Purge
By HUGH STEVENS
DTH Co-Editor
Just three short months ago, many vet
eran political observers were predicting
a Barry Goldwater victory at North Ca
rolina's polls on Nov. 3.
They seemed to have some sound rea
sons for. their thinking the Democratic
Party had been, badly split by two bitter,
lengthy gubernatorial primary fights, the
passage of the Civil Rights Bill apparent
ly forecast a white backlash of large pro
portions, and the Republicans were pour
ing money and time into their campaign
at an unheard of pace.
?As the campaign continued, however,
the forecasts shifted, and by the end of
September North Carolina was rated a
toss-up. Later, private polls taken by
the Democratic Party indicated a narrow
Johnson victory in the state, but Repub
licans said otherwise. Eastern North Ca
rolina's farmers, they reasoned, were "fed
up" on civil rights, and defections there
plus a traditional Republican vote in the
populous Piedmont would give the state
to the GOP for the first time since 1923.
As it turned out, of course, both the
Democrats and the Republicans were
wrong. Goldwater lost the state, not by
a slim margin, but by 174,000 votes a
56.1 per cent landslide for the President.
Furthermore, the Democratic tidal wave
carried in Democratic Governor Dan K.
Moore and Lt. Gov. Robert Scott; a Gen
eral Assembly in which the Republicans
lost seven of the 21 House seats held in
1963 and one of two Senate seats; and
hundreds of lesser; Democratic officials,
right down to county commissioners, sher
iffs and constables. v
"In addition, North Carolina's nine Dem
ocratic congressmen were returned to of- '
f ice, though two of them relied on the .
JoKnson sweep to. help them f squeak
through. . . . .

. cast. . . ." "
In the Fifth District, incumbent Ralph
Scott trailed Republican W. A. . (Nab)
Armfield in early returns, but Forsyth
County's. vote sent him back to Washing
ton. .' .
" East Stays Democratic
A quick glance at the tabulated returns
shows the reason for the Republican
thrashing. Not only did the East remain
in the Democratic column, but wholesale
vote switching in the often-Republican
Piedmont snowed under Goldwater and
the entire GOP ticket.
Ladyhugs, Gas, A Hog And A Half;
All In A Bay's Purchase For UNC
By KERRY SITE
DTH Staff Writer
If all the toilet paper used at
UNC in a year year were laid
end to end, 'it would stretch 17,
719 miles three-fifths of the way
around , the world.
' This is just one statistic which
shows what a tremendous busi
ness venture the University of
North Carolina is.
"We probably purchase the
largest variety of materials of
any school in the world," said
Jon S. Harder, university direc
tor of purchasing. ,
The UNC shopping list during
the course of a year might in
clude: . ,
3000 gallons of wall paint
300 mattresses, (a billion
lumps)
75 typewriters
10,000 gallons of gasoline
which are burned in 258 motor
vehicles,
and. 676 train carloads of
coal. . .
"The huge purchasing needs or
the University," said Harder
"are due to the fact that we own
and operate all the utilities in the
Chapel Hill area." .
The telephone company, tne
light and power systems, are all
in University hands and all their
purchasing, over $1 . million a
year, is done through the Univer
sity offices. '
"We use about 13 carloads of
coal, a week for the steam and
electric utilities," said Harder,
While "black belt" counties from Vir
ginia's Southside to Louisiana's Delta
country were reversing historic habits
and going for Goldwater, Eastern North
Carolina stuck to old Democratic ties,
with every county backing Johnson.
; In 51 counties from Durham to the sea,
Johnson got 310,122 votes to 187,610 for
Goldwater, a 61.9 per cent margin. This
was a reduction from the 66.5 per cent
vote pulled by John F. Kennedy in 1960,
but it was still a whopping margin in light
of racial tensions and the essential con
servatism of the farm vote.
Some sample counties are indicative of
the Johnson victory in the East. Hoke
County went almost 3 to 1 for Johnson,
2,242 to 780. The percentage in Gates
County, in the Northeastern corner of the
state, was even larger 1,702 to 555.
Martin County, the scene of Negro pro
tests and Ku Klux Klan activity in the
past year, showed little signs of a "Back
lash" in going for Johnson, 4,818 to 1,510.
Meanwhile, Johnson took normally Re
publican Mecklenburg County (Charlotte)
by 3,000 votes out of about 94,000 cast.
His victory apparently helped pull Dan
Moore through by about 140 votes, though
the county supported Gavin in 1960. John
son also carried some other Republican
counties in the Piedmont, including Guil
ford and Forsyth, but the 14 counties
which he lost were also centered in this
area.
Moving on into the mountains, both
Johnson and Moore piled up big margins
in such counties as Rutherford, Cleveland,
Burke and Cherokee. They also won
handily in Buncombe and Haywood Coun
ties, Moore's native area around Ashe
ville. ; Not surprisingly, the Negro vote was'
overwhelmingly for the! President. But
t.i
the i massive
'Moore, despite misgivings about his ties
with arch-segregationist I. Beverly Lake.
t :m Negro leaders estimated that about 88
per cent of the 150,000 Negro votes in the"
. state went to. Mopre, who led Gavin by
about 174,000 votes. President Johnson
racked up more than 95 per cent of the
Negro Piesidential tally.
; Tn many cases, the difference Moore's
and Johnson's totals in Negro precincts
was not the result of ticket-splitting but
of Negro refusals to vote for governor.
Moore ran about 1,000 votes behind John
son in five Negro precincts in Durham
. County, for instance, but the Goldwater
Gavin totals were identical.
Thirty-seven sample Negro precincts
; in 11 cities give Moore 34,636 votes to 5,
006 for Gavin.. Nine Winston-Salem Ne
gro precincts went for Moore, by 8,532 to
625. .
It alone costs $300,000 a yean
Harder says it is the largest
single purchase.
All University construction pro
jects under a cost of $16,500 are
handled by the University also.

was for three pounds of live lady-bugs.

ItVThat
Durn Sticker
Mess Again
WASHINGTON UP) The elec
tion, is over but there's still a
political job ahead for hundreds
of thousands of motorists remov
al of political stickers from their
automobiles.
The American Automobile As
sociation said Thursday the chore
can be either easy or tough.
It'll be easy, the AAA said, if
the sticker you put on had to be
moistened. Soap, hot water arid
a bit of elbow grease will take
care of. that type.. .
' The tough job will be if your
sticker was the dry-stick type,
especially if it has been in place
for quite a while. To remove that
type, the AAA says, some kind
of solvent may be necessary such
as acetone, alcohol or methyl
ethyl ketone.
And, if the. sticker is on the.
body of the car rather than a
bumper, your job is even rough
er. The AAA says the solvents
that will take off the sticker al
so remove the paint. ,

Barry 's Supporters
Are First On List
WASHINGTON (AP) Streng
thened House liberals planned
full steam ahead Thursday on a
projected party purge of South
ern Democratic Congressmen who
supported Republican Barry Gold
water. "We say the main point is that
Ciey walked out of the party,"
said Rep. John Blatnik, D-Minn.,
leader of the liberal group that
wants to run them out of the par
ty. "We do not feel that they have
the right to return to our Told,

Carson Stays
Neutral On
NSA Squabble
Don Carson, vice-president of
the Student Body, yesterday de
clined to take a positive stand
on UNC affiliation with the Na
tion Student Association.
In a statement released to the
Daily Tar Heel, Carson said NSA
could only be . justified "through
direct benefits to the campus,"
and refused to join either group
campaigning on the controversial
issue. .
The complete text:
r'The present controversy over
Carolina affiliation . with the . Na
tional Students Association merit
; the careful consideration - of the
en t, ire campus.
"During the campaign last
spring the issue of the 'Student
Boycott' was still fresh in all our
minds. At that time I promised
that I would never seek .to. use
any office I might be privileged
to hold to dictate my personal
. prejudices to the campus. That
is a promise I intend to keep.
"In deference to this principle,.
I refused to join forces with the
Student Government group which
has been campaigning day and
night for NSA, nor have I joined
the group which is so ardently
campaigning against NSA.
"However, the emotion-packed
cries which have come from both
sides compel me to offer this
comment. There is no doubt that
a non-political National Organi
zation of Students would have
tremendous potential, but the fact
that NSA does not even come
close to representing the views
of our campus is denied by no
one. If NSA is to be justified it
must be through direct benefits
to the campus.
"Over the past decade, and a
half our Student Government has
given thousands of dollars to
NSA. Each student, therefore, is
indirectly contributing. to the fin
ancial supoort of this organiza
tion, and must decide whether or
not NSA is benefitting him per
sonally and the canwus at large.
Th's is the issue at hand.
"No one can tell you whether
or not NSA is of benefit to you..
This you must decide for your
self."
UNCs affiliation with the na
tional student proup will be de
cided in the fall election next
Tuesdav. Student Lislature has
committed itself to follow the vote
cf the student body. -
Carson, a junior from Rocky
Mount, won the vie-presidency
on the Universitv Party ticket
last spring. Other UP leaders,
including St-ident Bodv President
Bob Soerman and Party Chair
man .Tpff Adams, are supporting
affiliation.
"This statement was released
?n response to the many reouests
T have had to take a stand." he
said. "I h"re this will clarify
my position."

Long Way For A Loser
Not everyone would drive 550 miles to vote for the loser.
Joe Renfro of Hendersonville did, after failing to apply
for an absentee -ballot
"I was expecting Johnson to win," Renfro said, "but I
just wouldn't have felt right had I not voted my personal
convictions."
He left Chapel Hill at 12:30p.m. Tuesday and arrived home
just before the polls closed.

committee assignments of party
membership," Blatnik said in a
telephone interview from Duluth,
Minn.
. Heading the liberals' purge list
are Reps. Jo'.in Bell Williams, D
Miss., and Albert W. Watson. D
S.C., who openly supported Gold
water's Presidential candidacy.
Watson is just entering on his
second term, but the veteran Wil
liams is second-ranking Demo
crat on the House Commercd
Committee, and is high on the
District of Columbia Committee.
If he is ousted from the party,
he would lose these choice as
signments, the product of long
party seniority.
Rep. Richard Boiling, D-Mo.,
another leader of the liberal
group, said, ."I think the really
important thing is for the ma
jority of the majority the ovcr:
whelming liberal Democratic ma
jority in the house to exercise
its power in about the same way
as the Republicans have. They
r.re very conservative, and con
servative Republicans go on the
important committees.
"If we want to function effec
tively in terms of what the elrc
torate said whether it was anti
Goldwater or pro-Johnson we
ere going to have to take com
mand of our side of our commit
tees," Boiling said in a Washing
ton interview. He added:
. "The party is for Medicare,
there is no doubt about that. It
is for a whole set of things. If
ve are blocked in the Rules Com
mittee,' it's the party's fault, not
the Republicans' fault.
"It is not enough to have a ma
jority on the floor of the House.
We have got to get the material
from the committees for that ma
jority to work on."
Health care for the aged under
Social Security was one of Presi
dent Johnson's top priorities in
the last session of Congress, but
it was bottled up in the conservative-oriented
House Ways and
Means Committee.
If the liberals succeed in purg
ing Williams and Watson when
the House convenes in January,
they will be setting a precedent.
Even in 1948," when many South
erners revolted against Harry S.
Truman and four Southern stales
were carried by states' rightcr
Strom Thurmond no one was
punished by the party after the
dust settle.!.
But both Blatnik and Boiling
said they feel the big increase in
moderate and liberal Democrats
in the House in Tuesday's elec
tion has given them the strength
to prevail this time, even if the
White House might oppose the
drastic step.
"If the President wants it, it
will happen," Boiling said. "If
he doesn't want it, there will still
be a fight."
Blatnik said, however, "I doubt
very much that there will be
much, if any, White House inter
ference." An important factor will be the
attitude of House Speaker John
W. McCormack, D-Mass. Four
years ago, when there was a sim
ilar fight involving the Rules
Committee, Blatnik said, McCor
mack favored the purge route for
dissident Southerners. McCorm
ack was majority leader thenl
The then speaker, the late Sam
Rayburn, opposed the purge and
it was avoided.
Blatnik said he had no word
from McCormack on how he may
stand now. ,
Blatnik also said he favors ex
lending the purge beyond Wil
liams nad Watson to any Demo
crat who may have openly sup
ported an unpledged slate of pres
idential electors, such as in Ala.'
