Kefauver (D-Tenn) told a University of Minnesota convoca tion audience today. The senator said such a change was needed, "if only to keep the nation on an even electoral keel "What I mean," Kefauver aaid in his prepared text, "is that the life expectancy la going up and up, and every year our society con tains a larger number of old people. Consequently, the decisions we make at the polls are coming to reflect a disproportionate weight of Judgment by the aged. .' . "We honor them and venerate them. But who can deny that a person's outlook' at 70 la different than it was at 30? And who will say that the older, vlewrolnt Is beaer than the younger, or vice versa? "ideally, we ahould have a balance of viewpoints. The best and easiest, and I think the only way to strike that balance la to lower the voting age to 18 and give youihs its chance to be heard." Kefauver's talk came between visits to St. Paul and Mlnneanolls industrial plnnls and a luncheon with university faculty membera. He will wind up his four-day Minne sota campaign tour with a public rally at the labor auditorium tonight. The senator, opposing Adlal Ste venson for Democratic delegates in the state's March 30 presidential primary, ended his outstate ap pearances last nicht at Faribault. There he told a Junior Chamber of commerce audience that farm- era' purchasing power la the lowest since 1840 and that it Is affecting business on the nation's rural main streets. Alter spending the night here, Kefauver departs by oommerclal airline tomorrow for Alabama. ; "" it, ii J" -m,!-'! i a nimiMMi I.,. '.'::'','.)", t,JL HERALD AND NEWS CONTRIBUTOR Jefferson D.
