WASHINGTON (AP)—The most
pussling Republican of 1960 is still
New York Gov. Nelson A. Rocke-
feller.
He dropped his bid for the Re-
publican presidential nomination
last December because, he said,
the party bosses didn’t want him.
Apparently they still don't, but a
few weeks ago he edged back into
the picture by saying he’s avail-
able.
While he's willing to be drafted
for the ticket's No. 1 spot, which
he says he feels sure he won’t get,
he says positively and absolutely
he will not accept the vice presi-
dential nomination, which might
be offered him.
ONLY MILD
When he expressed his liberal
views before the party’s Platform
Committee in Chicago this week,
he got mild applause. But there
was an ovation for Sen. Barry
Goldwater of Arizona, spokesman
for the party's extreme right
wing.
Rockefeller said he will cam-
paign actively for the party and
the ticket. But at the same time
he said he may publicly disagree
with official party doctrine dur-
ing the campaign.
At a time when Republican big-
wigs seem to yearn for unity, he
has been a eenetant irritant by
criticizing both the Eisenhower
administration and Vice President

THE MAXWELL—Everyone who has ever heard or seen Jack Benny knows the
Maxwell Car. This car was popular in its era and became one of the base cars in
the formation of the Chrysler Corp. Note lack of windshield. This particular mo-
del could only be purchased in this shad e of red. The Maxwell has a two cylinder,
horizontally opposed motor that produces 14 hp. The body is made of metal and
featured unit construction. The car sold for about $825.
Sheath dresses, car coats and
dusters are back in the fashion pic-
ture after a good many years in
the attic for dress up and Hallo-
ween. But how about those cars of
yesteryear?
You can see the parade of auto-
motive fashion at the Car and Car-
riage Caravan at Luray. Va. There
Ted Graves has assembled 75 au-
thentically restored cars from the
1892 Benz down to the Hispano-
Suiza built for the 1935 Paris Auto
Show and bought for $90,000 by
H. S. Perry of Surry, England.
It must have been easy to get the
girls to ride in that beauty with
its lizard skin upholstery and gold-
plated trim and enough power still
to get it up to 130 miles per hour
if you can find any place to try
it out.
What about this half a century
of styles in cars. Just as we’ve
adapted the old fashions in dress
and given them a new look, some
of the newest things about our new-
est cars are just in superficial styl-
ing.
How about that air-cooled motor?
you ask. There's a two-cylinder
air-cooled international Farm Wa-
gon built in 1907—so perhaps your
neat little Volkswagen isn’t such
a startling pace-setter after all.
Directional light? They assisted
30 years ago. There's one on the
Hispano-Suiza, operated from the
dashboard, and it still works.

RECONCILIATION
Whether this is so—and, if it is,
whether Rockefeller is seeking
some kind of reconciliation with
the more conservative elements of
the party — still isn’t clear. But
one thing seems to be obvious:
In the November elections the
difference between a national Re-
publican victory or defeat may be
the difference between carrying
New York or losing it. The party
will be in tough shape if Rocke-
feller should sit on his hands.
Nevertheless, the party bosses
have shown few signs of en-
thusiasm for the governor, at
least to the point of buying his
ideas for the platform or giving
him the presidential nomination..
EMBARRASSMENT
He has been a goad to the par-
ty. perhaps an embarassment,
with his proposals and his criti-
cisms. His only purpose may have
been to try to have a liberalizing
effect. Or perhaps he was think-
ing ahead.

One of every five persons 12 years of age or older is
a hunter or a fisherman or both. Fishing is more
popular, with one out of every four males a fisher-
man and one out of every 11 females an angler. Hunt-
ing remains largely a man’s sport (one of the few these,
days). One ir every five males vs. one in every 128
females are hunters.
Big-city dwellers get in comparatively little hunting
—only two per cent vs. 10 per cent who fish. In
smaller cities, some six per cent hunt and 16 per cent
fish. In towns and rural areas, about 14 per cent hunt
and 21 per cent fish.
And to make the stotistics really hit home, the fed-
eral agency estimates that about three billion dollars
is spent annually for fishing and hunting in the Uni-
ted States. Hunting accounts for about a billion dollars,
and fishing the rest.

A survey by the United States Fish and Wildlife Ser-
vice, however, gives you some idea of how unalone

One in every three households in the United States
has one or more hunters or fishermen among its mem-
bers. Among big-city dwellers, one in six families in-
cludes hunters or fishermen. In smaller cities, the fig-
ure is one in three. In rural areas, it’s one in two.

The Cooperation Needed
If Country Progresses
SECRETARY OF LABOR James P. Mitchell, in ad-
dressing a Houston meeting the other day, stressed the
joint responsibility of management and labor as com-
ponents of the free enterprise system, and he said they
must meet the challenges and needs inherent in the
country’s almost explosive growth—a growth which
shows every sign of continuing.
He possibly could not have underscored a point of
any greater timliness or significance.
“Who is zoing to solve these problems, the federal,
state and local governments or the genius of America
that is labor and management?” he asked in posing a
question on which the United States faces a funda-
mental decision. What he was saying, in effect, was
that unless labor and management together and co-op-
eratively meet their full responsibilities to the nation
in an acceptable manner the alternative is assumption
of increased responsibility by government. The public
will demand solutions from one or the other. If it is
government to which the people must look, the in-
evitable result will be socialism in one degree or an-
other.
Although Secretary Mitchell did not have the oppor-
tunity to go into the situation as deeply as he might
have, it is becoming increasingly clear that there must
be a general recognition by both management and
labor of their joint responsibilities as well as their mu-
tual interests. If the free enterprise system is to
survive over the long pull, both of its segments must
find a basis for co-operative endeavor and collaboration.
This assumes concrete meaning in the field of wage
negotiations. One approach would be for both to sit
down together before the actual start of negotiations
and review the overall situation of the nation’s economy
as well as that of the particular industry or enterprise
involved. Both should enter negotiating sessions with
a clear understanding of what the cold, hard facts are
with respect to the effects any changes in their rela-
tionships would have not only upon the parties to the
negotiations but upon their mutual and shared inter-
ests as well.
Above all, it must be recognized that there is a third
party involved in the negotiations. That is the con-
sumer, for whom management and labor both work in
the final analysis. And unless the rights, needs and
interests of this third party are taken into account
and respected, price and wage controls exercised
through the instrumentality of government are almost
a certainty eventually. One way or another the con-
sumer is going to demand that his voice be heard and
his interests served.
easy, though, and don't be too dog-
matic because a 1910 Buick has
what they called in those days a
planetary transmission, with a
center gear around which rotate
smaller gears — granddaddy of
our automatics today.
How about that padded dash-
board now being promoted as a
safety feature? You just haven't
been around—at least not around in
a 1931 Pierce Arrow.

None on this seems quite so sur-
prising when you remember there
were 2,530 different makes of cars
manufactured in the United States
alone. All that competition stimu-
lated ingenuity, but it also resulted
in a high mortality rate of brand
names. The men who worked on
the old cars thought of all sorts
of innovations long ago Many
just weren’t economically practi-
cal at the time—or at least they
didn’t seem so to the boys putting
up the money. At one time even

THE BENZ—This is one of the oldest automobiles on display in the United States.
Although there were earlier experimental and custom made automobiles, this was
one of the first cars produced in any quantity for resale. It is an ancestor of the
present day Mercedes Benz. The first Benz was built by Karl Benz in 1885 and
was a three-wheeler. This Benz engina was the prototype for many one cylin-
der engines which followed at a much later date, notably that curved dash Olds-
mobile.

1964.
When Rockefeller said earlier
this year he wouldn't consider be-
ing No. 2 man on the ticket head-
ed by Nixon, the vice president
seemed to be taking him at his
word.
Then the Democrats came up
with their North-South combina-
tion of Sens. John F. Kennedy
and Lyndon B. Johnson, a formi-
dable array of political talent, as
Rackefeller acknowledged this
week in saying the 1960 campaign
would be a tough one.
OPEN
It was after this that Nixon's
unofficial campaign manager,
Leonard W. Hall, said that if
Rockefeller withdrew his firm
stand against second place he
would be open to consideration for
the No. 2 spot on the ticket.

got in Chicago this week before
the Platform Committee, Rocke-
feller may feel more determined
than ever to stay out of the pic-

slowly on Joseph W. Bailey, for-

contest for the democratic guber-

votes of yesterday's primary had
been tabulated today, but it be-
came increasingly evident that
neither would secure a majority
and would be opponents in the
August run-off. Bailey had 115,-

Lengthy consideration of adding
to the Denton municipal power
plant generating units was cli-
maxed Monday night in a called
session when the City Commis-
sion purchased an additional $43,-

new unit is of 1,000 horsepower.
Details of the generator were be-
ing worked out in a conference
Tuesday afternoon attended by
company representatives. Mayor
Lee Preston end City Engineer
W. N. Harris. Rising consumption
figures here some time ago caus-
ed Harris to lay before the com-
missioner the matter of consider-
ing purchase of another Diesel
unit. He expressed concern that
to wait another year might make
it difficult to secure delivery of
a purchase because of the ne-
tional defense program that
might keep manufacturers occu-
pied with federal orders.
