exceptions, of course. One of
them is the civil rights plank,
which can be called as lib
eral" - if that is the right
term - as the civil rights
plank in the Democratic plat
form. 1t does not, however,
set a time limit for the inte-
grafton Of public schools. The
Democrats fixed on 1868.
In deed, the Republican
Party must still be regarded
as the moderate" party,
neither extremely liberal nor
extremely conservative. This
may stand the COP. in good
stead in the elections next
fall. Many Americans are
seriously concerned over the
future of this country. as
it faces international prob
lens of the utmost gravity,
and problems of the internal
economy.
In one matter, the Repub-
lican Party and its candi-
dates for President and Vice
President are not conserva-
tive at all. This is in their
violent opposition to Com
muniSt aggression in any
part of the world - and
particularly in the Western
Hemisphere. This is expressed
in the party platform. While
the party reiterates it's dedi-
cation to the advancement
and preservation Of peace,
there is no hint that the next.
administration, if it should
be Republican, would take
any step toward "appease-
ment' either of Soviet Rus
S4a or HeQ emma.
Peace Issue Stressed
1t is no secret that the
Republican campaign will be
based strongly on the issue
OF peace and war. This is
implicit in the makeup of
the party's national ticket, to
be chosen tonight or tomor-
row.
The argument will be made
again and again that Mr..
Nixon and his expected run
ming mate - Ambassador
Lodge - are better equipped
by experience than Senators
Kennedy and johnson to deal
firmly and successfully with
the men in the Kremlin and
in Peiping.
Mr.. Nixon, as a member of
the House Un-American Ac-
tivitieS Committee and by his
tenacity made possible the
trial and conviction of Alger
Hiss. In the last seven years,
he has Travelled extensively
across the world. and has met
the Communists and their
leaders head-on in a number
of countrieS-and never has
come off second best. Am
basSador Lodge for a similar
period has resisted all efforts
of the Communists to force
their ways within the United
Nations, and has been most
successful in doing so.
Gov. Rockefeller, at this
convention, has been to the
more conservative Republi-
cans. including those backing
Mr.. Nixon for President, like
a red rag to a bull. But the
support of Gov. Rockefeller
has been deemed essential
by Mr.. Nixon and other i'm
pOrtant Republican leaders
if the COP. is to carry New
York. This support Mr.. Nix
on has won, and he does not
intend to have the conven-
ton upset this achievement.

James Denies
Interest IN
Group Origin

Charles James, candidate for
the Montgomery County School
Board, today denied he had any
part "in the formation of the
group which announced support
of Beck, Orleans and James -"
At the same time, James said,
II certainly did not and have
not announced support of Beck
or Mrs. Orleans"
While Mr.. James said in his
prepared statement "the need
has arisen for me to make it
crystal clear" he had no part in
formation of q citizen group
backing him and candidates
Orleans and Beck, it was not
made clear whether his refusal
to be identified with the group
signified opposition to the can
didates named.
Mr.. James pointed out that

BY Hal Boyle

NEW YORK Up - Once upon
a Christmas Eva Santa Claus got
mixed up.
He was late taking off from
the North Pole. When he landed
his sled by the chimney atop the
first home on his route, he reach
ed impatiently for his spectacles
to see which packages belonged
there.
But his spectacles were gone?
IT must have dropped them"
said Santa. "I'll 60 back and
look"
Back his reindeer flew as
Santa peered anxiously down into
the snow. It grew later and later.
Still he could see no sign Of his
spectacles.
"What'll do without my
specs?" Santa said, his red nose
turning blue with worry. II can't
see the addresses on the pack
ages"
He asked all his reindeer in
turn if they could read, and each
shook his head no and stamped
foot.
"Well, I can't wait a moment
longer" said Santa. "I'll have to
do the best I can"
So over the roofs of every land
he flew, dropping off at each
home packages he pulled from
his bag by guess-work. When
Santa got back to the North Pole
he was so discouraged he wouldn't
even drink the steaming hot
toddy Mrs. Claus had prepared
for him.
Morning came, and the greatest
uproar mankind had ever known
arose. Nobody in the whole world
had gotten his own gift. Every
body had gotten somebody else's
present.
Telephones everywhere tangled
in complaint. The Parliaments OF
every foreign country were called
into emergency session. So was
Congress. So with the United
Nations.
What could be done? 1t would
take weeks or months for the
mailmen to correct the errors
Santa had made in single night.
And meanwhile Christmas would
be ruined.

Phantasy With A Moral: Nobody
Can Really Mess Up Christmas

The statesmen debated and de-
bated. Finalley at noon small
boy stood up in the gallery of
the United Nations and piped up:
"Why don't we just keep what
Santa did bring us? AS long as
you get to open package, it's
still Christmas"
The diplomats hesitated mo-
ment, then leaped to their feet
and cheered. Why, of course that
was the only possible answer.
Everybody at heart wants some
thing that belongs to somebody
else. That's only human nature.
So around the world the the
word was flashed: Everybody
open everybody else's present
and keep it or trade it."
So everybody did open every
body else's present. And were they
surprised!
Grandmas and old maids opened
their packages and found dolls
in them, and thep wept with
pleasure and said, at has been
long time since anyone gave us
doll"
Little boys were delighted to
find their packages contained
cufflinks and grown-up ties like
their daddies wore. And the
fathers were pleased to see they
had gotten a real electric train,
something no one had sent them
in their own childhood.
Little girls thrilled to find their
packages held long-heeled shoes
and black lingeries like mamas
usually get.
Everybody who opened up
everybody else's present found it
was just what he wanted all his
life. Every heart was bell of
joy.
There never had been a happier
Yuletide-and all because Santa
Claus got mixed up and lost his
spectacles.
Moral: Nobody can really mess
up Christmas.
