—Buckley man, who refuses to back right-to-work legislation); on wild spending in Alabama; and so on. There is the examination of his rhetoric, which betrays a shallowness conservatives have not encouraged in their national political leaders. But Nixon must be careful, in as much as it is a political problem at once to dissuade the Wallace-inclined voter, and to do so endearingly. Mr. Nixon has a hard job on his hands, and he is aware of the consequences of slipping up.

Humphrey also was nominated as expected, but the rancor that divided the Democratic convention, and the clash of war protesters and police in Chicago served to polarize the political climate and do uncertain damage to the traditional allegiance of liberals to the Democratic party. Then, only five days before the election, Johnson announced a cessation of the bombings of North Vietnam, raising hopes for serious peace negotiations and bringing some Democratic liberals back to the party’s standard bearer. Further obfuscating the campaign was the uncalculable appeal of Wallace, making the strongest third party bid for presidency since 1948—a year in which Harry S Truman upset Thomas E. Dewey and defied the polls.

Letter to the Editor Some people don’t know what it is to have a cold, cold chill run up and down your spine as you listen to a song. or hear a news report on the radio and wonder if you might hear one of your own brother’s or son’s name announced so coldly. You can’t know the feeling unless you have someone in the service. Someone to be afraid for. Close to you! Lord, is there no way on this earth that men can live together without fighting and killing? Can we never know a universal love as we were meant to know it? To our family, love was an everyday thing. We never made any special effort to show it. Yet, each of the seven kids in the family knew that no matter what, we had each other and Mama & Daddy. But, as each of the boys got out of school, the love of his country was stronger than that of his family. Out of the five boys, all have served, are now serving, or trying to talk Mom into signing the papers so he can serve. The oldest, now an Air Force Captain, is serving in Guam. The next oldest, a Staff Sgt. in the Air Force, has been to Vietnam several times. The third oldest, spent three years in, but he got out to help Mama when Daddy died. The next one, also a Staff Sgt. in the Air Force, has been in for nearly six years. He spent four of these in England and now he is in Thailand for a year. The youngest of the seven is now trying to persuade Mama to sign the papers so that he too can join in the fight to save his country from Communism and its cruelties. My husband also served in the Air Force. Yes, we are a very lucky family!!!!!! At least none of ius have been killed yet. That is something to thank our God in Heaven for. The meaningof this as a Prayer may or may not be very clear to some of you, but I‘m sure almost everyone knows how it is meant to be. Especially those mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers of those boys as they get their orders and are shipped out to all parts of this earth to help. Once again I ask, Can’t we ever have the universal love that God meant for all mankind to share? Mrs. Clifford Wuertz To The Editor, I can’t understand why some of the DePauw students are raising such a fuss about voting in Putnam County. After all, our servicemen have to send their absentee ballots back to their home town. Why do students who are staying safely in the U.S., and attending a university that pays no taxes for the up keep of our town or county, wish to vote here? Are they really interested in this community? I doubt it. Mrs. W. J. Fuson
