Byrd Lost Control
The Byrd organization has
lost control of the Governors
mansion since the last State
election four years ago. Both
Gov. Almond, who is ineligible
to succeed himself, and 1t. Gov.
Stephens, parted with the
organization when they turned
away from a massive resist
ance" policy that called for
automatic closing of public
schools. They had been elected
four years ago, however, with
Senator Byrd's support. -,
Widespread reports of ticket
splitting, If carried through in
the final results, could produce
arguments either way as to
which faction actually won.
Greater concern is being ex-
pressed by the organization
over chances Of their candidate,
Mr.. Goodwin, against Mr..
Boothe. ..
These two represent diamet-
rically opposite views on most
major issues and present voters
with the clearest-cut choice.
Mr.. Boothe Is identified with
the "moderates" who fought
massive resistance, supported
Gov. Almonds freedom = Of
choice substitute proposal for
keeping schools open and voted
for the Governors sales tax
and budget proposals.

man for the conservatives" in

which prevailed outside the

Worth Tuning In

-. It is too bad that relatively few Of
: Washington television owners are equip
: ped to tune in on WETA, the UHF TV
: station operated by the Washington Ed
shcational Television Association. Those
who cannot receive the ultra-high fire.
! Quency broadcaSts Of the new educa-
: tional station are missing some very
5 interesting and instructive programs.
: That, at least, is the consensus of most
I televiewers who have watched the lee
lures, films and demonstrations offered
: by WETA to date.
-, Here as elsewhere, in the words of FEC
: Chairman Minow, educational TV is too
often playing "to an empty house" This
/. is believed to be largely the result OF
s failure Of majority of TV set manu-
! sfacturers to include UHF tuner as
: standard equipment on receivers being
: snaarketed today. In order to receive the

ultra-high frequency programs, there
fore, it is necessary to purchase con-
verter or to have the conventional tuner
altered. In either case there is involved
extra cost which many persons are re-
luctant to pay for a pig in poke"
But it is good bet that If some
Of the skeptics could see one or two of
WETA's Shows-such as the recent SCI
ence film showing how sea animals have
adapted themselves to their environ
ment-they would decide that the in
veStment in a converter or a special
tuning strip was well worth while. We
suggest they consult with someone who
already has learned that the UHF pig
in poke" is worth the money.

Bad Omen

Prince Norodom Sihanouk, Cam
bodia'S chief Of state, is man who has
long since shown that his temperament
is somewhat mercurial and unpredict-
able. So his sudden decision to sever
diplomatic relations with neighboring
Thailand does not come as a complete
or absolute surprise. Nevertheless the
development can hardly be shrugged
off; 1t constitutes bad omen; 1t does
not augur well for the drift of events
in Southeast Asia, which is faced with
the danger of Communist conquest and
engulfment
This danger is thing that has
been repeatedly and eloquently en-
phasized by Sarit Thanarat, Premier of
pro-Western Thailand, which is key
member of the Southeast Asia Treaty
Organization. Indeed, in recent days,
Mr.. Sarit has felt justified even to go
so far as to intimate that Cambodia,
with the acquiescence of Prince Norodom
(whose "neutralism" often seems pro-
Soviet), has been aiding the Communists
by letting them use the country as
base from which to attack not only the
That's, but also such other adjoining
nations as Laos and South Wet Nam.
Prince Norodom, in severing diplo-
matte relations, has acted with
vehemence that seems extreme. Too,
wholly apart from his severance action,
it i'll becomes the prince to issue "a
serious warning to the free world and
the United States" against any move in
support Of Thailand's position-a pre-
sumptuous warning. that has also sug-
gested his readiness to ask the help Of
Soviet armed power in the event of
military clash between his country and
the That's.
This Is an ugly sort of business,
especially as it may bear upon the ever
mounting Red threat to South Wet
Nam. General Taylor, the Presidents
personal military adviser, is now in that
part of the world to carry out special
study. The study will be completed in
the near future, and it could conceivably
result in a finding that would favor
sending American troops to the area.
But that is something that remains to
be seen. Meanwhile, in view of Cam
bodia's harsh action, one can do little
more than keep ones fingers crossed
and hope for the best.
