Rockefeller-Goldwater: Their Political Stands
By United Press International
By United Press International Here is how Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller and Sen. Barry Goldwater stand on the issues which are likely to dominate next year's presidential campaign.
FOREIGN POLICY
Rockefeller — President Kennedy does not understand the seriousness of the Communist challenge or the importance of strengthening free world alliances. Has advocated working toward creation of a Western European nuclear force to be harnessed in partnership with a U.S. nuclear force. Recommended ratification of the nuclear test ban treaty, accompanied by other steps, including full use of underground testing. Has advocated trimming foreign aid as one way to deal with the balance of payments problem but has said it would be "catastrophic" to kill the program.
Goldwater—Advocates a more aggressive stance toward Communism and says that U.S. policy must be aimed at removal of Communists from power with an officially proclaimed goal of "victory" over Communism. Voted against nuclear test treaty on grounds it would endanger U.S. security. Has consistently voted against foreign aid and has favored economic aid limited to loans, techclinical assistances and Peace Corps projects.

CIVIL RIGHTS
Rockefeller—Has carried on a running attack against Kennedy on this issue, first for failure to press for far-reaching legislation. His more recent criticism has been aimed at administration efforts to soften the House judiciary subcommittee draft to improve its chances for passage. Supports the controversial proposal to prohibit, by federal law, discrimination in places open to the public.
TAX REDUCTION
Goldwater—Favors action to help enforce racial integration in schools but generally would depend on state action, persuasion and voluntary agreements to end discrimination. Opposes proposed public accommodations section of the civil rights bill.
Rockefeller—Urged cutting personal income taxes by $7.5 billion with the corporate income tax rate dropping from 52 to 47 per cent, both effective July 1, 1963. He also recommended abandoning the reforms proposed by the Kennedy administration, holding federal spending to the fiscal 1963 level and aiming for a balanced budget in fiscal 1965.
Goldwater—Says he favors tax reduction but that it should be accompanied by a cut in federal spending. He has criticized the administration tax program on grounds it does too little to encourage capital investment. He also has objected to the graduated feature of the personal income tax.
CUBA
review of those programs.
Rockefeller — Has accused the Kennedy administration of muffing two chances to sweep Communism from Cuba. Says U.S. goals must be removal of Soviet troops and restoration of freedom in Cuba.
Goldwater—Advocates joint action with other western hemisphere nations to impose a blockade and the training of an exile army which would get U.S. support for any effort to overthrow the Castro regime.
Rockefeller—Favors medical care for the aged financed by a payroll tax under the Social Security system but with an option allowing elderly persons to use their benefits to buy private insurance. Has said federal aid for education can be justified in states "with proven financial need." Has criticized the Kennedy programs and has urged $a
WELFARE PROGRAMS
Goldwater-Has written that the federal government should begin to withdraw from programs involving welfare, education, public power, agriculture, housing and urban renewal. More recently, has said he would try to stop introduction of new programs and to convince governors that the states could handle existing ones more cheaply. Opposes federal aid to education and medicare under the Social Security program. Has sponsored bills to give federal tax concessions for local taxes and other money spent on education.
Rockefeller—As governor of a populous eastern state, has said little about price supports, production control and the federal role in agriculture. Ducked a question last spring about how he would vote in the wheat referendum. Has said: "Too many people think of farmers in terms of what the government is doing for them rather than what farmers do for us. This false impression results from decades of political controversy over national farm policies."
FARM POLICY
about farm surplus means "prompt and final termination of the farm subsidy program." "The only way to persuade farmers to enter other fields of endeavor is to stop paying inefficient farmers for produce that cannot be sold at free market prices."
Although a Spanish film, it has never been shown in Spain. It is of such controversial nature that its presentation brought about the dismissal of the head of the Spanish all theater production by the Spanish government.
Goldwater - Doing something
Acclaimed 'Viridiana' To Be Shown Friday
The story depicts a young Spanish girl in a convent who is preparing to take her final vows. A visit to her home just before the event drastically changes her life and she never returns to the convent.
Winner of the Grand Prize at the 1961 Cannes Film Festival "Viridiana" will be shown at 7:30 p.m. today in Hoch Auditorium.
THE BELL TELEPHONE COMPANIES SALUTE: DON ESTES
Seven positions in four years indicate Don Estes (B.S., 1959) is a man on the move. But as Don observed when he joined the telephone company—the future was unlimited and he means to prove it.
Don's very first job carried the responsibility and challenge he wanted. As Frame Foreman, he was in charge of 12 people responsible for the connections which linked 50,000 telephones to the central office switching equipment.
Don found more responsibility and greater job satisfaction in larger assignments as he moved up to higher
jobs-Plant Foreman, Wire Chief, Repair Foreman, Division Records Engineer, Installation Foreman.
Today, Don is Test Center Foreman for Southwestern Bell at Wichita Falls, supervising the work of 51 people. His work brings him in daily contact with some of the latest technical developments in the communications field.
Don Estes, like many young engineers, is impatient to make things happen for his company and himself. There are few places where such restlessness is more welcomed or rewarded than in the fast-growing telephone business.
