Judge Parrish is to be commended for his forthright statement in today’s newspaper concerning the proposed civil rights bill, which one of the candidates of president has tried to make an issue in tomorrow’s election. We feel that it is quite commendable when a man of Judge Parrish’s standing, a judge of our circa# court for 15 years, has taken the initiative, read the civil rights bill, compared it with our Constitution and basic documents, and confirmed that the bill is a good one. This newspaper has not always backed every decision that Judge Parrish has made. But we feel that he has grown considerably in his 15 years on the bench. We feel that his present handling of juvenile offenders, more strict than when he first came on the bench, but with probationary leniency toward those who seem to be contrite, is very good; that his recent ruling on the duty of a trial judge to guarantee both the defendent, and society, a speedy and fair trial is commendable; and that his present stand is one of great merit. There is a great tendency today for people in high office, such as'judge of the circuit court is, to sit back and let charletahs pull the wool over the common citizen’s eyes. This iS' bad. It is bad for our constitutional form of government. It is bad for mocracyjudge Parrish had ever been quick to protect the rights of the individual citizen, and it is especially noteworthy when he points out that this is exactly what the proposed civil rights bill does. This is, of course, not a political question — all 11 Indiana Congressmen voted for the civil rights bill, including seven Republicans and four Democrats. Even E. Ross Adair voted for it! Both of Indiana’s senators will vote for it, when it finally comes to the vote. But many of us ordinary people, with no time to read carefully the entire bill, have been fooled by catchy ads and spot announcements, opposing the bill, accusing it of taking away rights, etc. The judge does a great public service in pointing out the complete fallacy of this argument. We highly commend him for his stand. I This does not mean that we approve of everything the judge has ever done, or will ever do;, we don’t. Mut we do want to give credit where it is due, and Judge Parrish has grown considerably (even 'as we have grown in 15 years) and deserves full credit for a very courageous stand.

Speaking to 2,000 persons at Fisk University in the Tennessee capital. King called for a new * wave of demonstrations to urge passage of a local public accommodations law. An estimated 102 persons were arrested in Nashville demonstrations f last week and many, including seven policemen. were injured. At Memphis, Tenn..

The People’s Voice This column is for the use of our readers who wish to make suggestions for the general good or discuss questions of Interest. No articles will be published without signature of the author. 0 O DAT OF DECISION Editor; Tuesday, May sth, is a day of decision, I believe, for the citizens of the state of Indiana. We have heard the pros and cons from candidates of both parties, and I believe that since neither party has a monopoly on virtue, a vote for eitner party's legitimate candidates is a vote for good representative government. I honestly believe that every citizen should exercise his right to vote, but I am afraid that many will make a mockery of this right Tuesday. I am thinking of those who will either cross over and ask for a "Democrat ballot simply to get at our governor for purely political reasons, and those who are legitimate Democrats who have listened to the most rabid peddler of hate and bigotry since Adolph Hitler, and condone this little dictator’s philosophy of a super race. I honestly believe that Gov. Wallace of Alabama has the same idea in his warped mind that Hitler had. The sad part of all this is: the people who claim to be Christians will be among those who vote for this man. This is the governor of the state that apparently condones bombing of churches and killing little children attending Sunday school. This is the governor of the state that apparently condones the turning of police dogs on human beings, because they were unfortunate enough to be born black. This is the governor of the only state in the Union where the American flag does not fly over its capitol building. . I was actually made sick to my stomach this morning, when I heard on the radio that this king of bigots was to speak at a Baptist church in Fairmont, Indiana, using the house of God to peddle his particular brand of hate. This is what worries me most, those who claim to be followers of the Prince of Peace allowing hatred against their fellow man to flow from the pulpit that should be used to bring to the people the teachings of Jesus Christ, who is this Prince of Peace. There are many and varied reasons given by those who contemplate voting for this rabblerouser, and none of them are legitimate. Those of the Republican party who do not care for a particular candidate and want to .register their protest, can simply pass over the presidential ballot, and not vote for this particular 'office. Those of the Democrat party, ■who like many Republicans want to register their protest of the state sales tax, can likewise pass on this particular ballot. I honestly believe that this tax is the offspring of neither party, but belongs to both. Lt. Governor Ristine cast the deciding vote that passed this law. then after a judge in Marion county found this law unconstitutional. Gov. Welsh hired an attorney to prove it constitutional, so I believe both parties are equally responsible for this tax. I don’t believe we should condone bigotry and hatred to protest either this tax or state and national policies. If we want to do any protesting, Jet’s do it the American way, either vote for those representatives who were against this tax, or let’s not vote at all for a presidential candidate. In closing I want to say that I have faith in the people of Indiana, that they will cast their vote the American way. Let’s not let the hatemongers sway us Tuesday. By the way, I am a decon in the local First Baptist church, and know that Wallace and his brand would not be allowed to peddle their hate from our pulpit. Sincerely, Lase Grimm, R. R. 2, Decatur, Indiana

Three Minor Wrecks Reported In City Three traffic accidents occurred in the city over the weekend, including a hit and run, with only minor damage resulting. A car owned by Dr. Harold Bohnke, 1014 Central Ave., received an estimated S4O damage when struck on the left front by an unidentified vehicle sometime Sunday. Bohnke’s auto was parked on the north side of the street, in front of his home, when struck by the hit and run vehicle. Autos operated by Jimmie D. McClain, 28-y ear-old Hoagland resident, and David Arthur Hartman, 42, of 754% Mercer Ave., colided on Mercer Ave., Sunday. Both were southbound on Mercem Ave., and McClain started to pass on the right, as Hartman attempted a right turn, and the two collided. Damages were estimated at S4O to Hartman’s auto, while McClain’s was not damaged. A car driven by Wava E. Deihl, 48, of Berne, struck on auto operated by Nola Ann Isch, 27, route 3, Decatur, at 12:03 p.m. at the intersection of Monroe and Second streets. Both autos were northbound on Second ,and stopped for a red light, with the Isch car in the right lane and the Deihl auto in the left lane. The Berne woman, however, attempted to turn right when the light changed, and struck the left side of the ~ Isch car. Damages were estimated at $125 to the Deihl auto and $25 to the Isch vehicle.
