Both the Republicans and Democrats, he said, are a "hodge podge of incompatible economic and social forces" in too many places. "You have Sen. Wayne Morse - one of the finest Republicans in America— and also Sen. Joe Mc Carthy” both in the same party and at opposite poles of political thinking, he pointed out. "And then you have your own Monroe Sweetland a fine Demo crat—and people like Sen. Byrd t ifarry Byrtt; D-Va. >," Reuther added.

Have you ever thought of it that way? . It's the great American Habit, this eager reaching for the paper ... this wanting to know what’s going on— everywhere and without the slightest delay at all.

In .knowing what’s going on lies our capacity for the making of choices, which is the very essence of our individual liberty. It is at this point that our newspaper becomes so important to our way of life. For in its pages are presented the kaleidoscopic changes occurring con stantly—the truth of what’s going on in the world—the facts from which we, as individuals, determine for ourselves how we will vote, whom we will patronize, what we will think, and what we will do. n daily EMERALD
