attitude continues to be wide spread in spite of the dramatic instances of close votes in recent years. For instance, the 1852 pres idential vote in Kentucky was: 495,729 for Stevenson; 495,029 for Eisenhower. Just TOO votes decid- ed Kentucky's choice for Presi- dent of the United States.
 The 1852 presidential vote in Tennessee was 446, ,147 for Eisen- hover; 443,710 for Stevenson. Just 2,437 votes decided the issue. All over America there were incl dents in 1852 and again in the congressional elections of 1854 demonstrating the power of a single citizens vote. Some of the congressional races were decided by margins of a few hundred votes or less.
 One Votes Power ,
 Back in the 1840s in DeKalb County, Ind, there lived a grain miller. He started to his mill on election. day to grind his grain. On the way he met some friends who persuaded him to go to the polls instead. The records show that the candidate to the state legislature won by one vote-and the miller had voted for him. That legislator cast the deciding vote that sent Edward Allen Hannegan to the US. Senate. The question of statehood for Texas came up for vote while Hannegan was acting as president pro tenn. The vote was tied. Hannegan cast the deciding ballot in favor of admit ting Texas to the Union.
 You couldn't convince that h. diana miller that his vote was in- significant; nor could you con- vince the people of Texas that it was.

Stevenson Contends
 Eisenhower Has Withheld Truth of Foreign Affairs
By the Associated Press

Adlai Stevenson contended yes terday that President Eisenhower has endangered the peace by withholding "tbe whole truth" about tragic developments abroad.
 Stevenson cited the new crisis in the Middle East as an example. He pursued this theme as he carried forward his final weeks drive for votes with scheduled speeches in Maryand, New Jersey and Pennsylvania after roaring reception Monday night in Bos- tons Mechanics Hall
 There, taking note of news that IsraePs military forces had struck across the Egyptian frontier toward the Suez Canal, the Dem ocratic standard bearer said it was hard to speak about today's ominous and confusing develop ments in the Middle East"
 But I must say this-and it is only to repeat what I have been saying turnout this campaign" :" he said. "The government in Washington has been telling us that all is well in the world, that there is peace, that there is-as the President announced only few days ago-'good news from the Middle East.

A CITIZENS GREAT POWER

A candidate for governor in a southern state recently won the nomination of his party-and vir- tually certain election-with vote total that was considerably less than half of the total of legal voters in the state. And the num- Der of legal voters was less than half of the total of elibible voters. So the governor will serve as the choice of a comparatively small percentage of the states citizenry.
 If his political principles and acts do not please the non-voting 75 percent of the citizenry, they will not be entitled to complain.
 This situation is typical of the apathy of big percentage of the American citizenry. In the nation as whole and counting all politi- cal elections-local, state and na- tional-an average of only about 20 percent of the voters vote reg ularly.
 Four Out Of Ten
 The presidential election of 1852 set an all-time record when not quite 60 percent of the adult pop ulation voted. However, in the average city block of ten homes this would mean that four, homes, or four families, didn't appreciate their freedom and their prosper ity sufficiently to study the can didates and the issues and then vote. Lack of voting means just tha.-for our freedom and our economic progress in America depend on the kind of govern ment we have. :.
 What causes the apathy of our American citizens toward politics and voting? There are many caus- es. The most prevalent basic cause is a lack of understanding of the principles of the Amercan system. Another cause is the fail ure of so many citizens to assess the value of individual freedom. They have never lived under the regimentation of a socialist gov ernment or in dictatorship or police state.
 Vote Doesn't Count
 Millions of citizens do not vote because they feel that their indi- vidual vote would be insignifi- cast in the total, would not change the outcome-so why bother! This

Hi Will you please an
swer a question for me?
Where has the summer gone?
THE TIME to buy books, get
lockers, and pay fees is with
us once again as each class
eagerly awaits the coming
school year and the prospect
of being one grade higher.
The freshman looks forward
to the time he will at last be
in high school; the sophomore
is glad to leave his lowly posi-
ition and move up to new
heights; the new Junior, saw
oring the idea of being an up
per-classman, feels SatiSfac-
ton as he looks to the coming
school year.
And then there is the SEN
ior! The high-roller the
top of the ladder the
student who realizes his goal
is almost reached and must
make the very most of the last
high school year before many
new responsibilities find him.
THIS YEAR will be one of
the finest seen by the Tucson
high schools in many years.
Since THIS, Catalina, and
Pueblo are now apart, spirit
and competition will run high,
making this a year to remem-
Der.

Texas Judge Clamps
Lid On NAACP

An appeal was drafted early
this week in Tyler, Texas, to a
state court order that clamps
the lid on all National ASsocia-
ton for advancement of Colored
People operations in Texas.
Seventh District Judge Otis T.
Dunagan granted the states re-
quest that temporary restrain
ing order against the NAACP
be made a temporary INDUCTION.
The NAACP Immediately gave
notice of appeal.
Judge Dunagan said his for
NAL order would be issued in a
day or two, giving his grounds
for granting the INDUCTION.
NAACP attorneys had no fur
ther comment on the decision
that climaxed a long tedious
hearing that had come into it's
fifth week after, II days Of testi-
mony and arguments.
I'm happy, just as in any
other trial we have won," said
state Atty. Gen. John Ben Shep-
perd.
Shepperd had accused the
NAACP Of II violations of state
laws, principally solicitation of
law suits, profit making, and
political activities.
The NAACP. which is charter
ed as charitable, nonprofit or
ganization, denied all charges
and said much of Shepherds
evidence was obtained illegally.
A ring of state highway pa
trolmen and Texas Rangers
watched the jatnmed courtroom
as Judge Dunagan handed down
his decision. There was no dis
turbance or demonstration from
the crowd, most Of them Ne
