A View That Will Stand
Since the recent election, we have.read manv analvses. some considered, some way-out, but the following appeared in Sunday's South Bend Tribune, and is worth repeating here. The Tribune is a Repubican moderate newsjuijH*r, <>f excelent craftsmanship, and' not given to lopsided thinking. Their editorials are indeed refreshing, after ireading the opinions 01 right-wing kook newspapers some of us are subject to. We give full credit to The Tribune for this fine editorial: I UK REBOUND EFFECT Elections an always informative and -frequently educational, but. sometinjes the message has trouble getting through to those who need it most. I .-.ainplo. Ph .-idiot massive Tjrov. 3 victory informed the world that American reject the ultra conservative approach to the problems of the day.

These are the people who have spent the last three months boasting that Barry Goldwater’s nomination “pulled both parties to the right.” It during 9 the campaign.
Survive The Hunt
The hunting season is approaching its height, and each year millions of -\niericans look forward to it. Whether it l>e deer, dove: duck. quad, or other game, it is always good to enjoy the cooler weather, and outdoors, when the hunting season rolls around. Hunting accidents usually occur * through carelessness, and when they involve shotguns, it is often a ci trying loaded guns in cars, crossing fences with !>>aih*tl guns. etc. - In deer hunting, when rifles are used, this can'be quite dangerous, especially on ' hunting. In dove fields, where doves are

Rut on election day a rebound effect went to work. In their flight from Goldwaterism. voters created a Congress, particularly a House of Representatives, that appears to be farther left than any Congress this country has seeri in the lasj 30 years. ' This election may have shattered forever the famed .House coalition of Republicans and Southern Democrats which, for all its faults, often acted as a useful brake on the liberal Democratic majorities and kept major legislation oriented generally toward the political center. • The “choice not an echo” theme, in short, has backfired. So long as both presidential nominees stayed within shouting distance of the middle of the road where the bulk of Americans travel, there was a minimum of danger of big legislative Rut some Republicans in 1964 deci the time had come sot a big swing to the rig’ l t. The voters said "no" and the result in the national legislature is a parehtly going to be a big swing to the left.’ In their disdain lor .moderation, the tkev wanted a Congress that i" >n. This is uncomfortably close to the kind of wide left-right swings seen in England, where decades of a strict conservative-liberal split have produced a situation in which one partv indulges in programs ot nationalization’and the other party periodically denationalizes. f The course for the Republican party L take now is not to “purge” conservatives the wav conservatives purged “liberals” in July. It is to reopen the party doors to Republicans of many shades of persua- , It is true that this will swing the party as a whole back toward the center. Rut only in this way can the Democratic Party be tugged proportionately back toward the center.
hunted in the style used in Dixie of sometimes in the midwest, where fields are surrounded by others, quite often hunters pick up shot when birds are fired on flying too low over the field. And. in quail hunting it is a good rule to hunt-in parties of two. W hen more than two hunters are following the dogs and fire on the covey rise, there-is considerably more danger involved than when only two persons are firing. As a final rule. one;Should never point a gun al anyone. In short, we hope all hunters will keep in mind this advice for the 1964-65 hunting season.
FARM f NOTESIffSc
DON FRANTZ
County Agriculture Agent
; Green is in the current issue of the Hoosier Farmer magazine. •• • • t A COUNTY-WIDE inspection of all sheep flocks will be made starting December 7. The purpose is to completely eradicate scabies which is I one of the dirtiest, most stinking, diseases of the species. i The inspecting will be done by local sheep men working under the j supervision of the slate veterinarian. It is believed that a complete inspection of all sheep and treating any
side ones can completely rid this state of the disease. We hope that • even one will help. The inspection | is visual apd not much handling, if any, will be needed'. STATE FARM BUREAU has come out in support of the Indiana Sales Tax. Their president. George Doup, has stated that it will result in a substantial reduction in property taxes and that more of it should be allocated by the 1965 legislature for local schools. I The Governor-elect has stated his. opposition to tire sales tax but has not . called for its repeal. He has said that it should be replaced if an adequate, suitable alternative could be found. There is room for maneuveri tag in that statement. It is estimated that about two-thirds of the state revenue goes for education and you | will find that about'' two-thirds of each township tax rate is for education. About the only way to reduce this is either to give the youngsters less schooling or to do away w. Ji some of them. Neither alternative i has much merit so we will probably continue to raise more and more tax money because there are more and more people of school age. : The director of the commission on state tax and finance policy reports that from 1950 to 1960 tire population in the 5 to 17-age bracket increased by over 54 per cent and that Indiana university went from 11,481 students in 1955 to 20,953 in 1964. He also stated that Indiana is adding secondary school students at the rate of 30.000 I per year. While these things were going' on the (state reduced their share of local school costs from about 35 per cent in 1951 to 26 per cent in 1960. Now let’s please not condemn the state legislators for not getitng it all I done in 61 days. — | Read the classifieds:

My boyfriend (21) has a very- “sissyish” boss who cart talk anyone into doing anything.
