Sense and Nonsense

Attorney General Kennedy,
speaking at the 175th ami
versary Of the ratification Of
the Constitution in nde.
pendence Hall; described the
civil rights issues Of today as
moral Issues more than legal
ones - land their constitr-
tionality Is q matter Of COM
mon sense"
The matter Of what Is
common sense is q personal
view. What might be con-
sidered common sense by one
man might be nonsense to
another.
Thomas jefferson said, I'm
questions Of power let no
more be heard Of confidence
In man, but bind him down
from mischief by the chains
Of the Constitution. I have
never been able to conceive
how any rational being could
propose happiness to himself
from the exercise Of power
over others. It is the old
practice Of despots to use q
part Of the people to keep
the rest In order"
The Constitution Is q writ
ten document the meaning Of
which does not change with
the passage Of time nor with
changes in public opinion.
The Constitution was written
to place the fundamentals Of
government beyond the con-
troll Of impatient public Off
cials, impatient judges and
impatient legislators.

Try the Good Neighbof Policy

is rather simple in that It
stems from common goals
and ambitions. ranging from
the elimination Of crabgrass
to the restraint Of rough
neck elements in the neigh
borhood. ! have listened to
general expressions voiced by
my colored neighbors. and
they strangely coincide with
my own whereby their mea-
surfing stick Of q man Is pred
icated entirely on his worth
and not on his color. / speak
now Of Woodworking in
dustrious people who are in
tent in their desire to ac-
complish the universal goals
which have been the ambi-
ton Of man since Noah load
ed the Ark. Anti-social, un-
inhibited people Of any color
who are, vindictive in their
case against society only
serve to rock the boat In any
social progression and It is
high time that q measure OF
personal responsibility be
added TO the agitators' brew.
There are millions Of people
who have no desire to affili-
ate with the Ku Klux Khan
or the Black Muslinns, and
their overwhelming weight
must eventually be decisive
In exposing these hate-mon-
gers and their phony diatribes
Of dissension.
I belong only to the rather
loosely organized brotherhood
Of man. and as q eard-carry-
ing member I would like TO
appeal 10 my fellows TO resist
the ballyhoo which sur
rounds them, and live their
lives as the Good Lord In
tended, without subscribing to
those who would shape their
thinking. It's amazing, but I
have q bunch that the hate
mongers would 80 out Of
business.

Clean Plate Brigade

The letter by Mildred L.
Kornreich advocating Q re-
vival of the ''Clean Plate
Brigade" Of 4b years ago
fails to consider certain
changes in circumstances
wrought by time. Two Of
these seem particularly
deserving of mention. rs.
First, there is the matter Of
quantity restaurants allot to
their customers. This writer
having the good (2) fortune to
be- q bachelor consumes most
Of his meals away from home
and ct none Of the places he
dimes Is Il ever necessary to
leave food unbeaten. The por-
lions just aren't large enough
to make that q problem
Moreover, while mentioning
in 1862 on the West Coast, Il

itaJrant operators hi that re-
giUf1 were no more lavish IL.
their treatment Of the public
they presumed to serve. h
Second, there is no pagti-
cular reason why Americans
other than those overly
concerned about their waist
lines-need be grudging about
the amount Of food they de-
YOUR. One might actually say
that to do so is somewhat
less than patriotic. After al,
our farmers won't prosper
unless we partake unstintihg
ly Of the produce they grow.
Even without . modern

are faced with enormous
stockpiles Of wheat and other
staples. purchasers for which

to defray even the Transports

It is true that neither. the
Senator nor Governor has
formally thrown his hat In
the ring for the presidential
nomination. And some Re-
publicans are doubtful that
the New Yorker win now
make the effort In view Of
the immediate reaction to his
remarriage. But be that, as
it may, there are strong evi-
dences that Gov. Rockefeller's
supporters, particularly
among those more liberal Re-
publicans in the big Eastern
States. are unhappy over the
undoubted progress which
Senator Goldwater has made
to the presidential nominal

This Is the story of Q
waspish. fraiI man of &C.
outline features on the deck
Of o Soviet ice breaker In
the Gulf Of Finland. But,
first, q preamble:
Because he does not suffer
fools gladly, Lyman George
Rickoyer, q quiet, gentle man
who likes to spend his leisure
hours listening to music,
reading. or reviewing work
projects, has been, and is. one
Of the really valuable Ameris
cans.
The naval hierarchy does
not like him. There was some
antisemiticism In this dislike,
but most of the opposition to
him has been due to the fact
that he always was impatient
with fol-de-rol, with promo
tons based on seniority
rather than ability. and with
assignment Of officers to
tasks for which they were not
really prepared by knowledge,
skill, or temperament.
LYMAN Rickover also has
a contempt for fast buck
boys, lobbyists, the careless
and apathetic, and the pur-
veyors Of the cheap and the
shabby in life. In q soft SEN
tence or 80 he can take the
hide off q faker and leave
him hurt and angry. By
merely asking such questions
as "Why2" and ''When2" he
often has reduced the ar
rogant to politeness.
Set Up Own Schools
When he discovered that
the high schools OF. the
United, States were not pro-
ducing enough volunteers or
selective service assignees
with adequate knowledge OF
secondary school physics and
chemistry, he set up his own
schools TO train crews for the
atomic submarines. 49,,
It. Is an indictment Of past
Navy commands that action
by the Congress Of the United
States was necessary TO, re-
verse a Navy board which
had passed Up Capt. Rickover
and tagged him for prema-
ture retirement. even though
he was one of the very best
minds In the service. The top
command had refused TO 80
along with building nuclear
submarines, because. It ar
gued, they were neither prac-
tical nor then possible. The
jowls Of several retired adj
mirals still light up like
neon-red at the mention Of
Rickover.
Secretary Of the Navy Fred
Korth happily has announced
that when the admiral
reaches retirement age next
winter, he win be recalled 70

Nuclear Division Of the Bu-
reau Of ships.

IN ulS ISCSuC speech III
West Berlin. President Ken
nedy made an interesting
statement. In reply to those
in the world who say that
communism is the wave Of
the FUTURE he said, lass sic

them come to Berlin.
Many prominent Amer
leans have urged that West
Berlin be used as q show
place for the free, capitalists
way Of life. In Berlin we have
q unique opportunity to show
the world the real differences
between Eastern and. West
ern ways Of living.
It is often difficult to de-
bate ideologies, East and
West-it should be simpler
and more compelling to apply
the seeing Is believing"
theory-4''let them come to
Berlin. =
President Kennedy would
do well to follow UP his
statement by supporting tours
Of East and West Berlin by
Asian and African student
ana government leaders. This
should only be q first step In
making West Berlin .

Berlin's sorry Communist
plight.

Americans against the "risk"
of trying to free Cuba from

men might lose their lives,
how we might find ourselves
