Laney Departure
Well, Nowl
It’s a pretty fair distance between
North Carolina and Montana yet fhe
gap was bridged 'Tuesday when Sena
tor Mike Mansfield, ma.iority leader,
tagged North Carolina’-s former Govern
or Terry Sanford as an acceptable presi
dential candidate, national rather than
regional in scope.
The timing was appropriate, too,
coinciding with opening of Sanford-for-
President headquarters in the national
capitol.
Governor Sanford has informed;
“We are now picking up support from
delegates in other states and I exneet to
ente" a primary outside the South.”
Those who said initially the former
North Carolina Governor is barking at
the moon simply don’t understand the
inter-working of convention polities.
'The Republican convention o'’ 1940
is a case in point. Governor Tom Drwcv
raced ahead but not nuite far enou.eh
to win. Then Senator Robert Taft raced
ahead, but not, far enough to win.
Who ever heard of Wendell W'ilkie?
But Mr. Wilkie was the nominee.
X A cordial welcome to Rcvl Robert
E. Allen, newly arrived pastor of St.
UfaUhew’s iUutheran church who will be
installed Sunday.
On Wisconsin!
Resignation of Joe M. Laney as di
rector of Kings Mountain Redevelop
ment Commission, is much regretted by
the members of the commission which
Mr. Laney served directly, and to the
many friends Mr. Laney has made dur
ing the going-on four years he has been
in Kings Mountain.
When the ex-combat Marine Lieu
tenant (World War II, Korea, V'ietnam)
accepted the job as firat commission di
rector, he knew the task would not be
an easy one. In a mass venture involv
ing people’s pocketbooks, it is quite nat
ural that community plans will find
some at variance.
Col. Laney kept his cool.
At one public hearing, he was be
ing rather roundly villified Including
some character insinuations which were
as invalid as they were inapropos. Mr.
Laney’s neck reddened, but liis voice re
tained its calm and even good humor. It
would have been impossible for a lesser
man.
Mr. Laney should bo proud of the
commission’s accomplishments during
his tenure as director.
Two major projects, the $2 million
-central business district r.edevelMmgnt
■project, and the $3 Cansler strleLur'L
ban redevelopment project, were ap
proved and grant reservations made by
the Department of Housing and Urban
Development.
He would have been happier had
the CBD project moved faster. Yet it
has and is moving and shortly the first
acquisition for rebuilding will be offered
for sale.
The Cansler street project is a hap
py one. It is on the verge of final ap
proval, a project w-hich will see removal
of some 189 sub-standard to derelict
houses. Perhaps most important: the
project has “consumer acceptance”.
Mr. Laney says, quite honestly, “1
hate to leave. I like the people and I
like the climate.”
As a father of three, ho reaso.ns he
cannot ignore the ecoonmic opportunity
offered by the Greenville. North Caro
lina, situation, where he will do a double
tandem jolb, director of the Greenville
Redevelopment Commission and direc
tor of the 5(X)-unit Greenville Public
Housing Authority.
In Greenville, Mr. Laney will be
succeeding a veteran director who is
iietirlng.
Mr. Laney has rendered good serv
ice in Kings Mountain.
He has demonstrated honesty and
forthrightness in a job that would have
found liesser men failing these tests.
The results of the Wisconsin presi
dential primary are in and considerable
re-assessing of what’s in store for Dem
ocrats at tlie Miami national conv'ontion
is being done.
Items;
Senator George McGovern, of South
Dakota, won a handsome plurality and
can justifiably boast that his campaign
is off the ground.
Governor George Wallace, of Ala
bama, who edged Senator Hubert Hum
phrey, of Minnesota, for runner-up can
point with pride to the fact he is more
than a regional candidate.
Senator Humphrey would have been
happier to place higher. However, none
is writing off the 1968 Democratic stand
ard-bearer. Not only did he bring off 21
percent of the vote (one percent less
than that of Governor Wallace), but he
collected 13 delegates while Mr. Wal
lace collected none.
It vv-as a sad day for pauvre Senator
Edmund Muskie, of Maine. His fourth
place was weak and, after two years of
camEtaigniog, . his eashronrlYand is ex
hausted aiid hix cash flow appears to be
drying up. Many a political operative
and man-in-the-street is saying, “Muskie
has had it.”
When Mayor John Lindsay, of New
York, switched allegiance from the Re
publican party to the Democrats, with
overtones that he would seek the Demo
cratic nom.ination for the presidency, a
precinct news commentator remarked
that, merely because one embraced the
faith, ho did not become Pope overiiight.
This truism was not lost on Mayor Lind
say, who, after the Wisconsin business,
withdrew from the hustings and will re
turn to running, or running at, his pain
ful chore as m.ayor of his pain-ridden
city.
Senator Henry Jackson, of Wash
ington, v on one percentage point less
votes than Mayor Lindsay, is not figur
ed to be a “heavy” for the nomination,
but is not yet written off.
There’s still a deal of primary do
ings between now and Miami, with next
ports of call in Pennsylvania and Massa
chusetts.
One factor in
should be weighed.
Wisconsin voting
Wisconsin permits cross - voting,
with Republicans permitted to vote in
Democratic primaries and vice versa.
With no visible contest on the GOP
side (President Nixon won 97 percent
of the GOP vote), many Republicans a-
vailed themselves the opportunity to
play in their friendly enemy’s backyard.
Fridoy Last Day
Time: 4:59 p.m. Friday.
Place: Cleveland County Ccurt-
house.
Office: Elections board.
Deadline: Last minute to register
for the May 6 primaries.
Under the permanent voter registra
tion set-up, operative in Clev-eland Coun
ty for the first time, unregistered citi
zens who wish to vote should make the
trek to the elections board office Thurs
day or Friday.
Lady in charge: Mrs. Brenda Ham
ilton, clerk to the county elections
board.
Congratulations to Mrs. Hayivood
E. Lynch, elected president of the Kings
Mountain Woman’s Club. Congratula
tions, too, to Mrs. W. T. Weir, retiring
president for more than traditional “job
well done”.
A best bow to Gary Nolen, Gaston
