United Nations.
Much of the Washington
talk and gossip reflects wish
full thinking on the part Of
those who would like to dis
place Lyndon johnson as
Vice President. Notwith-
standing the rumors, politi-
cal experts generally believe
the Democratic ticket will
be the same in 1864 as it was
in 1860 and that the Attor-
ney General will not give up
his post as head of the De-
partment Of Justice. Rob-
ert Kennedy is expected to
stay in the cabinet and try
for the presidency in 1868 If
his brother is reelected next
year.

But the question has con-

of course, that renewal of
the talk now is in some way
a result of the Bobby
Baker episode, since it Is
known that the man who is
being investigated was, in
his recent post, a protege
and associate Of the Vice
President. There isn't any
basis. however, for assuming
that Mr.. Johnson himself is
involved in any Of the mat
tiers on which a Senate in
quiry is being conducted.
The cause of the specula-
ton is doubtless political.
Some of the celebrities in
the Democratic Party would
like to be considered for the
vice presidential nomination.
The first objective. of course
is to create an impression
that there may be a vacancy
in that spot. Lyndon john
son was named originally be-
cause it was figured that he
would help to retain the
Southern electoral votes, not
only due to his leanings to-
ward the conservative side
but on the assumption that
he would be closer to the
civil rights position Of the
South than any other nomi-
nee and would thereby help
the Kennedy ticket.
But times have changed.
The South is headed away
from the Democrats and to-
ward Senator Goldwater.

It is becoming a nice
question whether President
Kennedy would not be better
off politically If he had a
Republican instead Of a
Democratic controlled Con-
greSs to contend with. 1t is
conceivable at least that the
record on domestic legisla-
ton would not be much worse
than it is, and Mr.. Kennedy
would have the residual gain
of a simple, pear-shaped is
sue on which to fight the
battle Of 1854.
One Of the more charming
memories among political re-
porters is the recollection Of
Harry Truman in 1948 sitting
outside the Philadelphia au-
ditorium over the railroad
tracks, serenely slipping bour-
bon and branch water as he
was about to enter, front
and center, to denounce the
do nothing" 80th Congress
and recall it on Missouri's
Day of the Turnip, or zuc-
chini, or whatever the noble
vegetable was.
Still, maybe this Just isn't
in the Kennedy nature. What
is very much In his nature
is to water down his own
programs in order to get
something on the books. He
doesn't exactly march up the
hill of a new frontier and
then march down again, like
the valiant Duke of York. He
marches up, then slows and
begins zig-Zagging, an &C
copied procedure for cross
ing mountain passes but of
improved validity in pass
ing legislation.
The zig and the gag pro-
cedure has now begun with
the tax-cut legislation, the
administration dropping its
insistence on a large cut in

LOS ANGELES.-Ca
Republicans are headed for
war over control Of their
party.
The presidential ambitions
Of Senator Barry Goldwater
and Gov. Nelson Rookie
Teller are symbols Of the
struggle which will put the
State G. o. P. on a straight
out conservative course or
lodge it in the middle way
of the halcyon Earl Warren
years.
Gov. Rockefeller's apparent
California successes last week
largely represent overdue rec
ignition by moderate Repub-
licans that they cannot
avoid the issue. Their cham
pion is late. They are not
sure he is man enough for
the bitter days ahead. but
he is all they have now.
Growing fear of the Gold
water theology in these quar-
tiers found a voice in the San
Francisco Chronicle yeSter-
day. The Chronicle took off
editorially from nator
Goldwater's suggestion that
NATO commanders should be
allowed to use tactical atomic
weapons without Washing
tons permission, an idea it
found simply appalling"
The editorial vehemently
attacked the Senator's zig
norance of the implications
of nuclear weapons" as doubly
appalling in a Republican
presidential candidate. 1t con-
cluded that it was easy to
understand why Sen tor
Jacob JavitS of New York
was refusing here to commit
himself to support of Senator
Goldwater.
More will be heard of the
military views of the Sen
ator, a reserve major gen.
eral in the Air Force. They
do not scare his admirers,
including the forces which
intend to seize control Of
the party organization here
under his banner.
Experienced observers are
predicting the showdown will

idea seems credible in this
age Of expertiSe.
But I have never been able
to see why the idea is fool
ish. Under the zelenko bill q
citizen would get a / per
cent reduction Of his earned
income for tax purposes at
the age Of As; at the age of
46, it would be 2 per cent,

on which a farmer can take
a large annual deduction for

Our tax structure is based
on the assumption that the
chief driving force in the
economy is the investment Of
money capital, so it receives
special protection. The real
driving force is the expendi-
ture Of capital-in the form
Of sweat, brains and talents
but it receives no protec-
ton. 1t is, in fact, discrimi-
