lacks the personal majesty
which Eisenhower brought to
his office. No landslide has

trifle with the newly elected

Washington is awaiting
more reports from the States

Senator Kennedy did so badly
west Of the Mississippi. He
was saved by Minnesota, Mis-

California. No one is trying

Kennedy: Moderately Liberal

will be the keynote Of the
Kennedy administration. Per-
haps the most striking human
fact about the President
elect is his instinctual aware
ness that sensible government
is built on persuasion and
consent.
And already reason has
won triumphs of far more
than mere partisan signif-
icance. Our people are proved
Northumberland notably in
the old Democratic heartland,
the South. During the cam
paign 1t was said endlessly,
by violent Northern liberals"
Of a certain kind, that the
South was ever so anti
Catholic" and so would turn
upon Senator Kepnedy.
This correspondent sug-
gested at the time that what
ever "anti-Catholicism" really
existed would turn out to be
more prevalent in other
regions, notably the rural
Midwest. The returns have
so indicated.
Our people have shown
they respect reason; they
reject the glandular ap-
proach to politics. They coolly
weighed up two cool and able
men. In the end they pre-
ferred the one; but they did
not therefore think that the
other should be treated as an
enemy of the Republic.

Many Diverse Elements of Party

Illustration and Of bitter
dissent.
But the young man from
New England. in whom there
was that quality Of leader
ship and challenge which
appeals to the people Of this,
or any other country, never
faltered. He held his course.
And. at last, order began to
come out of chaos. The his
toric diversity of the Demo-
Gratis became, as it can, their
strength.
The party leadership went
to work as it had never been
able to do for Adlai Steven
son, whom it twice nominated
but could not elect. The
Democrats themselves, who
loved Mr.. Stevenson but who
could never arouse popular
unity on his behalf, joined
together for Jack Kennedy.
He made them see that the
great cause is their country
and its problems. The old
image Of the Nation does not
fit any more. And many a
Democrat who asked himself
why he should remain true
to his party saw that the
challenge and the dangers
are vast and must be met
with boldness and innovation.
1t will always be something
OF a mystery why Vice Presi-
dent Nixon. with his many
advantages. and his prestige
of office and experience, could
not win. His appearance in
the debates eroded away
some Of his strength. He was
un h apply committed to
defend an administration
which no longer had the con-
fidence Of a majority of the
people. He was compelled to
take positions about the pres
tige and economic prosperity
of the country which most of
those in his audiences knew
to be untrue.
Because Of these things he
never inspired. The fears and
uneasiness which are In the
minds Of many were un-
answered. Somehow the Vice

but that he should be held
accountable after two years
to q two-thirds vote Of both
houses of Congress.
Certainly there Is need to
study thoroughly the present
system. Thus. out Of the
nearly 81 million votes cast
this week. the narrowest Of
margins less than half Of
one per cent separates the
victor from the loser. A few
States are given large elec-
toral votes because of their
large population. but within
those States the big cities
have o power superior to
those Of the smaller COM
munities. The system Is OBJ
viously inequitable. It has
been suggested that the elec-
toral vote be apportioned on
the basis Of congressional dis
tricts and that o majority
within q State shall not be
given the right to cast the
entire electoral vote Of Q
State. as happens today.
Reforms are plainly needed,
and it is interesting to note
that Senator Mike Mansfield,
assistant Democratic leader
in the Senate-who is favored
to succeed Vice President
elect Lyndon johnson Of
Texas in the leadership post
lis in the forefront Of those
advocating q reform in the
national election process.
Senator Kennedy is an
attractive personality and
shows much promise. but the
fact is he has never been
selected as leader Of his own
party in either house Of Con-
gress. Under a parliamentary
system. Senator johnson and
House Speaker Sam Rayburn
would have been in line for
the Presidency. These men
have been elected repeatedly
to leadership.
The current period Of tran
sition should open the eyes OF
the country to the risks Of

to combine personal gener-

so to ask his rival, Senator
johnson, to take second place
on the ticket.
Now fully confirmed is
what some of us as observers

That moment in Los Angeles
was the moment at which
John F. Kennedy enabled
himself to win the Presidency
Of the United States. For

President elect Kennedy
can expect constructive CO.
operation from the Congress
Of his party in foreign policy
and defense. Democrats not
only share his views in these
matters but accept the prin-
ciple Of strong executive
leadership In both fields.
They anticipate that he
will want to be his own Sec
retary Of State and will take
special care to establish that
concept in the public mind.
1t will not surprise leading
politicians If his choice for
Secretary Of State should
surprise the general public.
The situation regarding the
Defense Department is diff
ferent. Senator Kennedy
served on the Foreign Rela-
tions Committee. but he was
not q member Of either the
Appropriations or Armed
Services Committees where
the stony details of that ex-
pensive arm of Government
were ironed out.
Fortunately he grew better
acquainted in the campaign
with Senator Jackson Of
Washington, whom he named
national chairman. Senator
