The victims were David Carr

After a happy Christmas to-
gether, the Carrs had come here
today to visit relatives. Arthur
Carr, a brother, suggested a
drive over the frozen lake af-
ter lunch before the visitors
returned home. Ice fishermen
had been driving on the ice
for weeks without miShap.
Arthur drove the car less

SALT LAKE CITY.-The

the resurgent right wing
must build a new set of
heroes to carry it's banner in
Congress.
Democrats in Utah have
been waiting for a chance to
settle scores with Senator
Wallace F. Bennett ever since
he defeated the respected
Senator Ebert Thomas in a
1850 campaign in which all
the techniques of Mccarthy
ism, then in vogue, were uti-
liZed. They believe they now
have a candidate who can
do it.
He is Representative David
S. King. 43, of Salt Lake
City, who is serving his sec
ond term in the House. Both
he and Bennett are already
combing the State in an eff
fort to pull their respective
party organizations together,
and their political differences
are sufficiently real to lend a
spark of drama to the con-
test.

survivors of the Jenner-Mc-
Carthy bloc. and a former
president of the National As

Foreign ships travelling from
American ports may not meet
American safety standards, but
there is nothing this Govern
ment can do about it if they
are protected by an interna-
tional treaty, a Coast Guard
spokesman said today.
The question arose in con-
nection with the Coast Guard
action in forbidding American
passengers to sail on the Mexi-
can liner Acapulco. The Coast
Guard spokesman said the liner
had the same deficiencies when
it was carrying American pas
sengers as the Liberian liner
Nassau, but Liberia was cov-
cred by a 1948 treaty and Mex
leo is not.
But once Mexico officially rat
ifies the treaty, he added, the

that it should be so frankly

to believe that the postpone
ment Of the order was not
prompted by any such mo-
tive. but Stemmed possibly
from the fear by some of
the building and construc-

could slow up recovery in that
field of the economy.
Material considerations are
often more persuasive than
adherence to principle or
conviction when controver-
sial questions are up for set
tlement in the inner pre-
cincts of Government. But
it is surprising to find high
officials hesitant to issue an
order on the subject of racial
discrimination when such ar
dent support has been given
in recent months by the ad-
ministration to the civil
rights" agitatorS. Maybe
there will soon be a group
of Freedom Riders" in front
of the White House to help
get this executive order off
the shelf.

year Of congressional elec-

mediately afterward. 1t GER
tainly doesn't reflect much
confidence in the common
sense or perspicacity of
Southern congressman to
assume that they will gladly
go along with the Presi-

assumption that Federally as

Acapulco can carry American

no safer than it is now.
The liner had to sail empty
from New York over the week
end because the Coast Guard
refused to grant safety clear
ance to the vessel. More than
400 American passengers had to

He urged the State to partici-
pate in victory rather than
stand on the sidelines and
criticize. His argum e n t
seemed to appeal to his emf
nently practical fellow-citi-
zenS.
1t is true that Moss got
an assist from the irrepres-
Sible extremist, j. Bracken
Lee, now Mayor of Salt Lake
City, but so may King. In
1858 1t appeared that Lee was
running neck and neck with
Watkins and Moss; he now
thinks he is in a strategic
position to try again. He may
be further encouraged by the
attention being paid to right
wingerS.
A Lee candidacy would
draw undetermined strength
from both Bennett and King.
But it could be that he has
been around too long; many
members of Congress of his
age group and opinions are
quietly bowling out of politics.
The White House is Civ

longing Republican incum-

DAVID LAWRENCE

Orators for decades have
been extolling principles"
and honest convictions" but
certain news dispatches out
of Washington recently give
an impression that there are
no such things nowadays.
"Expediency" and what are
termed practical considera-
tions" seem to be a control
ling influence in making gov
ernmental policy.
Thus, the United Press In
ternational. in a dispatch a
few days ago from Washing
ton, said:
IAN order by President
Kennedy prohibiting racial
and religious discrimination
in Federally assisted housing
has been shelved for the time
being, it was learned yester-
day.
1T will not be issued until
after the 1862 congressional
session and possibly not un-
til after the November elec-
tions, highly placed admins
tration sources said. Chief
reason the President is post
poning the order is that it
would antagonize Southern
Democrats in Congress whose
votes he sorely needs in the
coming session.
Detection of Southern
Democrats could wipe out the
already tenuous prospects for
passage of tax revision, med
ical care and tariff-cutting
bills. One Capitol Hill OBJ
server explained that with
many Southern Democrats
more conservative than Mr..
Kennedy and reluctant about
his legislative program, his
issuance of an anti-discrimi-
nation executive order would
be Just like waving a red
flag in front of them. The
White House just isn't in a
position to ALLEVIATE
anybody"
This is a tragic emphasis
on elements that sometimes
govern decisions on the So
called political front. 1t
seems incredible that there
should be such reasoning,
and even more incredible
Evening star., 1961-12-27
Political Principle vs.. Expediency

discussed has no specific
authorization in law. but 1t
is based on the broad theory
that the Federal Government
can withhold support from
any building operation for
which 1t would normally
spend or lend money If there
is any racial or religious
discrimination involved. The
Federal authority is being in
terpreted to mean also that
Federal commitments to
guarantee mortgages can be
Cancelled if a builder in a
new development refuses to
accept the bid Of a Negro
to buy a house.
The doctrine could be ex-
tended to cover tax exemp-
tions, too, and any private
club which engages in dis
elimination could, under
penalty Of losing its tax priv
ilege, be coerced into OPEN
ing its doors to all candi-
dates. The proposed execu-
tive order, which is confined
largely to new housing, also
could affect indirectly many
private mortgages. The same
UPI dispatch, quoted above,
adds:
Whether the order should
also ban discrimination in
the making of home loans
by Federally regulated banks
and savings and loan aSso-
Citations has not been decided
by the White House. Failure
to resolve that question was
said to be a secondary rea-
son the President has post
poned issuance of the order"
One would think these are
questions for the peoples
representatives in Congress
to decide. and that lawmak-
ing is still a function of the
Senate and the House. But
nowadays an executive Or
der" seems to be synonymous
with decree" or "edict."
Maybe it's because too many
Congressman are also fearful
of political consequences if
they become involved in vot-
ing on such issues, and they
prefer to have the admin
istration act on it's own.

be obsolete.

would ALLEVIATE Southern Con-
gress members whose support
is badly needed for such top
priority legislation as tariff re-
duction. a tax overhaul and
health care for the aged under
social security.
Support Expected
Mr.. Kennedy is expected to
support civil rights bills pend
ing in both houses to prohibit
racial discrimination in en-
ployment, speed up integration
of schools and outlaw poll taxes
in Federal elections.
BY using his authority under
the Reorganization Act to estab-
lish the new Cabinet post, Mr..
Kennedy could bypass a major
obstacle, the House Rules Com
mittee which has the power to
determine what bill goes to the
floor.
Also, this method could as
sure a vote on the measure
without risk of a filibuster. The
burden Of argument would be
on opponents, and delaying a
vote would only defeat their
aim because reorganization
plans become law automaticlly
in so days in the absence of an
adverse vote by either Senate
or House.
This device was used by
former President Eisenhower in
creating the Department of
Health, Education and Welfare.
A reorganization plan for an
urban affairs department
would be almost identical with
legislation left over from the
last session, officials said. It
would wrap up in the new de-
partment the whole group of
housing agencies as well as
those Government Offices con-
cerned with urban transit and
other problems of city dwellers.
