For the Record

In the wind, the possibility that Franklin Delano Roosevelt Jr. will be put up against Nelson Rockefeller in ’62. Badly split Democratic Party in New York State feels Roosevelt might be good compromise candidate. . . . Private talks held in Albany last week between representatives of Richard Nixon and Rockefeller. Purpose: to determine future leadership, control of GOP. . . . Meeting of Republican National Committee in Washington, January 6,7 may give some indication of relative strength of two. . . . Many state GOP leaders angry at Nixon. They claim his inability, or unwillingness, to delegate authority resulted in paralysis of National Committee headquarters staff. Look for a big shake-up of Committee staff.

Senator Dodd (D., Conn.) hoping for berth on important Senate Foreign Relations Committee. (Dodd, a forthright and eloquent anti-Communist, being labelled the ’’new McCarthy” by SANEites.) . . . Moving fast among pacifist-fellow traveling organizations, Jerome Davis’ “Promoting Enduring Peace.” It has now mailed 4 million copies of Davis report on different “types” of freedom available in U.S. and USSR.
