WILLIAM S. WHITE
Senator'S Nashville Speech Is Called
Significant and Risky for Democrats

The first major skirmish in
the new presidential cam
paign has been fought in the
Border States. A hundred
years ago they formed "the
dark and bloody ground" be-
twixt North and South.
The Democratic ticket,
through Vice Presidential
Candidate Lyndon johnson,
has fired the opening salvo
there in a contest of great
meaning and grea5 subtlety
Senator Johnson's speech
last week end at Nashville
was far more significant ma
tionally than was recognized.
And it involved far greater
daring and risk. His decision
to stand all the way in Ten
nesSee for the Democratic
convention pl&tform-includ-
ing by implication Its ultra
liberal civil rights plank
may be seen later as one of
the vital turns of the whole
campaign.
For it amounted to a clear
notice to the Southern and
Border States on the racial,
the religious and the Sec
tional issues of 1860. 1t was
a challenge flung into the
teeth Of regional conserva-
tives and ultra conservatives
everywhere below the Poto-
mac.
And it was an invitation to
the Nixon-Lodge ticket to
take its own risks and seek
its own opportunity in the
Border States and South. It
is an invitation that surely
will be accepted.
Senator Johnson's words
were these:
Wherever may 60 I will
never speak as a Southerner
to Southerners or as a
Protestant to ProteStants or
as a white to whites. I will
speak only as an American
to Americans whatever
their region or their religion
or their race"
Not the least of Senator
JohnSon's purposes in this
quick march into Tennessee
was to assist Senator Estes
Kefauver. Senator Kefauver
is being bitterly pressed for
denomination by an arch
conservative and all-out
segregationiSt, Judge Andrew
Taylor.
Judge Taylor attacked
Senator Kefauver primarily
on the charge that the Sena-
tor sold out the South" by
supporting even moderate
civil rights legislation.
AS this is written the out

personal struggle cannot be
known. CThe primary elec-

Senate has been similar to
that of Senator johnson.
And on the key thing, civil
rights, it has been practically
identical. Thus a Kefauver
rejection in Tennessee would

a heavy blow. 1t would ques-
ton Senator Johnson's abil-
ity to save" the South and

observer can confidently say
this:
Senator Kefauver'S victory
would greatly assist the Ken

South. 1t would indicate that
a Border State having much

national Democratic party on
civil rights because of the
appeal otherwise Of that
party.

only way they could do that
was to humiliate and destroy

DAVID LAWRENCE

After all the big talk at the
two national political con-
ventions about the need for a
firm foreign policy, Congress
next week has an opportunity
to do something concrete to
protect the lives and proper
ties of American citizens
abroad.
There's little sense in ap-
propriating billions for for
eign aid or for assisting the
United Nations to protect the
lives Of foreigners in such
areas as the Congo, when no
provision Is being made to
protect the properties of citi-
zens who already have built
their homes and businesses
abroad.
Why should merican
companies be encouraged
now or hereafter by our Gov
ernment to invest capital in
foreign countries when, as in
the case of Cuba, for in
stance, such properties are
confiscated without satisfac-
tory arrangements for ade-
quate compensation?
The United States is being
asked to assist the new gov
ernment Of the Congo. Yet,
in the face Of flrsthand teSti-
mony to the contrary, the
Congo Prime Minister says
it's a lie that foreign women
have been raped and mis-
treated.
American taxpayers are
footing the bill for supplies
being sent to the Congo
through the United Nations,
but there is no sign Of any
recognition by the Congo
government of its RESPONSE
bilities to the foreigners. In

Patrice Lumumba. who was

just approved an order by his

This applies to some countries

Instead of depending on a
World Court to secure protec-

American citizens, it would
be far better to enter into
