In a short while, on November
9, Americans from Maine TO Ha-
wall and from Texas to Alaska
will be going to the polling pl &C.
es near their homes to east their
votes for the candidates they be-
heve will do the best job as Pres
ident, as Governor, as represen-
t0tives of the people in the var
iOus councils where our laws are
made or as sheriffs and judges
right in our own home c0mmuni
ties. What could be more import
ant in our country than this gen.
eral election and the votes that
we cast in the election?
But, how can We know ahead
Of time, just what we can expect
q a particular man or woman 1t
we should vote them into office.
Can we find some reliable indi-
cations as to what they will do
or us, whether they are interested
in the things thai concern us and
whether they will be able to carry
out teir promises? How can we
learn enoug about htese people
whose names will appear on the
ballot on November 8. so that we
will be able to make wise
choice?
Experience with government IN
eur country has shown that where
the citizens are alert and inter
ested in what their elected Off
eials are doing. they are most
likely to have people in office who
will get the job done for them
chat will be able to build the
schools, roads, and develope the
water resources and make up
and enforce the necessary laws
for the benefit of their cOmmuN-
tiles. Let's see then what we
can do to find out what We need
tc know about the candidates n
the November 8 general election,
before it is too late.
For one thing. we can attend
meetings where these candidates
are talking about their plans and
where they are asking for sug-
gestions. We can read in the
newspaper what the CANDIDATES
are saying about the things we
think are important, or We can
listen to radio reports On what
is happening. Groups that do not
support any particular candidates,
like the League of Women Vot-
ers, have very helpful informa.

for the trial. Some observers be-
lieve it will he six months after
the trial before anv decision is

The land suit. filed by the Hopis
in 1883, is to determine who &C.
tually owns the 21a million dis
puted acres. Both the Navaios
and the Hopis claim an execu-
tive order of 1882 permits their
respective occupancy of the area.
One of the main reasons for
the slowness of the trial is the

PoyoIo Signed
By President
BY the Associated Press

President Eisenhower today
signed into law a scaled-down
antipayola bill aimed at elimin-
ating deceptive television and
radio practices exposed by con-
gressional investigators.
The bill, outlawing quiz-show
fixing and payola. is an out
growth Of headline making
House inquiries into fraudulent
TV shows and undercover pay
offs to disc Jockeys by record
promoters.
Although the Senate stripped
the bill Of some stiff penalty
provisions drafted by the
House, sponsors contend it still
provides power for the Govern
ment to deal Adequately and
Justly" with deceptive broad
casting practices.
Representative Harris, Demo-
crat Of Arkansas, principal
author of the bill and chair
man Of the subcommittee that
exposed the quiz show and pay
ola scandals, used those words
in winning House approval
that sent the measure to Mr..
Eisenhower.
Perhaps the most significant
feature of the bill is a pre-
vision for fines. This is de-
signed to give the Federal
Communications Commission
more flexibility in policing the
broadcasting industry by au-
thoriZing it to fine wrong
doing television and radio sta
tions up to 81, 900 a day for a
maximum of 10 days.
When first passed by the
House, the bill carried no
limitation on how much a sta
ton could be fined. The SEN
ate wrote in the $4,000 ceiling
and also wrote in specific pro-
cedures under which broad
casters fined by the FEC could
appeal to the courts for review.

dency and not Cardinal Cush-

Differs With Polling
He differed once again with
Rev. Daniel A. Polling over the
circumstances surrounding his
last-minute refusal of an invi-
tation to participate in a 1947
fund-raising dinner for an
"interfaith" chapel in Phila-
delphia.
The Senator maintained that
he was invited as a representa-
tive Of the Catholic Church
and withdrew when he learned
through an aide, that the
Catholic clergy in the area re-
garded the chapel, which he
said is located in the basement
of a Protestant church and has
never been used for Catholic
services, with a good deal OF
concern"
DR.. Polling, in a telegram
sent to a minister at last nights
meeting, denied that Senator
Kennedy had been invited as
a representative of his church
and maintained he had backed
out Of the invitation at the
insistence Of the late Dennis

outs. Kennedy aides were i'm

that produced the crowds. The

Khrushchev Visit
In a speech prepared for a
Dallas rally later today, Sena-
tor Kennedy turned his atten-
ton for the first time to the
impending visit of Soviet Pre-
mier Khrushchev.
He warned the Communist
leader not to be deceived" il
he hears Democrats. 'inquiring
into our lost prestige, our shaky
defenses, our lack of leadership

should remind Americans that

ganda is sufficient to stop Com
munist aggression.

said, land that is a strong
