He is not only a clislinpiishcd and respected scientist he is one of Hie few men in the top brack ets of today's space ap,c think inp with the common sense and corn-ape In caM a spade a spade. The kudos were earned some lime ago. March 25 lo be ex act, but in tins democratic world ol American freedom Ihat we live in today the public wasn't informed of it unlil some two weeks later because what he said was said behind closed doors at a mod inn last month ol the House Committee on Science and Ast ronaiitics. "Putting a man in space is a stunt." said Dr. Bush, lie lol loped this up by stating thai such a stunt would have little scientific or military value. "A man in space can do no , more than an instrument, in can do less " said the eminent scientisl. who is ciiricnlly the chairman of the governing boardl of Massachusetts Institute of iwnnnogy. I Ho then rolled up his sleeves; and went on lo say that at least some long range projects arc an "absurdity that neglccl basic laws of science." More important in his view is Ihe fad Ihat when space is concerned what this country needs to do is spur the development and production of long range missiles, and in par ticular their range, precision, re liability and protection againsl surprise attack. He sort of wound up by say ing that "Ihe days when men will be in space for long periods of time and for varied purposes are so far off that we need not hurry. . . ." Hooray for Dr. Bush. Here for the first lime in many moons is o man speaking com mon sense and without fear of reprisals. Anyone who will sit down and take a considered look at Ihc so-called "space program" of the United Slates can come to only one conclusion. Namely Ihat we arc not in a race with Russia or science itself or other planets at all. We are merely faced with Ihc sorry predicament of several "space agencies" all of whom are racing against the time when the gullibility of the American taxpayer will end. When that day arrives, as it must some lime, then these "space experts" are going lo see the end of their plush careers and face Ihe gloomy prospect of returning lo Iheir lormer posi tions as janitors, creators of wom en's fashions, fiction writers and donkey engineers who bridged Ihe gap between unemployment and "space" at Ihe cxjicnsc of Ihc taxpayer. 1 can sec no real reason to ex pend millions of dollars in try ing In find a diet for space trav el, discover what difficulties man might face in the way of brush ing his teeth twenty million miles out or starting to assemble a timetable for travel in the year 31X10.

The Mircoss or failure of a number of commodities can many times be Iraced directly to a good slogan or a lack of il. America has become slogan conscious. Slogans fit our liunicd - up. slam-bang, get up and go type ol living. THE ARRIVAL of another poli tical campaign will bring forth a new flood ol slogans. In a long list of candidates whose names arc mostly unfami liar, a good catchy slogan olten timcs may net a good many bal lots. Not that people vote care lessly, hut faced with an alter native of choosing Irom largely! an unfamiliar lot. the voter will look for something else thai might help him make up h I s mind. It may be a name that has a familiar ring, but lacking that, a slogan Ihat 1 its his conception of the roan for the job. THE WORD "SLOGAN" comes Ifrom "sluaRh" meaning "army," land "gairm" or call, according lo World Book Encyclopedia. As early as 1840 the slogan be came a vilal part of Ihr political scene. Then, one political party promised "Two Dollars a Daj and Roast Reef." Another slogan was "Van. Van i Marl in Van Buren' is a Used up Man." and instead went, for "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too," electing William Henry Harrison and John Tyler. In 1864 Linco it's campaign re- vnlinrl nrnimrl Mm clnn-in ' '1 If.ni 1 Swap Horses in the middle of,"1''' the stream."

And so the slogans went, some- itimrs successfully and sometimes not so successfully. I I HAVEN'T YET SEEN the Republican ballot, but glancing over the Democrat nallol, oneiuisiory. uoiinung noarns musi Imds a camiit of slogans. One candidate pledges "Action not slogans." Another pledges "More forilhc Hundreds before they ever peace and less lor slaughter."

I wasn't kicked by a horse. but I'm for Morse." Someday, some candidate will be overly honest and adopt the slogan. "Elect mc 1 need Ihc job."

STANTON 'ifosebuig News-Review Tins ve;il- s primary election selection of convention delegates1 ,mw,.,.i,. Voters of holh parlies will be presented with a "bed sheet" bal lot. Voters will be faced with the choice of electing delegates Ironi lists bearing scores of names, many of them totally unfamiliar. They doubtless will be so disgust ed they will demand a change. This same situation will be ex licnicly costly lo taxpayers. The job of counting votes un- (loiiblcilly will lie t lie worst in make out tally sheets and tabu lale voles cast lor delegates and 1comnulll;emHi. numbering into Rd down lo the actual candi- oa rs.

Maybe he can'l give such inslruc- lons. Perhaps the law won t per mit it. But, if he can't, residents ol Ihe stale should he prepared lo wait several days, 1 expect. before the nomination of candi dates is mode known. Voices of the Democratic Par ly in Douglas County, for exam ple, will be handed a ballot tli.it is exiicctcd to measure exactly 3(i inches in length. The Republican ballot won't he lar behind in size. In many counties Ihe ballots arc even larger. Neither party lacks for enter prising people who would like to atlend Ihe national convention as delegates. Eighty nine Democrats arc seek ing the post of delegate-at-lai-ge. Out of these 8!l persons, 21 will be chosen. The situation in the congres sional district is a liltlc belter. Seven candidates are in the race with two to he elected. But the Republicans have lillle reason lo laugh. Thirty eight Re publicans seek 10 jobs as dele gato-al-lai-Re, while live are con testing for two openings as dis tricl delegates. This lask ol electing convention delegates is. il seems lo me. foolish demand on voters and. I more, particularly on taxpayers. Those candidacies add many tons of paper to the cost of print ing ballots and you can lake! t from me that paper costs mon many long. cxicusivc hours.

Before the next primary elec tion rolls around, we should have some provision whereby the re spective parties would choose their own delegations without re porting lo such a tremendous waste of time, effort and money as is involved this year.

"There was a time when Easter was a di-0-.s-up must for every body but that is not true now," said James O'Brien, vice presi dent of Carson Pirie Scott & Co. of Chicago. "The idea now is 'dress up the kids.' " "Women and children are get ting the most from Ihe Easter spending dollar," said a Colum bus, Ohio, store executive.
