One day,-rhetoric
won't be enough
EARLY LAST WEEK President Nixon vetoed two meas-
ures -- one concerned with education, the other with
housing -- because the bills appropriated one billion dol-
lars more than the nation's- budget asked for. A short
time later, the Senate, bowing to pressure from the White
House, voted to extend the Safeguard Antiballistic Sys-
tem (ABM), and spokesmen for the administration indi-
cated that the President was pleased by the bill's passage.
These two actions reveal the difference between Pres-
ident Nixon's stated positions and his actual actions. Re-
peatedly during his nineteen months in office, the Presi-
dent has emphasized his desire to achieve peace in the
world so that additional funds may be directed at the
country's pressing domestic needs; however, continually
during his term, members of, the administration as well
as the President himself have elected to concentrate on
war expenditures rather than domestic expenditures -
pleading inflation - as he has vetoed bills that would
have improved housing, hospitals and education.
If the President is so concerned about stopping the
rampant inflation, he could just as easily reduce expen-
ditures for defense - the $20 billion planned for ABM
would be a good start.
As things stand now the hopes of many citizens are
continually being raised and then dashed to the ground
simply because Mr. Nixon feels we can not afford the
funds to begin working on many of the domestic ills.
The President apparently feels that if he continues
to say he favors domestic reform, the nation will ignore
the fact that he is continuing to emphasize defense and
maximize the influence of the military-industrial com-
plex. So far these policies have worked, but the power of
rhetoric eventually failed Lyndon Johnson. It may yet
fail Richard Nixon.

THE MICHIGAN DAILY
.JAMES WECHSLER-
Straddling the fence:
Goldberg vs Rockefeller
For Direct Classified Ad Service, Phone 76
12 Noon Deadline Monday through Friday, 10:00 to 3:00
ARTHUR GOLDBERG has won
the first psychological round
in the gubernatorial battle. The
bookmakers have pronounced him
the underdog - with the odds
running nearly 2-1 in Gov. Rock-
efeller's favor. According to near-
ly every modern school of political
strategy, the posture of early fav-
orite is, to put it simply, unfavor-
able, and the Governor was quick
to disparage the appraisal of the
gambling fraternity.
But apart from all other con-
siderations, there is one very tan-
gible reason for the advance es-
timates. The word is around that
Goldberg is facing an acute short-
age of campaign funds with no
prospect of any miracle relief.
In part the problem is not uni-
que to his campaign. In fact the
diminution in available campaign
resources, reflecting the stock
market decline and general finan-
cial uncertainity, is being felt by
candidates in m a n y areas and
m a y prove a critical factor in
close races.
But the impact of the develop-
ment may be pecularily heavy in
contests where one candidate -
in this instance Gov. Rockefeller
- confronts no threat of finan-
cial deprivation. It is assumed
that he will conduct his campaign
in the style to which he has been
accustomed. In 1966, Rockefeller
recorded expenditures of $5.2 mil-
lion; Goldberg's suporters see no
possibility of raising half t h a t
amount and, by present indica-
tions, may fall significantly below
$2 million while Rockefeller ex-
ceeds all h i s previous budgets.
Dick Ottinger's Senate campaign
will be well-financed, as was his
primary, but it will produce no
necessarily large dividends for the
head of the ticket.
THE FISCAL DISPLAY may
partially explain why the book-
makers have been unimpressed by
private polls that still show Gold-
berg in the lead (although by con-
siderably less than when his can-
didacy was first projected).
On the other hand it is con-
ceivable that the heavy thinkers
in Las Vegas may be underesti-
mating the ideological dilemmas
facing t h e Rockefeller camp.
These could become steadily more
acute. They could conceivably
matter more than money.
A recent report of private ne-
gotiations for an entente cordiale
between the Rockefeller forces
and the Conservative Party spon-
sors of the Senate candidacy of
James Buckley evoked swift de-
nial from the Governor and even
provided the widely - advertised
Rockefeller harmony meeting with
Sen. Goodell. Yet, as the cam-
p a i g n progresses, Rockefeller-
Buckley promoters are likely to
become increasingly visible.
For Rockefeller must regard the
possibility of a major Conserva-
tive Party defection- - spreading
from the Senate to the guberna-
torial 1 i n e "- as the potential
nightmare of 1970. Presumably
the dominant pressures on him
are to appease that flank. In that
sector the litmus test will be his
attitude toward t h e Nixon Ad-
ministration.
IN APPARENT anticipation of
that awkwardness, the Governor
has suggested that the contestants
concentrate on "state issues." But
can he effectively maintain that
posture if the Vietnam war drags
on, the economy lags a n d this
state - like all other states - re-
mains a victim of federal under-
nourishment in large measure
attributable to those conditions?
When the debate is forced into
those realms - as it will be - the
Governor is likely to find Gold-
berg a far more articulate, ani-
mated campaigner than he was in
a primary in which he detected
no great fighting issues.
He will also be tormented by
harsh decisions as to how he can
placate and sedate the right with-
out fatally losing the liberal sup-
port that gave him the margin of
victory in h i s previous battles.
How difficult this task can be he
has already been illustrated by his
labored comments on Cambodia.
IN SHORT, barring_ some ex-
traordinary changes in the world
and the nation between now and
autumn, Rockefeller will be haunt-
ed by the shadow of Richard Nix-
on and Spiro Agnew. Whateer
his other troubles, Goldberg has
no equivalent political crises on
his own side. There are no con-
flicts of serious substance between
the Democratic and Liberal plat-
forms, nor is Goldberg's endorse-
ment of Ottinger destined to cause
him any embarassment with Lib-
eral Party voters because of their
party's support of Goodell.
In 1968, despite all the Demo-
cratic agonies of that year, Hu-
bert Humphrey was able to carry
New York State by nearly 400,000
votes. Certainly Mr. Nixon's ap-
peal - or lack of it to New York
voters can hardly be equaled with
Gov. Rockefeller'sbdemonstrated
vote-getting prowess in New York.
But can the Governor successfully
differentiate himself from Mr.
Nixon without inviting a head-on
collision with the Conservatives?
Or must he in fact give asteadily
higher priority to the wooing of
the Buckley-bent bloc? Is there
any tightrope strong enough to
sustain him or will he be caught
in midair, his convictions, o n e
might say, blurred by suspended
sentences?
There is at least a chance that
the bookies may be revisingtheir
form charts as the campaign gets
underway.

PARTY TIMJ
By RICHARD L. ARKIN
WHILE HUNDREDS of thous-
ands of rock fans grooved at
Goose Lake and 10,000 blues lov-
ers filled the Huron Highlands
last weekend, nearly 8,000 Ann
Arbor circus freaks swarmed
across town to two performances
of the Clyde Beatty-Cole B r o s.
Circus - the last major tented
circus still touring in the U.S.
This was a real old-timey cir-
cus with a big top and a side-
show and a steam calliope. It was
not the antiseptic, air-conditioned
arena show that promoters have
been passing off as circus-for the
past few years. It was -three rings
under canvas, on grass and saw-
dust and straw, with a big top
bigger than a football field. It
was filled with lions and tigers,
aerialists and clowns, jugglers and
risley artists, tightrope walkers
and bally broads, dogs and ponies,
teeterboard acrobats and trapeze
flyers, and two dozen performing
elephants. Banner - line posters
with vivid illustrations of the
freaks, sword-swallowers and fire
eaters in the sideshow lined the
midway, while hawkers and bally-
hoo artists exhorted the crowd to
see the wonderous sights inside
the magic tents. And throughout
the day and evening, the circus
band blared on.
ONCE THERE WERE hundreds
of shows like this one - Sells-
Floto, Hagenbeck-Wallace, Mills
Bros., Hunt Bros., the Great Fore-
paugh, and Ringling Brothers-
Barnum and Bailey. But Ring-
ling, now j u s t a shadow of its
former -self, has exchanged tra-
dition for a kind of Las Vegas
slickness, and has dumped its big
tent to appear in sanitized, mod-
ernized, plasticized and abbre-
viated form in sterile air condi-
tioned arenas and halls. All the
others are gone - all but this one
and a handful of tiny competitors
that tour under canvas, striving
to keep the true circus tradition
alive.
Although Clyde Beatty is dead
now, the show that b e a r s his
name still prospers, despite $10,-
000-a-day costs and a shortage of
good performers and dependable
roustabouts. Every April the show
moves out of Florida on a fleet of
nearly a hundred trucks and
trailers - no more circus trains-
and in the next 40 weeks, travels
more than 12,000 miles as it tours
the cities and towns of the East,
Midwest and South. Each day, the
circus moves into a new town,
sets up its tents, gives two per-
formances, tears down, loads its
equipment and animals, a n d
drives to another stand 50 to 250
miles down the road.
LATE LAST THURSDAY night,
300 showmen and tons of equip-
ment of t h e Beatty-Cole circus
slipped into town. By late morn-
ing, nearly '20,000 square yards of
canvas had been reeled off mas-
sive spool trucks and had risen
over a grassy field at Packard and
Carpenter Roads. The 150 by 300
foot big top, which' rises 55 feet
into the air, was at the center of
the lot, surrounded by the cook
tent, the sideshow tent, the clown
alley, dressing tents, concession
stands, trailers, trucks and wa-
gons, and two diesel power gen-
erators. The cook tent had been
the first to go up and would be
the first to leave that night, and
early in t h e morning, delivery

grocers dropped off the massive
quantities of food to be- cooked for
the hundreds of circus people.
Elephants in working harnesses
provide the muscle to raise the
tent on its four massive center
poles, while 50 quarter poles in
two rows around them help to
bear the weight of the canvas to
the 72 poles along the sidewalls.
400 stakes driven into the ground
anchor the big tent, while eight
miles of rope steady it and give it
flexibility in wind and rain.
Circus families like the Suarez
troop from Mexico, who work the
liberty horses, and the Ferreiras
from Colombia, who do a perch
balancing act, have traditionally
dominated American shows. Acts
were handed down from genera-
tion to generation, and when a
family outgrew an act, it would
break up into two or more groups,
sometimes doing similar turns for
competing shows, or often per-
fecting additional skills and doing
different acts in the same show.
Even marriage was dominated by
the circus, with the choice of hus-
band or wife being largely deter-
mined by the families of the pros-
pective candidates on the ability
of the intended to fit into the
family act, and with the kids be-
ing pressed into service sometimes
even before they could walk.
FOR 150 YEARS; tented circus-
es have toured America. O n c e
there were many; now there are
only a few. Perhaps someday they
will exist only in memory. But
for now, Clyde Beatty-Cole Bros.
Circus still carries its unique
magic from town to town, setting
up its tent city on an open field,.
casting its spell upon thousands of
children, then folding up its tents,
and vanishing into the night,
leaving only peanut shells, pop-
corn boxes, the faint odor of ele-
phants and tigers, and the hollow
echo of a child's laughter.
