Back in Washington this week, worn by his long vigil at the bedside of his dying father (see MILESTONES), Nixon was preparing to launch probably the most strenuous political campaign any Republican has ever waged. Flying in a chartered DC-6B, accompanied by his wife and a four-man staff, he will travel 14,136 miles, visit 32 states, make 50 speeches in three weeks.
