Danger
(Continued from Page 1)
President of all the people. He
could not understand why he
should be hated.
1 spoke ofhaving been a short
time in Mississippi. There I was
told by individuals who had been
threatened with violence by the
extremist groups that the safety
of the President nor his brother
Robert, the Attorney General,
could be guaranteed if they came
into the state. The impression
was so deep-rooted that acts of
desperation could not be prevent~
ed, Some of this I had put in my
column.
“Yes, I saw that," the President said. "But I don't want to
believe it. I can't believe that
that can be true.
“Of course, we get a lot of
letters in here that are pretty
strong. They're violent even. And
I'dbe glad to have you see sam~
ples of those. But hasn't there always been that sort of thing?”
Wetalked briefly of the attack
on Adlai Stevenson outside the
the hallin Dallas where he spoke
on United Nations Day. Stevenson was hit over the head by a
sign-carrying rightist and spat on
by a student as extremists shoved
in at him when he left the hall
following his speech.
“He told me," the President
said, “that the ovation he got in
the hall from sev eral thousand
people was one of the warmest he
ever received, Yet it was the 50
or so outside who made the headlines. That's often the way it is
--the people onthe fringe get all
the attention. "
Still another characteristic was
evident as he talked.
Mr. Kennedy thought of himself as more conservative than the
liberals who supported him in his
own party. He said:
“You know when I first ran for
Congress in 1946 I believed pretty
much the line that the centralization of our government had gone
so far that it was a great danger
and that we were likely to spend
ourselves into bankruptcy. So I
can understand these people. And
if they don't read anything else,
and you know in a lot of places
the newspapers carry nothing but
this sort of thing, how can. they
reach a judg ment on what the
situation really is.“
When we got into the coming
campaign year he was full of zest
and seemingly without any serious
concern over a struggle that would
make such heavy demands on his
time and energy. With all of the
South gone, he said, and then
amended himself to add, or most
of it, we'llhaveto go after states
we didn't carry last time. He
laughed about Senator Barry Goldwater, saying, “Let him go, let
him alone. Barry's doing just
fine."
This was a highly competitive
man who wanted to win not only every game but every inning of
Didn’t See'
they gave was that rabid hatred .

every game. With this went a
spirit of derring-do, bravado almost, that often led him to defy
danger. On his trip to New York
a week before his death he declined a police escort, taking his
chances on the tangle of traffic
in the city to the consternation
of the New York police force.
Although the two major pieces
of his program, the tax and the
civil rights bills, were bogged
down in Congress, he seemed undaunted. His mood wasin marked
contrast with that of a visit I had
with him in the oval study upstairs somewhat more than a year
after he had taken the oath of office. Speaking of his 14 years in
the Congress and his 15 or so
months in the Presidency he said
ina somber vein that he had begun to wonder if the country was
governable at all.
Now on this bright, clear evening he seemed a seasoned man,
a man who had met the initial
test and who had no doubt of his
ability to meet the challenges
still ahead. He had mastered the
most difficult job in the world
and if he had any qualms about
the future he gave no sign of it.
That is the terrible irony of the
moment when the bullet of a
madman snuffed out his life.
