Mccarthy is reported seek

good politics to give his OPP
ponents on the floor the satis-
faction Of saying they were

10 or 20 per cent. Such a sue

In any event. heated ar

President Eisenhower PROM

ConServationists must pin

Conservationists likewise are
disturbed by the Presidents
vague expression in his mes
sage of hope that pending
legislation to improve the
conservation and management
of publicly-owned grazing
lands in national forests will
soon be approved by Con-
gress." For there are bills
pending which aroused bitter
protests at public hearings last
session by conservationist
forces because they would
permit vested rights in grazing
lands in our national forests
and permit exploitation of
such lands in a way that
would cause untold damage
to both our forest resources
and our water resources

Conservationists thought the

urgent reasons for travel takes
the citizen away from his home
on election day.
But, Notwithstanding all this.
the proportion of citizens who
vote as related to the total
number of citizens over 81 now
eligible to vote. has been stead
lily going down in the last so
years. One reason advanced is
that women do not vote in as
big numbers as men and that
this brings the total percentage
down. Whatever the reason,
the fact is that a little more
than half of those eligible to
vote do SO in presidential elec-.
tions, and as for congression-
al and local elections. the per-
centages are even smaller.
Reasons for not voting have
never been accurately meas
ured. though some research has
been done along that line. It
would seem logical that many
persons who do not vote frank
ly do not know what the shout
ing is all about and have never
related public questions direct
ly to their own lives. Others
are well aware Of the meaning
of the issues but see little
choice between present-day
parties or candidates and
hence DO not bother to vote
they don't think it makes much
difference anyhow,
BY adding several more mil
lion eligible voters in the teen
age brackets. the percentage Of
those who go to the polls prob
ably would go down still fur
ther. But in answer to this it
might be argued that a sub
stantial amount of intelligence
would nevertheless be added to
the total Judgment of the elec-
torate-and that is always
worth while.

hard for Republicans to vote

He is thoroughly experienced

The same source, however,

thought. be easy to exaggerate

coalesced behind Goodwin

sistent with the needs Of the
whole Nation"
How easily such loose lam
guage can be twisted-and has
been-to reverse long-estab-
lished programs and policies
can be seen in any number
of cases. There is. for instance.
the Interior D epart m mt s
abandonment of support for
projected public development
Of Hell's Canyon in the Snake
River along the Idaho Oregon
boundary, and the preference
thus indicated for piece-meal
development by the local"
Idaho Power Company which
is owned largely by eastern in
terests. For another. there is
the temporary arrangement
still awaiting final decision
which deprives rural electric
co-operatives in Georgia and
South Carolina of preferences
in the sale of power from the
Clark's Hill project which is
guaranteed by law. There is,
for another case, the discrimi-
nation against REA cooper
atives in the Missouri Basin
and in favor of private utili-
ties.
This last caused an uproar
which finally exploded in pub
lie hearings here staged by
Senator LANCER, Republican,
of North Dakota. That resulted
in some notifications of the
protested marketing criteria"
and demands by 20 Senators
that the whole scheme be de-
layed from going into effect
until the rural electric cooper
atives can be protected in their
investment.
Friends Of public power have
been aroused by successive
threats all over the map and
have forced investigations in
both House and Senate. These
are expected to explore the
whole course of power policy

In President Eisenhower's
"something-for-e veryb b o d y"
message to Congress, there's
one proposal which certainly.
on second thought. will not
look as good to some people
as it Gid at first. That's the
recommendation for a COnsti-
tutional amendment which will
permit 18-year -olds to vote.
Few people who read it prob
ably realized that it meant the
vote for 18-year-old girls as
we'll as boys. Also If the con-
trolling argument is that a boy
Is years old is not too young
to fight for his country he
ought to be considered old
enough to vote, the reverse is
also true-an 18-year-old girl
would likewise be eligible for
military service.
Women have never been
drafted for war, but many of
them have volunteered in the
last two wars. It is obvious
that many millions Of young
men could be used in the front
lines and in the heavier duties
of supply units If girls could
be used for the clerical and
desk jobs, and even for the
domestic service In the kitch-
ems for which able-bodied
men now are utilized.
But the whole subject Of vot-
ing age has not been thought
through by those who for polit-
ical or sentimental reasons
want to lower the voting age
to 18. What exactly should be
the criterion for voting in a
democracy? Is calendar age the
only real basis for measure
ment? Or is it mental age?
Thus If girls are to vote. 1t
may well be argued that the
voting age should be reduced to
Is because many experts say
Evening star., 1954-01-11

the girl Of 16 is as matured If
not more so than the boy Of 10.
Judging from the letters on
public affairs received by this
correspondent. there are many
girls and boys aged Is and even
lower who seem to know more
about what's happening to
their country and the problems
of the day than those who are
far above the present voting
age. Former President Truman
gave hint on the latter point
when he said that instead of
reducing the voting age to 18.
1t might better be considered
whether the voting age should
be advanced to "a. Many politi-
clans will disagree with him,
but anybody who has studied
the interest in campaigns
taken by persons below 80 will
discover that 1t doesn't begin
to compare with the interest
manifested by those above 80.
Not that there aren't many in
the lower age groups who don't
take an interest in public
affairs and reading above the
issues. But the proportion is
much smaller as the age
bracket moves down.
While on the subject of
amending the Constitution to
Ak the proper voting age. it
might be worth while to con-
slider adding a section on COM
pulsory voting. Other countries
such as Australia have adopted
that practice. It might be
stipulated that any. one who
other than because of illness
or disability didn't vote might
lose his vote for three success
sive elections.
Provisions have been made
nowadays for absentee voting
so that this Is no longer an ex-
cuse when business or other

The difficult feat of making

of circumstances makes it
possible for Democrats to ap-

non-partisanship in local gov

The Warren Democrat is
