South Caroline
Senator Moybonk's Sudden Death Precipitotes
Rare Political Bottle at General Election
By [. Edgar Primo

An unexpected and bitter senate
rial campaign-the first to be fought
out at the general election-was
shaping up in South Carolina this
week between two poles-apart
Democratic leaders. s.
The men vying for the mantle of
the late Senator Burnet r. May
bank, who died last month after
having won nomination for a third
term, are:
State Senator Edgar A. (Kingfish)
Brown, Sc, a party regular" and
head of the so-called "Barnwel
ring" which has dominated State
politics for nearly a quarter century.
Former Gov. j. Strom Thurmond.
81, who bolted the national Demo-
cratic Party in 1948 to become
presidential standard bearer for the
States Rights Party, sometimes
called the Dixiecrats.
Normally, general election time
means little in South Carolina where
Republicans are hard to find. But
times aren't normal in the Palmetto
State and there is high excitement
over the coming campaign.
Sudden Tizzy
Originally. no contest was antici-
pated. Senator Maybank had been
unopposed for the nomination. His
reelection was assured. But he
succumbed to heart attack while
on vacation and this unexpected
turn OF events threw the Democratic
leaders into a tizzy.
The State Democratic Executive
Committee soon regained its aplomb.
however, and knew exactly what it
was going to do. Controlled by Mr..
Browns followers, the committee
met to consider the situation. After
turning down by a 31-18 vote pro-
posal by Gov. James F.. Byrnes that
a primary be held to select the
nominee, it unanimously decided to
hand the nomination to MIR. Brown.
Obviously, neither the committee
nor MIR. Brown, who accepted the
nomination" with q promise that
the people would never be ashamed
of anything he might do in the
United States Senate. foresaw the
groundswell Of protests that were to
follow.
A general feeling Of indignation
crossed the State over what one
newspaper called the "disenfran-
chising OF the voters" Courtenay
Carson. city editor Of the Columbia
Record, told The Star that letters Of
protest over the Brown affair were
the heaviest on any issue In his
memory.
South Carolina newspapers have
taken an almost unanimous stand in
condemning the committee action.
although Mr.. Brown Is not always
pictured as the william in the piece.
At the capital, the influential
Columbia State headlined the story
this way: COMMITTEES Hands Brown

shrugged off. From the beginning
DR.. Adenauer's chief political oppo-
sition-the German Socialist Party
has done business on platform OF
accepting German neutrality" as
the price of reunification. The latest
Russian move can hardly help but
provide ammunition to the neutral
iSt cause at a critical time. And
unless the gentlemen In the Krem-
lin are asleep at the switch new
Russian notes can be expected in
the near future.
The EDO Collapse
Each of these things, in its own
way. means trouble for Konrad
Adenauer and the policy of Western
cooperation that he has cham
pioned for SO long. And yet none of
them, taken separately or together,
would have cost the hard-bitten old
chancellor much sleep If it hadn't
been for the rejection Of edo by
the French Parliament. In compare,

whether 1t was foolish or admirable,
blind stubborness or lofty vision
the fact is that DR.. Adenauer has

ton that the European Defense
Community was the key to the Fed
eral Republics destiny. Now this
whole structure-which enjoyed the
support Of majority of Germans
and gave purpose and direction to
German policy-has been rudely and
suddenly shattered.
DR.. Adenauer cannot escape the
political consequences of the disas-
ter. just how bad it will be depends.
Of course. on what new solution
Western statesmen can come up
with. The German attitude on this
point Is simple enough: Whatever
the formula is, it had better be good.
DR.. Adenauer has moved quickly
and some think rashly-to iden-
tify himself with this new German
feeling. He has made 1t clear that

man Chancellor Konrad Adenauer.
who has long since exploded the
myth Of peaceful old age. Is facing
today, at IS, the greatest crisis Of
his political career.
It has come upon him suddenly.
Last July, when the German Parlia-
ment knocked of for its summer va
cations, everything seemed to be
going smoothly enough. The Fed
eral Government and its tireless boss
were In great shape-still riding high
on the wave Of popularity heaved up
by the national elections last Sep
tember. Then, DR.. Adenauer's Chris
tian Democrats pulled down nearly
half of the 27.5 million votes cast
and singlehandedly won an absolute
majority in the Bundestag Clover
house, Of the German Parliament.
Together with his coalition parties.
DR.. Adenauer controlled 307 Of the
487 seats and had an iron grip on
the destiny Of the Federal Republic.
Bundestog Due Back
Outwardly that grip may still be
as strong as ever. But while the
deputies were away relaxing num-
ber of things happened which have
seriously disturbed the serenity Of
the picture. It cannot be long after
the Bundestag reconvenes on Tues
day that the storm breaks in full
force around the chancellor's head !.
What happened would have been
bad news for the strongest Of gov
ernments. The list Of unsettling
events, going from bad to worse. in
cluded:
Q Industrial strikes in Hamburg
and Munich.
0 OBJECTIONS Of high-ranking Of
ficials to Russian-controlled East
Germany.
o New invitations from the Rus
slams to sit down and talk over the
problem Of German reunification.
. Rejection of the European De-
fense Community by France.
Taken together they add up to
real threat to DR.. Adenauer and the
new Germany which he has guided
through the turbulent postwar years.
The Strikes
The industrial fracas which broke
out in a number of localities early
last month, should not, perhaps. be
exaggerated. Critics Of the gov
ernment will certainly read some
political significance into the walk
out of several thousand workers and
the disorder that followed. It is
true enough that German workers
haven't made a practice in the past
of going so far to back up their
demands. In the opinion of most
unbiased observers, however, these
strikes had solid (and probably
justified) economic cause.
The Defeetions
The fight of two prominent off,
cials was something else again.

Twenty-fi hundred years is a
respectable age and the heirs of

everyone's attention to it's re-
Spectability. They don't believe
in rushing this sort of thing. It
is something to be serious about,
but also leisurely.
So they take a month, usually
March which is the one in which
income taxes fall due and every
one needs something to take his
mind off the high cost of being
orderly governed. Any objec-
