MAESTRO
Lift your magic wand, let sweet
music flow
As running waters, gently in a
stream.
Silken notes will sound as the
trumpets blow,
And all the world kneels at your
feet to dream.
Sonata sweet when hands reach
into the sky,
Hearts beat in time, this is yourj
metronome.
Let troubles cease and melancholy;
die
And bring us peace when we are
urged to roam.
Maestri . . . the gift of your magic
poworr
Will cast a spell of hope thru j
lonely hours.

our indebtedness to Thee.

grateful for our own House of
Worship to which we are bound
by the closest ties of fellowship,

I believe I’ll read “Doctor Zhi
vago” by Russia’s Boris Paster
nak, as so many will now prob
ably do. This points up the fu
tility of censoring or banning a
book with the idea of preventing
people from reading it. It has the
reverse effect. If the Communists
had kept quiet about “Doctor
Zhivago”, many who will now
i read the novel would never have
| heard of it.

We thank Thee chiefly for Thyj

words into faithful services to'
Thee, Amen.

THE OLD WEST—The white man

The National Outlook
1960 Presidential Possibilities
By Ralph Robey
l. r -
It is much too early to draw
any final conclusions as to 1960 1
Presidential candidates. How-,
ever, so much discussion is tak-|
ing place that it is interesting and
worthwhile to survey the possi-.
bilities.
On the Republican side only
two names appear to need consid
eration. First is Vice President
Richard Dixon of California. He
j is well known to the public, is
[ well liked by the majority of par-!
i ty workers, is an excellent cam*
! paigner, and presumably will be
in control of the California dele-i
gation at the 1960 Republican
Convention. Also he wants thej
nomination, and has been work-'
ing in that direction for a longi
. time. . I
! The second, possibility on the
Republican side is Nelson Rocke-!
feller. In defeating Harriman for,
the New York governorship
Rockefeller showed himself to be
| a real vote getter. He is more
! liberal than Nixon, and Tom
Dewey is behind him. It is as
sumed Dewey will attempt to stop
! Nixon with Rockefeller at the
convention, a threat not to be tak
| en lightly because Dewey has a
| superb machine and is an expert
! m its use. In addition, there are
! - lot of persons, especially in the
! South, who do not like Nixon
j and here you have the makings of
; a relatively hard fight for the
' nomination. I
On the Democratic side there
are several possibilities. The one
most frequently mentioned is
Senator Kennedy of Massachu
setts. He won reelection by an,
astounding majority, and is ac
tively campaigning for the Presi
dential nomination. If he is nom
nated it will be the second time
in our histroy that a Catholic ranj
for the Presidency—the first be
ing A1 Smith. This probably is
not so much a handicap as it was
when Smith was the candidate,
but a lot of political leaders think
it still would cost votes. Even
some Catholics would be opposed
to the nomination on the grounds
that no minority group should be
put in the position of having one
i of their members thus forced in
to the limelight. Also it should
be remembered that Kennedy was
( given quite a run two years ago
jin his ditive for the Vice Presi-
I dential nomination.
I Another Democrat potential is
Adlai Stevenson. He had the
: nomination twice and lost, but ob
| viously is available again. He is
known by all the Democratic par
ty workers and it is possible that
they might decide that, with vic
tory better than an even chance,
he should be given the opportuni
-Ity to become President. If he is
nominated official labor will sup
port him, -nd the South would
| not take a walk over his nomi
nation.
j Senate Leader Lyndon Johnson
.; also must be considered. He is
j generally regarded as having done
extraordinarily well in holding his
party together in the past session
!of the Congress. On the debit
, side is a heart attack of a few
years ago. However he has learn
ed to pace himself and appears in
the best of health. On the credit
side, his nomination would assure
that the South would not put an
other candidate in the field. This
is not because the South likes
Johnson so much, but because he
is a Southerner and it would be
unthinkable that they should turn
against him to that extent.
Those are the three leading con
tenders at the moment, but there
are two other m«t} who definite
ly are in the offing.
I First of these is Senator Stuart
Symington of Missouri. He was
formerly Secretary of the Air
Force and won re-election as Sen
ator this year by a handsome ma
jority. He has widespread sup
port among business, and long has
had eves on the White House.
Second is Governor Meyner of
New Jersey. He is a possibility
j because his hand-picked ronHi
date for the Senate, Harrison Wil-
b
Schenley Distillers Co., N.Y.C. • Blended Whisky of Elegance • 86 Proof, 65? t Grain Neutral Spirits
.4
liams, won this year, and necause j
the Governor has she wn he is;
popular with the voters.
As stated earlier, it is too soon
to draw conclusions. But at the
moment, in my judgment, the Re
publican candidate will be Nixon
and the Democratic candidate will
be Stevenson. This means that
Dewey, in spite of his machine, !
will not be able to put Rockefeller j
across, and that when the cards ,
are down it will be decided that
Stevenson, having waged two un- '
successful campaigns, is entitled
to another opportunity to become
President. '
Os course a thousand things can
and will happen between now and
the political convention of 1960.
These mav be of a character
which will eliminate all of those
listed, but that is for the future,
