Rockefeller Intends to
Pursue 64 Nomination
By JACK BELL
AP News Analyst
WASHINGTON — The firm
message has been passed to Re
publican leaders that Gov. Nelson
A. Rockefeller has every intention
of pursuing vigorously his quest
for the 1964 GOP presidential nom
ination.
At what some of his friends be
lieve is the low mark of his popu
larity, the New York governor is
depicted as determined to stay in
the contest for a nomination some
party members thought he had for
feited when he married the divor
ced mother of four children.
They cite the quiet Rockefeller
selling job being carried on by
George L. Hinman, New York Re
publican National Committeeman.
Hinman, who heads the presiden
tial task force, is emphatic about
his man’s availability.
Rockefeller himself is reported
to feel that politically things have
gotten so bad they are bound to
get better. From an acknowledged
top running position he has plum
meted to a level at which, for the
moment, he can count with cer
tainty on not much more than New
York’s convention support.
This circumstance finds Repub
licans divided on the issue of whe
ther the governor will stick it out.

rhe Road to Huddersfield
Is Hook of Month Club
Mid-Summer Selection
James Morris’ “The Road to
Huddersfield,” a bird’s-eye view of
Lhe revolution of our time, is the
Book of the Month Club selection
for midsummer, 1963. Clifton
Fadiman, describing the book to
club members, calls it “a minor
uiracle of reporting, as instructive
as it is entertaining.”
Mr. Morris uses the English
town of Huddersfield as a symbol
:>f the process. Huddersfield was
>nce a primitive crossroads farm
village on the Yorkshire moors.
Then, in the 18th century, the first
winds of the industrial revolution
began to stir. Huddersfield soon
became what it has been ever
since: one of England’s busiest
manufacturing towns, living “by
steam, cogs, iron and engine
grease.”
Above all. Mr. Morris is con
cerned with the World Bank, which
was established in 1944 to en
courage and help just such areas
and which until recently was head
ed by its founder, the American
banker Eugene Black.
Mr. Morris is not a finacier or
a banker. He has written on sub
jects as diverse as Arabian society,
South African politics, and the
climbing of Mt. Everest. In his
latest b<x)k his purpose is to de
scribe the transformation of five
widely separated areas where the
World Bank has been at work —
Ethiopia, Siam, southern Italy,
Columbia and the Punjab.
Ethiopia, for example — with
its feudal emperor, its gaudy his
tory, its archaic look — is being
changed as World Bank loans help
to transform its communications
system.
Will modernization, “Westerni
zation,” make other peoples hap
pier?
Mr. Morris himself concludes
that the World Bank has already
done vast amounts of good and is
destined to accomplish more.
“Could such an instrument,” he
asks, “one day convince even the
Communists that charity is the
common duty of us all?”

Seek Preservation
Of the Bald Eagle
By TOM STUCKEY
LAUREL, Md. W—Scientists at
the Patuxent Wildlife Research
Center near here are trying to
solve a riddle that may threaten
the existence of America’s na
tional bird, the bald eagle.
There are only about 4,000 bald
eagles in the United States, ex
cluding Alaska, and there has been
a severe drop recently in the
number of young eagles being
born.
“Breeding success in some areas
is almost nil,” said Dr. William
Stickel, one of those directing the
research at the center.
This is especially true along the
Atlantic coast, where only about
one in ten attempts by bald eagles
to raise their young succeeded la t
year.
The investigation has centered
on pesticides as the possible cause.
But Dr. John L. Buckley, direc
tor of the Wildlife Research Cen
ter, said he was not yet convinced
pesticides are the cause of the
eagles’ failure to reproduce. He
added however, he also wasn’t
convinced that pesticides were not
the cause.
Researchers at Patuxent are
working along two lines.
Dr. James B. DeWitt, who has
charge of this phase of research,
said 37 of the first 38 dead eagles
tested showed residues of pesti
cides. The other was killed acci
dentally at an airport in Alaska.
ine secona phase of the pro
gram has been carried out at a
station in Alaska, where there arc
more bald eagles than in the rest
of the United States. Researchers
from Patuxent Center trapped
eagles on the Chilkat River in
Southeastern Alaska and sent them
to nearby Petersburg.
There the birds were fed diets
laced with carefully controlled
amounts of pesticides.
This research indicated that the
lethal dose is about 160 parts per
million of pesticides.
Last winter, 16 eagles were di
vided into three groups and fed
diets containing 10 parts per mil
lion of pesticides for varying
lengths of time. The birds were
killed at the end of the test period,
and they are being studied at
Patuxent.
Dr. Stickel said the researchers
hope to find from this study how
pesticide builds up in the body
and how fast the level drops off
when the birds are no longer get
ting the pesticide.
