Dear Editor
A bevy of bravos to you, Mr. Edi-
tor. Your February 24 answer is the
actual winner! In the columns of
“The Country Editor” you have ex-
pressed so aptly the nucleus of tf»c
public world of tlie late President
Kennedy — tire man and the symbol.
Your very timely thoughts have said
more in a few words than a combi-
nation of all published periodicals
•oh the subject of President Kennedy
that have come this reader’s way.
Add me to the lengthy list of those
who wish The Tulia Herald to be a
daily edition. . .that would multi-
ply our opportunities to stay alert on
topics and ideals from its editor’s
well - chosen words, conveying his
informed, refreshingly mature up -
proach.
Very sincerely,

Dear Editor
First off I must explain something
to you! All radios that 1 have ever
seen have a control knob. This knob
is to turn the radio off and on, there-
fore if you don’t like the music, turn
it OFF!
Ernest Tubb (not Tubbs as you
had printed) is a wonderful singer and
a number one guy In the popularity
field. His looks aren't any worse thin
a lot oi other people’s including some
in Tulia.
You may not like country and west-
ern music but it was here before you
and I am sure it will remain long af-
ter you leave!
You said “we detest’’ amateurs in
church music! Well I wish you would
clarify who, we are. Have you read
your Bible recently. If so you will re-
call Psalms, Chapter 96, Verse 1.
Everyone that is a true Christian
loves to hear a good religious song
whether it is being sung by profes-
sionals or by a group who haw
never had any training. If someone
loves God tlien he will sing praises
unto Him even if he "can't carry
a tune in a bucket”.
From your article it was hard to
tell what kind ot music you like but
1 believe you favor .opera. Well at
least in country, western, and re -
iigious you can understand what they
are saying, where in opera you can-
not.
You probably won't print this but
I wanted you to know how I and
many others felt about your article
“Our Music and Our Imago”,
Sincerely,
Dear Editor

A group, who called themselves
“Socialist Scholars”, had a two-day
conference at Columbia U. recently’
to discuss a problem tlvey have. It
was described best by the principal
speaker, a Marxist, Herbert Apthe-
ker: “The problem, is iiow do we
move toward radlcnlizntlon of A -
merica?”
.He’ added,. “Revolutionists, to be
effective, cannot be pacifists.” How
best, then, to upset the American
Way, how best to disrupt present pat-
terns of society’, how test to dis-
place free enterprise, how best to
depose the existing system of gov-
ernment? As a clue to the answer
Apthokcr exclaimed, “Of course,
Watts was glorious!”
Some believe, according to their
talent, that assassination is an an-
swer; it deposes government. Others
believe that electric power interrupt-
ion is tlx; answer; it displaces free
enterprise, ami halts all business,
social, and family activity.
Some believe the answer lies in
making anti - American speeches, in
loud criticism of the U. S. purpose
in Viet Nam, in offers of blood to
Viet Cong, and in displays of their
flag in America. These encourage
Asiatic Marxists to prolong a slog-
ging guerrilla war, which develops
an atmosphere of war in America,
which in turn opens the way for
controls and rationing. This upsets
America. ' ” ’
' The counter answers cm come oNy
from the Legislative Wikfl of the
existing system erf gbverisiteht; 1#
the elected representative* facing op
to a problem they have: how best to
PREVENT tlx; radlcalizatkm ot A -
merica?

for sometime to come.
News has a way of being one-' sided. This week"
we may have enough top news for three front
pages. Next week, we may have to scrape the barrel
to make up even one front page — even with several
large pictures. It’s the same way ;\vith dailies, also
radio and television programs.
pjUT WE hU&TKCT that tliis Kennedy emphasis
D was due more to a desire of- the Kennedy
haters to play down Robert Kennedy', to make him
appear as “pink” as possible without treading too close
to libel.
We don’t recall comparable news coverage when
he made a very great contribution .to the settlement
of the recent strike of the transport union in New
York.
%JkftHILE WE’RE on the subject, WHEN have we
Ww seen a story' in the Amarillo paper giving
even a modicum of credit to Senator Yarborough?
Almost weekly tix; ’Amarillo paper carries Senator
Tower’s weekly news letter on its editorial page.
They even run the little line drawing of his head,
giving him equal billing with their syndicated right-
wing columnists Yet Yarborough 1ms been complete-
ly ignored by’ tlx; Amarillo paper. . .and being ig-
nored is quite a potent weapon Merely pretending
that no such person exists as the senior Senator
from .Texas is quite effective. The chief political
value that comes from being an incumbent is the
publicity received in the news columns, news that
can’t be suppressed or ignored by any reputable
news medium..
Tlx; Amarillo News know's’"that if it can cause
newcomers to the state as well as youth approach-
ing adulthood to say “Who’s he?” when the name of
Ralph Yarborough is mentioned,- it has been as ef-
fective .as .when il employs, tlx; ".Big Lie" treatment
which it drags'"otit etfery'six'years.
Many .times the Whittenburg papers have been
caught red - handed deleting Yarborough’s name
from an AP or UPI now’s story. It did this in con-
nection with the Alibates quarry project, also the
Canadian River Dam project. Even though Yarbo-
rough was one of the first to suggest both projects
. . . at a time when the Amarillo.paper was calling
the Canadian River project "another step” in' that
"long, long road to socialism”. . j .he has not been
given due credit in this area.
IT’S VIRTUALLY the same on Amarillo television
| new’s programs. Hardly a day goes by' that Scna-
cal concurrence by the two rival farm organizations
which divide along political lines in Texas.
Rogers has strong support from the gas users
boys, composed of both Farm Bureau and Farmers
Union members. However, he seems to be in the dog
house with the electric co-ops.
A LTROVGI ROTH Rogers and Hightower are
Baptists, Hightower probably will have great-
er appeal to those Baptists who are influenced by
such things due to his activity in Baptist brother-
hood activities. Personally, we think that some of
tliese "issues” which used to play quite a role are
almost dead issues. Not only are the masses of Bap-
tists, Church of Christ people, Catholics and all the
others influenced by more weighty issues but they
seem to resent being pressured by their pastors or
church leaders.
Persons who oppose .Rogers because of his “con-
servatism" might do more harm to Rogers if. High-
tower had tlx; “liberal" label which he does not. So
it is with those who might oppose Hightower because
of conservatism. They may figure that Rogers is no
more liberal.
tWNKX THE RE-MSTRICTING proposal came
yfyf up, there were those who advocated making
it possible for all incumbents to keep their places
and not have to run against each other. The city
areas, lacking proper representation since their grow-
th, would have been given additional senalprs.
The Amarillo paper favored this proposal and
has not forgiven Hightower for opposing it. Most in-
cumbents, all but five, if we are not mistaken, favor-
ed the proposal which lost.
The third man, James Ray, is not so wellknown
and probably at best will do no more than cause a
run-off. He is a clean-eut young man and ideological-
ly seems to be a follower of "the old Johnson” back
when LBJ and the Texas liberals were al odds. He
believes Jolin Coonally to be the greatest governor the
state has ever; had and doesn’t care who knows it.
He attempts to bo a Democrat "without prefix”
which is a good ambition but difficult to achieve.
£ EYEKAL DAT’S ago Yarborough’s name was
mentioned in connection with a proposal quite
popular in some parts of the country but not so pop-
ular out here in West Texas where “everybody's out
of step but us.”
The Amarillo paper gave the story a six - column
head and put it at the top of page three. . .the
place usually reserved for something the paper
want’s everybody to read, such as a Republican an-
nouncing for commissioner or a Bircher coming to
Amarillo for a speech Anything which might put
Yarborough in a favorable light in this area is con-
viently ignored. . .yet anything which might be
derogatory to him is shouted from the house top!
Is this fair? 1
By coincidence, the same week this story was
published, Yarborough was named "Man of the Year"
by the National Association of State Directors of Vet-
erans’ Affairs. Senator Edward Kennedy was speak-
er at the dinner and paid high tribute to the senior
Senator from Texas. Senator Kennedy even repeated
his tribute to Yarborough on the floor of the Senate
. . .but not even a whisper of this honor was
heard in the Amarillo paper!
ME OLD FORMULA for victory has been to find
| - enough special interest groups whose total vote
could insure victory, support them wholeheartedly
and make them happy by alienating their enemies,
the minority of special interest groups. This was the
Allan Shivers formula which worked very well.
Then there is another formula which has sonic -
times worked. . be all tilings to all people, con-
sider every man a potential supporter.
This worked belter before the day of television,
as Barry Golchvator learned when he had one speech
for the South and another for the North.
aa LI, THREE CANDIDATES in this state senator-
ial race are clean cut and honest, we believe.
Their characters or integrity will not be issues in our
opinion. For this we are thankful.
Each one is faced with the impossible problem of
pleasing us all.
I very much appreciate the efforts
of tile NBC television network in con-
tinuing to give broadcasts of tix: Sen-
ate Foreign Relations Committee’s
question-and-answer programs since
CBS discontinued them.
Certainly, many appear to feel that
so much has been gained that if all
the networks discontinue such educa-
m e n t at its own expense should
arrange somehow lo continue them.
I recently heard one lifelong Re-
publican — who had always previous-
ly said over the past couple of de-
cades that she never read nor listen-
ed to news and views on foreign
affairs because she didn’t understand
anything about them — say that she
listened intently to the Committee's
broadcasts now and felt they were
wonderfully informative and worth-
while. And that they had definitely
increased both her interest In ana
her understanding of tlx: current daily
news from abroad
• I agree w i t h columnist Roscoe
Drummond that “the transaction ol
the public business (by Congress) be-
longs .to the public and tlie more
widely it can be viewed, the better
for the nation.” Why have improved
means of communication If wc do not
use them adequately?
It has been said that the late Sen-
ator Joseph McCarthy was finished
when exposed to television. _
Had sonic of his devoted imitators
also been relentlessly exposed to
question-and-answer programs over
TV, they, too, would no doubt long
ago have been consigned 'to the trash
barrel.
Our nation’s citizens and govern-
ment officials would then have been
spared the following long period of
nightmarish, hysterical anti - com-
munism that has practically preclud-
ed any rational, objective discussion
in the USA oi many ot today’s isr
sues facing both our country and
the world at large. Particularly, as
they pertain to the Communists and
communism.
•And who knows? President Ken -
nedy might well have been.alive to -
day had our country earlier made
better use of our communications
media and thus cleared the air of
tlx; needless hate, fear and suspicion
that was rampant at that time.
We are glad that President John-
son apparently indicates no intention
now of Irving to discourage discus-
sions as to foreign policy even though
his own head just may take a knuckle-
rapping because ot them.
•I recall that an aged friend — a
lifelong Democrat and an admitted-
ly biased one — who once heard and
saw Republican Senator Williams of
Delaware comment over TV regard -
ing blanket charges made against
our legislators to the effect that they
were evil, crooked, or otherwise un-
fit for public office The Senator said
the legislators were just a cross -
section of citizens at large — no bet-
ter and no worse than the general
Tim ol them.
The. old friend was impressed by
the facial expression, the evident sin-
cerity and integrity ot Senator Wil-
liams, .and liked him instantly. He
said lie was honestly glad to learn
that lie didn’t dislike a person simply
because he chanced to be on the op-
posite side of the political fence He

candidate to-visit.Tulia this year. As Tommy Thomp-
son said, if Toxins vote on the basis of looks, lie is
a winner. . .apd doubly so alter one sees his
wife a good stand-in for Dorothy Malone of Peyton
Place.
tor Tower isn’t quoted after he makes some earth-
shaking observation as "We need to stop Commun-
ism In Asia" or “Let us win in Vietnam instead of
fooling around.”
We have also noted Senator Tower making an-
nouncements of certain pork-barrel projects awarded
to Texas. How ridiculous can one get?
We don’t recall hearing Yarborough’s name from
Amarillo since the $50,000 lie invented by the Dallas
News and peddled by the Whittenburg papers in Ama-
rillo and Lubbock.
HE TEXAS POLITICAL scene is rather drab this
| year There will be few interesting contests in
the spring primaries. Closest to home will be the
state senatorial race between Andy Rogers and Jack
Hightower, both of whom are incumbents, and James
Ray of Abernathy.
Rogers and Hightower have been the victims of
re - districting. Both are now serving districts which
have been partially combined. Both now find them-
selves in the same district. Ray is a former adminis-
trative assistant for Congressman George Mahon.
..' It’s difficult to predict what may happen on the
basis of past elections. Neither will have any parti-
cular advantage from being an incumbent.
Some predict that tlie old districts will tend to
hold on to their present senator.
Wichita Falls, now in.our district, is now served
l>y Hightower, and the city has 40 per cent of the
"vote. However, a bloc of • West t Texas counties in
Rogers’ old territory has approximately the same
strength.

_ five label. Hightower is listed;).,with the. I960
vintage of Texas conservatism.”
Rogers was considered a "liberal", whatever that
means, when he first ran against Harold LaFont in
the early 1950s. He supported Ralph Yarborough for
governor in 1954 but supported Price Daniel in 1956.
His voting record has been as much conservative tix
liberal. He won an overwhelming victory in 1956
Muleshoe and Wellington except Hale. The issue in
this election was more deep seated than "liberal”
and “conservative” causes.
Rogers has always had both strong Farm Bureau
and Farmers Union support,; due more to the .fact.
toat neither had any other' place to go than to pona-
aw(JK CHIEF CRITERION for supporting or not
supporting candidates this year is their record
for supporting tlie President. Texas is having her one
and perhaps only chance lo occupy the White House.
The least we can do it to support the President at a
time when lie desiieralely needs our support. Anybody
could afford to support the Democrats in 196-1 when
LBJ was chalking up his record win. The President
needs our support much more in 1966 when labor is
cussing him for not getting 14-b knocked out and not
getting the minimum wage hiked. Meanwhile some
Texas politicians running on the Democratic ticket
arc Democrats when they go to Washington, but when
they get back to Texas these candidates knife the Pres-
ident in the back “for selling out to labor!”
Like Pe’ler, when these pseudo Democratic candi-
dates get back to Texas and among their conservative
backers, they say with one accord, “Behold, I never
knew him!”
rf these candidates can’t go along with their party
arid its leader, if they are more in accord wiith tlie
GOP and Goldwatcr than Johnson, wonderful! That is
their right! But why can't they be lionest enough to
run on the Republican ticket? The Republicans are
seeking desperately to make this a 2-parly state ,and
they could run effective races as Republicans since
the Republicans now have primaries and lots of Texas
oil money.
It a man can’t be honest enough to nm on the ticket
which he supports in his heart, . how can we expect him
to be honest when he gets .to Austin or Washington?
'Personally, wc'rc going to scratch every name on
the ballot that runs on an antiJohnson platform this
year.
Our first question to all political callers this year
iis going to be, “Can you support the President?”
