AsGOOD GROUP ON IT'S A
MORE AND MORE women are taking an active
and more meaningful role in the life Of the community,
and the entire group. This is a good sign, and one which
should be encouraged. Among the groups which recently
came into being is the Bushes and Professional Wo-
mems Club.
CLUBS AND ORGANIZATIONS Of this type are
more than just groups Of isolated individuals getting to-
gethers to pass away an hour or two in chit-chat. They
have a place. They can make great contributions. They
can inHuencAfOr good-the entire life Of any comnl-
nifty, and they can give a sense Of direction the like Of
which nothing else can.
BUSINESS AND professional women have much
in common. No doubt they have worked together, have
studied together, see the same problems through the
same eyes, and have very concrete ideas as to what can
be done, and how, to help solve community problems.
AS TIME PASSES the local club will no doubt
want to affiliate with the national group, which is 4
strong and most influential one cutting across the length
and breath Of the United States. Many highly educated
and influential women in all walks Of life, including col
lege presidents, WOm6n III Lie pAOASOoAOHO, dAd lily AlnS,
claim membership ii these groups. When that time
comes another step forward will have been accom-
plshed.
BUT THE FORMATION Of this club say sone-

argy. Put in c~olloquial terms-we are coming out Of our

invited Sen. Barry Goldwater (R.,
Ariz.) to address a local luncheon
and, according to local reports, he
made quite hit. In fact the Jack
son Clarion-Ledger described Gold
water as being as keen an orator
ical marksman as Mississippi has
heard in many moons" He also
spoke at a Mississippi Republican
breakfast and held a press confer
ence.
Before the latter group Gold
water said he regarded Earl War
rem as unfit to be Chief Justice
because 'rhe hasn't practiced law in
Is years, has never been a judge
and is a socialist" According to
the wire service reports, Goldwat-
er also was fulsome in his praise
Of the Vice President
Nixon was lucky in one respect.
The Goldwater speech did not get
much editorial attention.
The accounts by United Press In
ternational and the Associated
Press differed in detail but agreed
on many of the essentials. The
UPI story gave national emphas-
is to Goldwater's remarks. The
APP story led off with the remarks
about Warren. Neither story got
much play in the northern press
breaking as they did for Saturday
papers.
What must have been embarras-
sing to Nixon were the following
points repeatedly made by Gold
water:
1. He believes most Republican
leaders want to withhold enforce
ment of school migration II think
the general feeling in the Repub-
lican Party now is let the southern
states go along as they are" he
was reported to have said.
2. 1t was Goldwater's opinion
that most Republicans across the
country believe the sending of
troops to Little Rock was a
mistake"
And this was his final point, as
told by UPI:
"Goldwater also told newsmen
that he did not believe Vice Presi-
dent Nixon would be as dedicated
to support the Supreme Court II
he became President as would a
Democrat"
Goldwater has not repudiated
the quotations attributed to him.
And Nixon has not repudiated
Goldwater.
