The Republicans Can Have


An interesting study in how you can make
statistics strange and irrelevant purposes is
found in recent newspaper column by Roscoe
Drummond.
Mr.. Drummond has looked at the votes for
Congress and discovered that while the Republicans
collected 4s per cent of the Congressional vote they
elected only 40 per cent Of the House Of Representa-
tives and he calls this "the scandal Of the 1862
elections.
But he should have looked a little more closely
at his figures. Outside of California and Con-
necticut (48 and 46 per of the VOTE "a and IT
per cent of the successful candidates) all of the
states he cites are in the south border regions
where the one party system has operated for years
to produce Representatives who organize in the
House as Democrats and vote with the Republicans
Many southerners vote Republican, but in the past
their votes have been showed under.
This has been the real scandal The interesting
and vital point which Drummond overlooked is that
this system is breaking up, and the South is moving
toward a system where the voters will have some
political choice. Most enlightened Democrats would
gladly give the Republicans their fair share of the
kind of politicians the South has been sending to
Congress, under either the Republican the Demo-
cratic label. Indeed they welcome the breakup of
the party system in the south that has operated
part of the system of repression and vote-denial
for the purpose of preserving political reaction.
1t is naive, to say the least, for any observer Of
the American to see in this system now break
ing up anything more than what it is, to apply
the resulting statistics to the entire country in sup
port of the theory of political imbaance that does
not exist

Editor: l am glad to receive my
copy of the paper in the mail on
Thursday. Now can compare the
relative coverage of other local
publications with the excellent job
your staff continues to do.
I hope you told President John
Kennedy when you saw him this
week how much the average Negro
appreciates the great strides the
Negro federal worker in particular
is being allowed to make since he
entered the White House. I do not
know what my family and myself

return to the University of Missis-
sippi ought to be as welcome to
that institution as it undoubtedly
is to the Federal Government,
which has invested so much in the
Meredith case as a symbol of inte-
grafton. It is true that much Of
that investment would have seemed
wasted, had not the student re-
lost more. It would have lost its
reputation. The appalling harass-
ment that Mr.. Meredith has suf-
fered might have explained any
decision to quit, but it would not
have explained the state universi-
tvs inability to live up to the
universal ideals Of higher educa-
ton which a university is sup

IT PAINFUL TO DEFEND
TAX COMMITTEE PROPOSALS

Editor: I was most interested to
read Governor Andersen's letter in
your paper on the recommended
tions of his tax study committee.
From the tenor of it, I suspect
that he finds it as painful to de-
fend the committee as I do to read
his defense, because Governor An
dersen is an honorable and sincere
man.,
His apology, that the committee
has proposed to relieve the small
wage Garner of the head tax of $40
as an offsetting advantage to levy

water. 1 agree that the head tax

went on to add that the Pacific is
now a us. lake; the Atlantic is
undisputed us. British territory;
the Mediterranean is dominated by
Anglo American fleets; and the In
dian Ocean is to be held firmly in
British hands, even after India is

also the sole possessor of nuclear

indeed.

pecially seriously challenges the
role of the United States as world

icism of England as a world power
and the efforts on the part Of the
United States to force Canada to
accept nuclear weapons that the
United States would control are
attempts to regain this dominant
role.
Americ an economic interests

constant danger to many other
Latin American countries. Our re-
action to Cuba is not met with
wholehearted approval by our al
lies. Leslie Dewart, Member of the
Department of Philosophy of st.
Michaers College, University of
Toronto in Canada, writes in the
Feb. 9 issue of The Nation:
1T had never been secret that
the Cuban policy of the United
States had not met with the ap-
proval of her NATO allies. Even
Canada, where popular sympathies
most faithfully reflect American
opinion, remained not consulted
(about the United States reaction
to the missile buildup in Cuba;)
and naturally so, for there would
have been no point for consulta-
tions.
mot a single NATO country
backed the blockade; the vague re-
assurances of friendship received
by Washington carefully avoided
any commitment of any sort.
Even the o. A. S. extended its
verbal comfort formulas that fell
short of those requested. For the
first time since the inception of
the cold war, the United States
faced Russia during a major crisis
alone"
It is evident that the United
States is not in the position of
strength it was in Immediately
after World War II. What would
be the best method to recapture
this position of dominance? The
method used by the United States
Is to take advantage of its position
of being the primary nuclear power
in the world.
The United States wishes to
control the defenses of the Western
World by having control of the
nuclear deterrent Of the Western
World. If Europe can be convinced
of the possibility of Russian armies
overrunning Europe at any time,
and the United States controlled
the nuclear deterrent, one can see

DRY POINTS
BY FRED GRAM

Our friends Of the far-gone
Right are trying to make a civil
liberties martyr out of one Of the
organizers of the University of
Mississippi riots. They contend
that since General Walker has
lost all of his bite and most Of his
snarl, he is just a poor, kicked
around nderdog.
Senator Dirksen insists that the
TV "Ev and Charlie" show he does
with Congressman Hallock is do
ing a good job" of faithfully mir
roring the Republican party to the
public. This puts the finger on
what bothers so many Republicans
about the show.
Living standards, predicts a bus
mess forecaster, will be rs per
cent higher by 1875. This, of
course, is barred on the premise
that standards improve as income
rises.

Dear Girl Friday:
In an office where the
traffic Is VERY HEAVY, 1t is
usually cleaned every three
months. Some areas are
at six-month intervals. Other
areas are cleaned once a year
Most office carpeting requires
cleaning at least once a year
The life Of any reasonably
good office carpet can often
be extended several years by
maintenance on a regular
basis. Conversely, If the car
pet cleaning is neglected, the
carpet will become worn and
