A Time for Moderation Nasty racial clashes in New York, murder and torturing of Negroes in the South, militant “antiCommunists” forming their own armies to “defend liberty.” In Illinois and California — these headlines are enough to bring genuine despair to the heart of any moderate who believes strongly in liberty through Constitutional means. It is an outright shame upon our country 1 when a man like Senator Barry Coldwater can capture a national partyi and use it as a form to spread such statements as “Extremism in defense of liberty is no vice.” This is nothing but fuel on the fires of racial strife, and justifies any extreme in defense of “liberty,” real or imagined. We hope that it was merely another thoughless remark by an expert in them. We hope that it was not calculated. We would hate to think that the nominee of one of the major jiarties openly advocates violating our constitution, and foments violence. Os course, he had done it in the |>ast, when he was not a Presidential candidate of a major party, when he was only the voice of a small, relatively newly settled state. But the fact that leading Republicans of the New England states. New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, New Jersey, Maryland, and Delaware have repudiated his leadership, and deserted the national Republican ticket could spell disaster for the two-party system in America. This represents states with votes. It cannot be balanced by any imagined defection of the entire “solid South” plus all the border states? The nomination of a moderate Republican, with moderate, 1964 views, could well have created a real national party for the Republicans, who have never really penetrated the south. But by nominating instead a radical, they may now have won representation in the south, only to lose the entire east. It would be a poor trade. Most of us here in Adams county are true moderates. We eschew violence, whatever its purpose. We shudder at the thought of Barry’s boys bombing Viet Nam, Loas or Cambodia to “defoliate” the jungle, or of attacking Russia, or Cuba, or any other act of war. We do' believe in defense of ourselves and the free world when it is attacked from outside our sphere. We have .proved it in Korea and Viet Nam, in Greece, Turkey, Yugoslavia, the Middle East, India, etc. But we are not interested in filabustering expeditions to take over and dictate to sovereign nations. We ask that others not dictate to us, and in return we must respect them. Candidates who rattle the saber and panic our allies only hurt America's, cause, the cause of freedom.

Conference July 28 On Water Levels
By BEN BURNS United Preas International LANSING, Mich. (UPD— Water experts will try to provide the long-term answer to stabilizing Great Lakes water levels in a Michigan State University conference July 28. The officials of the lake states would like to prevent a recurrence of the floods of 1952 that caused S6O million in damages and the drought of this year, which has crippled shipping and stranded recreational craft at dried up docks. One of the highlights of the conference will be the presentation of a report by the U.S. Corps of Engineers containing specific proposals for the stabilizatin of the levels of Lake Michigan, Huron and Eric, according to Michigan Atty, Gen. Frank J. Kelley, who is cosponsor of the MSU conference. Kelley said communications Jane Wyatt Slugs Kid On IV Show By VERNON SCOTT UPI Hollywood Correspondent .HOLLYWOOD (UPD— A Jane Wyatt, the serene mother of '‘Father Knows Best,’ ’ slugs a kid in a- new television show, but that won't dispel her ; mage as lovable Margaret Anderson. Anyone who belts a kid actor can't be all bad, and such is the case with Miss Wyatt. Hut she is so firmly established In the minds of televiewers 8s the ideal housewife and mother that she could spend the rest of her career strangling smallfry on television with impunity. “I played the role of Margaret Anderson for six years.” she said during a lunch break at Universal Studios.* ‘‘And the show has been running ever since (4 years). Everywhere T g<j people call me Mrs. Anderson. And because I played Robert Young’s wife, they frequently refer to me as Mrs. Young. It’s all very confusing." Dona Blonde Wig For her role in NBC’s "Proj<Wt 120.” a two-hour special titled ‘‘The- Window-Makers,” M'ss Wyatt has donned a blonde wig to help disguise hetid e n t it y. But it won't help much. She still looks like Margaret Anderson. “I have no objection to being so closely identified with that role." she smiled. "She was a generous, intelligent’ and decent woman I'll alway s he- thought of in that light. "Even the' crew members of this special I'm doing call me Margaret from time to time. 1 don't mind a bit.” In private life Miss Wyatt is Mrs. Edgar Ward, and she’s been married 29 years. She is the mother of two sons, Christopher,- 27. and Michael, 20.

from all the Great Lakes states and Canada indicate "a tremendous amount of interest" in the day-long conference. Follows Toronto Conference It will consist of general discussion of the problem; detailed discussion of the adverse effects of low lake levels, on industry, small boats, public water supply, conservation, the St. Lawrence Seaway and Canadian interests. It follows by one month a two- day international conference in Toronto, which decided to turn the long-term question of water levels over to the International Joint Commission. The MSU conference will close with possible solutions to the problem. U.S. Sen. Philip A. Hart, DMich.. will discuss Congress’ role In the Great Lakes water problem and Harley Lawhead, chief of the Great Lakes Hydraulics Branch of the Corps of Engineers will present stabilization projxisals. Included are ideas of building a control at the southern end of Lake Huron much like the one at Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., which controls the level of Lake Superior, said Claud Erickson, chairman of Gov. George Romney's Task Force on Water. Problems Are Recited Some of the problems connected with controlling the levels of the lakes artificially were pointed out by Dale W. Granger of the Michigan Water Resources Commission. Granger said, “to keep Michigan and Huron within a vertical fluctuation of 18 inches it would be necessary to drastically, increase flow through tfrie Sit. Clair and Detroit Rivers for months at a time during high water and to reduce it to a small fraction of natural flow In drought time. “This would pose enormous problems, not only of engineering and finance but also of the effects produced on —the levels of lower lakes, on shipping, .power development, waste assimilation, marine life and all the uses of this great system' of fresh water.-" Other water resources commission engineers have ques- . tioned the diversion of Canadian water to bolster current deficiencies. When to Shut Off7. The basic determinate is when these new inflows must be shut off to prevent a carryover of the increase onto , the top of the next high water, according to Norman Billings of the commission’s hydrology di~:Vision, “Neither of the extremes experienced in the past is desirable. Although high .water -is of little concern to navigation and causes no difficulty to power interests, all suffer from, very low water,” he said. The U.S. Corps of Engineers on the other hand, feels as long as the precious resources of Great Lakes Water is conserved and used carefully, there is no real crisis and water levels will return to normal when rainfall increases. The report which the engineers are now completing details the studies of possibilities for reducing some of the extremes in fluctuation that must be considered before any good answers can be given, officials said.

Goldwater Already - ;— - Is On Defensive
By LYLE WILSON United Press International The time has come for Sen. Barry M. Goldwater to escape from the semantics jungle into which he apparently wandered on purpose immediately upon becoming the Republican presidential nominee. Semantics’ Is* a four dollar word embracing the study of meanings; the study, for example, of what is the meaning of the word extremism and of the word mdderation. In his acceptance speech last week before the Republican National Convention, Goldwater used those two words in a passage that delighted his enemies, appalled his fair weather friends and obtained from fair weather friend and all weather foe demands for explanation, clarification or disavowal. At any stage of a presidential campaign, the candidate of the out-party should be on the offensive and the candidate of the in-party should be on the defensive. That is the way it should be but not the way it is. Republican Goldwater is bn the defensive. He must get -off the defensive, come out slugg'ng accurately and put President Johnson in the defensive role, or proud Barry M. Goldwater may be as badly beaten in 1964 as Alf M. Landon was in 1936. Should Seize Initiative What Goldwater must do to put his campaign special on the fast track i; to seize the campaign initiative. The senator is lucky. The time and place and golden opportunity for the initiative are here and now. They are in the United States Senate whe-e administration bills coming up invite Goldwater to make big conservative medicine. The issues to be raised in the Senate between now and the Aug. 24 meeting of the Democratic National Convention at Atlantic City are largely in the domestic field where Goldwater is strongest. Strongest, that is,

on evidence that conservative opposition is most numerous, best organized, most enthusiastic and least vulernable to indictment on charges of extremism in the general area of domestic affairs. This conservative point of view represents the accumulated and frustrated conservatives opposition to the New Deal, the Fair Deal, the New Frontier and to LBJ’s professional New Dealism. Poverty Bill Due First up in the Senate will be LBJ’s billion dollar war-on-pov-erty proposal. Conservatives or any group of political outs would have to be suspicious of any in administration’s election year proposal to spend $1 billion of tax money at the local level. The validity of Goldwawater’s claim to the American conservative leadership will depend somewhat on how he organizes and conducts the effort to keep that $1 billion out of President Johnson’s hands. Coming up, also, is the foreign aid authorization. That invites another first rank Goldwater performance. He will not be alone. And if the senator minds his language he will be able to support vast economies in foreign aid .without inviting another concerted attack on his foreign policies and his fitness to represent the United States in that field. When Goldwater told the San Francisco convention that extremism in defense of liberty was no vice, he was asking for trouble. He got it. He got trouble despite the reasonable assumption that he was talking not about the John Birch Society but about Patrick Henry. Semantics again! What did he mean?
