Court Vetoes

AUSTIN, Tex. Sept. Is (P).-
The State Supreme Court yester-
day ruled that former United
States Senator w. Lee ODaniel
can not run for governor as an
independent or as a Constitu-
ton Party nominee in November
Mr.. O'Daniel ran third in the
Democratic primary July 20.
The court denied a motion OF
the Constitution Party which
asked authority to file suit to
force Secretary of State Tom
Reavley to certify Mr.. ODaniel
as its gubernatorial nominee,
The court said Mr.. O'Daniel had
assumed "the high moral obli-
cation to support the nominee of
the Democratic Party for gov
ernor in 1856"
Later Mr.. O'Daniel announced
plans for campaign to have
voters write-in his name for gov
ernor on the general election
ballot.

Britain and France have
taken the initial step in call
ing the United Nations Secu-
rity Council into the Suez dis
pute. The two nations, in a
formal note to the president
of the Council, charged that
the Nasser naturalization of
the Suez Canal Co. was a pos
sible threat to peace and Sc
curity IF the situation is
allowed to continue"
In dispatching this commu-
nication to the Security Coun-
Gil, Britain and France have
laid the groundwork for a sub
sequent appeal for United Ma
tons action in the event that
Egypt continues to reject any
proposals for international
control of the vital waterway.
If Col. Nasser proves adamant
in his claims to exclusive
Egyptian sovereignty over the
canal, subject to Egypt's own
unilateral Interpretation of the
Convention of 1883 guarantee
ing the international right to
use the canal, then the next
step would be in order.

that the U.N. could accomplish
anything of value in the Suez
dispute. Time and time again

without using any names. the
committee put into the record
letters OF complaint that the new
color scheme was IAN unneces-

service. One complainant said
the new colors were identical
with that used by a pie maker
ana a diaper service in his COM
munity.
Committee Chairman John
ston, Democrat of South Caro-
INA, said there were more seri-
GUS reports that the Post Office
department favored well
known paint manufacturer and
unduly restricted competition
IN the purchase Of the red. white
and blue paints, and that the
cost Of painting the mailboxes
jumped from about 70 cents to
about 81 apiece.
Mr.. Kieb conceded that not
everybody likes red, white and
blue, but he had answers to most
OF the complaints and denied
firmly any special influence OF

With the old "camouflage
color" he said. there were three
times as many traffic accidents
involving mail trucks. And some
people mistakenly dropped their
letters in drab-hued street trash

The chief, If not the only,
advantage any nation in
volved in controversy can gain

is to secure a basis for favor
able world opinion. Russia has
been using the U. N. since it's
inception almost exclusively
for a special forum, in which
the Communist spokesman can
be sure of an audience for
their attacks on the free world.
In the General Assembly it
self, the Communist bloc, with
the % nations of the Asian
African bloc. have adequate
votes to defeat any U. N. ac-
ton looked upon with disfavor
by Egypt. They might even be
able to prevent a complaint
against Egypt from being con-
sidered at all, by voting to re-
fuse to place the matter on the
agenda. This latter is unlikely,
particularly since the votes
to defeat the West are at hand.
But If there were any doubt as
to the possible outcome of a
Big Three appeal, heading it
of would be a very probable
tactic.
Col. Nasser, it is clear now,
is not going to back down on
the Suez question. He is too
far committed to take the in
evitable blow to his prestige
as a dictator If he were even
reasonable enough to meet the
Vests demands halfway.
Very probably he wishes that
there were some face-saving
way Of coming to terms with
the West, particularly since he
stands to lose a large part, If
not all. of the canal revenues

is no foolishness about Secre-
tary Dulles intention to press

Is there any law in Mont

Even if they were seen at
Poolesville, is that an offense
for which they should be fired

Apparently. from news &C
counts, they did not partici-

even If they did, have we
reached a point in this country
where a person cannot even
protest against something
which he regards as wrong?
You hear much talk, eSpe-
cially from certain elements
and politicians, about civil
rights" In practice, doesn't
that extend down to low-paid
employees of the roads depart

I hope your music column

that there will never be a dull

The article in your Septem-

concerned George Bernard
Shaw in his role as a music
critic, and revealed his nom de
plume as Como di BaSsetto,
meaning a basset horn. AS an
added sidelight, let us men
ton that some pipe organs
have a stop by that name. Per-
sonally, we don't think it
sounds too badly either in tone
or name.
How many of us knew that
GBS did music. reviews? And
how many Of our good parish
toner's have ever stopped to
meet the church organiSt and
also get acquainted with the
stop list on their own parish
organ? In all kindness. I sug-
gest that if that were more
often the case, how much more
willing would the congrega-
tons be to invest in good care
and upkeep for beautiful in
struments which contribute so
vital a function in the serv-
ices of the sanctuary.
