New Orleans Fight Kennedy, Nixon Will Meet Today Aim To Resume Friendly Ties PALM BEACH, Fla. AP President elect John F. Kennedy will meet today with Vice President Richard M. Nixon, the man he vanquished Tuesday in a hard, tight, election.

The two former rivals, who fought each other for months all across the land, both are vacationing in -Florida. Kennedy will fly in the morning to Nixon's retreat at Key Biscayne, 10 miles south of Miami. The purpose of the meeting, said Kennedy press secretary. Pierre Salinger, is two-fold: "First, the; senator wants to congratulate the vice president on the campaign he conducted and. second, he wants to resume cordial relations with Vice President Nixon which existed in their 14 vears in Con gress together." Both Willing Each had expressed a willingness to meet in this period following the election.

And Saturday night. Salinger said, Kennedy! called the vice president and suggested getting together today. The fact that Kennedy is flying to see Nixon underscored Salinger's emphasis on a resumption of cordial. relations. But the press secretary declined to say whether the forthcoming meeting wonld attempt to establish something of a national government of greater: unity, or whether some role for! Nixon, perhaps in an advisory capacity, would be discussed.

Harsh Talk During the campaign, Kennedy and Nixon traded some pretty harsh language at long range. Kennedy said Nixon had presided over the decline of the national security and the communization of Cuba, for example. Nixon called Kennedy rash, immature, reck less, irresponsible. But two days after the election, at a news conference at his home at Hyannis Port, Kennedy told a questioner he hoped to have a chance to see Nixon before inauguration day. Jan.

According to O'Loughlin, th; fire started in a bedroom and spread rapidly throughout the building. Flames, he said, burst through two closed doors into a hallway.

Expected to Accept The governor is expected to ba offered the post of attorney general, and there is every indication he will accept it. There is a possibility of another cabinet post, but the attorney general's position is the one being talked about in Sen. Kennedy's vacation camp. There is one other possibility: That the governor may decide to hold up bis departure from ths Connecticut scene until a vacancy develops on the U.S. Supreme Court.

But the impression in informed quarters is that if the post of at-. torney general is offered, the gov ernor will accept it, and that ha will leave the governorship sosne-time before the presidential inaugural Jan. 20. The entire state government stracture is alerted to the probability that the governor's resignation is coming shortly. On Nov.

It would seem unlikely that Gov. Ribicoff would undertake these message preparations and then leave for Washington. Politi cal sense would dictate that Dempsey make the messages and carry out the Democratic program, since he will have to seek renomination and re-election in J962 on the Democratic performance in the 1961 session of the General Assembly. Further, if the governor accepts See RIBICOFF POST.
