. EDITORIAL -

cumbent Elmer l.. Andersen, lib
eral Republican, or Karl ROlvaag
DFL. Both are sound advocates OF
basic civil rights. AS State Senator
and Governor, Andersen has hac
greater opportunity to demon.
strate his sincerity. His position
is courageous, unequivocable and
he does not shirk his duty in the
interest of working for full equali-
ty for all citizens.
The same thing can be said for
Karl ROlvaag, DFL candidate for
Governor, who at each opportunity
in his private and public career has
demonstrated his great interest in,
and dedication to human rights.
On this single issue, the most
important in any election to most
readers of this paper, the compar-
able views, and known positions
of each of these men on the civil
rights issue makes it necessary In
all fairness for this newspaper tc
urge readers to make their OWL
choice between Andersen and Rol.
vaag.

Vote for Walter f. MOndaIe
DFL whose record and vigorous
administration Of his office ,hai
given great prestige and statur,
to the position.
His opponent Robert Kunzig, 1
comparative newcomer to the statC
has found it difficult to find any
real issues with which to contenC
with Mondale for the office. At

Republican Walter Judd's recorc
over the long period he has beer
in the Congress does not recon-
mend him for reelection. 1t has only
