Appeal to Editors
In Deep South

ATLANTA, May 7 (AP). -
The chairmen of the Demo-
cratic and Republican National
Committees campaigned for
\ their respective parties from
the same platform in the Deep
South today.
Paul M. Butler, the Demo-
cratic chairman, told the 18th
annual meeting of the National
Editorial Association that the
I issue of human rights is the
most important moral prob
lem" facing the nation.
He said civil rights must be
. dealt with nationally as well
as on local and state levels and
that there we're indications ad-
|. ditional civil rights legislation
!. would be introduced next year.
: His Republican counterpart,
COP Chairman ThruSton B.
Morton outlined five reasons
!. why he believed Republicans
: should continue in office and
{, criticized Democrats mildly for
Z their stand on the national de-
fense issue.
: Mr.. Morton boosted Vice
: President Nixon but did not
! mention him by name. The
Republican party has an able
I, leader and campaigner and a
man who has to find out all
) the facts" he said.

few personal belongings with
them. Most of the crews are
Negroes. As the crops ripen in
