Fr?nkl.q C*wn?y LOCAL EDITORIAL COMMENT More Teaching Needed For what it might be worth, a survey was taken last year among high school students, which reveals some .startling results. The survey was con ducted by U, S. News and World Report. The following results were presented as the findings of ?those students surveyed: . - 71% would deny an accused person the right to confront; his accuser. 41% believe that Freedom of the Press should be canceled. 34% favored the denial of Free ""iipeach to certain people. 26% would allow search and seizure without consent. 53% beYteve the government should own bitnks, railroads and steel compariiesx^ ? 56% voted for clbse govern ment regulation of IvU busi nesses.*. 62% thought a worker shoMd not produce all he ..pan. 629E said the government should have the responsibility to provide jobs. .?* 61% rejected the profit incen tive as necessary to survival of the free enterprise system. 84% denied that patriotism is vital and plays an important part in pur lives. From these shocking disclos ures, those of us who .had up-to now found some hope for our country through the nex~tl gen eration, are rudely awake'ned. The arficle names the three places where a child might be learning" to favor these many things which are contrary to our constitution. The places are: Home, Church and School. Included are church schools, but It also ex presses doubt that those Inter viewed had much history of at tendance at Sunday Schools, or, for that matter, could have had much home life. It points the finger to the public schools, agree. It Is hard to realize that this type of thinking is being taught in our homes or our churches. Being different now-a-days is to be "In' 'a$ the Jet-set refers to It. Children want, as much as any thing else In the world, to be "In." Unless some why is found to halt this headstrong rush toward madness, these youngsters are going to find, far too soon, that 4nstead of being "In,'' they and tlielj- freedoms, too, are' going to be^Out." We arV^certain that this poll did not include youngsters In this area. W&\are convinced that, by and large> ^youngsters here are patriotic aitd^they do respect the American System 'of free enterprise and persimal freedoms. " It may be youngsters such as those here who will be called. on in the days ahead to "teach" those Interviewed just what re sponsibility means.

NO LETTER TODAY ... 1 ? ; i Viewpoint By JKSSK HEI-MS \ President Off On 14B When President Johnson re newed his deiband the other night for repeal of Section 14 (b) of the Taft-Hartley Act, he sought to justify his demand on the strangest sort of reas oning. Here is his exact state *jient, as contained in his '?Svta^e of the Union" address: ". /by the repeal of section 14(b) of ftniTaft- Hartley Act (I propose) tcNimike the labor laws in all our stages equal to the 31 states whicfrvdo not have tonight right-to^work measures." " That was it. Nothing more. So, if one takes Mr. Johnson at his word, what he seeks is mandatory uniformity in all of the 50 states, regardless of how any or all of the states may feel about the matter. There are 19 states of the Union, including North Caro lina, which have right -to-work lawi 'o?i the books. It is the feel ing in North Carolina, and 18 other states, that workers ought not to be required by law to pay dues to union in order to obtain and hold a job. Bit in the- name of "uniformity," President Johnson has renewed his demands that all workers be subject to a requirement that they pay dues to a union in order to obtain work, or to retain the jobs they now have. We would state an alternative proposition to the President. If what he desires is "uni formity," let him ask Congress to achieve it by enacting a national rlght-to-work law, which would restore to Ameri cans in 31 states their right to join a union, or refuse to join,- as may suit their own in dividual wishes. Senator Sam J. Ervin, Jr., delivered a talk this past Friday night in Arlington, Vir ginia, before the Virginia State Bar Association. He commented " that the renewed Jerry McKiown SHOW 8 a.rr 12 Noon Monday - ^ aturday J On WIZS WIZZZZZZ. The Best There Is 1450 ' On On Your1 Henderson Dial 1000 Watts fight in the Senate over the proposal to repeal Section 14(b) was remindful of the pre vailing doctrine in France some centuries ago when French Kings possessed virtually ab solute power over the lives of their subjects. In that de spotic era in France, the right to work was a royal right which the King could sell and which the subjects were required to buy and pay for. Senator Ervin sakl that Presi dent Johnson's demand for re peal of Section 14(b) rl>,, as he pHt it, "a call for compulsory unioitfc$m, and compulsory un ionism Ifcsjased upon (the argu ment tUwty the right to work is a labor uni^xrlght, which the labor union c^h^sell and (which) the. individualNtorkerT must buy if he is to be allowed to earn a livelihood f<V himself and his loved ones witn\his own hands and talents.'' \ It remains to be setta, of course, whether Prescient Johnson can successfully com- , rnand the Cony res s to do away with the American worker's ' r ight to decide whether he wants i to join a union. The President has made a political promise i to union leaders, and apparently , he intends ft^keep it, even though 1 an vi?rferw helming majority of 1 Americans* .are opposed to what i the President is demanding. A week ago. Senator Wallace ? Bennett o f Utah arose ,on the - Senate floor to discuss two tele- < grams which he had received. One was from a union president ( in his state Who berated Sen- ] "ator Bennett for opposing the l repeal of Section 14(b). The "COME TO THINK1 1 OF IT..." by frank count Seems like we are always getting In debt to somebody. This time we are in to Dave Damel, PR man at Louisburg College., or .it least Birdie is.*. ..We get our stuff from him Don't know if Birdie talked tu n'Dave or If they communicated by carrier .pigeon, but Dave lias clipped (We uselhis word advisedly) an article .from a newspaper (Where else can you clip an article.1') It is an amazing bit of information After all these years, wouldn't you know that it would bp a college man who passes on a cure for t lie common (except mine) cold? Dave's article, written by some girl, says to wrap a sock around your i.eck. . .Now, admittedly, if you do this with vigor, it will not <>nly cur*' your cold, but everything else that ails yon Seems it will be more successful if you use a sock worn, it says here., .by a healthy man (one that doesn't use Ban !on his feet) CfW'about three iia?.. The foot part absolutely must be in contact with the skjii.. The whole .thing is useless unless... for heaven's sake... a woman uses a man's sock and a man uses a woman's sock???? This is gettin. ridiculous, by now The thing says: If you have t runny no^e, you M rhinitis (I jjot a full case right now); If your nose and throat irritated (I got this, too) you got naso-pharyngitis; If yorf got a cough (Cough, Cough, Wheez and Sneeze) you got tracheitis; and if your cough goes into your chest (Oh, me) you got bronchitis. It also says that most colds will o4ear up if you call the doctor in about seven*1, days It also says most colds will clear up if you dbn't ill the "doctor in about seven days. I feel worse. Come' to think of it, I think I'll take my doc tor's advice and hang my hat on the bed post, get into bed, sip whiskey until I see two hats ..Oh, glorious seven days Thanks, Dave. Senator put that telegram in The Congressional Record. Then, however, he immedi ately lyjiowed it with another telegram signed by 2,(300 stu-j dents at Rrigham Young Uni versity, Tlve telegram, with all ?f its ? signatures, was DC feet long, and% Senator Bennett unrolled the telegram for all. Senators to $?? The Bt Igham V >ung students called on Sena tor Bennett to stick by hfe'gims iikl to contribute his opposition to the proposed repeal of 14(b). 'Wc cannot support any move ment," , the telegram from' the students said, "which may, in effect, depriV" th. indiviflu.kl citizen of the freedom of ac quiring ^iinful employment free from -thev direct influence oil collective'. tjargainifif? thron&h la I ?or uniorVs, should he choose to do so." EVery independent j.tll taken on the question of repealing Section 14(b) has resulted In overwhelming approval of its not being repealed. It lias boijed down to a choice between what the people^ want and- what labor union bosses demand. It is interesting that President Johnson is demand ing that the Congress turn its back on the wishes of the peo ple Union pressure upon the President for the payment of Ins pojitit .ij debt must l>e very great indeed.
