It is the fame old story Election time calls for the application of all the tricks in the book. It is the same old story: Election time calls for the application of all the tricks in the book. Some leaders in the South, taking excep tions to racial policies advanced by the pre sent administration, have ail but stuck their nose into the Republican tent. Now, it is cer tain they’ll smell the same scent they have so proudly turned their nor.es from in the De mocratic hierarchy It is possible that the racial issue will be appraised at its real worth, that there is some other sinister motive the leaders have ably shielded by pushing the racial issue in to the front. It is a sad day when an issue based in a minority group can bo twisted and distorted ro as to sway a majority, and which, in truth, is used to advance the cause of the privileg ed, leaving suspended the rights of both the minority and the majority. Approaching The S'nhlimc A wine merchant, advertising in one of the New York papers a shoi t thru ago. approach ed the sublime in his descriptions, leaving the average guy in a quandary as to the meaning of adjectives in the-English lan guage. He said his wines were: “flowery fresh ness,” and of "real distinction and breeding”. He said one vintage was a member of “an inspiring group". The wine merchant could have been talking about a young bride-elect when he used “flow rv freshness". But Ins next descriptive attempt could more appro priately inferred to a Jersey cow or a Hamp shire piggy. The next description could fit well a writer oi .scripture. The merchant did not stop there. He re ferred to other wines as. lovely, beautifully innocent, elegantly balanced! noble, less aristocratic, ethereal, enchanting, .service able, more attenuated, powerful yet extraor dinary soft, sound and unexacting, and ex tremely drinkable. Surely, the fellow was not thinking of the synthetics with the kick of a high-powered mule. I nansuvrablt* Speaker Sam Rayburn made an unanswer able plea to Southern governors to avoid bolts either to splinter parties or to the Re publican Party. In his address to the Southern Governors’ Conference ai Hot Springs, Ark.. Speaker Rayburn demolished the two principal argu ments and the chief excuse of the would-be bolters. The arguments are that the administra tions of Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry S. Truman have been harmful to the country as a whole and that they have been par ticularly harmful to the South as a region. The excuse is that the would-be bolters are not fighting the government or the Demo cratic Party, but are making their fight sole ly against Harry S. Truman as an individual and a “new trend" in the Democratic Party. Speaker Rayburn disposed of the argu ments and the excuse briefly but effective ly. “Whether you love or hate President Tru man. he is President of the United States and will be until January, 1953,” Mr. Rayburn told the governors. “He is our leader. lie is the voice of America, or America has no voice He is the leader of the democratic world—or the democratic world has no lead That is both statesmanship and sound eommonsense. And he was equally effective in disposing of the argument that Roosevelt and Truman have ruined the country and destroyed private enterprise. He pointed out that the national income has grown from 39 billion dollars in 1932 to 230 billion in 1950 and is still rising and that in the same period farm income went from less than three bil lion dollars to 18 billion. As for corporations, they exchanged a net loss of $8,400,000,000 in 1982 for net profits after taxes in 1950 of $22,800,000,000. It is true that in the interim the purchasing power of the dollar has fall en and tuxes have been increased, but nei ther movement has been in a propoi tuon ev en approachnjr the increase in national in i com> As to the effort upon the South. Mr. nay burn pointed out that the South has always prospered both economically and politically under Democratic administrations and has suffered under Republican rule. On result ot a successful bolt, he pointed out, would be that “every .Southern man who holds a resuonsible place in Congress will lose his position.” As a matter of fact. Southerners have had a dominating role in Congress since 1933. Some of them have tried to eat their cake and have it too, by seeking to model the De mocratic Party according to their own ideas into a slightly different replica of the Repub lican Party. They forget that whenever the voters have been given such a choice be tween a replica of the Republicans and the real thing, they have always chosen the orig inal apostles of Privilege, the Republicans. The best proof of the effectiveness of the Rayburn speech was the consternation it created among his opponents. The first re action came, appropriately, from the only Republican in the group, Governor Mc Keldin of Maryland, who stage d a childish “walkout,” declaring that the conference had been “turned into a political meeting.” If that is true, Mr. Rayburn certainly did not do the turning. The 1948 Dixiecrat move ment was launched at a meeting of the Southern governors in 1947 and before the Hot Springs meeting, it was proclaimed far and wide that the Hot Springs meeting would show a “solid anti-Truman front." Governor McKeldin was himself frankly po litical at Hie start of the session, urging that the boll take tin- form of votes for the Re ! publican nominee rather than a splinter party. The leaders of the “bolt” movement de cided that the time was not ripe and loftily ref list'd to discuss politics at the meeting. They changed tht minds quickly under the sting of the truth in Rayburn's remarks. Governor James F. Byrnes of South Car olina. previously noted for discretion, so far forgot himself as to make a personal attack upon Mr. Rayburn, accusing him of “bad taste," of putting party above prmieptes and of being untrue to the South. Certainly, Speaker Rayburn compares favorably with Governor Byrnes on all of these counts. This is the same James F. Byrnes who probably accepted more honors at the hands of the Democratic Party than any other man. Cur iously enough, he accepted most of them alter he had helped steer through the Con giess the New Deal system to which he new objects. He was appointed to the Supreme Court after he had supported the so-callf d court packing bill. He left the court to b ■ come “Assistant President” under Presidi sit Roosevelt after the latter had already es tablished a Fair Employment Practices Com mission. He sought and obtained an appoint ment from President Truman as Secretary of State after the later had committed him self to every opinion to which Governor Byrnes now objects except, possibly, the President’s present opinion of James F. Byrnes. Speaker Rayburn needs no defense as a statesman, as a Southerner or as a man of good taste. Certainly, the last two people' to invite a comparison of his record on those points with their own records are his two chief detractors, Governor Byrnes and Gov ernor Talmadge of Georgia. i Change ‘‘Eight l’. S. Employees Cited” read the first of a two-line head in the newspaper. Worn to a frazzle by the constant charges against government folks, we were reliev ed when the second line was taken in on second glance. It read, “For Special Achive ment.” The fact tnat eight U. S. Employees were cited for special achievement is hardly to be rated big news. The paper chose to "bury” it on the next to its last page of a thick edi tion. A short time before that the paper head lined on its front page charges, later proved without foundation, against a loyal govern ment worker. The front pages used to carry the McCarthy smears and ridiculous charg es that are insult to the intelligence of the people of this nation, would cover a large portion of this earth. But the noble work and achivements of the thousands who toil in government service go unnoticed, for the most part. CHURCF NEWS C HRISTIAN CHAPEL Bible school at It). 11. L.
