The News Is Better
W. A. Leavell, in a column appearing in the Grifton (North
Carolina) Times says that since there didn’t seem to be much
good news for the 1970s, he would go back in time to find
some good news to report. And so back he went, to the 1870s;
and this is what he found to report for the news of the day
On the crime front, "the 1870’s have a law and order pro
blem. No fooling. The crime rate is about twice what it is
today. People are going around shooting each other and the
Indians are also on the rampage. In the cities traffic clogs the
streets by day and you can hardly get around for the horses
and wagons. The toughs and crooks take over the streets at
night and it is not safe to go out.
"In New York City the Irish are rioting and demanding
their rights. In Savannah the blacks are marching in the streets
and in San Francisco the Chinese are giving the establishment
a hard time.
"The taxpayers of New York found out that Boss Tweed has
taken them for millions. Confidence in our political leaders
is at an all-time low.
“Inside plumbing and sanitation are almost unknown and
public health is nil. Pneumonia and tuberculosis strike down
many, and scarlet fever and diptheria combine with malaria
and typhoid to make long life a slim gamble. No-good young
people are racing around on fast bicycles scaring the day
lights out of horses and older people. They are also taking to
hard drink and many think the young generation will be the
ruination of the country. The drug culture is serious. Poppies
grow in Florida, New Mexico, Texas, Vermont and New Hamp
shire and can’t supply enough opium for the market so we import
sizeable tonnage from China, England and Germany (it wasn't
until 1881 that the import of opium from China was prohi
bited.)”
Sums up Mr. Leavell:
"As far as I can see, things haV'
not gone that far down hill since the 1870’s. . .except for one
thing. In 1872 the total federal budget was $278 million and we
are trying to get our present down to only $250 billion. How is
that for good news??'

Editor, The Journal:
1 am a registered voter wri
ting in regard to the editorial
entitled "Oh Lord, How Long?”
which appeared in the August 2,
1973 edition of the Gate City
Journal.
Being the “idealistic youth"
I am, 1 try to look at both sides
of the gate, though I admit 1
have never had a strong ad
miration for Mr. Nixon. Your
past editorials seem to go along
with the general opinion of the
people in the area, which is
very safe for a small town
newspaper. I sincerely hope this
does not hold true with the
feelings expressed that the
American people "are getting
fed up with the Senate Water
gate investigations.” "Almost
everyone we talked to revealed
an increasing anger,” (Just how
many people did you talk to
Mr. Nedry?),'‘not so much as
the investigation itself, but what
is seen as a blatant, glaring
"double-standard” on the part
of the investigators.” May I
ask what "double-standards?”
If you are talking about the Ells-
berg case, he should have been
punished, but the Honorable
Judge Byrne had to dismiss
the charges on grounds of go
vernment interference (Nixon
offered Byrne the attorney ge
neral seat, BRIBE!)
Also Nixon had his plumbers
(the private police force to
do his dirty work because the
CIA and the FBI wouldn’t any
more,) break into the man’s
psychiatrist. Burglary in this
country is a FELONY! Are the
laws of this land applied only
to the people and not its lea
ders? Is It true what Mr. Gold
water said? That the American
people really don't care about
the morals of their leaders, just
so they lead?
As for your feeble attempt
to discredit Senator Ervin, I
believe Nixon's henchmen have
already tried to dig up "dirt”
in North Carolina with no suc
cess because the Republicans
like the man. If the Senator
was "out to get Nixon” as
was stated, he would have al-
lowed Senator Inouye to con-
tinue
questioning Hal deman
about the 1962 California In-
cident where Nixon, Haldeman,
and Ehrlichman were convicted
of unfair campaigne practices.
This conviction after the 1962
Gubernatorial Election in Cali
fornia is only one of the things
that have tainted the president’s
political career.
The most ironic part is the
following? "What of the other
side of the coin? Remember
when anti-war demonstrators
broke into draft board offices
and public buildings, poured
blood on files,” etc. etc. etc..
True such action will never be
justified no matter what the
casue, but why where is the
irony? Unfortunately Nixon’s
people, John Dean and H.R. Hal
deman hired activists to cause
disruptions and riots against
Nixon and the Rev. Billy Graham
in an effort to discredit the op
position. This was all brought
out by both Dean and Halde
man in two memoranda submit
ted to the committee.
Apparently the only recent
reading the Journal editor has
done are the politically biased
releases from the Republican
National Committee or is it
still the Committee to Re-elect
the President, aptly known as
CREEP). I would like to sug
gest the editor read ”1984”
by Orwell to obtain a horrify
ing glimpse of what the tac
tics of some of his party (and
possibly to some extent the op
position politician, or should
! say "enemy.”) have in store
for EVERY citizen in this coun
try.
