AN EDITORIAL

1t is no more, after five days. with shock or
disbelief, but With a deep sense OF sadness, that
we think upon the assassination OF our Presi-
dent Of these great United States. There is an
emptiness as though the axle had been ripped
from the hub OF me great wheel Of unity.
Unity is not a word with which President
Kennedy has been associated in the South these
past three years, bur it is the symbol OF our ma
ZION and the grourds on which our government
stands out above all others. Though we disa-
greed sharply on many Of his policies, there can
be nothing short OF respect tor this man who
gave SO much OF himself to what he sincerely
believed to be the rignr path through which to
lead our country.
All true Americans share in the grief OF his
family, the nation and the world at this time Of
sorrow created through the warped thinking of
a hate-crazed maniac.
This is not a time for judging or hastily pIac-
ing a blame, as so many mere mortaIs have al
ready taken upon themselves to do, rather a
time for mourning. AS David Lawrence so aptly
put it, 1t i'll benooves anyone to attribute a
motivation tor such crimes as that in Dallas to
any group or faction or political party in this or
any other country. For each Of the four assassi-
nations of American presidents was the deed Of
a deranged man With a particular grievance Of
his own, his disordered mind bent on ven-
gance.'
If consolation there be, it lies within the
framework OF our government, SO arranged by
our forefathers to give US uninterrupted conn.,
petent leadership in such times of disaster.
New President Lyndon Johnson seems to have
a firm grip on the reigns Of our nation even at
this early hour.

Oswald. 24-vear-oId Marine Germs reject and --~-c.st-
70 Marxist. Dallas Homocide Chief, Captain Will Fritz,
one Of the most respected police officers in Texas, had
said Of the case against Oswald, 1.-The case is cinched.
The man killed President Kennedy. We are convinced
without any doubt he did the killing
The case was expected to go to a grand jury Wed
nesday, Nov. II, or Monday, Dec. z. Jack Ruby, 52-year
old bachelor, owner Of a downtown Dallas strip tease
joint, saw to it that Oswald never met that appointment.
At IL 20 Sunday, during what seemed to be a routine
ji' transfer, Ruby stepped from the ranks of some 200
onIookers and sent a single 38-ealiber pistol bullet into
0swaIt's left side. A cheer went up from some Of the
spectators as the seIf-styIed Communist, Oswald, erump-
led unconscious at Ruby's feet, encireIed by his police
escort.
Ruby, a reported ardent adnnirer Of Kennedy, was
charged with murder. Why did he do it? Ruby's sister
said he told her he shot Oswald because, Il couldn't
help it,"
oswaIts untimeIy death possibly left the world with
an enduring mystery whether he really killed Ken
needy, and if SO, why. Despite intensive questioning and
authorities insistence that they had evidence to send
Oswald to the electric chair, he never wavered in his
first claim that he was not Kennedy's killer.
The body Of John Fitzgerald Kennedy was returned
to the White House on Saturday where friends and as
soeiates and men high in government came to honor
him. Lyndon Johnson put in his first full day as new
president Of the nation. Plans for the funeral began to
unfold.
