The lawyer whose wife un the woman they admire This marks the second ron-jecutive year that Mrs, Kennedy has won top honors in this annual Gallup Toll popularity contest. In 10G1 Mrs.

Kennedy placed second on the list, behind Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt. Named next most often in today's survey, and making her first appearance among the top rankings, is Mrs. Lyndon B. (Lady Bird) Johnson, wife of the new chief executive.

Queen Elizabeth receives the third greatest number of mentions, having placed high on the list of the top 10 most admired women since her coronation in 1952. In fourth place is Sen. Margaret Chase Smith, whose name has recently figured in speculation over the 1964 presidential race. A newcomer to the list in ninth place is the controversial Mme. Ngo Diem Nhu, sister-in-law of the late president of the Republic of Viet Nam, whose recent tour of this country gained her much publicity.

Back on the list for the first time since 1)59 is Trinccss Grace of Monaco. Gallup Poll interviewers across the nation asked this regular year-end question of a nation-wide sample of both men and women: "Which woman that you have heard or read about, living today in any part of the world, do you admire the most?"

With his father, former Ambassador Joseph P. Kennedy paralyzed by a stroke since December Robert Kennedy inherits the mantle of family leadership, as the oldest surviving son.

"Bob is in a state of shock," said one of his closest associates. "He's been wounded in combat. He has to recover and only then can he really make a decision." Robert Kennedy is known to be weighing four alternatives: 1 the Democratic nomination for Vice President as President Johnson's running mate in 1964. 2 Stay in the Federal gov? ernment in a less controversial tired businessman. Mrs.

Kennedy plans to stay there and raise her two children, Caroline, 6, and John who was 3 the day his father was buried. There is a view of the Potomac River from a captain's watch on the top of the house. On the other side of the river is President Kennedy's grave, on a hillside in Arlington National Cemetery. The 34-year-old widow, who won the admiration of the nation for her courage and dignity after her husband's death, plans to observe a one-year period of mourning during which she will have no public engagements, it has been announced. She is not expected to play an active political role, but she is likely to continue as an important figure in the arts and in the cultural world.

There was one report current in Washington during the week that she would be named White doubtedly will agree will feel that actually he was the one who made out financially on the transaction. That's today. 'Yesterday, the. market place was still. Everything was closed.

There were no sellers. There were no buyers. No one made a nickel. The Boston Finance Commission, overseers of the city's fiscal operations, recently reported that such an unprofitable condition exists' day after day, as far as the city is concerned. I Among the.

Fincom's findings: Boston, landlord of the market area, is taking a sound hosing on the rental rates it charges. The city also comes out on the short end on sidewalk rental rates, while, at the same time, it discriminates somewhat against sidewalk, renters adjacent to, but not in, the market area proper. Nothing is done by the city to advertise vacancies when they occur among the 77 meat, produce and grocery stalls or the office space on the upper floors of the buildings. The Boston Redevelopment Authority, a prime tenant of the second floor of the Quincy Market occupying 10,000 square feet or more' than half the space available pays nothing in rent to Boston. The personnel structure of the Market- Division of th Real Property Board, which handles the market' operation, is top-heavy with supervisory people.

When dollars and cents in potential revenue to the city from the market properties are added and compared to actual money received, the figure is blatantly disquieting. Rental rates in the market place, unlike anything else imaginable in this atomic age, are on the downswing. 'Fincom investigation showed the rates, which have remained constant for the last 16 years, actually are 18.75 percent less than they were in 1929. r- In 1947, the mayor and city council approved a 25 percent increase in rents to tenants of the municipally-owned markets. But, this increase didn't even offset the previous change in rates a 35 percent decrease in 1929.

Sidewalk space rates, the Fincom stated, average about $1 per square foot. At the same time, market men occupying privately-owned buildings ad- -t Sri By DAVID WISE WASHINGTON The extraordinary vitality, the intelligence, the good looks, the money, the driving ambition, the strong sense of public service, the grace, the wit, the toughness, the Harvard voice and the sure Irish instinct for politics. And the smile. These are some of the qualities that combined to place the Kennedy family in an unparalleled position of power and prominence in the United States as the decade of the 'POs began. For John F.

Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States, all of this and life itself was snuffed out last month by two bullets fired from the rifle in the hands of a crazed assassin. Now he is gone. In this capital, only just beginning to recover from the sense of shock and shame at the appalling murder of the President of the United. States, discussion has centered for the past several days on what the future holds for the Kennedy family. In varying degrees, many of the same qualities that placed President Kennedy in the White House are possessed by the surviving members of his family.

The individual decisions that the members of the family now make about their own future may prove to be inextricably bound up in the future of this nation. That this is so, is perhaps best illustrated by a quote from "The Remarkable Kennedys," a book by writer Joe McCarthy, published (by Dial Press) in 1960. In it, the future President was quoted as having said he entered politics because his brother, Joseph P. Kennedy who planned a political career, had been killed in the war: "Just as I went into politics because Joe died, if anything happened to me tomorrow, my brother Bobby would run for my seat in the Senate. And if Bobby died, Teddy would take over for him." Although the tradition of the Kennedy family suggests that the prophecy contained in these words may be carried out now in some form, there are as yet no firm answers to the questions under discussion in every corner of the capital.

This is true for the simple reason that the members of the Kennedy family have not yet made any firm decisions about the future. But there are plausible alternatives and there is no doubt that these are under active consideration. ROBERT F. KENNEDY: At 38 and the father of eight Civil Rights stand. He has not endeared himself to the business community.

And he has drawn the attacks of those who dared not assail President Kennedy himself. For this reason, Robert Kennedy could choose either before or after the 1964 election, to step down into a job "out of the line of fire," a less controversial post that might enable him to repair his public image. The political picture for Robert Kennedy in Massachusetts is if not exactly bleak, not entirely encouraging either. His younger brother, Edward M. (Teddy) Kennedy occupies the Democratic Senate seat, and by all rights is entitled to run again in 1964 for a full six-year term.

Teddy is now filling out the unexpired Senate term to which President Kennedy was elected in 1958. The Republicans are expected to put up only token opposition to Teddy next year. The governor's chair is occupied by Endicott (Chub) Peabody, a former All-America football star who edged out Republican incumbent John A. Volpe in 1962 in an upset victory. There is no legal limitation on how many terms he can serve.

If Robert Kennedy sought the nomination for. governor, he might have a fight on his hands that would add to his "tough guy" image. A constitutional amendment expected to be approved by Massachusetts voters will make the governorship a four-year term starting in 1966. Conceivably, Gov. Peabody if he is re-elected might be persuaded to step down and run for the Senate that; year for the seat now occupied by Republican Senator Leverett Saltonstall.

In that case, Robert Kennedy could run for the first four-year term as governor of Massachusetts. It is not at all likely that Robert Kennedy would seek the Senate seat himself in 1966 if Sen. Saltonstall seeks reelection. The Kennedy and Saltonstall families are close and have a tradition of not opposing each other If Robert Kennedy did run for the Senate in 1966, and won, there would probably be two Kennedy brothers representing Massachusetts in the Senate, a situation that would be unusual but not impossible given the Kennedy popularity in the family's home state. MRS.

JACQUELINE KENNEDY: Last week, the President's widow purchased a 169-year-old home in Georgetown from Mr. and Mrs. James McMillan Gibson. Gibson is a re Three years ago, the nation debated whether a Catholic could be elected President. Today, ironically, the question is which Catholic should run for Vice President to fill the void left by President Kennedy.

Like Robert Kennedy, Shriver is a Catholic. While on the surface it would seem that Shriver and Robert Kennedy are now in the position of rivals for high political office, Shriver would almost certainly be obliged to defer to Robert Kennedy if the Attorney General wants the vice presidential nomination. Persistent talk that Shriver may run for governor of Illinois next year is denied by both the Peace Corps director and Mayor Richard "Dick" Daley of Chicago, Democratic boss of Illinois. Although Governor Kerner has handled some issues (notably birth con-trol) badly, he is strong down-state and could not be "dumped" by Mayor Daley without causing a party-splitting fight. SEN.

EDWARD M. KENNEDY: At 31, Teddy Kennedy has a seemingly bright political future. He beat Edward J. McCormack nephew of House Speaker John McCormack, by a huge 311,885 votes in 1962. He is expected to run and be reelected to a full six-year term in 1964.

Although he kept out of the limelight-largely to avoid embarrassing his older brother in the White House Teddy has quietly taken control of the Democratic Party in Massachusetts. He is good-looking, six foot two, has a beautiful blonde wife, Joan, and has much of the youthful charm President Kennedy had. In his home state, he has established a reputation as a formidable party fund-raiser. One recent Teddy Kennedy dinner raised $650,000 for the party treasury. STEPHEN E.

SMITH: Married to President Kennedy's sister, Jean, Smith has stayed behind the scenes more than any other member of the family. Business manager of his brother-in-law's 1960 presidential campaign, he has been overseeing the family for'tne in New York in recent mo. hs and also acting as trou jle shooter for the Democrats in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan. He has been spending from Wednesday to Saturday at the Democratic National Committee offices in Washington. Until the assassination, he had been planning the mechanics of the Presi- dent's reelection campaign.

Now, his future is uncertain. (Boston Eerald Tribune) lip '-t SARGENT SHRIVER post, such as director of the Alliance for Progress. 3 Return to Massachusetts and enter politics there. 4 Return to private life, perhaps as a university or foundation president. Given the Kennedy drive, and the family tradition, those closest to the Attorney General believe he will choose the first alternative and run for Vice President.

Robert Kennedy's supporters believe that President Johnson could not easily refuse the offer of the vice presidential nomination if the Attorney General wants it. On the other hand it is not forgotten here that at Los Angeles in 1960, Robert Kennedy's choice for vice presidential nominee was Henry M. (Scoop) Jackson. His brother selected L.B.J., however. Nevertheless, as a vice presidential candidate, the magic of the Kennedy name (and another Johnson-Kennedy ticket, albeit the reverse of 1960) might overcome the debit side of the Robert Kennedy political personality.

A strong-willed Attorney General, Robert Kennedy is unpopular in the South for his STEPHEN SMITH House special consultant on the arts, a post unfilled since August Heckscher resigned last June 16. SARGENT SHRIVER: The smooth, 48-year-old director of the Peace Corps, is frequently talked about as a possible vice presidential running mate for President Johnson. Shriver has several points in his favor. He is married to the late President's independent-minded sister, Eunice, and is thus a member of the President's family. Although therefore identified with the Kennedy family, he is in a sense apart from it, and theoretically can draw political benefit from Kennedy admirers as well as non-admirers.

Unlike Robert Kennedy, who has never been particularly close to President Johnson, Shriver is extremely close to the new President. His deputy director in the Peace Corps is Bill D. Moyers, 29-year-old protege of President Johnson who has moved into the White House with him. As Vice President, Johnson served as chairman of the Peace Corps National Advisory Council.

The Fincom said the city could be netting about $20,000 additionally per year by charging the B.R.A. rent, citing the lease between the agency and the city for-Tthe 10th and 11th floors of City Hall Annex as precedent. I The probe by the watchdog agency also disclosed no formal procedure is maintained for renting space when vacancies occur. Rather, news of the available space is expected to circulate informally through the trade.

There are seven positions in the market division. According to the Fincom, only six are needed the superintendent, the head clerk, who does the "actual management of the markets; a custodian and three watchmen who serve under him. -The Fincom estimates the city could realize a healthy annual saving by abolishing the post of deputy superintendent. The assistant's jol currently is unfilled. The post, 'with.

a salary approximating $7000, was vacated last month by the death of Edward J. (Knocko) McCor-mack Sr. of South Boston. Under existing statutes the city council establishes rental rates, supposedly on a three-year basis. In the last decade every city council has been cognizant of the unrealistic rate set-up.

But, much like the weather, the situation was merely a topic of conversation. Perhaps with a new council in the wings and a reaffirmation that the condition still prevails something can be done to change the books in Boston's favor.

She would like higher tobacco taxes to finance research on disease and safer cigarettes. Mrs. Neuberger hopes devoutly that the forthcoming report of the Surgeon General on smoking will not spare the horses and will give a big push to the matters she advocates. HERBERT BLACK. (Mr.

Neuberger'i burning point is probably too high for her to be a Carrie Nation and seek to wipe out cigarette smoking with an ax. Rather she uses a reasonable filter to sift out the facts on tobacco and health in this brief volume. "Prohibition," she writes, "is neither feasible nor compatible with our traditional freedom of choice." She wrote the book because she thinks moj approaches have been characterized by moral and intellectual poverty shrouded by the press agentry of the tobacco industry and pussyfooting by government health agencies. She begins by marshalling the statistics which are becoming familiar but which do not seem to inhibit cigarette smoking. "The chances of a heavy smoker dying of lung cancer is 64 times that of the nonsmoker," etc, etc Because people continue to think it is the other fellow who will get lung cancer or heart disease from smoking, she suggests other proposals to bring the point home.

'One is that a definite effort be made to keep young people and cigarettes apart Another is to have tobacco companies stop insinuating that cigarettes are a id to romance and perpetual youth. MRS. NEUBERGER She wants more experiments to produce a cigarette that will be safe to smoke, thinking that such a development may be scientifically possible. So far improvements in safety have resulted in losses in flavor and "Sure J'm using glue. You wouldn't wagj the waU full of KAxt, HOLES, would ya?" 4 i 4,.
