Newspapers Favor Gov. Rockefeller NEW YORK (UPI) —The New York Post, which supported Democrat Adlai Stevenson in two presidential campaigns, t o d a y called for the nomination of Gov. Nelson A Rockefeller to carry the Republican presidential standard. “The plain truth now is tiiat large legions of liberal voters feel no affirmative pession for the Democratic ticket but retain an active hostility for the Nixort team that the GOP seems destined to offer . . . Rockefeller’s nomination would drastically alter the outlook. His candidacy would receive a full, sympathetic hearing from millions of uncommitted voters in crucial areas,” the Post said. Rockefeller’s nomination would mean the GOP had challenged the

Democratic party "as the major instrument of liberalism.” the liberal evening newspaper, which had backed Stevenson for a third nomination last week, said in a signed editorial. St. Louis ST. LOUIS (UPI) —The St. Louis Post-Dispatch says Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller is the best man the Republican party has for the presidential nomination and he should be drafted—but probably won't be. The newspaper said in an editorial Tuesday that Rockefeller had displayed a masterly grasp of foreign and domestic problems and "an enlightened and liberal approach toward them.” The Post-Dispatch said Rockefeller has “a spirit of independence and a sense of confidence that would make him both a firstrate candidate -and- -president-.--’-The Post-Dispatch said that by all signs, like Adlai Stevenson, Rockefeller is not going to be drafted. - —•--
