HUMPHREY (Continued from Page One) Hobbs gave short speeches. Bierly was introduced to the crowd by both Branigln and Hartke. Humphrey told the enthusiastic audience that the Democratic party has sought to restore responsibility and opportunity as the operating principles of the federal government. He said that responsibility has been the hallmark of the Kennedy-Johnson administration and that it Is the quality which most distinguishes President Johnsori from Goldwater. Humphrey then defined responsibility in hard-hitting words which drew cheers and applause after each example he cited. Outlines Responsibility •‘Responsibility," he said, “is taking an economy which has suffered three recessions in eight Republican years and transforming it into an economy which produces 43 consecutive months.- of record-breaking prosperity. "Responsibility is reducing the Unemployment rate from almost 7 per cent in January, 1961, to

less than five per cent in July, 1964, and reducing it in Indiana from 8 7 per cent to 4 2 per cent. “Responsibility is guaranteeing to workers a just and equitable minimum wage. And the Democratic administration and congress has enacted a minimum wage of $1.25 and broadening coverage, too. “Responsibility is enacting a tax reduction to provide individrials and corporations with 11 billion dollars to spend or invest for the future. “Responsibility is recognizing that 35 million Americans still do not participate fully in the prosperity of this land. And President Johnson has declared war on poverty. "Responsibility is guaranteeing to every American, regnrdlei of race, color, creed or national origin, the basic rights of •itl/.enshlp, and the civil rights act of 1964 has been passed. "Responsibility is attempting to provide the American farmer with a more equitable share in our national prosperity. Earm income has increased by over $1 billion each year; surpluses have declined, exports have risen. But responsibility is also recognizing that much more remains to be done—and the Johnson administration intends to do it. "Responsibility is insuring that America will be first in military strength and first in the pursuit of peace. And today we possess more powerful military" forces than any nation in history, and the nuclear test ban treaty proves that no nation will surpass our determination for a peaceful, safe world for our children." Outlining the record of Sen. Goldwater, Humphrey enumerated the legislation which the Republican candidate had voted against. He listed, in order, the tax cut bill, the vocational education act, the national defense education act, the college aid act, the test ban treaty, the trade expansion act, tlie civil rights bill and hospital insurance under the iocial security act. "Sent’tor Goldwater." he said, “has voted against the college student, the taxpayer, the doctors, the Negro, the businessman and the farmer. He has even voted against keeping the air we breathe free from nuclear contamination. Summarises Voting Record “In short," Humphrey - summarized. "the leader of the Goldwater faction said 'No' to almost every constructive piece of legislation to come before the congress in the past four years. This record of retreat, reaction and regression stands as the very repudiation of responsibility. Our

Lecture And Movie On Safety Tonight
Sgt. Darryl Bower, of the Indiana state police, will give a lecture and movie on safety at 7:30 tonight at the I & M building to the members of the Telstars auto club and a number of Interested adults. His appearance was arranged by the auto club. The Tehtars are a 20-member group of young men organized to promote not only their own automotive interests, but the safe driving habits of club members. The club owns a 1955 Chevrolet which the members have reworked and which was raced regularly this summer at the Pense dragstrip near Sidney, O. Work on this ear was financed by money which the members earned through sponsorship of car washes and teen dances. Some of this money was diverted to other uses last fall, when the club made a sizeable donation'to the Decatur Community Fund. Attending tonight’s meeting, besides the club members, will be Judge Myles F. Parrish and a number of interested local clergymen. ■ . , ’ - ' Officers of the club are Paul Rich, "president, Fr<>d Brecht, vice president, Jim Teeter, secretary, and John Noll, treasurer. The club meets each Sunday afternoon at the Mcßride welding and engineering shop. Owner Floyd Mcßride has matje his facilities available to the group for their meetings. opposition has shown that it di! not understand the meaning of responsibility in the past, and has jironiisejj only more irresponsibility in the future." Humphrey dwelt at length on the Goldwater position on civil rights. "The backers of the party* of Lincoln have been betrayed by a man who could not see making the emancipation proclamation a reality when the congress of the United States voted on human rights this summer." Humphrey closed his speech with a quotation from an address by Franklin D. Roosevelt. "Governments can err, presidents do make mistakes, but the immortal Dante tefis us that Divine Justice weighs the sins of the coldblo<>ded and the sins of the warmhearted in a different scale. Belter the occasional faults of a government living in the spirit of charity than the consistent omi<sions of a government frozen in the ice of its own indifferenej.”
