Wednesday, December 12, 1973 THE MICHIGAN DAILY Page Three THEMIHIANDAIY-ag Tre Rockefeller resigns governorship of N.Y. The major farm commodities in terms of cash earnings in Utah are cattle, dairy products, sheep and turkeys. ALBANY, N.Y. (Reuter)-Nel- son Rockefeller announced yes- terday he is resigning as gover- nor of New York, a step most ob- servers saw as the opening move of his final critical goal - win- ning the presidency in 1976. Rockefellers resignation after 15 years as Republican governor of New York had been widely ru- mored for several weeks and he finally confirmed the speculation when he told a crowded press gathering he was turning the gov- ernorship over to Lieutenant-Gov- ernor Malcolm Wilson yesterday. Rockefeller has already made three unsuccessful attempts to win the Republican presidential nomination - in 1960, 1964 and 1968. And although his resigna- tion in advance of next year's New York state elections was widely interpreted as the begin- ning of a campaign for the presi- dential ticket for the 1976 elec- tions, Rockefeller said yesterday he does not now consider himself a possible candidate. Rockefeller said he nad decid- ed to resign because he "could render a greater public service to the people of New YoriK and the nation by devoting full time to the work of two bipartisan commissions." He added: "My one regret is that the undertaking of these tasks has been interpreted as a political maneuver to seek the presidency. I am not a candidate for the nomination for the presi- dency or for any other political office. Whether I become a can- didate in the future I do not know. I would like to keep my options open."~ By ruling himself out as a ca - didate at the present time, Rock- efeller does not have to adhere to the strict new federal stand- ards on campaign spending. He said he would ultimately decide on his presidential plans late ' in 1975. The two bodies Rockefeller said he wanted to devote his time to are the National Commission on Critical Choices for America and the National Commission on Wa- ter Quality. The Commission on Critical Choices is a much-heralded group! composed of 40 leading Amer- icans which is to analyse the im- pact of present world trends and the nation's future security and well-being. Observers have said the group could aid Rockefeller if he de- cides to actively seek the Presi- dential nomination by giving him continued national exposure. Although Rockefeller has den- ied he is using the organza- tion as a springboard for the nomination, its setup is rather unique. Up to 20 million dollars -some from Rockefeller and some from his millionaire broth- ers - will be used for tanedcom- mission. It will operate under the Rockefeller-established Third Century Corporation and the Rockefellers hope to get addi- tional government funds. Asked by reporters after he an- nounced his resignation whether this was the first step in a pre- sidential compaign, Rockefeller replied, "That's inaccurate from my point of view." In the first try in 1960, Rocke- feller had a famous confrontation with Richard Nixon at Rocke-a feller's Fifth Avenue apartment in New York city. When offered the vice-presidential spot by Nix- THE MICHIGAN PALLY Volume LXXXIV, Number 80 Wednesday, December 12, 1973 is edited and manag ed by students at the University of Michigan.
