Ike Favors Free
For All Contest
In Presidential
GOP Nomination
WASHINGTON — Former
President Dwight D. Eisenhower
seems to favor a free-for-all con
test for the 1964 Presidential Re
publican nomination.
Eisenhower suggested at a
Rochester, N.Y., news conference
Friday that Gov. George Romney
of Michigan and Sen. Thruston B.
Morton of Kentucky would make
good nominees.
This was immediately inter
preted in party ranks here as an
indication Eisenhower hasn’t much
hankering for either Sen. Barry
Goldwater of Arizona or New
York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller as
the standard bearer.
The former President was repre
sented as still in a slow burn over
a crack made by Goldwater several
weeks ago that “one Eisenhower
in a generation is enough.” The
general also was said to have found
it difficult to forget Rockefeller’s
1960 contention that the nation’s
military posture had been allowed
to deteriorate.
Despite Romeny’s repeated de
nials that he is a candidate or in
tends to become one, Eisenhower
said the governor would have to
be considered for the 1964 nomi
nation if he “does a good job in
Michigan.”
He denied, however, mat he was
promoting Romney for the nomi
nation. He said anyone who said
that “is just completely off his
rocker.”
Noting that Rockefeller and
others are possibilities Eisenhower
added:
“There is another possiblity I
hear being mentioned more —
Sen. Thruston Morton, a very able
man from Kentucky.”
Morton, former GOP National
Chairman and now head of the
party’s Senatorial Campaign Com
mittee, came up quickly with a
disvowal of any such ambitions.
“I think it’s just a lot of talk
and nothing is going to come of
it,” he said.

Debris Found on
Atlantic Bottom May
Be Part of Sub Thresher
WASHINGTON W — Debris on
the Atlantic Ocean bottom located
by search ships “bear out the pos
sibility’’ that it is from the wreck
of the atomic submarine Thresher,
the Navy announced Saturday.
Ships in the search fleet had
converged on a 300-yard area, a
daily summary reported.
The hunt has centered about 200
miles east of Cape Cod, in water
more than 8,000 feet deep.
Referring to the research ship,
equipped with deep water cameras
and sonar gear, the summary said:
“The pictures by Atlantis II
show debris dense enough to be
the missing submarine but the
pictures in themselves are not con
clusive. However, side-looking
sonar and other electronic prob
ings of the area bear out the pos
sibility that the debris in the
area could be the Thresher.”
The job of deciding what the
pictures and sonar recordings
show is primarily up to Capt. T. A.
Andrews, search commander,
aboard the destroyer Du Pont.
The summary said that “under
water cameras, sonar and other
devices will be used in an effort
to determine if the debris is the
submarine or merely an unusual
density of trash in the target area.”

India and Pakistan
Is a Big Headache
To U.S. and Britain
By Henry Bradsher
NEW DELHI GP — The new
breakdown of the Kashmir talks
between India and Pakistan pre
sents an agonizing choice to the
United States and Britain.
It is whether to help build up
India’s defenses against Commu
nist China at a cost of alienating
Pakistan, an ally of the two West
ern powers that fears the weapons
might be used against it.
India is seeking $1.35 billion in
foreign military aid, primarily from
the United States. Britain Canada
and Australia.
The help is wanted over the next
few years to double India’s army
to more than a million men, mod
ernize its air force and strengthen
the navy.
Washington and London had
hoped for settlement of the Kash
mir dispute before having to de
cide on undertaking a long-term
military aid program for India.
Settlement would have avoided
antagonizing Pakistan and elimin
ated the danger of dissipating In
dian efforts in the bitter quarrel
with Pakistan.
But there is no prospect of a
settlement, in the opinion of ex
perienced observers.
India’s Minister of Economic
and Defense Coordination is in
Washington and is going later to
London with a armaments shop
ping list.
He wants $576 million for the
Indian air force, $425 million for
the army and navy and $350 mil
lion for defense production.
The bulk of this would have to
come from the United States and
the Commonwealth, but some
might be sought from other coun
tries as a non-military support aid.
Washington, London, Ottawa and
Canberra are now delivering $120
million worth of weapons. This
emergency aid began shortly after
the Chinese Communists smashed
through the Indian army in the
Himalayas last October and No
vember.
The amount of further aid need
ed since the voluntary Chinese
withdrawal depends upon evalua
tion of the continuing Chinese
threat to India.
New Delhi sees a grave threat.
Pakistan says there is no threat.
Washington thinks there is a need
to build up India as a solid block
to China’s designs on Southern
Asia.
Indian officials are counting on
American hostility toward China
to outweigh worries about Pakis
tan’s feelings.
Some American policy makers
think Pakistan must stick with
the West, unhappily or not.
Since 1955 Pakistan has received
from the United States about $1.25
billion worth of arms and defense
support, almost as much as India
is now seeking over a shorter
period.
Now that no settlement is in
sight the West has to decide how
far to go ahead anyway.
Years during which V. A. Krish
na Menon irritated the Americans
while Pakistan learned the fine
art of influencing Congress may
now come home to roost on India.
Pakistan can be expected to use
whatever influence it has in Wash
ington to argue against arms for
India.
The U.S. government says that
a basket of groceries that cost
$10.16 in 1952 costs only about
$9.80 today. The average family
spends slightly less than 20 per
cent of its income for food, the
lowest figure in our history.

WASHINGTON (*> — The In
terior Department reported Sat
urday a total of 13,996,353 indi
vidual purchases of hunting li
censes were made during 1962 in
49 states.
Though the department did not
receive data from Colorado on the
number of paid hunting license
holders, it did receive from all 50
states a complete count on the
total number of licenses, tags,

for them, $63,983,798. The cost was
$78,984 less than in 1961.
Figures on the number of paid
license holders are used as a basis
for distributing federal aid funds
for wildlife restoration projects.
The 1961 total was 11,798,890, with
four states not supplying data.
Michigan reported more paid
hunting license holders than any
other state, 1,086,506, and the high
est gross cost to hunters for all
kinds of licenses and permits,
$4,528,228. Pennsylvania was sec
ond high in both, with 918,527
holders and $4,253,715 cost.

Tito Will Seek Better
Relations With the West
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia Gfl —•
President Tito said Saturday his
country will continue to seek the
best possible relations with the
West and will support Soviet Pre
mier Khrushchev’s policies in
Communist affairs. He lashed the
Chinese Communists ar Troskyite
war seekers.
Evidently referring to July talks
in Moscow betwen the Red Chinese
and Soviet party leaders on their
ideological dispute, he declared,
“any compromise or unprincipled
agreement at the expense of others
would do great harm to the work
ing class movement in general.”
In his capacity as secretary-gen
eral of the Yugoslav Communist
party, Tito delivered a long report
on the country’s attitude toward
current world problems to the
party’s Central Committee.
Sonic Boom Backfires
KALAMAZOO, Mich. UP> — An
Air Force publicity stunt herald
ing the opening of an Armed
Forces Day celebration in Battle
Creek, 25 miles away, apparently
backfired in Kalamazoo.
An F-106 Delta Dart flying at
45,000 feet created a sonic boom
Friday to demonstrate, according
to an Air Force spokesman, that
“not all sonic booms are destruc
tive.”
The sonic boom was barely
heard in Battle Creek, where the
Armed Forces Day ceremonies
were being staged, but in Kalama
zoo it shattered at least one plate
glass window in a downtown
flower shop and sent Kalamazoo
residents scurrying from their
homes.

Peanut Butter Goes Glamorous in Clam Bisque
Over two years of consumer and laboratory research went
into the development of the new Peter Pan peanut butter just
introduced. This new peanut butter has unique moistness and
depth of flavor which make it ideal as a recipe ingredient, as
well as for sandwiches and snacks. The Home Economists in
the Peter Pan kitchens have created many delicious and un
usual recipes, among them, this Peanut Clam Bisque ... an
easy, nutritious main dish the whole family will enjoy for
lunch or dinner. Because of the high quality protein in the
peanut butter, all you need add to make a balanced meal is
crusty bread, salad and fruit dessert.
