Whitcomb, a 51-year-old Seymour attorney, will be inaugurated next Jan. 13, succeeding Democratic Gov. Roger D. Branigin and will become the first Republican since Gov. Harold W. Handley in 1961 gave up the office of Statehouse boss to Matthew E. Welsh, a Democrat. Two Republicans are newcomers to Congress. They are former State Sen. Earl F. Landgrebe, Valparaiso, the successor to Charles A. Halleck, Rensselaer, who retired this year after serving as House floor leader during his unbroken House membership since 1935, and former State Sen. David W. Dennis, Richmond.

INDIANAPOLIS (UPI)— District Atty. Edwin Applegate said yesterday he had received “numerous” telephone calls from DePauw University students at Greencastle alleging they were being prevented from voting. About 300 DePauw students registered to vote in the May primary, but various legal actions left their status as resident voters in doubt. Only Monday, Federal Judge Cale J. Holder dismissed a petition by 18 DePauw students against the Putnam County Election Board and other

county officials. The petition sought to enjoin local officials from blocking their vote, but Holder described the action as “premature.” County election officials in Greencastle confirmed that some students were being turned away from polling stations. They said they were acting under the guidance of a Putnam Circuit Court ruling. However, Applegate said the main criteria for determining residency of a voter is the voter’s intent and not a driver’s license, a property tax receipt or other similar items.

Whitcomb to have GOP controlled legislature

By HORTENSE MYERS INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Republican Governor-elect Edgar Whitcomb will have a GOPcontrolled Legislature when he takes office in January and the House Speaker may be the mar he defeated for the party’s gubernatorial nomination last summer. Whitcomb won the party’s gubernatorial nomination over Rep. Otis Bowen, R-Bremen, who served as Speaker of the House in the 1967 session of the Legislature. Bowen was reelected in the GOP sweep Tuesday and has indicated he will

seek the Speaker’s post again. The unofficial tabulation, subject to revision because of the closeness of some races, shows a 1969 Senate composed of 36 Republicans and 14 Democrats and a House with 73 Republlcans and 27 Democrats. Over-all, 19 incumbents were beaten for re-election, mostly Democrats. Thus Whitcomb will have a Legislature composed of so many members of his own party that any gubernatorial veto could be over-ruled if political party alignment were the sole basis of decision. Differences Appear It may not be. Already there are differences of opinion among Republicans as to how state government and state support to local schools are to be financed for the next biennium. There are regional differences about how Indiana’s time problem should be solved and philosophical differences on many of the other 1969 legislative issues. For the Republicans, this was the 20th time in the 20th Century for their party to control both houses of the state legislature. Two years ago, the Democrats controlled the Senate 29-21 and the GOP the House, 66-34. The 1969 political lineup conceivably could be changed b> recounts or revisions of the unofficial tabulations. There were five races in which the unofficial victory margins are less than 400 votes. The closest ol these is that by which Joseph L. Hensley, Madison, was edged out in a five-county district in which two state representatives were chosen. The winners were Reps. Ralph A. Dunbar, R-Os-good and Rep. Harry B. Spanagel, D - Lawrenceburg, with Hensley in 3rd place only 59 votes behind Spanagel, a fellow Democrat. While thisbest-two-among-four situation would not change the political lineup, it illustrates the cliff-hanging aspects of this legislative election. Sen. David Rogers, D-Bloom-ington, squeaked past his GOP challenger, Roger Curry, also of Bloomington, by 101 votes in the three-county district. Peterson Beaten Sen. Robert Peterson, D-Ro-chester, was defeated in the unofficial tabulation with only 138 votes separating him from the winner, former state representative Leo Sullivan, R-Peru. Russell E. Breeden, Leavenworth Republican, defeated Rep. Nelson D. Kennedy, D-Palmyra, by 254 votes, and Rep. Austin E. Barker, D-Attica, won over Republican Harold G. Lambert, Clinton, by an unofficial 382. The largest loss of incumbent senators came in Marion County with 1967 veterans Sens. Marie Lauck, Patrick Chavis, Kenneth Pedigo, Nelson Grills, and Hugh E. Miles all were defeated by their Republican challengers. However, the new senators from Marion County include four former state representatives—Walter H. Barbour, Lawrence M. Borst, Charles E. Bosma and Danny L. Burton, as well as former Indiana Appellate Court Judge John M. Ryan. Other Senate veterans defeated were Sen. Chester A. Watson, D-Fort Wayne, a lawmaker since 1931; Sen. Marvin E. Stewart, D-Monon; Sen. Rodney E. Piper, D-Muncie; Sen. Victor Green, D-Pekin; Sen. William Taylor, LaPorte; and Sen. Elmo Holder, D-Evansville.

By EUGENE J. CADOU INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) - The glamour and publicity of Sen. Birch Bayh made him the outstanding Democratic exception to the Republican tidal wave that swept Indiana in Tuesday’s election. Bayh’s imagery of youth on the move that downed veteran GOP Sen. Homer E. Capehart six years ago remained undimmed although he is 40 years old and his defeated GOP rival, State Rep. William D. Ruckelshaus, is only 36. Bayh’s face and public record are familiar to many thousands of Hoosiers while less than a year ago Ruckelshaus was comparatively unknown to voters living outside of Marion County. Bayh was author of the important bill to establish a line of succession in the event of a president’s death or disability and is working In the limelight to reform the electoral college system and to legalize voting of 18.year.olds. The fact that Ruckelshaus charged that Bayh had voted for every big-spending proposal of President Johnson and “Ruck” even had called Bayh a “liar and a thief” apparently had no effect. Weakness of Ruckelshaus Ruckelshaus was handicapped by being a Catholic who mar. Landmark TAMPA, Fla. (UPD—The Tampa Bay Hotel was the poshest facility in Florida when it was built by railroad tycoon Henry B. Plant before the turn of the century. It was “the” place to be and served as headquarters for Teddy Roosevelt during the Spanish-American War. The rambling building still is a local landmark but to most people it is known for its current use — administration building of the University of Tampa. -Cliches inal and civil cases alike. Excessive bail, excessive fines, and cruel and unusual punishments are grouped in a single prohibition. The Founding Fathers realized what some present-day politicians seem to have forgotten: A man without property rights—without the right to the product of his own labor— is not a free man. These constitutional rights all have two characteristics in common. First, they apply equally to all persons. Second, they are, without exception, guarantees of freedom or immunity from governmental interference. They are not assertions of claims against others, individually or collectively. They merely say, in effect, that there are certain human liberties, including some pertaining to property, which are essential to free men and upon which the state shall not infringe. Now what about the so-called human rights that are represented as superior to property rights? What about the “right” to a job, the “right” to a standard of living, the “right” to a minimum wage or a maximum workweek, the “right” to a “fair” price, the “right” to bargain collectively, the “right” to security against the adversities and hazards of life, such as old age and disability? The framers of the Constitution would have been astonished to hear these things spoken of as rights. They are not immunities from governmental compulsion; on the contrary, they are demands for new forms of governmental compulsion. They are not claims to the products of one’s own labor; they are, In some if not in most cases, claims to the products of other people’s labor. These “human rights” are indeed different from property rights, for they rest on a denial of the basic concept of property rights. They are not freedoms of immunities assured to all persons alike. They are special privlieges conferred upon some persons at the expense of others. The real distinction is not between property rights and human rights, but between equality of protection from governmental compulsion on the one hand and demands for the exercise of such compulsion for the benefit of favored groups on the other.

ried a divorcee, by unnecessarily coming out for parimutuel horse race betting and by his newness as a state political figure. Nevertheless the senatorial and gubernatorial campaigns were among the most spirited in state history. Secretary of State Edgar D. Whitcomb, the GOP winner for governor, had none of Ruckelshaus ’s weaknesses, and also profited greatly by the split in the Democratic party that gave its gubernatorial nominee, Lt. Gov. Robert L. Rock, the nomination by only two votes. Inactivity of Governor Branigin for Rock, the absence of state chairman Gordon St. Angelo, who went to Washington to work for Hubert H. Humphrey and the presidential vietory of Richard M. Nixon in Indiana likewise were telling factors in Rock’s downfall. Backers of Branigin and St. Angelo’s drive for Richard Bodine for the gubernatorial nomination were accused of sitting on their hands during the election campaign, which added fuel to the fire of factionalism. Both gubernatorial bidders promised the moon and stars to various interests during their campaigns. Promises included more pay for school teachers and bigger state aid for schools, huge road construction programs in specific localities and other big spending, all without raising state taxes. Whitcomb Has Trouble Rock probably will be amused when Whitcomb tries to solve the spending problems which, he has claimed, can be handled by economies in state govern, ment. With Republicans controlling both branches of the General Assembly and the lawmakers rampant for more authority and pay as well as being highly respectful of the power of Robert A. Wyatt, executive secretary of the Indiana State Teachers Association, Whitcomb’s economy program already is in trouble. There will be quite a few bills passed over the governor’s veto in the 1969 Legislature, according to indications. And the legislators are well aware of the general agreement of fiscal experts that a tax hike is inevitable. Nixon’s lead was more than his 222,000 majority in 1960 In line with the population increase, and It will stack up well in comparison with some of rather narrow victories of the 1968 GOP nominee in other states. George C. Wallace’s 11 per cent score was a surprise to both GOP and Democratic chiefs, who had predicted he might garner as much as 20 per cent of the vote. A pretty waitress at the Indianapolis Press Club may have given the reason. “Before I went into the election booth I had intended to vote for Wallace, but I just couldn’t do it when I closed the door—so I voted for Humphrey,” she said.
