By Russell B. Roberts

The 1962 election approaches, political are already beginning to evaluate performance and the record of John Volpe, the Commonwealth's eventh governor.

'Corruption, Corruption, Corruption'

Volpe administration came into 16 months ago after a campaign which the issues, according to the nor, were "corruption, corruption, ." Since then, Volpe's greatest has been the eradication of that and his one great accomplishment he says, is the restoration of "de- and integrity in the affairs of the ."

the criticism that the Common- has been leaderless since his election Volpe can point out the Code of he established. To the suggestion, he is a figurehead, he can counter his resolution of the two abortive strikes; and to the hint that he is -noting," he can note the increased-efficiency of the Industrial Accident .

Republican governor has been , it is true, by the presence of legislature dominated by Democrats a Governor's Council which must move all his major decisions and is completely Democratic.

believes, however, that the council did not be abolished and seldom commands about the legislature. Recently, act, he praised a legislative commitment after it refused to approve 14 million dollars of the budget he had sub-. His only suggestion for strength- his post is that the governor be to appoint his own department directors.

Good Candidate

no matter how loud the content that he has done little becomes, will still receive the Republican and may very well be . He is a good candidate, has proved that he can conduct a successful , and is the incumbent, an important fact in Massachusetts. He is an , cocky little politician who smiles , grips firmly, talks like an MTA , and wins votes.

52-year-old governor was born in tallan district in Wakefield, the son tallan immigrants. He started in the business as a hod carrier later a journeyman plasterer, established his own building firm during the session of the 30's, and by the age of 40 had completed his Horatio Alger drive as a millionaire contractor.

He was appointed Massachusetts Commissioner of Public Works in 1953 and claims that more construction was carried out under his direction than any time before or since. For these accomplishments and his support in the Presidential elections, former President Dwight D. Eisenhower appointed him Federal Highway Commissioner in 1956.

Volpe was the only major Republican candidate to be successful in the state's 1960 campaigns, neatly brushing opponent Joseph D. Ward off John Kennedy's coat talls and back into his law practice. He has not yet announced his candidacy for re-election but will certainly do so, and will make a formidable candidate.
