AT LEAST every four years the
super patriots remind us that it is
every citizens right TO vote. Why:
Oh. because democracy is pre-
cious privilege and we must use it,
But it also is a privilege not to
vote. Sometimes many like to eX-
ercise the privilege of voting
against both candidates. We be-
lieve this will he the attitude of
many Democrats who will not vote
for the Republican candidate who
ever he may be-but who cannot
stomach the bureaucratic group
who have captured their own par
ty. When real choice is offered,
the vote is tremendous. and the
rascals are defeated. But when
both candidates for an office are
equally good. or equally bad. why
is the obligation of anyone to vote?

times. occasionally fills us with a
great WEAKNESS. TO us, ii is ques-
tiOnable that every man must reg
lister a choice when there is no
choice. It's just as logical to say
that everyone has an obligation to
listen to his radio. Sometimes we
try half dozen stations in search
of program that interests us.
And VIC tune them all out If Della
ware Republicans nominate a
strong ticket to be presented to the
voters. and we believe that such
ticket will be presented. the voters
in this state will support them for
there is a desire on the part of
thousands of disguised Democrats
and Independents TO support the
Republican candidates this year. a
strong ticket will bring out a large
vOte-thcir plea for an audience
