High-rent habitat
WASHINGTON (NEAI - President Carter's penny,
pinching approach to government apparently doesn't
apply to his re-election campaign
The newly formed Carter campaign committee has set
up shop just a block and a half away from the White House,
in the heart of Washington's high-rent district
The prime location is the envy of Carter's would-be
Republican challengers, most of whom have been driven to
the suburbs for headquarters by the sky -high costs of office
space in downtown Washington
The Carter c ommittee is (lay ing $14 50 per square foot
for a year S lease on the three-story townhouse it is using
as a temporary campaign headquarters housing some 20to
25 political workers
That is actually a bargain rate for the choice location,
considering the fact that rents in nearby buildings can run
as high as $18 or $20 per square foot But the Carter
headquarters is nowhere near as large or lavish as the
offices occupied a few years back by President Nixon's
infamous Committee to Re-elect the President (CREEP)
Republicans Ronald Reagan, Jolin Connally, George
Bush and Phil ( rane have all set up campaign offices out in
the Virginia suburbs of Arlington and Alexandria, where
office space is considerably cheaper They are paying
rents ranging from about $6 per square foot (Reagan) to
$8 30 per square foot (Crane and Bush 1.
Senate Minority leader Howard H Baker Jr . got a
bargain-basement price of $5 50 per square foot for his
campaign headquarters, which is in Washington not far
from ( apitol Hill That 's because the location is in a rather
rough, high-crime neighborhood
The Carter headquarters is only temporary Campaign
officials say they will sub-let the building and move to
larger offices once the campaign heats up
All the candidates must pay the rent from political
contributions at this stage, since federal matching funds
won't become available until Jan 1, 1980 And Carter, as
an incumbent president, has a decided fund-raising edge
over his GOP challengers

council meeting was a most • horse
-:
Speaking of the Republican presidential contenders. it’s
worth noting that they're all in New Hampshire this
weekend for a $100-per ticket reception and dinner
sponsored by the state GOP.
All, that is, but frontrunner Ronald Reagan who
claimed a schedule conflict, and who in any event declines
to make joint appearances with his competitors for the
GOP nomination
Some GOP strategists believe Reagan is making a
serious mistake in refusing to share a platform with other
Republican contenders Audiences resent such stand
offishness, they claim, and other candidates take on added
sparkle in Reagan's absence
I hat s what happened last month in Indianapolis, when
John Connally walked off with all the headlines and a
straw vote lead from hundreds of Midwestern Republi-
cans who gathered to hear a half-dozen GOP contenders.
New Hampshire Republicans are easing an even larger
field Connally, Crane. Bush, Baker, Bob Dole, John
Anderson, Lowell Weicker, Jack Kemp Ben Fernandez
and yes even Harold Stassen
Will voters forgive and forget?
Consistency is apparently no virtue in the U S Senate
when cold cash is on the line Nineteen senators who voted
in favor of a 15 percent limit on their outside earnings back
in 1977 switched sides last week and voted to scrap the
ceiling
