Morrissey’s name from before the Senate is a clear-cut victory for American public opinion, for the American press and for good judg¬ ment of the Senate itself. It is, in essence, a victory of good sense and of concern for the public weal over political expediency and po¬ litical selfishness. We welcome the fact that in the end the demands of conscience triumphed over the demands of politics. Although the Morrissey nomina¬ tion should never have gotten off the ground in the first place, we believe that the whole affair can and will have a salutory effect. Not only does it demonstrate a deep national concern over an ef¬ fort to foist an individual regarded by many as ill-equipped into a po¬ sition of great importance, but it also shows this national concern can make itself felt effectively and decisively. We trust that this les¬ son will be long remembered in Washington and that, in its way, it will contribute to improved stan¬ dards of selection for public office. It is a well-known fact that the members of what is often called “the world’s most exclusive club >» hesitate to oppose the nomination of anyone whom another senator warmly and personally espouses. And few candidates for public of¬ fice ever had a warmer or more powerful personal espousal than did Judge Morrissey. Behind him was the weight of the entire Ken¬ nedy family, spearheaded by its two representatives in the Senate. Yet many Democrats, almost all of the Republicans and, above all, Senator Dirksen of Illinois stood out firmly against the nomination. The fact that there were many have been an element of politics in some opposition, does not change the fact that these opponents are owed a national vote of thanks. It is clear that the Morrissey fiasco will be long debated. Was his nomination, as some have sug¬ gested, a super-clever maneuver on President Johnson’s part to lead the Kennedys into a dadly political trap? To what extent ihas Sen. Ed¬ ward Kennedy’s sponsorship of the nomination and Sen. Robert Ken¬ nedy’s support of it (thereby go ig back on his earlier attitude when the Morrissey name was pro¬ posed during his brother’s presi¬ dency) put a political blight on the recently growing Kennedy bloom? Certainly, the outcome has done nothing to enhance either of the senators’ political reputation. But far more important than any such questions is the fact that the dignity of public office in the Uni¬ ted States has been protected and enhanced. —Editorial in Christian Science Monitor.

Russell, Washington, D. C. My dear Senator Russell: Mr. “Jim’ Davidson of the Cleveland Courier, recently carried me over the RICHARD B. RUSSELL SCENIC HIGHWAY, to Tesnatee Gap. I was overwhelmed at the mag¬ nificent panorama this highway opens up to the people of Georgia. This cracker hasn’t been aiywhere much, but I have never seen any¬ thing in pictures that surpasses the beautiful scenery thus unfolded. I have been a member of the- Natioin al Geographic Society for years and have kept up with such scenes spread on paper. Not only this; but this high¬ way is a real breakthrough toward making North Georgia the mecca of tourists and vacationists who de¬ sire the magnificently beautiful. I suggested to Davidsom that when this Highway is completed that an indestructible marker with your name on it imperishable in bronze should be placed at each entrance to this road. It would be your everlasting monument for the part you have played in getting the road built. This road will make the mountainous region of Geor¬ gia prosperous and profitable to the state of Georgia as Western Carolina has been to that state. Yours very truly, F. M. REEVES PINEY WOODS PETE Soys: DEAR MISTER EDITOR: The President’s health planners 850 strong, met the other day to tell what they’d learned about the American people. A published re¬ port said they found: Fifteen million suffering from heart disease; 48 million potential cancer victims, although healthy now; a fifth of the country’s chil¬ dren under 17 afflicted with chron¬ ic ills; and an infant mortality rate for Negroes 90 per cent higher than that for whiles. Is no place safe to live in? I like the yarn about a country¬ man who was stopped by a stranger. The conversation went like this: “Is this a healthy place?” “Sure is. When I came here I couldn’t walk, couldn’t talk, and had no hair. ‘How long you been here?” it I was born here.

Mississippian ft Gets Life for jC ’ Raping Negro HATTIESBURG, Miss., Nov. 11 (AP) — A Forrest County jury Thursday convicted a youthful white welder of raping a Negro teen-ager — making the first time in the county history a white man was sentenced in the attack on a Negro. Norman Cannon, 19, of the Sumrall community,! was found guilty as charged in the July 13 rape of a 15-year old Hattiesburg Negro school girl. The bushy - haired defendant showed no emotion as the verdict was read. Rape is a capital offense but the jury may stipulate life. The jury fixed punishment at life imprisonment. Defense attorneys said they would appeal the verdict. The girl picked Cannon from a police line-up as her attacker. She told the court she was lured to his car on the pretense he sought a baby-sitter. PAY YOUR SUBSCRIPTION NOW
