If Mr.. Kennedy were q 10th Century Roman

If Mr.. Nixon were a 18th Century Quaker
he would certainly make poor Commander

Christian clergymen that we should have
groups telling us that Kennedy is a good lay
man and therefore dangerous, while Nixon
is a poor layman and therefore reliable!
But logic does NOT move or correct the
bigot. Only one thing will do this: a resound-

the anti-Semites, racialists, anti-refugee and
isolationist elements
The same mailing lists which a short time
ago distributed hundreds of thousands of
copies of the forged "Protocols of the Elders
of Zion, are now being used to spread flood
of false "Oaths of the Knights of Columbus"
and werd tale of how 'subversives'' in the
United Automobile Workers captured and
killed the Democratic Party in Michigan.
Although Nixon has said that he does not
welcome the support of such elements the
fact is that when he came to Texas few
days ago their spokesman sat the plat
form with him.
Kennedy, who has consistently voted outside
the reactionary OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES bloc
which controls the Congress, is being sabo-
tagged by the southern Democratic machines
even when they are going on record with
formal statements of support And in this
campaign of hatred, which unites the veto
mentality and negative blocs of society, the
pious overtones are being sung by the Protes-

There is nothing more important in this

During the rise of the industrial centers
a century ago in the eastern and middle states
the same cries were heard. Many Americans
of the older (Protestant) immigrations were
frightened by an immigrant labor supply
predominantly Roman Catholic. Mob violence
resulted and the "Know- Nothing Party was
organized to rally anti-refugee, anti-Catholic
and nativist sentiment State governments
and Congressional seats were captured and
perhaps only the Civil War prevented rend-
ing of the republic along other lines-those
of religious prejudice and bigotry. In the
campaign of 1884, after the war, Protestant
clergyman, Rev. S. d. Burchard, attempted
to raise the old nativist banner by referring
to the Democrats as the party of "Rum, Ro-
manism and Rebellion" But by this time the
people of the middle states had learned to
accept history and the slogan kicked back
disastrously for the Republicans.
In 1928 prejudice again became a major
political force, particularly in those states
of the South in which the old Protestant cul-
ture-religion had maintained it's strength.
Since that time much has been done by the
schools and by organizations such as the
National Conference of Christians and Jews
to educate for tolerance and understanding.
Yet in 1860 we again find the effort being
made to rally the most vicious elements Ill
our society: the most vehement supporters
of Nixon in the south are the anti-Catholics,

University Enrolment

MISSOULA-C Continuing an up

State University this fall totaled
1857 students, new an-time enroll

per cent over last years 3,615 total,
according to Registrar Lee Smith.
Following postwar drop, enroll

steady recovery and last year ex-
ceeded the previous all-time total es-
tablished in the CT flood year of
1948. The trend toward higher regis
trations has been particularly appar-
emit in the last few years, Smith noted.
The campus this fall has 1,131 more
students than checked in for the fall
quarter of 1854, an increase of SO
percent. The largest portion of the
increase has occurred in the past
three years and the school has noted

Senate Antitrust and Monopoly sub
committee of Congress is doing to try
and protect the American consumer.
Kefauver said the lack of true price
competition is ga direct result of the
Big Few playing follow-the-leader
with prices, and pointed specifically
to the Big Steel and drug industries.
Pointing out that the steel indus
try is operating at $3.50 of capacity,
the Tennessee Senator said, "Big
Steel is not satisfied to make profits
from high volume, and then to take
their losses in recessions. 1t wants
to keep on making the same profits

Southern Methodist University, Dallas, Texas
According to a report by UPI from Austin,
Texas DALLAS MORNING NEWS, October
2, 1860, page 20) Rev. w. A. Criswell of the
First Baptist Church of Dallas has again made
a bitter personal attack Senator John F.
Kennedy's integrity. Among other things he
said, Gone, he's either a sorry Catholic, in
which event he ought to get out of church.
Two, if he's good Catholic he shouldn't be
President" (Mr. Criswell made no reference
TO Mr.. Nixon or his religion, of which one
of his strongest supporters had recommended
him by saying, she doesn't let it bother him. ~
Reminded that Kennedy has said that no
threat of punishment would make him change
his mind about separation of church and state,
Criswell said: Hes lying about that. You
just don't know the terrible fear of excom-
munication a Catholic has, Criswell went
on to say that all Catholics should be barred
from public office
The proposal that 100000 Ameri-
cans-taxpayers, veterans and alI--be dis
franchised may sound too fantastic to merit
the conversation of sensible citizens. Com
ing, however from a man>who claims to be
head of the largest Baptist church in the
world" and uttered in section which
still has demogogues trying to keep 49,

Nuffer Called
On Erroneous
Comp. Statement

An examination of the 1857 legis-
lativeIreeords reveals that a statement
made early last week in Great Falls
by Don Nutter, Republican nominee
for Governor, on Occupational Di-
sease legislation to be erroneous. The
charge that Nutter erred was made
by Ernest Salvas, Butte, Montana
board member of Mine-Mill.
'"The record shows Nutter intro
duced an occupational disease bill
in the Senate" Salvas pointed out,
"but in the closing hours of the ses-
sion he led the fight to kill his own
bill because it did not contain a
waiver clause.
s'The record also reveals Nutter
amended his occupational disease
bill to include the obnoxious waiver
clause when it became known such
a clause was desired by special corr
poration interests who would be
effected by occupational disease
legislation.

COULD DIG OUR OWN CRAVE

eff we price ourselves out of our
skins, we will have lost this Cold War
by default he said. eve will, to
put it in the ominous words of Pre-
mier Khrushchev, have buried our
selves.
Kefauver said he and % co-spon-
sors have introduced bill that would
create Department of the Consumer
to represent us all at the Cabinet
level, headed by a Secretary of Com
sumers, appointed by the President
and confirmed by the Senate, to
protect and promote the interests of
the people as consumers of goods
and services.
''The entire structure of our free
competitive enterprise system is weak
ened when the Big Few fail to func-
ton within the true meaning of the
word competition. When price COM
petition loses to this game of follow
the-leader and prices continue to
climb, the consumers dollar goes up
in smoke like dry leaf in the path
of a forest fire.
eff our antitrust laws won't
stop this spiral of destruction, then
we must devise new and stronger
laws. For if we do not find the
answer to the problem, we will be
in very serious trouble economically
as a nation and as consumers"

$40 for 1000 pills, can and do

Smaller companies can sell these
pills at profit for a fraction of what
the big companies are getting from
the drug stores, he said, but the con-
sumner has little chance to buy the
less expensive product because doc
tors in most cases write the trade
name of the pill on their prescription
blank. Little companies do not have
multi-million dollar program of
promotion and the consumers are
paying for the promotional program
in their drugs.
Consumers have no choice because
they must buy the drug-sometimes
to stay alive or to ease intolerable
pain, Kefauver said.
''My personal view," the Senator
said. els that this nation is blessed
with the finest drugs in the world
and cursed by the fact that
thousands and thousands of our
citizens who need them the most,
simply cannot afford to buy them.
Pricing policies of our big basic
industries put us in jeopardy in the
foreign markets, directly affect the
defense budget and constitute a SER
ious danger, fearful to contemplate,
