Music Master

Some Of the best music in
town these nights is being
made by Bill Snyder and crew
at the Mayflower Hotels Presi-
Dental Room.
Mr.. Snyder plays a solid and
often spectacular double hand
ful of piano. He can make it
sound like an orchestra with
out any help at all. but he
employs some able assistance
anyway from a quartet Of ex-
perts - drummer, guitarist,
bassit and -saxophonist who
doubles on assorted other reed
instruments.
It's a versatile assemblage.
They can play all the varie-
ties of polite dance music ex-
pected by the more sedate eli
ents Of an establishment such
as this and they sound a lot
livelier and less constrained
than most while they are about
it. They also play-and obvi-
ously are happiest when doing
so-a smooth brand of modern
jazz that is melodic enough to
fool the non-jazz addictS and
rhythmic enough to please
even the eft-footed dancers.
It's relaxed music and most
enjoyable listening as Mr.. Sny-
der and company pass a tune
back and forth with various
personal embellishments.
The cornerstone of 1t all, of
course, is the sound of the
Snyder piano and this is much
piano. Chicago-born Mr.. SnyL
der, who started as a child
prodigy and who is still far
from being an ancient prodigy,
has been at the keyboard so
long that this is his second
career.
The first one started when
he was four, saw him through
a long string Of appearances
with symphony orchestras.

Muzzling The Military

CENATOR Strom Thurmond is cauti-
~ Gus in his conduct at the Congress
sional hearing in Washington in which
he charged that speeches of military
leaders have been censored sharply. He
must be careful that the INC earthly
label is not pinned on him. Ultra-liberals
seem to find it not too difficult to smear
effectively those who advocate conser-
vatism and patriotism.
Mccarthy believed that it was neces-
sary to put on good show to awaken
the people, but in so doing he gave the
liberal elements an opportunity to tag
him an extremist. Senator Thurmond
will avoid this pitfall. Senator Stennis,
presiding office at the hearing, an ex-
perienced statesman, is too shrewd to
let the hearing develop into free-for-
all show.
The facts will be clearly revealed and
we hope the truth will reach the people.
This hearing should be constructive

See Virginia First

QOANOKE was host to the General
= Assembly last week end. 1t was a
nice thing to do. Roanoke is considered
the capital of western Virginia and
should have attention from the General
Assembly. There is lot of Virginia
west of Roanoke, and the unfortunate
part of it is that so many feel that Vir-
ginia stops at Roanoke. Some Of the
folks in the extreme west are closer to
the capitals of three or four other states
than they are to Richmond. Any atten-
ton which can offest this false psyche
logy is we'll worth the effort.
Northern Virginia had the Assembly
men as guests two years ago. Possibly it
would be we'll for Southside Virginia to
show the members some extra attention
in the years to come. By that time we
may have some interesting develop
ments to show them. Let's hope so.

GEORGE Romney. of Michigan. met

He is president of American Motors.
company which he pulled out of the
doldrums and forced the big motor COM
panies to add the compact cars to their
production. Popularity of compact cars
has increased remarkably. Just because
Mr.. Romney can produce compact cars
does not mean that he is presidential
timber
For the present Mr.. Romney plans to
be Republican candidate for governor
of Michigan. His position is neither De-
mocratic or Republican, however, he
stated that principles espoused by the
Republicans in Michigan come closer
to his views. Furthermore, we suspect
political facts would swing him to the
Republican side. While Democrats have
won the last seven gubernatorial cleo
tons in Michigan, their margins are
diminishing. The liberal, spending pol
icies of the Democrats have increased
taxes to such an extent that Michigan
is no longer favorable industrial
climate either for capital or labor. Many
industries have moved from Michigan
to the adjoining states to find more
favorable business conditions.
Democrats "the ms, have an estab-
lished organization to which the party
is indebted, while the Republicans, "the
outs" have less obligations. So, if
Romney could be elected his principles
would dominate. Michigan might we'll
be in mood to make some changes
George Romney is uninhibited in his
economic thinking. His position is not
orthodox, but he is enthusiastic and his
thoughts deserve consideration. He is
outspoken on the subject of evils of
power concentrated in big unions, big
industry and big government, and feels
that labor laws should be modernized
to prohibit either employers or en-
ployees from building up tremendous
power blocs.
In his interview Romney stressed
necessity for the people to have great
er interest in government and in labor
and management. States have RESPONSE
bilities more than rights, and the states
should assume their responsibilities, or
else those responsibilities will be usurp-
ed by the federal government. 1t will be
interesting in these times of federal pa
ternalism to watch Mr. Romney's cam
paign in Michigan Just how he pro-
