The 1862 presidential campaign. with
about month and few days to go, is
low in full swing. The mud singing, wills.
pering campaigns and sudden explosive
character splashing are now taking the
ar With the heavy fog now beclouding
both party bandwagons, how can the vot-
er make sane, intelligent choice when
ne goes to the polls in November?
Why were both parties so reluctant in
the handling of the Civil Rights issue :?
The convention agenda and the stand as
indicated in both party platforms were
weak, ineffective and cautiously compro-
missing, nspite of the acute world situa-
ton and attacks made upon American de-
mocracy from all parts of the world be-
cause of Americas color problem. Even
though millions of American dollars are
trying to buy friendship throughout the
world many very embarrassing questions
are facing American representatives at
every turn because of Americas treat
ment of minority groups.
Was there a behind the scene sell out
Of powers in both political parties to soft
peddle the Civil Rights issue to appease
the South, which is just beginning to
have its first political awakening since
the war between the States? Or did the
leaders of both parties watch each other
with the ultimate intent if they don't
we won't either idea? What ever the
honest answer might be, both parties
came up with a spineless and impotent
position on Civil Rights
Consequently, the elephant has as much
to offer as the donkey. Both have their
distinct faults and good points. Mr.. Vot-
er has only to select the animal of his
choice for both, so far, have created the
same type of fury characteristic of their
respective political Kingdoms.
This political muddle has in like man
ner created tremendous conflicts among
both Negro and white leadership. Strange
bedfeliows are turning up everywhere.
Party lines are being crossed in the North
and South, East and West. Republicans
well on their way with the built-up pop
ularity of Eisenhower, woke up to find
both Herman Talmadge and James
Byrnes in the same bed. Before the party
could get over having such strange bed
fellows and under the same roof, the lie
was OF the Nixon stew. This latest de

ready been stirred to the surface for all

1t would be foolish and tragic for any
citizen to refuse to vote this year or any
year. Voting is fundamental right Amer
lea has been fighting for. The right of
every citizen to express himself in govern
mental activities and about his govern
ment is an important right privilege and
responsibility The vote this year msst be
and should be the largest in American
history. militant effort should be made
to get all citizens, regardless of race or
creed, to vote this year. If Americans wish
better government, this is the time to ex-
press their demands by showing both po-
litical parties inspite of embarrassing
mistakes, they will not surrender their
privileges and obligations to their gov
eminent to professional politicians.
There are many lessons to be learned
from our present political situation. First
if Americans want good government they
must pay for it. They must pay financial
ly, spiritually and with the best talents
and human resources available. Govern
ment politics must be cleaned up so that
the services of the most respected and
able citizens can be obtained Service to
the government must pay a wage which
will attNact the best minds and most eff

must convince ourselves that graft and
malfeasance are not diseases of any one
party but the direct results of our poiti-
cal system which grew out of American
indifference to their obligation to parti-
cipate in governmental functions. We can
not expect any special consideration from
any political party during an election
year. But through militant governmental
participation political, financial and So
cial demands can be realized. The action
of Americans at the plols in November
will determine whether our 1852 election
will be "a sell out to professional politicians
