Poor In Polls

When the last Gallup poll
reported on the Presidential
contenders. Mr. Nixon ran only one
percentage point ahead of Mr.
Muskie (when Mr. Wallace was not
included). They ran even with Mr.
Wallace entered. It appears that Mr.
Nixon may have to rely elsewhere
than the South for his "Emerging
Republican Majority."

Starting almost a full two years
before election day. Mr. Nixon
evidently recognizes that his actions
of the first two years of his
Administration have left a lot to be
desired. And if he wants to be
re-elected then he had better
change his tone and that of his
Administration.
