'HoIdup Of Mineral Wells

Let the Three Hoosiers" know that
they have company in their decision as
lifelong Republicans to not vote for
Taft II he is nominated by dint of the
tactics employed at the Holdup of Min
eral Wells. Shades of Billy the Kid
and the Reichstag Fire! One is simply
dumfounded that such coup is pos
sible in the United States in the year
1852.
H. Blakely Harvey. Jr.
The steamroller tactics by which Taft
supporters are overriding expressed
wishes of voters in some Southern States
is. disappointing to many of us. We
have hoped that this year we might
have an opportunity to vote for some
one other than professional politician
picked by well-oiled political machine.
Contention of the Taft faction that
the Eisenhower supporters are Demo-
Gratis who have just recently changed
parties Is a weak excuse. According
to the Bible there is more JOY in Heaven
over one sinner who repents than over
SO righteous men who need no re-
pentance. BY this token, ex-Demo--
Gratis who have seen the light should
be welcomed with open arms, because
there are just not enough registered
Republicans to elect a President.

Democratic Party. am heartily
ashamed Of having been affiliated in
any way with the party that spawned
Harry s. Truman and the Missouri

that have never voted for him, either
for Vice President or for President and
I voted only once for Franklin D.
Roosevelt.
This fall I shall support the Repub-
lican candidate in every way possible

more important than the candidates. I
fear, however, that If Taft supporters
persist in thwarting the will Of the

majority by such tactics as they appear
to be using they may ALLEVIATE enough
voters to give us four more years of
Social-crat administration. BY the end
OF four more years. a Democratic Presi-
dent may decide in his omnipotent
judgment that the safety Of the coun-
try demands the elimination of free
elections, and by that time he may
have been able to appoint a Supreme
Court which will uphold him. This may
sound fantastic, but Hitler's Germany
would have sounded fantastic a few
years before he gained power.
w. B. Penn.
Facts about the Texas Republican
delegate matter have been left unstated
and grossly misstated throughout the
country.
Many, entirely too many, of these
newcomers into the Republican ranks
stated they were Democrats and would
vote the Democratic ticket.
Had they come in fairly to put over
their aims with the existing party ma
chinery, they would have been accorded
every courtesy but instead they tried to
throw out all Of the existing Repub-
hcan machinery and take over COM
pletely. And had they succeeded, they
woud have done exactly as they were
done to. ~e.
F. L. Cook.
Open, fragrant, barefaced betrayal of
the voters who desire to change the
present corrupt administration is being
perpetrated by the Taft machine With
the not-even-veiled slogan echoing from
Texas. It'd rather lose with Taft than
win with Eisenhower" Party Bosses
Reece and ingalls, are getting set to
nominate a candidate who cannot win.
Unless I close my eyes and ears
cannot help knowing that Taft is:
l. Not the choice of the majority
of Republicans.
2. Not the choice of the independent
voter
3. Not the choice Of the dissatisfied
Democrat.
All three of these are needed to
elect Republican President.
But the party bosses are selling down
the river those Republicans who-not
for the sake of regaining petty political
control but for the good Of the coun-
try and the world-desire to win this
election.
Lbelieve that Eisenhower is the choice
OF the three elements mentioned above
and therefore that he can be elected.

Enter the Cosmotron

News of the cosmotron, whose con-
struction was recently completed, is re-
ceived by the causal observer with
elation comparable to what mans must
have been when first he discovered the
principle of the bow. and in flash of
sheer genius invented the bow and ar
row. The tremendous voltages Of which
the cosmotron is capable, and its ca
pacity for whirling an electron at speeds
approaching that Of light, leave the lay
man aghast! It promises to be an in
calculable aid In the ceaseless quest for
knowledge-the interminable inquiry,
which began that morning when first
man became conscious Of himself.
The observation has been made that
man cannot hope to solve the problems
of nature that confound him, until first
he fathoms the mysteries of the elec-
tron-the building block of the universe.
It has been Speculated that given per-
feet knowledge of the electron, it would
be theoretically possible to predict the
history Of the world for all time to come.
The imagination is excited by the prom
Use that with the astonishing power of
the cosmotron it will be possible to
plumb the depths of the electron and

The electron has never been a more
bathing and mysterious thing than it is

as q relatively simple particle, with it's
nucleus. its protons and its neutrons.

Transit Commission

Again it looks as though Washington
residents are to become victims of polit-
ical patronage that will probably lead to
poor administration of an agency in
tended to solve major civic problem.
The bill reported out by the Senate
Commerce Committee provides for a
three-man transit commission with
power to fix transit rates, etc. But, and
this is big BUT, 1t provides for the
three persons heading this commission
to be appointed by the President subject
to confirmation by the Senate. And it
provides for each of these three to be
paid SIS, 900 year (nice, juicy political
plums).
Any politically minded administration
(and name one that wasn't) would un-
questionably use these posts to further
its own selfish interests and to pay off
real or fancied political debts. Also, ex-
perience indicates that the probable
overall cost of administration of such
an organization will run in excess Of
100000 year.
It's high time we had some such gov
erning body to protect the interests Of
the hundreds Of thousands of transit
riders. But proper administration Of
such specialized body can only come
from having it headed by the most
highly skilled, painstakingly trained and
thoroughly experienced persons that
can be had-and these should be indi-
viduals who cannot be Influenced by
politics or money. The most stringent
job specifications should be set up for
these positions, and appointment to
them should only come as the result of
competitive examinations administered
under the most exacting civil service
regulations. Anything less will be
travesty upon honesty and a gross i'm
position upon taxpayers and the hun
dreds Of thousands who use the transit
facilities daily.

OUR soCIAIIsTTC ECoNoMY

If you have any tiny, lingering
doubt that the United States of
America is running, not walking
toward a, socialistic economy, /
would like to pass on few statis-
tics which were gathered together
by the First National Bank of
Boston.
In 1918, the ratio of federal ex-
penditures to national income was
only 8 per cent, while currently it
is around 81 per cent. If this ratio
continues to increase at the same
rate as in the last forty years,
within a few decades federal ex-
penditures would swallow up the
entire economy.
1t is estimated that 81 million
persons now receive checks from
Federal, state and local govern
ments. This list includes govern
nent workers; recipients of pub
lie assistance, Social Security pro-
grams and unemployment insur-
ance; government pensioners; vet
erans; farmers under agricultural
benefits and subsidy programs;
and the Armed Forces.
Federal, state, and local gov
ernments sponsor about 800 well
fare plans, expenditures for which
aggregate around $23 billion an
nually and account for more than
one third of all government tax
dollars.
While the Federal Government
is aggressively carrying on cam
paign for comprehensive and lib
eral social security, it has been
undermining the foundation of
the program by diluting the pur-
chasing power of the dollar
through deficit financing during
eighteen of the past twenty-one
Years. BY following unsound fis-
cal policies, the government is
making it increasingly difficult
for the American people to pro-
vide for their own security, and
this in turn compels them to turn
to the government for aid.
Through subsidies, hand outs,
and ceaseless propaganda, the Ad-
ministration is carrying favor for
a planned society under which
the Federal Government would
be supreme. AS stated at the out
set of this article, the United
States of America is running, not
walking, toward a socialistic econ
omy-already has travelled far
down the road to that goal.
Not only is our economy honey
combed with government regula-
tions and red tape but also the
government owns or controls
large sections of our enterprise
system.

er industry we have not been
running, we have been Sprinting,
