Acceptance of Many Racial Strains
Here Held Good Omen for Kennedy

the "pluralism" of urban
life. frequently is being named
to civic and political commit

of cities Negroes are being
nominated and elected to Of

Now and then this has led
to such obvious straining to
balance rival political tickets
as to become preposterous
and productive of a poor
quality of men in public Of
flee. But if public campaigns
of civic endeavor are to sue
ceed, and if political parties
are to provide attractive
tickets, then it is necessary
to see that the pluralism Of
their civic life is represented.
The frequent straining to
balance" political tickets
racially at times, appears
ridiculous. 1t is. however. an
inescapable fact,of our urban
life at its present stage Of
development that government
and community life function
better when the pluralistic
quality is employed.
1t offers a feeling Of rep
resentation to minority
groups. 1t is, of course. at
times abused. When there is
one large group which DOM
mates numerically, the temp
tation is always there to
abandon pluralistic represen-
tation. Hence, the balancing

President Eisenhower moves

remarkable how orderly the

It is true that the police

get enough policemen to pa

the right to demonstrate"
is sacred.
The easiest way to get
things back to normal is not
to remove the U.N. but to re-
move the causes of the hatred

swept this country against

One reason why a BOOM
erang effect is already in
evidence following the more
unreasonable aspects of the
attempt to exclude Senator
Kennedy from the Presidency
because of religion, lies in
the unique racial complexity
of the large cities of this
country.
American urban society has
been, almost from its begin
ming, pluralistic. That Is to
say, it has of necessity ac-
eommodated itself to the
presence Of different racial
strains-German Irish, and
Jewish. Later on, after the
vast waves Of immigration,
there began a slow process
of integration of Italians,
Poles and peoples from Cen
trail Europe.
The result is that in New
England and the industrial
North. the cities long have
been accustomed to operat-
ing in a pluralistic fashion.
On all the public drives, as
in politics, committees and
candidates are selected so
that each group in the city
Jewish, Roman Catholic
and Protestant-is repre-
sented.
The pluralistic fact Of life
for a long time has required
that labor be represented. In

Vote Recount
Backs Hogon
In Georgia

SAVANNAH. Ga, Sept. 81
(AP) Persistent politician G..
Elliott Hagan has won the
Democratic nomination for the
House seat held by Representa-
tive Prince Preston since 1916.
The A year old Sylvania
businessman and farmer sue
ceeded on his third attempt.
but he had to wait for a re-
count of votes in Chatham
County Savannah to be sure
of the outcome.
Nomination normally is tam
tamount to election in pre-
dominantly Democratic Geor-
gia. but Mr.. Hagan may have
to face Republican opposition
in the November general elec-
ton.
State Republican leaders say
they plan to place the name Of
James l.. Sundy, a Savannah
businessman. on the ballot If
they can get 5000 signatures
by Friday. The signatures are
the required 5 per cent Of the
registered voters in the district.
Mr.. Hagan won Chatham
County by 440 votes in last
Wednesdays Democratic pri-
mary. That gave him the
county's six unit votes and a
unit vote victory of 26-l8 in
the district.
Mr.. Preston promptly asked
for a recount in Chatham
County. If he had been sue
ceSsful he would have won by
a 24-20 unit vote margin. No
errors were found in the tabu-
Ilations.
Shortly after completion of
the recount, Mr.. Preston con-
ceded defeat and said he
planned to keep a close watch
on Mr.. Hagan's voting record
in Congress. Mr.. Hagan, who
served six terms in the State
Legislature, based his cam
paign against Mr.. Preston
largely on the labor issue. He
attacked Mr.. Preston for voting
for the Landrum Griffin labor
bill.

italian, and Protestants. 1t
isn't wholly admirable. 1t
denies the best man" policy.
But it works. And it does so
because politics remains "the
science of the possible" Until
we become more like angels
we shall have to go along
with pluralism when the
facts of population demand
it.
1t is precisely here that
the backf1re against those
who have sought to bar Sen
ator Kennedy on the basis of
his religion, despite his clear
cut Endorsement of every de-
tail of the Constitution of
the United States, is already
in evidence.
Certainly all min GRITTY
groups will feel an almost
compulsive impulse to sup
port the Senator. If one ele-
ment of the pluralistic life Of
our great urban areas is to
be so attacked, then all are
in danger. There will be an
emotional pulling together.
A good 65 per cent of the
Catholic population Of this
country lives in IL big cities.
If Senator Kennedy can take
New York and California,
the ball game will be over.
This fact, incidentally,
may be the pivot on which
Southern political leader
ship will turn to him. Above
all. it does not wish for him
to win without the South and
thus expose the false posi-
tion of it's leadership. If he
begins to gain. the South'S

Bonsa| Recall
BY JOHN v. HORNER
Star Stan Writer

Senator Smathers, Demo
crat Of Florida, demanded to-
day that the United States
withdraw Ambassador Philip
w. Bonsal from his post in
Cuba because of the continu.
ing campaign Of insults by the
Fidel Castro government.
He also called for stringent
controls against the shipment
to Cuba Of machinery, equip
ment and replacement parts.
The Senator urged revision
of the United States informa-
ton program for Cuba, with a
shift to emphasis on long wave
radio news programs.
The Florida legislator, q
student Of Latin American
affairs for many years, charged
that Prime Minister Castro's
real reason for attending the
United Nations General AS
sembly sessions is that he seeks
help from Soviet Premier Khru-
shchev because he is in serious
trouble at home.
THE Cuban people are STIR
ring restlesSly under a cruel
and bloody Red tyranny
Senator Smathers asserted.
THE goals of the Cuban rev.
olution have been subverted by
international Communists who
have made Cuba a springboard
for their theological war against
Latin America. Freedom low
ing Cubans resent that trea-
son."

Many Americans today may
be tempted to applaud the
proposal Of Pravda, the off,
cial Communist organ in Mos
COW, that the United Nations
be moved out of New York
City. For the truth is there
are citizens of this country
who feel that it would be a
good idea to let the U.N.
operate in Geneva or some
where else so that it will
be unnecessary hereafter to
receive into America such
personalities as KhruShchev,
Kadar and Castro.
There are Americans, too,
who feel that the presence
of the headquarters of the
U.N. in New York affords
Khrushchev and his Com
munist bloc facilities for
broadcasting and press cover
age that are not available to
the officials of Western gov
ernmentS when they visit the
countries behind the Iron
Curtain.
The United Nations, at its
beginning, could easily have
been set up in some European
capital, but there were many
Americans, including this
writer, who felt that the mo-
bilization Of the moral force
of the world could better be
