sponsor make-work projects
and other programs for the
expenditure Of the taxpayers
money.
The Harvard professors,
their candidate and his plat
form are prepared. to tax and
spend the peoples money for
what are called new from
tiers" The people will wake
up to the fact that these
new frontiers" are nothing
more than the programs
fashioned by Harry Hopkins,
in order to tax and tax,
spend and spend, elect and
elect" Professor Schlesinger
and Professor Galbraith are
eager to put on the Hopkins
mantle.

When listening to the Nix
on-Kennedy TV debates, one
is struck by the timely COM
ment about two renowned
speakers Of classical times:
when Cicero had finished
speaking. the people said,
How well he spoke;
when Demosthenes had fin
ished speaking, the people
said,
Let us march against Philip"
One gets the feeling that
America is about to wake up
from Its trance and march
again under the leadership of
Senator Kennedy Of Massa-
chusettS.

I am q woman and I am
going to vote for Richard
NiXonl s*
I resent the inference that
I and other women are so i'll
advised. so uninformed, so in
capable Of serious thought.
that we are going to vote for
Jack Kennedy because he is
good looking" We women do
understand the issues. we do
know the two candidates
positions. we do; read and
study their statements and
the statements made about
them. I believe that Mr..
Nixon can help us to main
tain our sense of balance in
an unbalanced world. I be-
lieve that he will maintain
dignity in the White House.
I believe that he will sponsor
and approve those programs
designed to benefit the Ameri-
can people at home and
abroad, without jeopardizing
the American way of life to
accomplish it.
I hope that those women
who do vote for Jack Ken
nedy will have the sincere be-
lief in him that I have in
Richard Nixon - and that
they will support him because
they honestly believe he could
lead this country - not be-
cause "he is good looking"
But, better still, I would hope
that their analysis and mine
would agree to the point
where they would feel, honest
ly, as I do, that Richard Nix
on should be our next PreSi-
dent.

The Nixon-Kennedy de-
bates have been good in
principle. Peoples interest
tagged somewhat because
the debaters did not really
disagree in any substantial
sense.
For a real debate, how
about scheduling such a Sc
rieS between the winner of
this one and. the Prime Min
lister Of the Soviet Union?
Wouldn't it provide listeners
on both sides of the Iron
Curtain a good opportunity
to judge the policies of their
leaders? Might it not help
bring about an international
agreement, If not between
leaders at least between peo-
Piles Of the contending ma
tions?
If the new President is
willing to subject his poll
cies to searching public
analysis, face-to-face with
an opponent who actually
disagrees with them, why
should he not challenge
Khrushchev to a series of
public television debates to
be heard by both Russians
and Americans?
