Senator Kennedy did just

Senator johnson then thanked

Reporters puzzling over his
lackadaisacal performance here
were assured by the candidate

In a message dated yester-

four-point request of the
United Nations:

the central government and
the provincial governments.

Lumumba was legal under the

TEXAS VICTORY

Cap Senator johnson said
today that religion is the only

The Democratic vice presi-
Dental candidate told a re-
porter that while the religious
issue in his home State is
@bad," he doesn't think it will
keep the Democrats from car
rying the State for Senator
Kennedy.
Senator johnson said recent
Statewide polls have shown
Senator Kennedy ahead Of Vice
President Nixon. his Republi-
can opponent. But he said at
least IL per cent Of the voters
were listed as undecided in
these polls:
Senator Kennedy refused to
let himself get fenced in with
a suggestion from Mr.. Nixon
that both candidates agree on
a cutoff date after which
neither would discuss the re-
ligious issue.
1t was the view of the DEM
ocratic nominees associates
that Mr.. Nixon, a Quaker. could
well afford to say he will not
discuss religion, since he is not
under fire on the score.
But they said Senator Ken
nedy could hardly say he will
not answer attacks made on
him as a Catholic. They par
ticularly fear scurrilous charges
may be leveled against him in
the final hours before the voters
go to the polls on November 8.
In a carefully worded state
ment in reply to Mr.. Nixon,
Senator Kennedy said:

bate on this subject right now.

appointed foreign minister. a
past from which he had been
dismissed by Mr.. Lumumba.
Mr.. Bomboko now is en- route
to represent the new govern
ment before the U. N. Security
Council in New York.
While the governmental crisis
may have been resolved by Mr..
Kasavubu's determined action,
a new and bitter episode in the
cold war is certain now to de-
velop. The Russians, who have
sent planes, trucks and techni-
clans to the Congo to prop up
Mr.. Lumumba, may be expected
to react with violence to the
Kasavubu coup.
In less than a week the
round-faced, enigmatic Kasa-
vubu, often described as q mys-
tic, has upset the government,
ended an incipient civil war, put
an undisciplined army largely
under U. N. control, and brought
some measure of unity to the
country.
Still uncertain is the position
Of Katanga in the dispute.

mines, is the economic key to
the Congo and without it
any government will be in diff

was under arreSte after he

will be placed against him.

papers: "A strong editorial policy is
the best indication Of a good news
paper. 1t matters not whether an in
dividual agrees with what newspaper
says editorially - it does matter a
great deal as to whether the reader,
through the medium Of the editorial,
gives consideration and thought to the
subject at hand If he strongly opposes
a newspapers opinion, it is all for the
best since it indicates that he has read
and considered the subject and has
found it to be contrary to his own be-

Control jealousy

we know some do not deserve the ac-
claim, or financial success, they are
given.
Nevertheless, the happiest citizens
among us are those who have developed
a philosophy and psychology which en-
ables them to applaud the success of
others and to avoid the habit of con-
slant comparison and envy. 1t is always
good to remember that life is rather
long pull, that there is plenty of time
to exhibit ones talents, and that if one
is deserving, talented, or blessed with
unusual ability, inevitably the word will
get around.
Therefore, patience, sympathy and
understanding will do much toward pre-
venting jealousy. Also, the success of
another has never vet made it impos-
sible for you, or someone else, to achieve
like success.

DECENT figures show that the high
'est paid executive in the United States
in 1859 was probably Frederic G. Don
ner, chairman of the General Motors
Corporation. His salary was $201 $4,000,
and he received bonuses amounting to
S469,0OO.OO.
Therefore, Mr. Donner's total earn
ings from General Motors, as it's chair
man, was $3.50, $4,000.
Of course, under the federal tax
schedule, as it is now set up, Mr.. Don
ner paid about $50O,000OO of this to the
federal government Nevertheless, he
had something under S175,0OO.00 left.
The interesting part about the latest
list Of top executive salary recipients
is the fact that the automobile indus
try has moved up in the standings" so
that automobile executives now head the
the list to striking degree
For example, of the first ten names
on the list, nine of them are executives
of automobile companies. Seven of them
are executives Of the General Motors
Corporation. The total salaries (plus
bonuses) of these seven General Motors
executives amount to over $3,5OO,0OO 100.
Most of that, of course, went to the
federal government in the form of taxes.
An interesting facet of the high ex-
ecutive salary picture is the bite taken
by federal taxes after ones income is
already very high. AS one calculator

OF all the emotions which afflict US,
- one of the most sinister is simple
jealousy. Not a one among us is COM
pletely free of this reaction, although
all of us realize that it is the root of
much evil, and certainly. an unbecom-
ing and unproductive emotion.
Generally speaking, we tend to be
jealous of others who receive acclaim,
money, or success = especially at
young age. If we happen to have been
a competitor, or to have sought success
in the same field sometimes the temp
tation to be jealous is great.
The one thing to remember, in con-
sidering jealous emotions, is the fact
that jealousy only destroys those who
are jealous. In so many cases jealousy
is unjustified, and is the result of sus-
picion, envy and misunderstanding. 1t
is always surprising how many people
earn the laurels they receive, although
