What is the best tire to put on a 1964 Aloha travel trailer? It has a P205/75/R15...is that ok or is there better?

Trailer manufacturers normally indicate the correct tire size for a given trailer. This information is normally contained in the literature or on a plate on the trailer. Given that your trailer is vintage, this information may not be on it anywhere. If the tires you are using now sufficiently support the gross trailer weight then I would stick with them.
Fora 205/75-15 I recommend staying with a radial using # AM10245. This is the same size tire you have and will fit the same wheel. It is rated for 2,150 pounds at 50 psi. Radial tires track better and run cooler than bias ply tires. I have included a couple of links to help articles on trailer tires for you.
