Barry Goldwater is still the first choice of Kansas Republican county chairmen as the strongest candidate for the partys presidential nomi nation and as the most likely to get the nomination.

But, a month after the assassination of former President Kennedy, the senators strength has declined. He is not nearly the overwhelming choice that he was in October. In an Associated Press poll of the 105 county chairmen, replies were received from 45. A Divided Vote Goldwater was named by IS as the strongest candidate for the nomination. Fourteen predicted the Arizona senator would be nominated at the national convention and one other divided that vote between Gold water and another potential candidate.

In October 4H of 52 replies named Goldwater as the strongest candidate and 3S predicted his nomination. The latest survey produced votes for former Vice-Presi dent Richard Nixon, Henry Cabot Lodge. Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York and even astronaut John Glenn a the strongest candidates.

Nixon, Rockefeller and Lodge trailed behind Goldwater as the most likely to be nominated. Notably, 26 of the 45 chairmen replying said their opinons had changed since the death of Kennedy. Nineteen said they had not changed their minds. Three chairmen would not speculate at this time as to the strongest candidate and 10 would not predict who would win the nomination. Names Are Omitted In the earlier poll former President Eisenhower had received two votes as the strongest candidate and Gov.

George Romney of Michigan had received two rites as the most likely to be nominated. Neither was named in the new survey.

Two officers from the Army ammunition procurement and supply agency in Joliet, 111., will arrive today to conduct the investigation, said Lt. Col Bruce Fierce, commanding officer.

Col. Fierce said the investigators will interview all employees who worked wilh Linder or were near the explosion site. The investigation probably will continue several das, he aid. The rums of the 20-foot-high, barricaded budding that Linder was in when it exploded, will be searched by the investigators in an effort to determine the blast cause, he said. The powder storage bunker was just north of Truman road near the south fence of the st a Uation.

Linder was employed as a primer mixer for the Remington-Arms company, the contractor-operator of the military installation. He apparently was making a routine check of the building when the blast occurred. Col. Pierce said. The body was taken last night by train to Mooresboro, N.

the home of his mother, Mrs. Ida E. Duncan. Linder was born Cherokee County, South Carolina, and lived here 13 years. English Family, Stranded, Is Far From Friendless The plight of a young English couple stranded here with a 3-month-old daughter and only $1 brought more than 30 offers of assistance and friendship last night, C.

H. Williams, manager of the Chase hotel, 911 Holmes street, said. Williams took the calls for Mr. and Mrs. Robert George Morris, who are staying as guests of the hotel, because they had already accepted an invitation to dinner last night.

Williams said one woman had offered to send a check, a man had given money, a union representative had asked about the possibility of finding Morris a job and many Kansas Citians had asked the young family to share Christmas dinner. The Morris family was found by police Sunday night, trying to sleep in an unheated car parked on a Kajisas City street. They explained that they were trying to sell their car to get money to live on. They arrived in Winfield, Kas. last July and came here Sunday night because Morris had been out of work since cold weather set in.

Leo Eisenberg developer, plans 60 units in five 2-story buddings, ranging in rent from $135 to $165 monthly. A swimming pool is planned. Construction is expected to begin in the spring, with completion by next fall. Louis D. Breyfogle, 8641 Marty street, an adjacent home-owner, objected.

He asked the planners to consider a buffer between the development and existing homes, south of Eighty-seventh. George W. Gagel, a state highway commissioner and an officer of the Y. M. C.

said the association had failed twice to obtain commercial zoning on the tract. He said apartments would probably be the least objectionable to adjoining property owners.

New York Times News Service) New York The teamsters union officially stepped into the battle yesterday to control the bargaining rights of 24,000 plant employees of the New York Telephone company.

It and an independent union filed petitions with the National Labor Relations board for a representational election among the employees, now represented by the Communications Workers of America. Aimed Also at Hoffa The Teamsters drive will have a double-barrelled purpose: to organize the workers and to weaken James R. Hoffas hold over the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. The Teamsters drive will be headed by two men. One is John ORourke, president of the Teamsters joint council 16 in New York and the only member of the international brotherhoods executive board who ever defied Hoffa on a national bargaining issue.

Hoffa is international president. The other leader is Harold J. Gibbon, vice-president of the international, whose resignation as Hoffas executive assistant is effective December 31. The immediate cause of Gibbons break with his chief was Hoffas alleged reaction to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

The campaign to represent the telephone employees will be conducted by the Teamsters on the local level, without Hoffas aid. Further, it was understood that ORourke and Gibbon hope that if the campaign is successful it will weaken Hoffas hold over the international. Resent an Image Their theory is that Hoffa has created an image of himself among Teamster members as the only creative, dynamic union leader in the U. S. The theory goes that if ORourke and Gibbon can get a representational foothold in the giant telephone industry without Hoffa it will help prove to Teamster members that they do not need the union president.
