in this fashion But 1t can hardly be said that
the plan imposes a moral obligation on the
voter.
The plan does make it possible to bar from
the primary voter who refused to support
the party nominees at the last preceding elec-
ton or who, if challenged, will not say that he
intends to support them at the next election.
But this right of challenge is rarely exercised for
the simple reason that conservative Democrats,
faced with liberal Democratic opposition in
primaries, accept and welcome the support of
Republican voters who enter the Democratic
primary.
AS long as Virginia Democrats choose to
play the game this way it is idle to talk about
a moral obligation on the voters part to support
the party's nominees. The moral obligation
which really rests on the voter is to vote for
the candidate he believes to be best qualified
for Office. That is what the voters who, for in
stance, supported Senator Byrd in his primary
last year,and Republican Ted Dalton last week
were doing. The Democrats, under the party
plan, can put stop to this if they want to do
so. But they won't.

I have seen the letters in The Star
recently on the subject of "slow
drivers" Most motorists seem to re-
gard these as a great menace to the
safety on the highways. However, l
have a suspicion that by "slow
driver" they are actually referring to
some one who drives at the posted
speed limit There are few such
suckers. admittedly not very many, and
am one of them.

day on Lee Highway in Arlington,
where the speed limit is 80, and when
ever it is possible drive at that speed.
Nevertheless, other cars are constantly
passing me. going much faster than !
am. Undoubted these speeding
motorists consider me a dangerous
"slow driver" even when am doing
80 on the dot. have been told that to
drive miles over the speed limit is
generally accepted practice.
AS for me, am naive enough to be-
lieve that we all would be safer on the
roads if the speed limits were obeyed,
and most of this passing were elimi-

Exploiting Armistice Day

Armistice Day found me precariously
suspended twiXt the twin horns of a
dilemma: Should I Shudder with shame
or puff with pride?
On the one hand I saw young Amer
lea in action: Junior high students at
their studies-discipline but not reg
imented; Dusty, but not bored. And
in the afternoon I sang America"
and pledged allegiance to the flag, and
soberly tramped through Flanders Field
in company with Starry-eyed little
grade-school children. This day was
part of our future; I lived briefly,
with our leaders of tomorrow.
But on the other hand I saw adult
America washington at least) not only
pursuing business as usual, but ex-
plotting Armistice Day to the hilt:
Armistice Day sales swelled the papers;
everything from automobiles to xylo-
phones was placed on the altar of
profit!
How long can this hypocrisy go on?
How long can adult America prate
about spiritual values" and yet pro-
mote 'materialism" without batting an
eye?
