He Made Sense
The personable Richard Nixon spoke to about 3,000
persons Wednesday, including many students.
Nixon, with his big grin and his friendly manner, re
turned to the state which gave him the largest majority
In the 1960 election, to campaign for state candidates
and Barry Goldwater.
Something about Nixon's approach there is that could
convince a Nebraskan to vote for the ousted Khrushchev
if he felt compelled to ask it.
He spoke sensibly and reasonably to the farmers con
cerning the farm problem, to the older persons concern
ing social security.
He spoke for a firm stand in foreign policy. At a press
conference preceding the public appearance, the former
Vice President said, "With Khrushchev we had a policy
based on his personality. Now that he is gone, we have
no policy at all." He again called for a policy of firmness.
The man made sense. He called on the people of Ne
braska to support Goldwater. Certainly no one there could
ignore his call.

Many times in the 1 a s t
three years I have secretly
wished that Student Coun
cil would unanimously vote
to abolish itself; at times
its pranks, rehearsed gun
ning and indiscreet blun
ders were more than I could
take.
This year, to me, is a year
of probation for Council
our august body of politici
ans should have a chance
to reorganize themselves
without the petty criticisms
of those who know little
about the group and its du
ties. Therefore, I now remove
my headpiece to our Stu
dent Council in deep grati
tude. I really needed that
six solid hours of laughter
they afforded me with the
"Case of the Burned Bal
lots," also known as "Some
body Stop that Janitor!"
Even today, three full
days after I first heard how
the student opinion commit
tee put two thousand ballots
in a wastebasket marked
"SAVE" (which was
promptly burned by the
ever duty-conscious janitor)
1 shriek with uncontrollable
laughter. Thank you, Coun
cil. The only unfortunate as
pect of the entire situation
was that 700 of these mis
erable ballots were saved
to be read. It was lament
able that, of the 700, 34.7
per cent favored three-day-per-week
publication.
Deliver me from those
and help me find more of
the 31.1 per cent who are
clear thinking enough to see
the kind cf campus paper
this Universtiy deserves
and the only way to obtain
it.

Whose woods these are I think I know;
Or at least our Social Chairman does.
He will not see me stopping here;
Because this isn't registered.
My little horse must think it queer;
That coolers aren't more sturdy.
Between the woods and frozen lake;
There's bound to be an opener.
He gives his harness bells a shake;
I didn't expect to see her out here.
The only other sound's the sweep;
Of wheat jeans and sticker bushes.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep;
We've gotta come out here again.
And miles to go before I sleep;
But you better drive.

are now paying $2 each year
for a paper that is not print

rights.
Thirteen thousand s t u
dents should demand not a
three day paper but a five
day paper.
these thirteen thousand
students should be willing to
pay $1 more per year to get
this paper.
M i s s Smithberger ex
plained in her edtiorial yes
terday how this should" be
done. I wonder if anyone
cares enough to overrule
the opinion of 34.7 per cent
of 700 students?
At the present time we
have one senior staff writer
and four junior staff wri
ters. Five people students,
just like yourselves, trying
to get an education w h o
are expected to keep track
of the activities of 13,000.
Each week they g've up
from 15 to 25 hours of their
time and each month they
receive a token payment of
$17.50 for their services.
We should have ten wri
ters instead of five. We
should have a feature editor
and a night news editor (to
watch for typographical er
rors.) We should have better
photography equipment and
funds to print five days a
week a good paper five
days a week instead of a
four-day-a-week ad sheet.
The difference between
34.7 per cent and 31.1 per
cent is not enough to over
rule my strong desire for
the tuition raise. Perhaps if
the 2,000 lost ballots were
counted the two nearly iden
tical percentages would be
reversed.
Help me, somebody! Help,
Regents! Help, students!
Give the students the paper
they deserve.

On A Snowy Evening
The PoBitDccoD
Republican
By George Duranskc
During a Presidential
campaign the spotlight al
ways is focused on the two
men in contention for the
highest office of the land.
Often the men running for
the job of vice president
are so completely over
shadowed that the public
isn't given an opportunity
to judge them.
This seems to be the case
this year.
Last November the U.S.
witnessed the ascendancy
of the vice president to the
Presidency and those tragic
events stressed the need for
careful selection of vice pre
sidential candidates.
The Republican vice pre
sidential candidate is Wil
liam Miller. Mr. Miller is
50 years old and a gradu
ate of Albany Law School.
He participated in Army In
telligence, serving as prose
cutor at Nazi War Crime
Trials in Nuremberg, Ger
many. Mr. Miller's activities as
an outstanding politician are
less known but equally im
pressive. Bill Miller was elected
District Attorney for Niag
are County, N.Y., in 1948,
and in 1950 was elected to
the House of Representa
tives where he served in
each succeeding Congress as
a member of the Judiciary
Committee Chairman.
In 1961 he was elected
chairman of the Republican
National Committee.
Bill Miller stands with
Barry Goldwater on the
sound principles of govern
ment. The Democratic candi
date, Senator Humphrey,
and his background should
also be made known to the
people of the United States.
There are several sides to
his views.
The first side consists of
the views he expresses in
Johnson. The second side
consists of the views he
doesn't express during the
campaign and the third, the
expressed views of the
Americans for Democratic
Action, which we must as
sume Senator Humphrey
subscribes to since he is
listed as a charter member
and vice chairman of ADA.
The ADA has stated, '.'The
U.S. should undertake as
soon as possible a humani
tarian program to make
surplus food available to re
live famine in (Red) China."
Other statements have
urged the U.S. to unilater
ally disarm, remove the
Connally reservation to the
World Court and abolish the
Attorney General's list of
subversive organizations.
This Senator Humphrey
accepts through association.
Strange it is that the
Democrats dropped their
charges of extremism after
Humphrey's nomination.
Before closing I would
like to point out that last
week Mr. Cherny stated
that Goldwater had voted
against strengthening social
security.
Well, Democrats, if t h e
only way to strengthen a
governmental function is to
burden the people of the
U.S. with more social se
curity tax, then we must
plead guilty.
But since the avowed pur
pose in Senator Goldwater's
vote was to help limit un
necessary Federal Govern
ment expansion then the
plea is innocent.

I recently received a let
ter from a friend attending
the University of California
at Berkeley, where, as some
may know, there has been
much commotion lately.
There has been picketing
and demonstrations protest
ing the Administration's at
tempts to limit political ac
tivity on University prop
erty. For instance, the collec
tion of money for civil
rights workers in the South
was forbidden, as are on
campus demonstrations or
rallies.
He says there is a pos
sibility of mass expulsion if
the agitating students
(numbering several thou
sand, at least) don't return
to their normal, peaceful
ways of impersonating Je
sus, organizing escapades
to Cuba, going barefoot to
class and the like.
Many of the powerful po
litical groups on campus
ranging from Youth for
Goldwater to Young Social
ist Alliance (good heav
ens') have banded together
on this important issue,
dropping national politics
from stage center for an in
stant to pursue a question
which they feel is much
more important to their
status as students and
citizens.
Whether they are right or
not is not for me to ex
pound upon here . . . The
point is that here is a group
of students who have real
ized their power and priv
ileges as young citizens.
They have been confronted
with a situation that con
tests these rights, and now
they have taken decisive
steps in protest.
How about our campus?
I doubt if there has ever
been a time when students

from "all walks of campus
life" have worked together
for something. In fact, the
only campus "organiza
tions" which have ever
dared criticize anything are
Jim Moore and Palladian
Society, the results of which
speak for themselves.
I don't think students ac
tually realize that in them
rests the power to do some
thing constructive. The ne
bulous image of the "activi

campus politics and, there
fore, all campus reform, ex
ists only because students
allow it to.
There are many issues on
campus which are passed
over because no one can
conceive of himself doing
anything about it. This may
account for so many peo
ple delightfully terming this
campus, or the whole state
for that matter, as "apathet
ic." This does not have to be
if students would realize
that individual grumbling is
not the way to get anything
accomplished.

democratic
By Bob Cherny
In announcing his choice
for the vice presidential
nomination, Lyndon B.
Johnson referred to Hubert
Humphrey as the man "best
qualified to assume the of
fice of President should that
day come."
His record bears out
this analysis. He graduated
from the University of Min
nesota magna cum laude
and Phi Beta Kappa.
Humphrey's first elected
office was that of mayor of
Minneapolis.
As mayor, Humphrey's
record was indeed an im
pressive one. It might well
be reviewed by those today
who complain of crime in
creases and violence in the
streets.
During his administration,
gambling houses and broth
els were closed down. He re
organized city law enforce
ment and administrative
agencies to eliminate graft
and corruption in govern
ment. He improved housing
and social welfare p r o
grams. In 1947, Humphrey helped
to organize the Americans
for Democratic Action, a lib
eral, anti-Communist group.
He served as national chair
man in 1949-1950, and has
served as national vice
chairman since 1950.
Humphrey's dedicaton to
true liberalism and his op
position to extremisn of the
left was vividly demon
strated in 1944 to 1948 when
he engaged in a successful
Many Gripes
To the Editor:
There are many things on
this campus that are per
ennial gripes. People gripe
about dorm food, student
apathy and the Daily Ne
braskan, but never do any
thing to cure these ptrob
lems. This is my fifth year at
the University and this is
the first time I have ever
had reason to complain
about the Daily Nebraskan.
I mean to do something
about it.
The editor of a student
newspaper should be a per
son who is highly respected
on the campus. If the edi
tor has lost the respect of
the student body, then the
paper itself is useless.
As a student I expect from
my university's newspaper
fair and accurate coverage
of all campus activities.
I realize that certain
types of student organiza
tions deserve and should
receive more coverage than
others. However, when two
groups are alike but op
posed in viewpoint, no mat
ter what the personal be
liefs of the editor, these two
groups should receive the
same coverage.
I expect from my univer
sity's newspaper the truth,
an unbiased report and no
misrepresentation. If there
is a mistake in the paper,
a major mistake, how are
we to know what is truth
and what is mistake?

fight to oust Communists
and other extreme left-wing
elements from the Demo
cratic Farm-Labor Party in
Minnesota.
Considered one of the
most liberal men in the Sen
ate, Humphrey has consis
tently supported and spon
sored legislation on civil
rights, medicare, school aid
and urbai renewal.
Some of Humphrey's most
outstanding Senate efforts
have been in the field of
disarmament and arms con
trol. The 1961 bill creating
the U.S. Arms Control and
Disarmament Agency was
the direct outgrowth of an
original Humphrey propos
al. Humphrey played a maj
or role in Senate ratifica
tion of the 1963 Limited Nu
clear Test Ban Treaty.
Humphrey was personally
selected to serve as floor,
manager for the passage os
the 1964 Civil Rights Bill.
F'aced with this task, Hum
phrey showed unusual abil
ities at organizing Senate
liberals for the debate and
votes, demonstrating pati
ence and good humor when
more abrasive tactics might
have lost the day.
In contrast, we have the
GOP nominee for vice-president,
a man nominated, be
cause, in the temporary
spokesman's words, he
"drives Lyndon Johnson
nuts."
We have recently seen
how important it is for the
vice-president to be capable
of assuming the Presidency
with the shortest of notice.
We are indeed fortunate to
have had Lyndon Johnson
in that office.
We must be sure that the
team we select are both
capable of the highest office
in the land. And with this
in mind, we must vote Dem
ocratic on November 3rd.
