Earnest Keynoter

An intense young man who had
done his political homework delivered
the traditional keynote speech to the
Democratic convention last night It
was neither the best nor the worst of
such quadrennial exercises, and was, in
TACT, about on par with the flood of
oratory with which the party launched
its 1860 jubilee in Los Angeles.
Idaho'S Senator Church came to Con-
greSS with a reputation as a SPELL
binder He took the platform last night
conceding that keynoterS are normally
expected to perform like cheer leaders
at pep rally. 1t would be an exaggera-
ton to say that he held his convention
audience Spellbound, or that he moved
them to any unusual pitch of excite
ment. Whatever his SkillS, the earnest
Mr.. Church is not latter-day william
Jennings Bryan nor a platform show
man of the Franklin Delano Roosevelt
cast.
Still, Mr.. Church passed this elo-
cutionary test in sufficiently work.
manlike manner He viewed with awe
the mountainous responsibilities of our
age and concluded, unsurprisingly, that
the Republican Party has proved itself
not quite up to the task of execu-
tive leadership. He gave 'em help for
everything from farm to foreign policy,
and blamed them for everything from
traffic jams to high interest rates. He
was more critical of Republicans than
Informative about Democrats. In this
respect, Mr.. Church was keynoting what
may be, and in fact already have been,
the major targets of attack, but he re-
Trained from saying what will be Of
fered in place of the shortcomings which
he so vehemently deplored.
1t is probable that the television will
in time do away with the keynote speech.
Too many people now listen to it. A form
OF discourse that periodically insults
normal intelligence can not be expected
permanently to survive.

Insane Fourth

1t looks as if the good peo-
pie of the United States have
set another worlds record.
Unlike the high jump and
pole vault records, this one
won't help us to win the
Olympics; however, it is in
dicative of the lengths to
which we will go to win in
the highway rat race.
The slaughter of 438 peo-
pie in celebration of a Safe
and-Sane Fourth" is no
mean achievement. Rome at
its goriest could not ap-
proach that record. But there
is no reason for complacency,
we must look ahead. Labor
Day is coming up, and if we
labor hard enough, we can
undoubtedly SurpaSS our in
sanity record.
Every red-blooded man,
woman and child should be
willing to spill his, or some
one else's, gore to maintain
our record-breakil4g pace.
The sky is the limit and the
rules are simple. This is one
game where you may get
away with murder-even you
own.

Congo Moral

Within less than a fortnight after
its attainment of full independence from
Belgium, the Congo Republic now finds
itself on the brink of dissolution. Mutt
nous native troops, who have melted
other elements of the population to do
the same thing, have drunken deep and
irreSponSibly Of the heady wine of free
dom, and of plain hard liquor. And they
have reverted, as consequence, to jun
gle Savagery OF sort that threatens to
kill OFF their fiedgling nation even before
1t has had chance to walk.
This is an imminent prospect, not
remote one. And that is why the new
CongoleSe government - whose leading
hgureS are President Kasavubu and
Premier Lumumba = has urgently ap-
pealed to the United Nations to inter-
vene in an effort to bring the situation
under control before everything is ir-
reparably torn aSunder. Somehow or
other, even though the mechanics are
unclear at the moment, the u. N. may be
able to do the job, but the news indicates
that the hour is very late, perhaps hope
lessly so, for genuinely successful rescue
work
At any rate, according to a British
diplomat in Leopoldville, the situation,
as it seems right now, may be summed
up as follows: "The Congo is falling
apart. This has become country that is
a body without head Everything is
crippled. All is chaos. Law and order are
rapidly diSintegrating." Such pesSimism,
clearly, has solid basis in fact-the
fact, for instance, that there are over
200 claShing political factions in the
country or the fact that there are bitter
tribal rivalrieS initiating against real
national unity; or the fact that Katanga,
the country'S richest province, has
seeded and proclaimed itself an inde-
pendent state. .t
Possibly the U. n, despite all this,
may be able to keep the Congo Republic
alive. The more one looks at the Situa-
ton, however, the more one suspects
that this mean and ugly drama, this
story of independence gone berSerk, this
vile spectacle of pillage and rapine, has
but one real moral in it-namely, that
freedom is a Supremely dangerous thing
when given to those who are neither dis
ciplined nor educated enough to know
what to do with it.

Boorish Guest

There can be no doubt that Nikita
KhruShchev, with characteristic con-
tempt for the rules of international good
manners, abused the hospitality of Aus
tria during his recent nine-day visit
there. Speaking for the Vienna govern
ment, Chancellor julius Raab has made
that much very clear, and he has done
so in commercially blunt language.
In effect, in an informal speech in
directly responding to formal official
American and West German protests,
DR.. Raab has agreed with Washington's
and Bonn'S complaint against the Soviet
Premier'S booriSh and threatful conduct
while a guest of neutral Austria.
This refers particularly, of course,
to the touring Russians poisonous and
altogether untruthful diatribes against
President Eisenhower and the United
States and Chancellor Adenauer and
West Germany.
Another important point made by DR..
Raab in his speech is that the Austrian
people, though strictly neutral in mill
tary sense, believe Overwhelmingly in
Western political concepts, are convinced
of the rightneSS and strength of those
ideas and have no reason to fear Com
munist competition. All of which, we
think, casts much doubt on the thesis
that the United States is disastrouSly
losing international prestige. while Mr.,
khrushchev is riding high, wide and
handsome.

If there is anything sillier
than Virginia's new Sunday
blue law it is almost sure to
be the sight of an officer of
the "law" trying to enforce
it.
Surely the State which
gave Jefferson and the other
greats to the Nation and
posterity, who fought so
resolutely for the natural
rights of man, has something
bigger to do than to get into
the anti-American, anti
Christian, anti-Jewish, anti
everything that is = freedom
business of telling free men
when they can and can't sell
this and that.
This is stupidity. For it
makes second class citizens
out Of everybody at one time
or another.
