communism TdGler Cndn dQ-
nit that Senator Mccarthy
was right. And his methods
must have been pretty effec-
tive. for they drew Commu-
mist fire.
AS for Senator johnson, I
think he has quite some gall
in aspiring to the presidency,
with such an attitude toward
a fellow American who had
the CUTS and the heart to
fight communism. Perhaps it
is the natural resentment
held by so many toward the
person who possesses virtues
they desire but lack.
At any rate, Senator john
son can be assured Of my
ardent support of Senator
Mccarthy, and that my
children and their unborn
children will honor the man,
because in my home truth is
taught. He can also be as
sured that the name of
Joseph r. Mccarthy will live
in the hearts of informed
Americans long after his has
been forgotten.
For shame. Senator John
son!

lnaSmuch as Vice PreSi-
dent Nixon, a thoroughly
capable and highly respected
executive, has proved him
self a dedicated participant
IN this country's role in the
peace movement and is be-
ginning to initiate promising
new proposals on both a
national and a worldwide
sc lie, why, nevertheless.
should it be a foregone and
official conclusion that the
Nixon bandwagon is the only
one geared to mount the
grade to the Republican nom
ination?
Admittedly, a Vice Presi-
dents position as admins
traitor second to the Presi-
dent and mediator of the
Senate may effectively deny
unhampered airing OF per-
Sonal policies, but a receptive
and unprejudiced audience
cannot be denied the peril.

Why all the fuss and furo,
over a so-called rugged con,
vention? Convention history
both Democratic and Repub,
lican, is nothing but a borin,
land sometimes sordidD re
cital Of wheeling and dealiny
before and during the nomi
mating sessions. Inevitabl,
the payoff (payola) comes a
a later date-if the nomine,
is successful. This is democ
racy in action and our poll
ticians love it. Surely ou
man from Missouri is no
naive enough to believe tina
ward heeling delegates hav
anything to do with the Sc
; lection Of a nominee.
