Silly Season

We have watched with great deal of interest
the efforts to put respectable and intellectual base
under the position of the Diecrats regarding civil
rights. This is small endeavor. And it would be
a good trick if it could be brought to pass.
One of the most dilgent of the pro-Di1decrat
crew is newspaper columnist named William s.
White, whose writings appear in the Minneapolis
Tribune, who makes up in persistence what he
lacks in wit about this thing According to White
the villains of the piece the liberals (He hardly
ever uses the term without putting quotation marks
around it, prefacing it with derisive description
such professional liberals. He Is one Of that
stripe Of writer to whom liberalism is repulsive
that it cannot be admitted authentic political
position) We were glad when he disappeared from
Harpers Magazine.
Recently White has been writing about the fill
ibuster in the US Senate. The filibuster is a bad
thing he thinks, 1t Is used to uphold the liberal
position on space communcation-the position that
this is too important and too involved with the
rights of other nations to be turned to private
corporation To him, the fight is IAN effort by the
liberals to force government ownership of the space
communications system and freeze-out of private
industry capital" At the time the above was writ
ten, of course the government did own space COM
munications, at a cost of fabulous investment In
research and experiment This issue before Congress
was no freeze-out Of private capital but effort
probably successful by now-to give a piece of
space communications away to private interests.
White seems to think the resort to unlimited
debate on an issue of this magnitude is improper
and immoral 1t raises "a serious question as to
whether they (that Is the liberals) have not read
themselves out Of the Democratic party" But when
unlimited Senate debate is used by the DiSdecrats
things are different. And what do the Dixiecrats
use unlimited debate for? White does not admit it is
to block civil rights legislation. The Senate Liberals
have, Of course supported rule making It easier
to limit debate In order to get vote a contested
bill. They even proposed rule that would make 1t
easier to limit debate the tel-star space COM
munication issue. But to read White you'd never
guess what the issue Is Limiting Of debate Is
"cloture" in the Te-star debate It's gag" In the
contest with Dtdecrats over civil rights "Cloture"
Is applied against this small band of flibusterers"
The gag Is applied Ito people the liberals do not
like.
And finally, according to White, there is no
need for rules change anyhow. when any bill Is
good bill 1t can always prevail, filibuster
nlbuster" Says White: what has long thwarted
liberal designs Is not that the rules are wrong but
rather that liberals usually wrong-wrong be-
cause they extremist and intolerant."
So now you have It, Civil rights legislation Is
extremist and intolerant" The liberals are the bad
guys. The Disiecrats the good guys and William
s. White is welcome to be their prophet
