Battle For GOP Leadership Now A Family Fight

GREENCASTLE, INDIANA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1964

UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL SERVICE NO. 10

WASHINGTON UPI — The GOP found itself in a chairthrowing family fight today i over the blame for Tuesday’s election disaster and ways to rebuild or remodel the Republican party. Former Vice President Richard M. Nixon asked for a coul-ing-off period while he threw crockery at New' York Gov Nelson A. Rockefeller. And while praising Sen. Barry M. Goldwater, he said the defeated presidential nominee should try to lead the party only if the Arizona senator’s views represent a consensus of Republican thinking. Rockefeller called Nixon “peevish” and said the Goldwater candidacy had divided the party and carried hundreds of Republicans down to defeat. Speaking more gently, former President Dwight D. Eisenhower said the GOP had been hurt but not wrecked. He said the GOP must rid itself of the “false image” that it was the party “for the rich and privileged.” Eisenhower said the next Republican presidential candidate “must represent a broad spectrum of political thinking” but he suggested no names. Gov. William W. Scranton of Pennsylvania also spoke of the GOP image and said it must be changed to show that it is not an exclusive organization. He thought various groups of party leaders should meet and discuss what course the party should

take.

These and other comments came from Republican leaders after Goldwater’s statement Wednesday that he had no intention of withdrawing from politics or pulling out of his fight for conservatism. In their search for a scapegoat, GOP critics of the Goldwater campaign were asking for the retirement of Goldwater's party chairman, Dean Burch, and John Grenier, executive director in national headquarters. One well-informed Republican source said the clamor for Burch’s scalp was coming from the grass roots, from GOP state legislators and members of Congress in normally safe districts who were buried in the Democratic landslide this week. Many names were being advanced for the party chairmanship, mcluding Nixon. Gov. Henry Bellmon of Oklahoma suggested Nixon, several governors and Ray C. Bliss, Ohio party chairman who has refused the job many times. Gov. Robert E. Smylie of Idaho nominated Gov. John Anderson of Kansas. Amo Resident's Services Monday William Taylor. S2.

Russ, Red China Split Smoothed Temporarily

-MOSCOW UPI — The long and profound quarrel between the Soviet Union and Communist China was smoothed over at least temporarily today for celebrations of the 47th anniversary of the Russian revolution. Premier Chou En-lai of Red China was one of the world Communist leaders on the guest list for a rally later today at the Palace of Congresses. Chou walked out on Soviet Premeir Nikita S. Khrushchev in that very hall three years ago. That was the public beginning of the Sino-Soviet dispute. Chou's presence in Moscow would have been unthinkable a month ago. But since then DePauw Band To Present Concert DePauw University's concert band, under the direction of Professor Dan Hanna, presents its first concert of the season this weekend, a seven-work program for Dads’ Day weekend guests. The 45-minute musical performance will begin at 7:45 p. m. Saturday in Meharry Hall. No admission will be charged for the public concert. Musical fare will include “Holiday for Winds,” “Concert No. 1 for French Horn” featuring senior music student Tom Gilkey, “American Overture for Band.” “Dahoon” with junior Linda Coleman as marimba soloist, “Pattern Percussion,” and “Django.” Featured in "Pattern Percussion” will be Rick Kress, bongos; Louise Tavenner, tymipani: Jim Ibbotson. tom tom; and Jack Spencer, buss drum. Oral Arguments INDIANAPOLIS UPI — The Indiana Supreme Court will hold oral arguments Nov. 17 on the so-called anti-Communist law 7 which has been on the books for several years but never has survived a high court test. However, arrest of three Indiana University students last year for attendance at a Young Socialists meeting in Bloomington created a situation which has produced the test.

Khrushchev has been fired. Chou and the new Soviet leaders want to test each other's mettle. Chinese Foreign Minister Chen Yi remarked in Algiers Thursday that Khrushchev’s downfall has opened up “new possibilities for the improvement of relations between Moscow and Peking.” The Chinese have indicated they would like to solidify the world Communist front against “U.S. imperialism.” But the new Soviet leaders, party First Secretary Leonid Brezhnew and Premier Alexei Kosygin, have made it clear they will continue to support peaceful coexistence and the international treaty which prohibits testing of nuclear weapons above ground. Both ideas are poison to Peking. Today, the Communist New China News Agency broadcast anniversary greetings to the Soviet Union. The greetings were signed by Chairman Mao Tzetung, President Liu Shao-chi and Chou. Rifes Held For Floyd Wright Last rites for Floyd Wright. 70, were held at the Powell Funeral Home in Coatesville, Wednesday afternoon with burial in the New Winchester Cemetray. Rev.
