LET’S TRY SMILING!
(An Editorial)
For many of us during these trying times ot changhf qMK
it is harder to smile than to frown. We are recommending
instead of frowns to every segment of our population. The OW
Rights Front, where the action is torrid and determined in sonar,
quarters, between the races, poses many problems, but we
like to point out that there are not enough smiles inside the rdOl
of each race.
There are those In the white race
who have different views on the
lot of the Negro and how their po- ,
titions will be affected by the new
Civil Rights Law. We think this
group should try smiling and dig a .
little deeper to make the law work.
TTierf are other whites who take
the position that states' rights will
be invaded and in time most of the
framework of government will be
central. We feel that a smile from
this segment would go a long ways
toward making America a better
place in which to live.
Civil Rights Bill Passage
Is Monument To JFK
(An Editorial)
There have been many monuments purposed for the late
president John F. Kennedy. There have been many other acta of
acknowledgement of the fine contribution made by him in his
short tenure. We think the passage of the Civil Rights Legisla
tion was the greatest contribution that the United Satea Congress
could and will make to the lamented man. j
Senator McGovern, in addressing the Senate, in behalf of
the measure paid a fitting tribute to his efforts and we take this
opportunity to quote it from the Congressional Rerord.
*'Mr. President, by sn unusual co
incidence. it was just exactly I year
•go today, on June 10, 1963. that
the late President Kennedy sent his
message to Congress calling for the
passage of a comprehensive civil
rights law. One year later that law,
which will stand along with the test
ben treaty as the greatest achieve
ments of our late President, is
•bout to become the law of the
land.
