W ■ I.MU ■■■I.IIIIM ..■..mu I mini I IIS 111 ————**< II *'■ A Serious Offense A 21-year-old driver wan recently apprehended by the St. Marys, 0., city police after he eluded a New Bremen, o.,'police cruised in a wildly speeding slight on Ohio 66. Speeds during the chase were estimated at times to be in excess of 100 mp.h. Seven charges were placed in the district, not city, court by the prosecutor. Three were by the New Bremen police for speeding, reckless driving, and re- . sisting arrest; the St. Marys police preferred the same charges, plus thfe charge of driving without lights. The district court judge, after finding the young man guilty of the seven counts, fined him a total of $635, plus $63 in court costs. In ad« dition, he was given 10 days in the Auglaize county Jail. His drivers license was suspended indefinitely, but his sentence wasn’t. Ohio this year has cut its highway death rate considerably, thanks to a concerted public information program, and the complete cooperation of the courts and police, as well as the public. There is no question but what the general public of Adams county will overwhelmingly back up law enforcement officers, prosecutors, and courts who hold the public peace and safety to be a paramount consideration —- the response to editorial comment on local reckless driving exceeded any response on any other subject. In neighboring Wells county, Judge Hornier Bryd has announced that the names of all juvenile offenders will now be made public, and that he will begin giving actual sentences for first offenses, because of the alarming increase in crime in that county. All over the state, a concerted effort is being made to reverse statistics that show that rural and small-town areas are becoming the vocal points of crime increases, rather than the big cities. It will take everyone’s cooperation. The involvement of every citizen in total effort is necessary. We must understand that government responsibility commits us all to participation. We have no freedoms if we wiH not protect them. Lt. Gov. Ristine, when he addressed the state bar association in Fort Wayne last week, pointed to the alarming statistics of local crime and degeneration of local government, and called for active participation on the part of attorneys, fli pointed out that The only aWnattve Is increased state partipicalion in local affairs. The handwriting is on the wall. Either we take care of our own problems, or the state will have to do It for us. Most of us would sincerely prefer to do it on the local level; but all of us want the problem solved, one way or the other. Editorial written byDick Heitor

Johnson Favorite To Win California

(EDITOR’S NOTE' Thia is the second in a series of dispatches by United Press International reporters on political trends around the nation, six weeks before the presidential election.) * " Outlook ’64—California By DE VAN L. SHUMWAY United Preas International SACRAMENTO, Calif. (UP!) —By all odds, President Johnson should win California going away, He has nearly everything going for him in the nation’s newly-crowned most populous state. For instance, there's registration. The final figures are not in yet, but nearly” eight million persons are expected to be registered to vote on Nov. 3. And nearly five million of those will be Democrats. The polls reflect Johnson’s lead. They show him ahead of Republican Sen. Barry Goldwater by amounts ranging generally around 60-40, more or less. But a couple of factors are worrying the state’s Democrats, including Gov. Edmund G. Brown, the President’s campaign chief. Had Slim Margin One is this: The last Democrat -to carry California was Harry S. Truman back in 1948. This state was his .biggest win on the way to re-election. And

then he barely made It. With nearly four million votes cast, he got the state’s electoral votes by a pencil-thin 1T,865 margin. Since then, California has gone for Republicans — Dwight D. Eisenhower twice and Richard M. Nixon, whose home town used to be Whittier, Calif., once. Nixon edged John F. Kennedy by 35,623 votes in a tally that took a week to count. ’Die absentee votes won It for the former vice president. Another problem for Johnson’s California lieutenants is that the President’s voting strength is untried while Goldwater has already run in this state once this year. The Arizona conservative scored his most important win —one that carried him to the 1 mid-July GOP national convention in San Francisco in a winning mood — In California’s June GOP presidential primary election. Had Full Backing The Democrats fell behind an uncommitted delegation headed by Brown, who easily turned aside a challenge by Los Angeles Mayor Samuel Yorty. Actually, the delegation was 100 per cent for Johnson, But Goldwater met New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller in a head-to-head clash for California's 86 GOP convention votes. And pe won—just barely.

Although the GbP standardbearer carried only 14 of the state’s 58 counties, they were the big ones. With more than two million GOP votes cast, Goldwater's victory margin was 68,350. Two other fights share the spotlight with the Johnson-Gold-water battle for California’s 40 electoral votes—and both could affect the outcome. Saltatet Running Hard U.S. Sen. Pierre Salinger, former press secretary to two presidents, is riming hard for election to a full six-year term in the Senate. He was appointed to the five-month unexpired term of the late Clair Engle, after winning the Democratic nomination in the primary. His Republican challenger is George Murphy, former actor, now businessman from populous Southern California. Murphy, a conservative Republican, is campaigning primarily on charges that Salinger is a carpetbagger for returning to the state suddenly to run for the Senate after' moving away. The polls show Salinger with a substantial margin — but his lead is narrowing. Another major issue is a proposed constitutional amendment to forbid state and local legislative bodies from taking away a property owner’s “absolute discretion” to dispose of his real estate In any fashion, to any one. Affects Housing Laws The amendment, proposition 14 on the Nov. 3 ballot, would nullify substantial parts of the state's open housing laws, including one approved by the 1963 Legislature. Governor Brown has been

fighting the initiative with every means at his command. At the Democratic National Convention, he tried to enlist the aid of the national party. And he wants Johnson to take a stand. Goldwater, on the other hand, takes the position that the initiative is a California problem—a matter that doesn’t concern a man from a neighboring state. The question is this: How much, if any, so-called white backlash vots will go to Goldwater as a result of the housing initiative.
