THE BATTALION
College Station, Texas Thursday, October 22, 1964
CADET SLOUCH
-J l.
by Jim Earle KULTURE
KORNER
Leadershpi, experience, peace
and prosperity pretty well sum
up President Lyndon Johnson’s
bid for election Nov. 3.
He has demonstrated since that
black day on Nov. 22 that he is
capable of leading our nation
in a time of crisis, a time when a
wrong decision could lead to
world-wide fatality.
His record — 12 years in the
Senate, two years Senate Major
ity Whip, two years Minority
Leader and five years Majority
Leader — is indicative of his ex
perience.
He has kept the Viet Nam sit
uation from exploding into all-out
war. By continuing limited war
fare there, he has maintained the
fight against Communism with
out retreat, yet has not allowed
the situation to wreak world
havoc.
During his tenure, income tax
es have dropped $11.5 billion,
while total personal income has
increased $75 billion.
He has initiated a war on pov
erty, has increased military prep
arations to asure peace, has seen
the Gross National Product rise
to over $600 billion.
His administration has provided
forward-looking farm legislation,
has safeguarded and strengthen
ed human rights, has increased
unemployment benefits.
President Johnson has signed
bills — which his opponent has
opposed — concerning more col
lege classrooms, 'improvement of
vocational education and increas
ed loans to needy college stu
dents.
Concerning education, the Pres
ident has said, “Onto my desk
each day come the problems of
190 million men and women.
When we consider those prob
lems study them, analyze them,
evaluate what can be done, the
answer almost always comes down
to one word: education.”
On the other hand, Senator
Goldwater has said, “The Govern
ment has no right to educate
children. The parents, you and I,
have that responsibility. The
child has no right to an educa
tion. In most cases, the children
will get along very well without
it.”
In what century, Mr. Gold-
water? When irresponsible par
ents do not educate their child
ren, someone must. Education
is vital to the relief of the pov
erty-stricken, is vital to the solv
ing of our national and inter
national problems.
While Mr. Goldwater has v. t-
ed NO, the majority of our law
makers have voted YES, allow
ing our nation progression in
stead of regression, action instead
of stagmatism, prosperity instead
of hunger relationalization in
stead of rashness.
This same administration, this
same majority will continue to
lead our nation as the spokes
man for the free world for the
next four years.

Johnson’s Voting Right
In Blanco County Defended
Viet Nam Triumvirate
AUSTIN (A 5 ) — Austin attor
ney Trueman O’Quinn, who is
Travis County Democratic chair
man, says President Johnson has
a clear legal right to vote in Blan
co County, although the LBJ
Ranch is in adjacent Gillespie
County.
Last week, Burnet attorney
Billie J. Pratt, Republican can
didate for 10th District congress
man, wrote Johnson saying he
thought Johnson’s record of vot
ing in Johnson City, Blanco Coun
ty, instead of Gillespie County,
was neither “fair” nor “right.”
Gillespie County usually votes
Republican on presidential nomi
nees.
Since Johnson became Presi
dent his press aides have asked
that all news stories originating
from the ranch be given a date
line of “Johnson City,” 15 miles
east of the ranch, instead of
“Stonewall” which is only two
miles from the ranch gate but
is in Gillespie County.

Maj. Gen. Nguyen Khanh, the
caretaker premier, and his part
ners in the triumvirate held to
the deadline Khanh established
after widespread rioting in late
summer by Buddhist and student
critics of the Khanh administra
tion.
The order was directed to the
High National Council, a 17-man
agency named last month to steer
this Communist-plagued nation
from military to civilian control.
Signing the decree with Khanh
were Maj. Gen. Duong Van Minh,
the current chief of state; and
Lt. Gen. Tran Thien Khiem, the
former defense minister who is
reported slated to become ambass
ador to Washington.

Artwork currently on exhibit
in the Memorial Student Center
is selected from the Frist Inter
national Miniature Print Compet
ition and Exhibition held in April,
2. 1964.
The competition, sponsored by
the Pratt Graphic Art Center of
New York, seeks to revive the al
most lost art of miniature print
making, overshadowed in recent
years by the gigantic works of
Jackson Pollock, Pablo Picasso
and Larry Rivers.
A majority of the 73 works ex
hibited are excellent examples of
craftsmanship and artistic ability,
yet the pricing is the $3 to $25
range.
Although the entire exhibit
could easily be carried in one’s
shirt pocket, the quality of the
work is in many ways superior to
any comparable exhibition pre
sented by the Memorial Student
Center in several years.
Of particular interest are “Bar-
bro Victoria” a mezzotint by Bar-
bro Forslund and “Cabalist,” an
etching by Aubrey Schwartz, both
of which took prizes in the com
petition.
Paul D. Martin’s “Wall No. 1,”
another black-and-white etching,
in quite reminiscent of the style
and form of Goya.
Ann Weisman’s “Head” and
“The Waterfront” are excellent
renderings in mezzotint and show
fine handling of this difficult
medium, with the former print
winning a purchase prize in the
competition.
For those who are interested in
color, Clare Romano’s “Mana-
hatta,” a woodcut and Ellen Na
than’s “Fragment,” a wooden
graving, show good handling of
the media.
★ ★ ★
“Some women can’t help being
what they are . . .” reads the ad
vertisement for the second film
version of W. Somerset Mau
gham’s “Of Human Bondage.”
This may be true of Mildred Ro
gers (Kim Novak), but one gets
the feeling that some men should
be able to help themselves, which
Philip Carey (Laurence Harvey),
never seems to be able to do.
Maugham’s classic story of
one’s man’s slavish devotion to
an unworthy woman, the prosti
tute without the heart of gold,
was not changed materially for
the movie version except that sec
tions were deleted which could
probably have enriched the stdry
by being left in the movie.
