Senator Is Pictured as q Symbol
Of Minority Group Desires

The swelling Kennedy tide
is in part q vote against the
membership committees of
the exclusive clubs, schools
and other status symbols of
this country.
In his patrician person the
Senator from Massachusetts,
seems to stand for some of
the deepest desires of the
many minority groups. eth
mic, racial and religious.
which are so important in
the crucial States. They are
rallying to his standard to
an unusual degree without
appearing to damage his gen.
eral acceptance in the Ma
ton.
Men and women from such
groups have achieved riches
and recognition in many i'm
portant fields. But in some
areas they and their chill
dren, still must stand in line
behind a dominant class
which has furnished all the
preceding Presidents of the
United States and holds the
keys to certain well recog-
nized forms of social status.
There have been other
Presidents who have cast
their lot with the forces
which are identifying them
selves with Senator Kennedy,
Franklin Roosevelt being the
most notable recent example.

taunt he was labeled a
traitor to his class"

There are, Of course, some

current campaign. England

there are many areas where
there is q substantial amount

emotional issues, such as for
eign policy. the Conservatives
in England had much the
better of the argument
against their opponents be-
cause there was a tendency
to let the party In power
continue to handle foreign
affairs and relations with
Premier Khrushchev.
It's too early to tell to
what extent economic issues
will supersede all others in
the campaign in this coun-
try, but there are indications
that voters in many States
are being influenced by the
impact Of unemployment in
certain areas.

Other Presidents have
come from humble surround
ingS as Senator Kennedy
does not: they were Ill
schooled, where his educa-
ton has been the best the
country has to offer. But they
have not had to make what
might be called a major an
cestral breakthrough.
There has been much dis
cusSion about how he has
been doing it, above all. how
he can do it without alienat-
ing members Of the dominant
culture. There will be q great
deal more Of such discussion
if he wins and even If he
loses. But the crowds which
surge forward to touch him
speak for themselves.
The religious issue Is still
there. Stout Republicans and
conservatives still insist he
will not do. But in many
months Of campaigning there
seems to have been no back
ground into which he could
not melt with no loss of
personal dignity.
It would be false and pure
ly sentimental to suggest that
minorities of various sorts
all love one another and are
ready on purely intellectual
grounds to spring to each
others defense. Mayors OF
cities can testify to their
sharp struggles against each
other for power and recogni-
ton. What they do UNDER

respect stronger-than they
were before World War II,
and do not need our support
as much as they did a few
years ago. Hence, q certain
amount Of indifference and
more criticism than they
could afford in the past on
our actions, both domestic
and international. The polls
repeatedly taken by the USIA
may reflect that point Of
view. Any American who
visits European n countries
these days can find this
reaction.
There is another element
which seems to be easily
CLOSED over: The growing
nationalism in every one Of
the allied and friendly coun-
tries which is reflected in a
greater criticism Of every
thing alien. For it is a fact
that while the sentiment Of
nationaliSm has reached q
peak all over the world, we
alone continue to be the only
internationally minded coun-
try. Very few, If any. people
abroad are at present con-
cerned over what the world
says about them. We are
deeply concerned. The French
have been under strong crit
icism from abroad-including
America and Britain - over
their handling Of the Algerian
situation. Neither the govern
ment Of Gen. de Gaulle nor
the French news media and
public opinion have been
affected in any way by this
fact. France is proceeding in
Algeria in keeping with what
it considers its national inter-
eSts.
The lowering Of American
prestige, which has been
made a major battle cry Of
the Democratic Party, is not
affecting, however. the key
stone of our defense system
against aggressive interna-
tional communism. Quite the
contrary: In recent months
the allies, aware of the flnan-
cial and economic difficulties
which we are bound to en-
counter in the years, have
considerably strengthened
their fighting potential for
any eventuality. They follow
the ancient Roman slogan,
IF you want peace. prepare
yourself for war" The recent
decision Of the French Parlia-
ment to spend $1.2 billion in
the next few years for nuclear
weaponS-thus relieving us Of
some additional expenditures
is one Of these indications.

Reserve Board Eases
Credit for Christmas

by noting that a somewhat
similar credit-easing move was
announced several weeks in ad-
vance last August.
The board is independent Of
the executive branch and its
seven members represent both
political parties. Whether there
was a split vote on the decision
to make yesterdays announce
ment was not revealed.
Ample Credit Planned
The board traditionally al
lows for some credit expansion
during the Christmas season.
However, during most of the
postwar years it did not make
full allowance for the Decem-
ber bulge in demand for loans.
Whereas this year it is saying
there will be ample credit, it
usually has not gone quite this
far because it was trying to curb
imitation through o tight
money" policy.
With the economy now falter-
ing and inflationary pressures
subsiding, the board presumably
feels free to loosen credit and
encourage borrowing which
could give the economy a lift.
Here are the three actions
which the board plans:
l. Starting November "a, the
$500 banks in the Reserve Sys-
tenn will be allowed to count
cash on hand-vault cash-in
fulfilling the legal requirement
that they maintain specified re-
serves to back up deposits in
checking accounts. Congress in
structed the board in 1859 to
take this action-the third and
final move in a gradual process.
2. Also on November "a,
banks in smaller communities
will be instructed to keep larger
minimum reserves-12 per cent
Of checking deposits instead Of
the present IL per cent.
3. Effective Decsmber 1, the
Evening star., 1960-10-27

reserve requirements for big
banks in New York and Chicago
will be lowered by / per cent
to 161a per cent. This fulfills
a congressional directive that
banks in these cities be put on
the same reserve basis as those
in other large cities where the
requirement is l61a per cent.
The board said the net effect
Of the three steps will be the
freeing Of $1.3 billion now tied
up as reserves. It said about 81
billion Of this amount will be
needed to meet the pre- Christ
mas expansion Of the currency
supply. That leaves $500 mil
lion as the basis for an ex-
pansion Of credit. Since 81 Of
excess reserves can form the
basis for 81 in loans, the po-
tential lending power Of the
banks thus will be increased by
$2.1 billion.

stand is their mutual survival
interest and the need to keep
open the doors Of opportunity
for their children.
Democratic city politicians
are enjoying q near-una-
nimity q m ong minority
groups which has made their
life considerably easier in
this campaign. Democratic
women have found that 1t Is
effective when talking with
women's groups about the
religious issue to plead that
every American mother has
the right to hope her son can
be President.
The discussion is some
times carried on at less ele-
waited levels with minority
leaders urged to remember
that it's their turn to have
the best. This is what might
be called the Snob appeal in
reverse. "Why shouldn't we
get some of our own back?"
a Kennedy supporter asked.
Everybody knows Joe Ken
nedy couldn't get into the
Somerset Club in Boston If
he gave them the Merchan-
disc Mart for an initiation
fee"
Senator Kennedy makes no
such appeal for himself,
though he must be aware
that his success would be the
final answer to some frus-
trations suffered by his kind.
And he has used the under
dog appeal effectively both
in the primaries and In the
campaign against his Re-
publican rival.

Progress of Campaign and Predictions
OfCIose Outcome Likened to u. S. Drive
DAVID LAWRENCE

Just q year ago they had
an election in Great Britain
which parallels to a large ex-
tent the presidential cam
paign IN the United States.
Whether the result will
also be comparable remains
to be seen. The forecasters
generally predicted q close
election in Britain, but the
Conservatives won by a land
slide, increasing their ma
jority in Parliament by a big
margin.
The issues, the methods of
campaigning. the polls and
the nature Of the television
speeches in Britain's cam
paign, which lasted from
September 8 to October 8,
1859, are amazingly like what
has been reported in the
newspapers of this country
in the last several weeks.
In Britain, for instance,
the polls showed the Con-
Servative and the Labor
Parties running neck and
neck.
In Britain, the undecided
voters were very large in
number in the public opinion
polls. After the election was
over, it was apparent that
many Of them didn't even
vote.
A book. entitled The Brit
iSh General Election of 1859,
has just been published by
the Macmillan Co. of Lon
don. It was written by Prof.
D. E. Butler of oxford in
collaboration with Richard
Rose. This is the fifth In a
series Of oxford studies of
British elections, and Prof.
Butler also wrote those on the
general elections of 1855 and
1851, so his analyses may be
