Analysis of survey data on party identification in US presidential elections from 1952 to 1964 (N's=1,614; 1,772; 3,021; 1,418, respectively), collected by the Survey Res Center, U of Michigan, suggests that L. B. Johnson's victory over B. Goldwater in 1964 was not due to the defection of Republicans in that yr. Rather, it was due to a shift away from the Republican Party that began in 1956. In addition, almost 66.6% of the R's calling themselves Independents in 1964 (N=224) voted for the Democratic candidate. The Democrats were victorious at the polls despite the facts that numerically, Republican defections were almost equaled by Democratic defections, & turnout was higher among Republicans than among Democrats. These data cannot be used to predict the outcome of the 1968 election, since the intensity of att's & the presence of a strong 3rd party suggest that 1968 will be a critical election in the US. AA.

A report on a survey designed to determine whether whites & Negroes differ signif'ly in their pol'al orientations. The survey was made in Petersburg & Norfolk, Va, in Oct 1967. Samples of white & Negro pop's which represented cross-sections of adult pop's (134 whites & 144 Negroes in Petersburg; 78 & 259 in Norfolk) were interviewed on att's towards private, public & federal involvement in a state program to aid the handicapped. From data presented in 7 tables, it is concluded that, while the majority of H's of both races had never heard of the state program, differing pol'al orientations emerged with regard to private implementation & federal involvement in the program. About 75`,; of the Negroes favored gov (esp Federal) implementation, while nearly a majority of the whites favored private or 'mixed' implementation. It is concluded that interracial diff's in pol'al orientations are not simply a function of class cliff's. I. Langnas.
