The Road To Anarchy
California’s Representative Craig Hosmer makes the
timely observation that the Civil Rights law "Is only one
of thousands of the laws of our land." and rails for vlg- j
orous enforcement of all laws, the protection of the i
lights of the majority as well as those of the minority. |
including protection against the acts of criminals.
*’I therefore call upon the President, the Attorney j
General and all the state and local law enforcement of-!

Mr. Hosmer In extended remarks | cdse,.

Changes In Mostow
Recent high level personnel shifts In Moscow seem
significant. This is especially true of the resignation of
Leonid Brezhnev as Soviet President, and the naming
of Anastas Mikoyan to succeed him.
Brezhnev is only 57; Nikata Khrushchevs likely
zuccessor. His post as President was largely ceremonial
He retains his position as a Communist Party Central
Committee secretary, where he is second only to Khrush-
chev himself, and Is In fact the Premier's chief aide In
running the Red Party.
By quitting as President, Brezhnev will have more
time to concentrate on political affairs. And It ls mean-
ingful that the Central Committee is the body which
communist political power is concentrated, and where
the decision will be made on Khrushchev's successor
Mikoyan's appointment means less work for the 68-
vear-old trouble-shooter and Soviet "traveling sales-
B^n” As First Deputy Premier, Mikoyan handled such
delicate chores as soothing Fidel Castro after Khrush-
chev pulled missiles out of Cuba In the 1962 crisis. Miko-
yan wui retain his key seat on the Presidium of the
Central Committee.
The Soviet Presidency, for Mikoyan. will be no slne-
•ure. He ls expected to use his talents to add real power
to the post that has been honorific But the key move
geems to have been bringing Brezhnev into line to take
over when Khrushchev steps down.

Whan Rita Reloe. an actress
•boss romances had made headlines
Internationally, toppled from the
second-story balcony of her hide-
away la M a eatlan. on the Pacific
side of Mexico, two workmen on
the grounds realised they had wit-
nessed La Rales' murder by n tail,
blond man. The workmen ran for
police.
About the same time, a young
American girl. Mareey Palmer, ar-
rived la Muatlaa from Seattle for
a prearranged reunion with Ted
Ferguton. a writer who was her
fiance before a quarrel. But Ted
was not at the airport to meet her.
Both angry and wondering, she
went to the hotel at which led had
told her rooms were reserved. ■ .
CHAPTER 6
rrm marcey palmer, the
morning had a quality of
unreality. She awakened early
to a glare of sunshine, the con-
fused sense of not knowing im-
mediately where she was or ex-
actly what was wrong. Then she
related to her surroundings
and, simultaneously, remem-
bered Ted.
It seemed incredible that after
urging her to meet him here he
would fall to arrive. Last night
when she finally went to bed
she had been certain he must
have been in an accident. The
roads, the clerk had said, were
bad. Perhaps Ted had found it
too dangerous to travel after
dark.
Still, he should have phoned
or wired. Yet, maybe he had.
Suddenly she was very certain
that, unless Ted had arrived
in the middle of the night, he
had wired, that she had only to
ask to find a telegram waiting
for her at the desk.
It was a sharp contrast be-
tween the air-conditioned room
and the heavy heat that pawed
at her as soon aa she stepped
outside. She had not realised
how early it was, or that most
of the guests would still be
sleeping. At the round wicker
tables In front of the lobby, a
single white-haired woman was
drinking coffee. Inside only a
sallow-faced clerk was on duty
at the desk.
When Marcey asked him
about Ted, he shuffled through
the registration cards half
heartedly.
••No," he said. "Senor Fergu-
son Is not here.” Then, at her
Insistence, he checked the mail
•Nothing, nothing at all, aen-
orita."
••But I'm not expecting a let-
ter," Marcey protested. “It was
a telegram. Mr. Ferguson waa
supposed to arrive yesterday.
Something may have happened
to him.”
“Senorita. there are no tele-
grams. in Mazatlan they do not
deliver at night” The clerk’s
manner was politely uncon-
th« novel published
corned. But Marcey
toe dismissed.
•'When are they delivered 7“
she asked.
He shrugged. "Nine O’clock
. . . Ten o’clock, maybe. When
the man gets here.**
Marcey'e frustration and
worry shifted to focus in a re-
sentment at the clerk, of Mex-
ico, of the slipahod, casual way
in which things were done. The
moist heat began to irritate her,
and she waa sorry aha had
made the trip.
She tried to Ml m hour by
taking a plunge hi the ocean,
but the water seemed too warm
and sticky, the undertow too
strong. She gave up at last and
had breakfast The food was
tasteless, the toast (try. the cof-
fee bitter.
Not until the telegrams were
delivered did Marcey admit that
it waa not the ocean, nor the
food, nor the clerk that really
bothered her. It Waa the histat-
ent worry about Ted.
“I’m sorry, senorita,” the
clerk told her disinterestedly,
"there’s nothing for you."
Because he waa the only per-
son she knew, Mareey thought
at Mr. Cordena. At least she
would have someone to talk to,
someone who was interested and
concerned.
• • •
x JOW that she had a concrete
* v plan of action ilw felt bet-
ter. ranch better. She had wee-
ned about Ted before and he
had always shown up. She must
remember how irresponsible he
was, that from his point of view
he was just a few home late.
In the taxi her anxiety re-
treated further. She found her-
self marveling at the brilliance
of the ocean, the tiny coconut-
laden palms, the quaint one-
horse carriages, the huge glass
and stone apartments and ho-
tels. The giant rust-colored
rocks were peeking up over the
esplanade now: the palm divider
was gone. A string of shops and
restaurants lined the opposite
side of the street
The driver let her out at the
Belmar, but It took Marcey
several minutes to locate Joee
Cordena's shop. The Interior was
festooned with shawls, peasant
blouses, straw hats, and em-
broidered dresses, hanging from
hooks in the ceiling, racks along
the wall. A pile of gaudy scavves
was draped over the c'uttered
counter, where Mr. Cordena, nls
face puckered with concentra-
tion, was polishing a silver
cigarette box.
When Marcey entered, his
pudgy cheeks unfolded Into a

“But how w® 1 taft with

“Oh. they an speak English.”
Mr. CoTOeoa assured her. ‘They

Another
approach,

OOLOWATER S NOMINATION:
WAS IT A MAJOR MISTAKE*
By HENRY CATHGABT
Central Pres* Washington Writer
vyrASfmunrns-To many professional politicians the r«a»
W meaning of events at San Francisco won't become plain
until the November presidential balloting has been counted.
True, some in both parties are taking the ttoort-range line thsu
the selection of Barry Goldwatcr as Uie GOP presidential cand -
date was a major mistake bordering on disaster. But there is
a longer view, and one worth thinking about
as objectively as current heated politics will
permit.
One must start from the premise that tht
GOP since 1832 has been, essentially, a min-
ority party nationally. It wine, or comes close
to winning, when it produces a magnetic per-
sonality or when the Democratic record be-
comes burdened with liabilities of Its own
doing.
If this is a valid statement, then it must
follow that the so-called liberal wing of the
GOP — the "Eastern Establishment’’ — has
failed through nearly 30 years of promulgat-
ing its beliefs to persuade a majority of the
nation's voters to rally behind it on a con-
tinuing basis.
Certainly, under those conditions, another
approach, another policy, another set of ideals would seem worth
a chance—particularly when its adherents have demonstrated
through a national primary campaign that it contained the only
elements of dynamism in the party.
Admittedly, it is a gamble, and a big one. Very few politicians
truly believe in their hearts that the GOP could w rest the White
House from the Democrats this year, regardless of which can-
didate had been selected.
If the conservative element, however, can attract a rcapectan r
showing at the polls in 1964, there is no reason why »t should
not have earned another chance, perhaps in 1968 or 1!).-’ to
ftoM a ticket that can build a winning campaign.
• * * *
• PRECEDENCE—'When Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor resigned as
rh.lm.il of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to become L*. S. ambassador
to Viet Nam, he received a citation describing him as the “prin-
cipal military adviser'’ of the President and secretary of Defence.
To some highly placed military figures in the Pentagon that
designation is viewed as a danger to the growing power of the
.h.im»n at the expense of the other members of the joint
chiefs. It isn’t only the phrase that bothers them.
Taylor had, in fact, become the principal military adviser to
President Johnson despite existence in the law
of a provision that the Joint chiefs as a group a Fait ere
should serve in that capacity. « ■
These objectors are concerned that the prac-
tice of relying on the chairman will develop a Developed?
pattern under which the joint chiefs pancl will
degenerate to lesser and lesser influence while that of tn* chair-
man Increases.
Under such a development, there could emerge oi er a period
of time a single chief of staff for all of the armed services—the
kind of structure that existed in the Nazi military system of
Germany and which is credited for some of the basically unround
planning decisions that contributed to that regime s dovnfa.*.
