By FRANK CORMIER
WASHINGTON (M-Jolted by
sagging popularity and political
reserves, President Johnson is
working hard at changing his pub-
If he succeeds, the emergence
of a new LBJ may become the
most significant politicaly devel-
opment of 1967.
Conceivably, the outcome of
next year's presidential election
may turn on the success or failure
of Johnson's efforts.
There can be no doubt now that
the new year has produced a new-
model LBJ. Johnson's closest
White House associates speak of
the transformation with enthu-
siasm
It is true, they say, that in bQth
.public statements and personal
appearances Johnson has changed
pace and altered his style.
The President now presents him-
self in low key: restrained, cau-
tious, tolerant of the other fel-
low's opinion-even it it differs
from his own-and, in the case of
Congress. scrupulously mindful of
the prerogatives of the indepen-
dent legislative branch.
Whether his private words and
deeds will mirror this image re-
mains to be seen. Aides predict
they. will. Further, they say the
latest adJustment of Johnson's
behavior patterns will be enduring
--and it is their confident fore-
cast that the result will be a re-
surgence of presidential popular.
ity..
Johnson's associates insist that
the new LBJ was not created by
any Madison Avenue magician but
by the President himself; that it
reflects his own decisions spurred
by adversity and moulded by the
very process of growing accustom-
ed to occupying the highest office
in the land.
However the altered style came
about, Johnson no longer plays
the part of the itinerant medicine
man, making bombastic claims for
"Great Society" elixers.
In Vietnam, he no longer pro-
fesses to. see a trace of light at
the end of the tunnel. "We face
more cost, more loss and more
agony,' he told Congress and the
nation a month ago.
As for the channel lineup in
Congress, Johnson now seems
more willing to concede that the
November balloting went against
him. "I think it is going to, be

more difficult to obtain favorable
action on administration meas-
ures," he told a recent news con-
ference.
In addition, Johnson's often-
frenetic pace has been subdued. He
has made no full-length speeches.-
outside Washington since mid-
October, except for appearances
required during his autumn trip
to Asia and the Pacific.
Perhaps most significant of all,
Johnson this year has made only
one public reference to the Geat
Society. The President, of course,
is mindful that the phrase "New
Deal" became an epithet to a sig-
nificant minority who voted
against his original political idol,
Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Four developments converged
last fall to disturb Johnson's
equanimity: the election returns,
the marked slump in his popular-
ity as measured by the pollsters,
the rebellion of Democratic gov-
ernors who voiced open criticism
of his leadership. and increasing
talk that he suffered from a cred-
ibility gap.
The result was some presiden-
tial agonizing and soul-searching
during Johnson's recuperation
from November surgery to remove
a throat polyp and repair and ab-
dominal hernia.
Johnson retired to his Texas
ranch and remained there for sev-
eral weeks, keeping largely out of
sight and-silent.,
Finally, on Dec. 31, the President
stepped through his curtain of
silence and, in the airplane hanger
at the ranch. went before tele-
vision cameras and radio micro-
phones for a year end news con-
ference.
In that session, Johnson was
low key: restrained, cautious, tem-
perate. This, it now seems appa-
rent, was the trial run of the new
LBJ.
Today, some six weeks later, the
pattern is taking shape: -John-
son is described by aides as de-
termined to avoid extravagant
statements. Although the Presi-
dent believes the "credibility gap"
was largely a myth, they say he
doesn't want to do anything that
would add to that particular prob-
lem.
Thus, at his most recent news
conference, he twice emphasized
he was speaking "in all candor."
And in citing unpleasant facts, he
emphasized at least eight times

1 4/
his reinforced sense of caution
and restraint by prefacing his re-
marks with such phrases as, "I
must say," "I cannot report," "I
cannot say" and "we cannot speak
with cold assurance on.."
-The President is rationing his
public appearance quite deliber-
ately, lest the voters tire of seeing
his face and hearing his voice on,
television and radio. He sometimes
stays out of camera range for four
or five days at a stretch.
-Johnson is making new efforts
to narmonize his sometimes-#
stormy relations with the Wash-t
ington press corps. It is his pres-
ent intention to invite television
and radio coverage of about one
news conference per month, and
to announce these sessions several
days in advance so any interested,
newsman can make appropriate
plans.
-Even if political imperatives
largely prompted the adjustments
in Johnson's demeanor, there may
be an important truth in this ob-
servation by one close adviser:
"Johnson is getting used to the
presidency."
This source said the President
finds it easier now to ignore many
of the trival concerns that former-
ly bothered him.

PRESENTING
CONVAIR
...A Great Name in Aerospace

.=__

i

T he Convair Division of General
Dynamics Corporation is one of the
largest and most sophisticated
aerospace and research firms in the
country. It was formed in 1965 through
the merger of two divisions of General
Dynamics: the old Convair Division and the
Astronautics Division, both in San Diego.
The heritage of Convair dates back to
aircraft production prior to and during
World War II. In recent years the former
Convair Division produced the Air Force
F-102 and F-106 jet interceptors, the 880
and 990 jet transports, and the Little Joe
solid rocket booster. The Astronautics
Division was the home of the Atlas, the first
free-world ICBM, and the subsequent
development of the Atlas as one of the
nation's major space launch vehicles;
many other aerospace and research
programs were undertaken by Astronautics
including Centaur-the first U.S. space
rocket powered by liquid hydrogen.
Company Description
Convair is primarily involved in research,
development and production connected <
with the aerospace industry. Its primary
efforts are In complete systems and
programs.The spectrum includes space
launch vehicles, electronics systems,
maneuverable re-entry vehicles, commer-
cial and military aircraft and oceanographic
research.
Major programs include the Atlas space
launch vehicle; the Atlas/Centaur booster
program used to put the Surveyor space-
craft on the moon; the design and installa-
tion of complete telemetering stations;
conversion programs on Convair military
and commercial aircraft; satellite research;
manned space systems, and oceanographic
telemetering buoys.

Special Features and Attractions
Convair offers outstanding fringe benefits
including an Employee Savings and Stock
Investment Plan to which the Company
contributes as well as a Retirement Plan
and Tuition Assistance Programs. Convair
employees can select from many company-
sponsored educational assistance pro-
grams and determine for themselves which

ments. These programs, held in conjunction
with four highly rated local colleges and
universities, includeatuition refund plan,
an irregularworkweek to permit college
attendance, an advanced-degree work-
study program, special courses and
seminars, and Doctoral Fellowships,
among others.
One of the nice things about working at
Convair is living in San Diego... one of the
country's truly great resort centers. With
only 10 degrees difference between Janu-
ary and July highs, the sunny San Diego
climate is pleasant throughout the year.
Two great bays and 70 miles of ocean
beaches provide all-year aquatic sports
and fishing. Exciting Mexico is just a few
miles away. Nearby mountains, a world-
famous zoo -and a marine park add to the
fun... plus 64 golf courses foryear'round
play. San Diego is an ideal family city with
excellent schools. As the country's 16th
largest city, San Diego offers the best in
cultural attractions, performing arts, pro-
fessional sports, and other entertainment.
