Tlie Collegiate jB^HED V/EEKLY ATLANTIC CHRISTIAN COLLEGE, OCTOBERS], 1968 NUMBER SEVEN Faculty Discusses Candidates I By LYNN JOHNSON With elections drawing near, .lantic Christian College is anging into pre-election ac uities. On Oct. 31 and Nov. 1, a ock election, sponsored by the impus Awareness and Student inter Committees, will be held the campus. In conjunction with the elec- m, the Campus Awareness immittee sponsored a panel scussion on the candidates, lose on the panel were; for imphrey. Dr. Mildred Hart- ck, chairman of the English apartment and Dr. William 0. lulsell, chairman of the jligion Department; and for xon, Dr. E. D. Winstead, airman of the Mathematics jpartment and Hugh B. hnston Jr. of the Department of odern Languages. Dr. Arthur Wenger served as moderator for the group. Each panelist was given a three - minute opening statement, followed by questioning among the panel members and questions from the floor. Humphrey Support Dr. Hartsock urged support for the Humphrey - Muskie ticket on the basis of Humphrey’s solid record on civil rights issues, his support of Medicare, Social Security, and the Peace Corps. "When he talks about ‘law and order’,'’ she said of Humphrey, “he recognizes that the big stick alone cannot suffice. He proposes better training and better status for police. He recognizes that real solutions to violence in the streets must involve programs for bettering conditions in the urban ghettos.” She also pointed out that Humphrey has said that he is in favor of a halt in bombing in Vietnam and that he advocates a strong farm support program. Nixon’s Points In support of Richard Nixon, Johnson stated that Nixon recognizes the fact that the ghettos are private property and that “rebuilding them would make the federal government a sort of national landlord at the fantastic cost of 10 to 100 billion dollars.” Nixon advocates a policy of educating the poor in order to help them to qualify for better paying jobs. Johnston also stated that Nixon opposes “the militant type of protests that are actually blackmail backed by threats of arson and looting.” Nixon does not find an excuse '■for an individual or any minority group to act outside the law against the happiness and security of their fellow citizens.” In conclusion, Johnston stated that Nixon “wishes to restore the confidence of both nations abroad and of the average American citizen in the integrity of our national leadership.” Party Vote Dr. Paulsell, speaking in behalf of Humphrey, stated that “95 per cent of the voters are safer in voting for the party rather than the man.” He said that the nation has prospered most under Democratic leadership, pointing out that under “solid Republican leadership” the Depression was brought about. “The Democratic Party is the party of new ideas,” he declared. In behalf of Nixon, Dr. Win stead stated that much of our trouble today is due to bad leadership, including the war in Vietnam. He pointed out that Wallace would have no party structure behind him if elected and could therefore accomplish little. Humphrey is tied too closely with the Johnson administration and hampered by the rift in the Democratic Party. Nixon, said Dr. Winstead “has a strong posture in foreign affairs. He knows his way around the political scene both at home and abroad.” Dr. Winstead also praised Nixon’s “political competence.” The American Independent Party and its candidate, George Wallace, were not represented. This was due to the fact that no one volunteered to support Wallace on the panel. t: 'V?* : 1 Drive Is Aided By Gov. Moore CLOTHING DRIVE for South Korean orphans was kicked off recently by Gov.
