A former New Dealer is
credited with having said,
"The American people are
such fools you can do any,
thing to them and they won't
resent it," After the Demo-
cratic civil rights plank, his
remark could be extended
further to say, that not only
can you do anything to them,
you can take away all of their
liberties, and they will sit on
the side-lines and applaud.
Although these civil rights
measures would eliminate all
individual freedom, this did
not keep the delegates from
exhibiting wild enthusiasm
for the platform.
The great concern over
measures to enforce rights
guaranteed under the 14th
Amendment, while ignoring
the usurpation Of our rights
guaranteed under the 10th
Amendment, leads to the
question, why the difference?
I can tell you why. The
people who believe that: 1.-THE
powers not delegated TO the
United States by the Consti-
tuition, nor prohibited by it to
the States, are reserved to the
States respectively. or to the
people," do not bloc vote. 1t
is the 10th Amendment which
should have been given top
priority, since it is usurpation
of power under this amend
ment which has caused all of
the trouble in the first place.
The 10th Amendment is one
of the Bill of Rights, and it
is the foundation of the gov
ernment by which we lived
and proSpered as no nation or
people have progressed since
the civilization of man began.
Yet, not a single man had
the temerity to hold out and
defend our guarantees under
the Bill of Rights. What a
mockery! What a travesty!
When our people, East,
South, North and West, de-
eide they will support only
candidates who will uphold
all Of the Constitution-not
just the 14th Amendment,
and will cast their votes in
bloc, you will see a change in
these politicians. They will
then jump on the bandwagon
to support the Constitution
as they have sworn to do
when taking their oathS of
Office.

I heartily indorse the Re-
publican ticket" Both of
these men have, in the past,
stressed a strong and firm
approach to any of RuSsia's
wild and intimidating antics.
To add to it, Gov. Rookie
feller's blessing is about all
we could ask.
Both candidates wives are
refined and notedly conser-
vative women. We Just can't
discount their influence at
any time. I am most assuredly
confident that with these
two fine men and their ladies',
the Republicans will again
carry on to victory and hopes
for the safety and security
of America.

The mob demands welfare.
Fauntleroy and Wintergreen
are pledged to provide it. To
each according his need
without imitation yet. Oh,
yeah?
The rate Of national growth
is to be accelerated. How?
BY destroying individual ini-
tiative. Match.
Only a lower case pro-
fessor Of economics can
stomach that contradiction.
But what gets me, and tell
me If you can, how this
nonsense really sets with
Fauntleroy's Old Man?

How I laughed when 1 sat
down at my TV set and noted
the seraphic expression on
Richard Nixon's face when he
stated. without a flicker of an
eyelash, that he was con-
