Clyde Doyle, a Democrat.
Mr.. Clawson polled 33,086

other Democrats and two other

November's general election,
Mr.. Doyle defeated Mr.. Clawson
by a margin Of more than three

Senate Chains and Cool Politics

others have before him that
this tactic, though it would
be relaxing if attainable, can
hardly be realized.
Spokesman for northern
California are particularly
outspoken against it. Gov.
Brown is asserting himself in
various ways which express
his view better than words
could.
The Presidents civil rights
aces are the strong steps he
and brother Robert, the At
torney General, have taken
executively. He has waited
two years to introduce his
new legislation which has
many merits. 1t gives moral
leadership to the cause. 1t
shores up and extends exist
ing law in important areas.
1t still falls short of the 1860
Democratic platform.
Outside the South, ample
ground is afforded Democrats
to run on the Presidents
policy. AS the administration
so often does, they will prob
ably argue that this is the
best they can do, given the
congressional system.

False Ideas of Common Market

"De Gaulle's attitude APP
pears to be the following:
The British would like to join
the club of six nations. They
are welcome at any time pro-
vided they recognize the rules
and bylaws of the club as
everyone must who joins a
club. In practice, however, the
British seek approval of a
long list of exceptions and
special privileges. This De-
Gaulle rejects"
What his speech en-
phasizes is that there is more
to the recent failure of the
British to be accepted IN the
European Common Market
than meets the eye. The
whole problem isn't going to
be solved in a few weeks or
months or perhaps even years.
Nor are the American people
going to understand it until
they discover that protective
tariffs and quotas imposed
by the Common Market in
Europe are already diminish
ing the flow of certain Amer
lean agricultural and other
products into European mar
kets.
This very week, Walter
Hallstein, president of the
European Common Market
Organization, conferred here
with President Kennedy, Sec
rotary of State Rusk, Secre-
tary Of Agriculture Freeman
and other officials about pro-
tests from this country con-
corning Common Market
tariffs. The United Press In
ternational report on these
conferences said:
"In the past few years the
United States has developed
a multi-million-dollar poul-
try business in West Germany
alone. But since last July
when a 1875 cents per pound
tariff was slapped on United
States poultry, that profit
able trade has just about
dried up"
Incidentally, in the televi-
sion show on Sunday night it
was not emphasized that
much of the industrial prog
ress in Europe would never
have been possible without
funds supplied by the Amer
lean taxpayer and the bill
lions invested by American
companies in overseas plants
and factories. There's a lot
behind the phrase Common
Market that needs telling.

Germ may be that the exam

that while London and Paris
are political capitals within
a natural city, Washington is
an unnatural city within a
political capital. Its art will
always have to cross the Po-
tomac or the Anacostia,
since Washington itself is al
most barren Of first-line art
lists in any field, as it is
almost barren Of first-line

zine publisher who hired an
editor for the religious page
with firm instructions that
he was to treat religion not
only as part of the passing
parade, but as a damn
good thing"
1t is apparent that in the
United States art has be-
come a damn good thing. In
the last is years or so the
number of symphony orches-
tras has grown to LOO, OPP
cratic groups to 500, theatre

has increased by more than

has risen from the general

there is no certainty that it
