survey of GOP leaders across the nation reflected the opinion that the GOP convention this sumer will be the scene of a Wide-open fight for the nomina'lion. Many Still Skeptical A great many of the party representatives, acknowledging Lodge’s 11,000-vote victory margin without ever leaving Saigon, still were skeptical that his supporters would be able to repeat the feat in other primaries or that he would capture the nomination unless he returns to the United States before the GOP gathering in July. The ambassador’s smashing write-in success in the New England contest, they inferred, was more a tribute by the state’s voters for a Massachusetts neighbor th anr~ whelming defeat for eitherRockefeller or Goldwater. Both candidates plan to stepup their activities in California and elsewhere, both to overcome the effect of the New Hampshire return and to nail down additional delegate support for the summer convention. Lodge garnered 34-8 per cent of the total vote cast Tuesday. Goldwater picked up 21.7 per cent, Rockefeller 21 per cent and Richard M. Nixon 16 per cent. Goldwater Heads Rodeo Goldwater stopped today in Phoenix, Ariz., on- his way to California to be grand marshall of a rodeo in the city. He leaves his hometown tonight for 10 days of campaigning for California’s 86 presidential primary votes. Before leaving Washington. 'Goldwater admitted, he had made some “goofs” during his tours of New Hampshire, but he promised that he and his supporters...would not make the same mistakes elsewhere. Rockefeller already is in California where he conceded Wednesday that polls "in that state and Oregon showed him as the underdog. To overcome this role, the New York govvernor planned to follow a rig. orous four-day handshaking and speaking tour. He was scheduled to speak to Oakland Negro leaders today, appear at the University of California in Berkely and attend receptions in Southern California in the evening. Nixon’s Plans Unchanged While the two leading announced candidates battled in California, the two most mentioned dark horse prospects for the nomination/ Richard M. Nixon and William W. Scranton, ' continued to maintain they were not candidates. The result of the New Hampshire primary has not affected his plans, Nixon said Wednesday night. “I have no intentions

of becoming an active candidate,” he said while volunteering to “speak for the Republican party, if ’ they want me, and to unite it.” PenrUylvania Gov. Scranton, still refusing to enter the race for the nomination, said that the New Hampshire primary result had made Lodge a serious .contender for the Republican prize. Farmer Has Trouble On Social Security By DIC£, WEST United Press International WASHINGTON (UPD—In order to q lalify for old age insurance benefits under the Social Security program, a selfemployed person must have a net income of at least S4OO a year for a certain period before his retirement. I should now like to acquaint you with the trials and tribulations of a Tennessee farmer who has bean trying to convince the government that his income for 1962 was sufficient to make him eligible. In support of his claim, the farmer submitted a statement listing the following sources 'of income for that year: “Two beagles $ 50.00 "One coon dog raised and sold 30.00 “Tobacco 137.10 "Eggs 10.00 "Tomatoes 50.00 “Vegetables (picking berries) 165.65” Government Findings Differ As any fool can plainly see, all of this adds up to $442.75. But hold on a second. There is more to this than meets the eye. In its report on the case, the Social Security administfation set forth the following additional findings: —The berry picking was performed by the farmer's wife and children and therefore the $165.65 “was no,t includable in his gross income.” —The SBO he collected from the sale of the two beagles and thecoon dog was “not incidental to the farming operation and is, therefore, not includable as farm income.” —The farmer “did not show any depreciation for his mule,” which he purchased in 1960 for slls with the expectation that it would last for eight years. Accordingly,, the administration rules that the farmer did not, in fact, earn the necessary S4OO. The farmer complained about the matter to his congressman, Rep. James H. Quillen, R-Tenn. who in turn took it up with the Social Security adminiistratSoßi. Mule Depreciates "Would you.” Quillen wrote, “be kind enough to explain to me how the mule-depreciation scale is set up.” “Depreciation of a capital asset. be it mule or whatever, is a business expense,” the agency implied. “We figure it like any other capital asset, i.c., cost divided by useful life (in years) equals annual depreciation.” , By this reckoning, the mule depreciated in the amount of sl4. in 1962. That settles that, apparently, but Quillen still has hopes that the agency will modify its position to the extent of allowing the berry picking and the beagle and coorf dog sales to count toward the farmer’s retirement.

Germany Worried Over French Moves

By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst Even Konrad Adenauer, West Germany’s former chancellor, to be developing some suspicions about his great and good friend. President Charles de Gaulle. Looking beyond the French president’s recognition of Red China, Adenauer said in a speech in Bonn it was possible that De Gaulle might also reach an understanding with the Soviet Union damaging to Germany and the West. “One must take note,” he said, “that a Soviet representative has been in Paris and talked with the French.” It was Adenauer who, in one of his last major acts In foreign policy, signed with De Gaulle in January, 1963, the FrancoGerman treaty of cooperation. The agreement provided specifically that the two governments would “consult before any decision on all important questions of foreign policy.” Net Consulted In the case of Red China, this De Gaulle failed to do. “It would have been better,” Adenauer said, if De Gaulle had discussed his move in ad-
