(See Section 9 of A rticle I of the Constitut ion) . B it the Constitution which we love and respect does not Inveigh against the privilege of any individual American who w ill build in his life a princely character and service to his fellow Americans. American history is dotted with rich ex amples of such lives and real Americans are fully justified in feeling a wholesome pride In conferring a title of greatness upon the memory of Lincolns and others whoae lives added immeasur ably to our noble heritage. The death of Fulton Lewis, > . on last Sunday adds another star in our firmam ent of nobility. He loved God and country- he hated every Insidious effort u, undermine American ideals’ and objectives. He spent his unusually competent talents in an unending fight against any of low or high estate who would con temptuously tear down or dilute true Americanism; he feared only his free and w illin g obligation as an American patriot. Persecuted as the defender of those who had gotten in the way of malicious am bition among the popular socialistic giants and intellectuals of our deteriorating national fabric, he en dured the abusive censure, character castigation and economic and damning reprisals of an unconscionable clique of p olitical ly controlled news agencies bent upon the destruction of Amer icanism under the guise of protecting a species of free speech whose end is anarchy. Thank goodness, he was not the last. graceful degree by the organized and liberal news media, whose controlled news policies are licensed and used by the despotism of a bureaucratic government.

And getting those votes balloted for those certain candidates is much more v ita l, for in stance, than saving American boys' lives on the battlefields of V ietn am --o r backing those boys in various other ways, for that matter. The administration believes that a tax rise would halt in fla tion, and inflation is something that hits everybody. So, Mr. Johnson says he believes we can get along without a tax rise un til after the election; taxpayers don't like to vote for candidates who had any part in raising taxes. Unions are a minority, but a strong one. The New York transportation strike first of the year almost got action from Congress--about creating national emergencies. So when this airline machinist strike came along, both democrats and repub licans demanded some action. But, comments U .S . News & World Report, "The President definitely was not interested in a law to be enacted in an election year to lim it strike powers." Negroes are a minority in the United States, but a minority with growing vote power. Congress has Just about made up its mind to do something about the race riots; peaceful marches that always end in violence; Black Power killings and threats of super violence. Most of us doubt that the trouble-m aking Negro leaders have the blessing of more than a small minority of their own number. Nevertheless, Mr. Johnson and his aides are counting heavily on Negro votes in November and don’t want to get on the bad side of Negro leaders three months before the election.
