LXXIII NO. 30 STORRS, CONNECTICUT UNCLE Supports ■fe^ Three-Man Presidency By REID PARRINGTON Campus News Analyst "Nixon for President would be good; Nixon and Humphrey would be great; but Nixon, Humphrey and Wallace as President would be out of sight;" Zev Rattet said yesterday, speaking from a booth in the lobby of the Student Union. The booth was set up by an organization known here as the United National Candidates for Law Enforcement (UNCLE). UNCLE is asking voters not to vote for just one of the three can- didates but all of them. Rattet said that the idea of separate political parties is not In the American tradition. "George Washington was against political par- ties '* he said. "After all, we are called the 'United States' not the ■Dissenting States'." The UNCLE spokesman pointed out that Nixon had written, "What we need is not one leader but many leaders, not one center of power but many centers of power." ("The Nixon Yearbook," page 95) Rattet said that UNCLE Is "non-partisan" and had "no prefer- ance for any one candidate." "The Presidency demands many talents and energies," he said. According to Rattet, the idea is not new." "Both Uruguay and Swi- tzerland have plural executives." he said. At the booth, campaign materials for all three major candidates were distributed free. The materials were buttons, bumper-stickers leaflets and brochures. A cookbook of Chinese dishes, published by the Le Choy Chinese Food Company was also being distributed by the UNCLE agents. Rattet said that he got them from a Republican campaign office in Rhode Island. UNCLE was asking interested persons to sign their membership list. At last report 63 persons had joined UNCLE'S ranks here. Along with Rattet at the booth Thursday were agents Bob Thurs- ton and Richard Hart. Later in the day Jeff Lavelle joined the group.
