MEMO TO 18 YEAR OLDS: HONOR THE VOTE
Now that the, It^year-olds hwe the Constitutional right t 0 vote, some political forces are making a concert d effort to channel the young peoples thinking in one direction — left-liberal. And many persons believe that may be fairly easy to do. because it is felt that voters of such a tender age will naturally be idealistic, desit ous of change, unafraid and therefore not backward-looking but facing into the future with hope and great sincerity. That is a description of millions of young persons, but it , ova not mean that they will r> .ch headlong into the unknown in politics. The liberalradicals who believe that the voe of the IS-, 19- and 20-year olds are all sewed up may be in for a big surprise. Child-

ren take many of their habits and customs from their parents, despite the supposed enormous generation gap of our day. A few years ago the 18-yean-olds received the vote in Scotland, an-d. to everyone's surprise, mor's conservatives than ever were elected to public office. With the 18-year-olds voting in the general British elections in June of 1970, the Conservatives were returned to power over the Laborites, wh > had ruled for six years. So the political gap between the generations may t ■ over estimated. There is no reason to believe that American youths will opt for chaos, which may be the alternative to measured change. We ask them to honor the vote with their best thinking.
