coming election at the weekly
luncheon meeting of the Wash

Wednesday.
/ The poll in 1852 predicted an
Eisenhower landslide as well as
the capture of the States Of Vir-
ginia. Tennessee. Texas and
Florida. 1t also predicted the
close control of the Congress by
the Republicans.
Again in 1854 the poll was cor
rect, predicting a comfortable
margin in the House for the
Democrats and toss-up in the
Senate, which was decided by
one seat.

grained male prejudices woulc
make a feminine bid for the
presidency largely a waste Of
time.
While no woman has ever beer
nominated for the presidency OF
the vice presidency by any major
party, there have been women
Governors. The first was Nellie
Tayloe Ross elected in Wyoming
in 1924.
Support for GOvernOrships
And a much larger percentage
of young people in our survey
protested no objection to women
Governors. Thirty-three per
cent of the boys and SIS per cent
of the girls thought women might
make good chef executives of
their States.
A Missouri girl said: Women
are especially good at the per-
sonal approach. I think that
heading, a State would require
lots of this talent. Nothing is as
important as getting on friendly
terms with the inhabitants. And
in this a woman could really
excel"
While youths are somewhat
bearish on the talents of women
for high public Office. they're
apparently prepared to allow
them greater latitude in the bust
ness world.
Some rs per cent of the teen
ayers, of both sexes, said the
fact that a woman ran a COM
pany that employed them would
not cause them to lose enthuSi-
aSm for their job.

OF course. women have been

With this in mind, apparent

girls we queried expressed them
selves in favor of a woman Presi-

was of the caliber of Mrs.
Eleanor Roosevelt, Sen ator
Smith or Clare Boothe Luce, the
United States Ambassador to
Italy.
In fact, many of the girls feel
the country might be better off

Many more youngsters say wom-

Or to the Supreme Court of the
United States. Fifty-seven per
cent of the boys and 70 per cent
OF the girls believe women could
serve capably on the high tri-
bunal.
These reactions turned up in
our Nationwide survey on the
youngsters views of woman's
place in the higher spheres of
public life and business.
The question of a woman Pres
ident is often batted around in
election years. Former Presi-
dent Truman has said that a
woman may well occupy the
White House some day. And
President Eisenhower has said
that women are competent for
the office-though too smart to
seek it.
92Te of Boys Disagree
But 80 per cent Of the boys
we queried disagree sharply.
They're convinced the presidency
is a job well beyond woman's
capacities.

youngster expressed it." are too

it should and $50 said it should
not.
We also asked if we should
change our legislative procedures.
1910 said yes and $50 said no.

ton is being discussed was evident
from the answers to what type

people thought the legislature that

idea, and they also thought we
might hold annual sessions on that
basis or make full time legislators
meeting in that manner.

And in conclusion let's mot "trip
over the trap lying under the phrase
getting government out of politics.
Democracy is politics and whenever
we take politics out of government
we no longer have democracy. Poll

ton and feel that should she be elected she
might find in the exercise of her duties she
was embarrassed considerably by the sources
OF support which would have brought about
her election
1T must not be forgotten that the utter
degeneracy into which the campaign for Miss
Condon's scalp is developing is not by acct
dent. Her opponents know what they want
and Miss Condor having refused to surrender
to their Vaccinations, will until Nov 6, at
least, be target for every dead cat they can
lay hand upon.
The post being contested for by Condor
ana Miller IS an educational post and the
voters should select the administrator for the
position because of her background as an
educator, her experience in the field of edu-
cation, her training in education, her ability
and her freedom from influence.
The color of the hair, whether one is per
sonna grata TO a university president or an
OIL corporation lawyer, and the other not. are
beside the question.
When voters mark their choice in this race

upon thought upon the position and oualifica-
lions of the two aspirants not upon stray

at must have startled many Mon

Demo National Committeeman Leo

ing appearance at a Townsend rally
last week.
''Mr. Rankin evinces concern about
Arnold Olsen's inexperience in gov

Arnold Olsen has been an active mem

years, and the legal adviser for all
state departments. He has a wealth
of information about our state and
its institutions.
"The action taken by the Land
Board four years ago to collect the
states crop share on land Rankin
was leasing is an example of OIL

ed out.

thoughts Upon the Selection Of State Superintendent

office of Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton. Naturally having friend in such spots,
rather than an official unwilling to bend to
his will without question, is attractive to DR..
Mcfarland Whether it is good for MSU
that his candidate receive aid and comfort
through MSU, is a different matter.
The wisdom of planting a protege of
university president upon the important
state boards ought to be pondered by the
presidents, faculty and alumni of all of
the other Montana institutions of higher
education, as well as the public at large.
But what Montana citizens should seek in
their state superintendent of schools
qualifications and ability to accomplish good
job, plus an independence from any control,
from whatsoever source, that is undisputed.
Such qualifications, such independence and
freedom from control are demonstrated at
tributes of Miss Condor. With degrees in
education, experience as high school teacher,
knowledge of school administration through
work as a college professor and dean of stu
dents, in addition to background a war
time Red Gross worker in India, combine with
her experience as Montana State Superintend-
emit of Public instruction since 1949, to make
her a most capable public officer. So capable
