In an effort to find the right an swer, let's pour the acid of his tory on Senator Goldwater's state ment. The great liberals 'using the small "1") were moved by the fear of too much power in too few hands. Many instances could be cited. Let's cite only one Si mon de Montfort. Who was Simon de Montfort? He was born in France, a son of the Earl of Leicester. He was forced by political events to leave France in 1230, and went to Eng land. He soon tound favor with Henry III, who secretly married him to his sister, Eleanor, in 1238. Two years later, he took the cru sader's voiv and went to the Holy Land. When he returned to England, the king gave him command of an English force fighting in France. But he quarreled with Henry and was dismissed from the king's service. When he returned to England, he found the barons, knights and town leaders restless under the heavy hand of King Henry. He soon became their leader in pro testing the king's harsh demands. He was one of 24 commissioners who drew up the famous Provi-! sions of Oxford. The king was forced to sign the historic document, but four years later he refused to recog nize it. The barons, with de Mont fort in command, took up arms against the king, who was de feated and captured at the battle of Lewes. A new government was set up under which de Montfort i became the real ruier of England. He CALLED A PARLIAMENT made up of two knights from each shire (county and hvo burghers from eaclrfiorijtgt;.' The Earl of Gloucester soon quarreled with de Montfort and made war on him. Gloucester's army and Prince Edward (Hen ry's eldest son I attacked de Montfort's forces at Evesham. De Montfort's men were greatly out numbered. De Montfort fought to the field of battle. But- His convictions lived. His parliament of 1265 is usual ly called the basis of the modern English Parliament. He is usual ly spoken of by the historians as the creator of the English House of Commons which was the be ginning of RULE BY THE MANY as contrasted with the aneient idea of RULE BY THE FEW. All of which is to say: Simon de Montfort believed that TOO MUCH POWER IN TOO FEW HANDS is bad business. So he fought and DIED in de fense of his theory that supreme power should reside in the hands of the MANY that is to say, in a PARLIAMENT rather than in the hands of a few which in Si mon de Montfort's day was called a parliament and in our day is called the Congress. That is why, in his day, Simon de Montfort was called the Great Liberal. In these days, he would be called a conservative.

Ochiho Pleads Manslaughter At 12:11 p.m. Friday, Mrs, Zelma Ochiho pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of man slaughter In the Circuit Court of Judge Donald Piper. Through her attorney. Mrs. Ochiho indicated a desire to change her plea on the first degree murder charge and plead guiity to a lesser charge. The state accepted the lesser plea and Judge Piper has not yet set a date for sentencing on the piea. The question of second degree murder or manslaughter result ed 'in a hung jury in the case of Zelma Ochiho charged with the Bomb Test Ban Gets Approval LONDON (UP1) U.S. presi dential envoy W. Avereil Harri man and British government leaders agreed today to press for a nuclear test ban with no strings attached at the three-power nu clear test ban negotiations in Moscow next week, diplomatic sources said. The U.S. and British diplomats laid down a joint Anglo-American strategy for the Moscow nuclear conference in a series of consul tations here with lop advisers. Harriman, who arrived in Lon don Thursday night from New York, conferred with Lord HaU sham. the British minister of sci ence who will iead the British delegation at Moscow. Harriman and Hailsham were joined later by their top political and scientific advisers who will accompany them to Moscow. Tpp Level Meeting Harriman then met with Prime Minister Harold Macmillan at lunch talks at which Lord Hail sham, Defense Minister Peter Thorneycroft, U. S. Ambassador David Bruce and top State De partment advisers also parti cipated. A message from Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, delivered to Macmillan Thursday night by So viet Ambassador Alexander Solda- tov, provided the background for the discussion. Khrushchev's message, British government sources said, set out briefly the latest thinking of the Kremlin leader "on world events in general." It also referred in particular to the forthcoming round of nuclear test ban talks and East-West relations. Caution Against Optimism Authoritative government sources cautioned, however, against any great optimism over the message. They indicated it did not go beyond the outlines of the Soviet leader s East Berlin speech earlier this month. slaying of Mrs. Florence Huitt on March 19, 19S3. The jury of seven women and five men was finally dismissed at 3:30 a.m. Friday bv Circuit Judge Donald Piper after they re ported they were hopelessly dead locked. Unofficial reports indicated that the vote among the jurors was eight for manslaughter and four for second degree murder con viction. In either event, it appeared that the jury did not believe the acci dental shooting story of Mrs. Ochiho, but neither did they be lieve that she had committed the killing with premeditated malice necessary to sustain a first de gree murder conviction. About 10: 15 p.m. Thursday, the jury asked Judge Piper for fur ther instructions on manslaugh ter, and then returned to the jury room where they conferred until they were dismissed at 3:30 a.m. after reporting they could not agree on a verdict. It was reported also that the jury apparently was split 8-4 al most from the beginning of de liberation. !n March of this year, Mrs. Ochiho was freed from a charge of having shot Bruce Miller when the jury agreed 10 to 2 that it was self-defense. Florence Huitt, the victim of the most recent shooting inci dent, was a witness against Mrs. Ochiho in the first trial. No date lias been set for a new trial. Russian Spy In Britain LONDON (UP1) A Russian spy of major importance has de fected to the West and is now hiding in Britain under heavy guard, the government said today. The identity and whereabouts of the defector are betng kept secret to protect him from Communist agents who may want to kill him. He is understood to have re vealed a mass of information about other Soviet spies and the workings of the Kremlin's vast espionage network. The government, which has been plagued itself by its own se curity leaks, confirmed reports Thursday that the Russian first defected to the Americans and then was brought to Britain at his request after being questioned in the United States. A government spokesman said the spy was interrogated for weeks by the U.S. Central Intelli gence Agency (CIA) until it was convinced he was not planted by Moscow and told all he knew. British military intelligence questioned the Russian after he was moved to this country, and are continuing to question him in hiding.

Authoritative sources said Pres ident Kennedy had not decided on what legislation to seek from Congress if there is no agree ment by July 22, when he has promised to submit his recommen dations. Administration officials believe chances are slight that the four year -old controversy over the rail roads' proposed work rule changes will be settled without legislation. But thev said a six-man panel named by the President to investi gate the dispute might help to shape the issues for Congress and the public. Tiie committee's report to the President also might tend to put pressure on both sides to change their position before the document is sent to Congress, the officials said. Meet Second Time The special fact-finding commit tee was scheduled to meet for the second time today and con tinue preparations for making its report. A labor spokesman said tliat AKUCIO president George Mcany, a member of the presidential pan el, would try to sec if there w as any chance tie could settle the dis pute and avoid emergency con gressional action. Meany's mediation role became known as Republican leaders served notice that Congress would not be "stampeded" into action to prevent ttriks when tti tem porary truce ends July 29, An AFL-CIO spokesman said Meany was unhappy at the pros pect of a strike, special legisla tion to deal with a walkout, or the loss of jobs the railway unions face if new work rules go into effect. On ills Own The spokesman said Meany's mediation efforts would be con- ducted outside the presidential committee. Meany was said to be lieve the panel must serve pure ly as a fact-finding agency for the President, not as a negotiation team.
