Heller Vice President Chas E. Holthouse Secretary-Treasurer The 'Phone Call' (The following article was written by Bob Kaser of the Michigan City News-Dispatch, and used recently by the Portland, Ind., Commercial-Review. It reflects a conversation between a rather common “type” of reader and a newspaperman, any newspaperman, in any’city. While it may sound familiar to some readers (very few, we hope) it may prove amusing and informative to the others!) “HELLO?” “Hello — is this the reporter?”; “I’m one of the reporters. May I help you?” “Are you the one who writes that junk about people who get arrested?” “I cover the police station. Is there some question?” “You bet your army boots there’s a question. My boy got'arrested last night by two of those big bullies and I don’t want it in the paper.” “What is your name?” ' "'“None of your business.” * “You’ll have to tell me your name if I'm to know which arrest you are talking about.” ‘ . “I’m Mva, X “OH YES. Your son was picked up for for driving 90 miles an hour in a downtown alley.” “That’s what the cop said. He told me he was only going 50 ” “Well, even 50 is a little fast for an alley, wouldn’t you say?” “What’s the matter? Weren’t you ever young?” “Yes, ma’am. But, believe it or not, I never in my entire reckless youth drove 50 miles an hour in an alley, much less 90 miles an hour.” “Oh, one of those goody-goody kids.” “No ma’am I think I had a fairly typical boyhood. But for one thing. I didn’t get a car until I was 21. And my bicycle just wouldn’t go that fast.” “You’re saying my kid is spoiled because we let him drive the car! You drunken reporters are all alike. I’ve seen plenty of movies.” “I hate to disillusion you, ma’am, but the truth is I don’t drink.” \ t L --L—---“Oh, a holier-than-thou type, huh?” “No. If you’ll pardon the trite expression, some of my best friends are linkers. And since you brought up the subject, I note your boy was also charged with illegal possession of beer.” “I knew it! You’re as bad as those cops. "" Let a kid make one mistake and the whole crummy world is down on him. Listen, if he gets bad pub- . licity he may lose his job. And his father isn’t well— The shock may be too much for him.” “You mean his father doesn’t know?” “Os course, he know§. How could he keep from seeing the dent in the side of the car? I mean, the publicity may be too much for him.” “Didn’t your son think of that before he got the heavy foot?” “You leave my son out of this. You’re a troublemaker, that’s what you are. Just remember. I don’t want this in the paper. I’d hate to sue but I will if I have to.” “I’M SORRY, ma’am, but a serious offense like this has to be reported. That’s policy and there aren’t any exceptions.” “Even if it was your own son?” “Yes, ma’am.” “Hmmph. You’re not only a bum; you are a lousy "father. Just remember, you print this story and. I’ll cancel my subscription. So will my friends. And we’ll never buy another ad.” ._ ,_ u • ■■ ■ ■ — “Yes ma’am. I’m sorry, but there’s nothing I can do.” “When my husband gets hoihe from work, he’s coming down there and punch you in your big nose.” “I thought he was sick.” “You’re the one who’s sick. What this town needs is another newspaper so things like this wouldn't happen.” X. “Yes ma’am. 1 And another police department ' too.” “That’s all the insolence I’m going to take. And don’t bother me again . . . you . . . you communist.” CLICK. Editorial written by Dick Heller

Am I now supposed to return the watch he gave me for my birthday last month? A. Not necessarily. It’s up to you. Q. I’m a high school girl of 17, and have been dating a nice boy for almost a year. Would it be all right for me to give him a shirt and tie for his birthday? A. Well, the shirt I would consider a little too personal—but the tie is permissible these days."

I shall be wearing a semi-formal gown. A. The best man should wear a dark business suit, white shirt, coniervative tie, dark socks, and black shoes. Q.

Spending May Be Issue To Johnson

By LYLE C. WILSON United Press International The erosion of President John- , son’s southern states political ■ base could begin any day now, , and probably will. Political realists were convinced that the late President Kennedy had lost the Souther most of it. That was the basis of the Goldwater for president boom. Goldwater strategists fig- i ured their man could carry the southern states K ®-n---nedy. Hence, he would not need to carry such states as New York, Pennsylvania and other big ones where Kennedy seemed to be invulnerable. Goldwater was the only Republican who seemed to have a real chance to sweep the South. The Goldwater boom went on from there. Now the political realists believe that President Johnson will do much better in the South than Kennedy had been expected to do. Hence, a diminishing of the Goldwater boom. Possible Strategy Chance Perhaps Johnson is sufficiently southern to be weak in such big states as New York and Pennsylvania. If so, Republican strategy might be shifted toward a nominee who would do well in such areas with their big minority racial votes. All of this, of course, is Buys Health Bond USE CHRISTMAS SEALS

merely fancy speculation. But the chips are going down next week as President Johnson addresses himself to Congress. He has said he is committed allout to the enactment of the civil rights legislation inherited from the Kennedy administration. _ President Johnson will not be making southern white friends for himself when he presses Congress to enact civil • rights. It is possible that the South may appear to be less sure for Johnson and more receptive to a Goldwater after the Senate filibuster against civil rights. Many Goldwater strategists insisted that it was not his civil rights position that attracted white southerners to - their man. It was his over-all conservatism, they argued, and especially, his balance-the-budget conservatism in fiscal affairs. If that is, in fact, the situation, then President Johnson's first federal budget which goes .to Congress this month may make some southern Democrats unhappy. , Big Spending Reported Itis generally known that Johnson has revamped the budget. Bits and pieces of the program have leaked, ■ enough to indicate that there will be record breaking —spending in Johnson’s first fiscal year. Moreover, the money saved by the administration in well advertised economies is not to be saved but is to be spent for other projects. Thus, the Johnson budget is

expected to have some attractive items for the voters—services and such that the federal government will provide and which so many of the voters believe come to them for free. President Johnson may hold the line or better on national defense but not on such activities as those of health, education and welfare. Government spending, therefore, may become a hot issue in Johnson’s first year. The hotter it becomes in the South the better will be the chance of a conservative Republican to take those states from the Texan who now occupies the White House. Some erosion of Johnson’s political base probably is inevitable. It could be great enough to change the face of presidential politics.
