Suite 326 of the Old Senate Office Building used to be Robert A. Taft's lair, but its new appointments scarcely reflect the tastes of the man who was known as "Mr. Republican." Busts of John F.

There are plenty of such jobs, and many of them are being attacked by a flock of progressive Governors such as Rockefeller, Michigan's George Romney, Pennsylvania's William Scranton, Vermont's Philip Hoff, Oregon's Mark Hatfield, California's Pat Brown. New York has just enacted its own program for rehabilitating narcotics addicts, and last fall launched a $1 billion water-pollution-control program.
