In the American tradition we are not given to recognition of
titles of nobility. (See Section 9 of A rticle I of the Constitut­

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-

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

icanism under the guise of protecting a species of free speech
whose end is anarchy. Thank goodness, he was not the last.

open secret that certain measures simply cannot be brought up
for congressional action before the election because expected or
possible adverse action on those measures would no deubt turn
votes against Creat Society candidates. 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. So legislation against rioting and subversive peace­
breaking w ill have to wait until the voting is done.
