any interference whatsoever by
the Federal government in the
field of education :"
Like Taft and Borah, Senator
Goldwater thinks segregation in
the schools unwise and unjust.
But Il am not prepared" he
writes. Ito impose this judgment
OF mine on the people of Missis-
sippi or South Carolina, or to tell
them what methods should be
adopted and what pace should be
kept in striving towards that
goal. That is their business, not
mine"
This is no voice in the wilder
ness. In spite of all the organi-
cation. sentiment and pressure
groups against it, it is the voice
Of nearly all the people of the
South and it is the voice of the
big wing of the Republican Party
for which Senator Goldwater
stands and Senator Taft once
stood.

Bucks for the Battle
Says Conservative

Editor. The Farmville Herald:
Citizens of conservative politi-
cal convictions can do something
for their cause rather than wiring
ing their hands in despair this
election year.
Listed here are six United
States Senators who have fought
valiantly for the principles held
dear by conservatives. This year
these men are fighting for their
political lives against the forces
Of the left-Wing. They and their
conservative voting records are
as follows:
Senator Styles Bridges, New
Hampshire, 90 per cent Con-
sentative,
Senator Carl T. Curtis, Nebraska,
81 per cent Conservative,
Senator Andrew F. SchoeppeI.
Kansas, 81 per cent Conserva-
tive,
Senator Henry Dwarshak, Idaho,
IS per cent Conservative,
Senator Gordon Allott, Colorado,
70 per cent Conservative.
Senator Karl E. Mundt. South
Dakota, 70 per cent Conserv-
alive.
If the left-wing forces manage
to defeat even one of these good
men, then it means that the
Voice Of Conservatism is that
much closer to ultimate silence
in the land. The left-wing forces
will spent thousands of dollars
to defeat any conservative. Con-
sequently Conservative Senators
direly need conservative dollars
with which to fight back for you.
In order to do your bit for the
men who have been doing more
than their bit for all conserva-
tives in all states. Campaign con-
tributions for these fighting Con-
sentative Senators may be sent
to these addresses:
Styles Bridges Campaign Ac-
count, Is School Street, Con-
cord, N. H.

tors, ] cannot think of it.

Emergence OF Conservative PARTY?
Your land and my land
Shall be our land one day

Your land and my land
Shall be our land one day !"
VOWING THERE ARE more
conservatives than liberals, Re-
publican Congressman Leo E.
Allen, of Illinois, is convinced
that Republicans and Southern
Democrats will become one party
eventually.
He calls it historical trend "
A shorter name would be "a nat
ural.
But Mr. Allen must see the
thing in right proportion. When
he finds difficulty in the unwill-
ingness of conservative Southern
ers to lose seniority rights built
up as Democrats, it is obvious
that he thinks Of his vision as
coming about by Southern Demo
Gratis joining up as Republicans.
That wouldn't necessarily follow
The Southerners control their
states more than the Republicans
do. And if the 1860 Presidential
election shows the Republican
Party still heavily a minority
one. even though able with South
ern Democratic support to elect
a President, a nose-count of the
three political groups might show
approximately an equal number
Of Republicans, Southern Demo
Gratis and National Democrats. If
the first two merge to make a
majority in the nation as they
now coalesce to make one in Con-
greSs, why should it be consider
ed that Southern Democrats were
Joining the Republican Party?
Why shouldn't it be a matter of
adjustment and balance as to who
loses seniority with the. South
erners favored, if and when the
merger organized the Congress?

Merrimac Sunk
At Santiago

Editor, The Farmville Herald.
There is an error in my letter
in last Fridays paper.
1t was the Merrimac that was
sunk in the harbor at Santiago de

sunk good while before the war
started in the harbor at Havana.
Admiral Hobson sunk the Merri-
mac to block the Spanish fleet.

Until September 22nd. the DAYS were
all longer than the nights. One reason
why Fall is pleasant is because the
earth has stored up much heat during
the summer and releases it only grad
ually Therefore, the nights are not
quite as cold in early Fall as they are
in early Spring The nights seem to re-
tain some of the warmth of summer.
while the days are not too hot, bringing
in the first cool breezes Of Fall, whereas
IN the early Spring the days become
hot but the nights are uncomfortably
cool.
Fall brings with it, then climax Of
nature, the climax Of sports in the
United States, and the wonderful out
door opportunity you should not miss
- for the outdoors will not beckon a.
gain for most of us until Spring, 1861.

in saving the fiscal solvency of the
United States in recent years. Senator
A. Willis Robertson, a student Of fl
ance and an expert in banking, has
served outstandingly in these fields.
Congressman Howard Smith, chairman
of the House Rules Committee, has been
a power in ferreting out dangerous
Legislation and in a coalition of con-
servatives Of both parties checked ir-
responsible legislation.
We, in Virginia, can send conserva-
tives to the Congress to checkmate
radicals In this district, Congressman
Watkins M. Abbitt is unopposed, how
ever, his name will be on the ticket and
rousing good vote of confidence should
be given him.
Thus the congressional elections this
year may be more important than the
presidential election. There is very
little difference we can see so far in the
goals Of the two presidential candi-
dates. The platforms of both the De-
mocratic and Republican parties are
unsatisfactory and utraliberal
We do not mean to say that the
power Of the president is not great, but
we do believe coalition of conser-
vative congressman is the only check
we, the people, can place on him.

Fall Pleasant Season

WE usher in Fall this year with most
" of our attention fixed on politics,
international crises, and economic con-
siderations
But Fall is time to reminisce, a time
to enjoy nature and the outdoors, and
time Of beauty in the fields and woods
around us. Perhaps the most pleasant
weather Of the year occurs in the Fall,
when cool, crisp days come alive with
the color of foliage in all their brilliant
dress
Fall this year extends from the 22nd
of September until four days before
Christmas, on December 21st.
And in our Fall days, the night will
all be longer than the days, a process
which always begins at the autumnal
equinox, and on the 21st of December,
the shortest day of the year will be ex-
perienced.

question. Representative Allen
probably imagines that as con-
tinuing to be soft-pedaled or as
calling for Southern surrender,
too. Yet who knows for sure that
a majority Of the Republicans in
the merger would not be willing
to settle for the Goldwater po-
sition. He represents pretty
stable sector of the Republican
Party, and Senator Taft, who
took the same position, repre-
sented an even larger sector. The
fact of both national conventions
being dictated to by organized
liberals doesn't mean the country
is as much against the South as
would seem. There is conceiv-
ably a majority for the Gold

Ing has been done by the coun-
Gil about use of the parks seq

tivities until after Labor Day

gated. This year, white chill
dren were taken on county
buses to the amusement parks

children were taken to inte-
grated swimming facilities in
Washington.

the recreation program, the
citizens said, would, of course
