probably did read Drew Parsons
article in one of the other papers
which print him. His subject was:
The Primary Election IN California.
He went into a lot of detail in ex-
planning how President Nixon's
campaign is being run in California

in Los Angeles, San Diego, San
Francisco. and elsewhere

that the last election was run from

This is all right if you apply the
same reasoning TO voting that you do
when you buy soap or cigarettes.
That is. if you are influenced by your
own knowledge and experience, and

Fight Moths
With Cleaning

1t is always disconcerting to find
moths in wall-to-wall carpeting.
But thee are several ways of fight
ing them.
AS t h e carpeting is already
moth-infested, best method would
be to have it professionally treat
ed and mothproofed.
If possible, the carpeting should
be lifted up and the underside in
spected for eggs, etc; beating and
brushing and airing in the sun
will eliminate them. Dust in
cracks between floorboards "a
breeding place for moths) should
be loosened with a wire and
brushed or picked up with a
vacuum cleaner.
Then. to kill any remaining
eggs, dust DOT, lindane or pyre-
thrum powder into the floor cracks
and around the Dashboard s&1ch
should also be thoroughly cleaned
out. The American Carpet Insti-
tute suggests spraying around the
edges of the carpeting with a mild
infestation of moths, using a
water base insecticide according
to directions.

EDITORIAL.
LET'S ACCEPT
OUR RESPONSIBILITY
LET'S REGISTER AND VOTE


We fret and complain quite a deal
about the fact that members of our
race are not allowed to vote in much
of the Southern States. This is true
We have TO work mighty hard to get
to the polls in much of the South.
However, we have nothing TO stop us
here in Illinois. There are many of
us who are not registered right here
in Champaign Many of us have had
a careless and an unconCerned atti-
tude about voting and have not taken
the time or trouble to register, there
fore We can not vote.
If we claim the right of citizenship
in our city or state we have some
responsibility One of the most i'm
portant of all our responsibilities is
voting If we are atall concerned
about our life, our work or our play,
We have the responsibility of voting
We must understand that our govern
ment is SO built that is run by those
who vote. If we don't like the way
things are going it is our duty to
change our representatives, and if We
do like the way ii is being run it is
also our duty to vote for the party or
men responsible for making and exc
cutting our laws If we fail 10 vote We
are TO be considered as worth little or
nothing to our community. state and
country, and as a matter of fact, ii
would be much better if somebody
else was living in our stead. Let's
consider our opportunity and duty
and get registered and vote in Novem-
Der. Even if you have never voted,
do it this year. Certainly, you will be
much more respected by those who
know you. If you do not know how
TO go about getting registered just 60
to the County Clerk in Urbana. He
will take care of you. Let's get busy.
The time is short.

buying a President or a Congressman.
You can't throw him away--or not
until he's done all the harm he can,
anyway. So when you're deciding
about who 10 vote for this year
remember to look through the publ
city smokescreen at the man behind
it,
One things for sure. we don't get
any LincolnS or RooseveltS OUT of
Madison Avenue.
Never mind the claims Look at
The record. That's what countS-the
only thing that counts when you're
sending a man to defend your inter
eSts and those of your country.
Is he al small man or big man
mentally. l mean Can he stand up
TO the statesman abroad with whom
he will have 10 deal?
Can he keep his temper? Ia primary
requisite for president in these days
in ncessaht provocation)
Has he clear cut policy of his
own TO follow, or is he a rubber
stamp for somebody else's policy?
And il he docs have policy. what IS
it? What do other people think of II?
Is il likely 10 bring us peace and
prosperity. or will il lead to dcprcS
sion and war?
Now that the professional huckStcrs
arc running things every one of us
has got TO think for himself or her
self-bccause you can't trust Madison
Avenue 10 do it for you
Consider the issues. Consider the
man. Talk him over with your vito.
or husband or friends. Get Interested
in politics-they may mean life 0r
death TO you and yours.
This advice is important 10 all of
Us, but il is especially vital to those
of US who form part of the minority
races. Because in the past we have
not-I'll repeat that, have not-put
our brains 10 work on election day.
A fellow comes along. Vote for
me-, he says. "Why?" you ask?
Because | am the best man you can
elect" he replies
Who says so?" You ask.
Why, do" says the man.
Only now it isn't the man talking
its Madison Avenue-the hucksters
the professional ballyhoo artists who
figure every voter for sucker Don't
worry, they're good! They know their
job. They get paid big money for
coming you out of your vote. Well.

5 Presidents
Say Air|ines
AreDoing Well
BY the Associated Press

Five airlines representing a
substantial part of the trunk
line industry teamed up yester-
day in a Joint public declara-
ton that the airlines as q
whole are doing well.
The statement by the presi-
dents of Braniff, Continental
Delta, National and Northwest
Airlines was designed to coun.
ter the arguments of American
and Eastern Airlines that they
should be permitted to merge
because Of the financial dis
tress of the airline industry.
The presidents of the other
five airlines said "the domestic
trunk airline industry is not a
sick industry"
We're fed up with the con-
tinuous refrain being circulated
by Eastern Airlines that our
industry is in a critical finan-
cial condition" they said.
ITO the contrary. the domes-
tic air carrier industry is now
a financially healthy industry
which has successfully met and
overcome the major financial
problems that stem from the
swift propellor-to-jet transport
aircraft transition"
The statement said that 10
of the IL trunk airlines made
money during the three month
period ending September 80,
and that eight of them showed
a profit after taxes for the first
nine months OF the year.
