“ALL THAT IS NEEDED TO REMEDY THE EVILS OF
OUR TIMES IS TO DO JUSTICE AND GIVE FREEDOM"
Big Silence
Newscasters and newspaper reporters are
constantly informing us that this national elec
tion has stirred more interest than any pre
vious one. Despite the sheer numerical
strength of 6 millions who have registered
for the first time, there is a great stillness
in the air.
There are some reasons underlying this
large mass of quietness which is invading
the country from New York to California. For
once Dr. Gallup, the highly over-rated poll
ster, is keeping still. His men on the streets
have been unable to discover why a big
question mark hangs over the voters' heads.
Perhaps, for the first time in many years,
the people are genuinely weighing the plus
and minus records of those who seek the
highest office in the nation. The ballyhoo
of the slogan makers and the display makers
has failed to stir the American voter.
An air of mystery is felt when one men
tions Vice President Nixon or Senator John
Kennedy. Some will say they favor one or
the other, but in the next breath, they might
say they*re not sure.
No one can rely on any polls, the big sil
ence will break when the levers are pulled
on November 8. Until that day, there will
be all types of predictions. The only fore
cast that is trustworthy is this one —No one
will accdmpany you in the voting booth.
Heed the cry of that commercial, “Want
a voice in the people 9 s choice?" Get out
and vote! Don't let the big silence be your
refusal to budge because you couldn't de
cide. Now is the time to start making your
decision.
VOTE V FOR
u The qualified, dedicated candidate ...”

Last week was proclaimed by
President Dwight Eisenhower as
National Newspaper Week. Pro
grams were held in many of the
cities. Some papers were award
ed plaques or citations for one
feature or another. Publishers,,
editors, writers and newsboys
were congratulated. Everybody
got into the act but the chil
dren, men and women who make
the papers possible—The Read
ers. As my belated part of
the National Newspaper Week
observance, 1 wish to thank each
reader of The Arizona Tribune
who takes time to read our pa
per. Many people are involved
in this operation. Advertisers
have faith in our message. Read
ers like to find something to
agree or disagree with in our
publication. Some like die won
derful photographs, others like
our frank editorial policies,
some like the ramblings of this
column.
Whatever your reasons may be
for reading this newspaper—
remember that you make the top
of our list. I now proclaim the
week following National Newspa
per Week as “National Newspa
per Readers’ Week.’’
Newspapers have played im
portant roles in my life. My
Mother was amazed when I star
ted reading a hometown daily
when 1 was toddling around the
house. At the age of three I could
dash through the headlines and
glibly read the advertisements.
(Those ads made a bit more
sense in those days.) Do you
remember “Watch the Fords go
by*’, or “I’d walk a mile for a
Camel?’*
As an elementary student, I
helped with the little school pub
lication. Once in a while I would
write an article for it. Later in
high school, I took some journal
ism courses and I was appointed
editor of the high school paper.
In college, I forsook the news
paper and joined a literary soci
ety. We were required to write
an original story, poem or play
let each week or two. During that
time I tried my hand at writing
weird lyrics for one of my friends
who composed wild tunes.
Unlike most persons who write
for themselves or others, I have
no burning ambition to pen my
autobiography. Instead, 1 have
written my epitaph, keeping in
mind usage difficulties exper
ienced by readers who can only
guess what a writer means.
EPITAPH FOR ELOWEESE
OR WAS IT ELOUISE?
She didn’t write right,
She couldn’t read read (red).
She didn’t bowl boll
She couldn’t might mite.
She wouldn’t due or dew.
One thing she did do—
She surely died det*d.
Who? Her? She?
Who? Mel ELOISE I

Edward Banks
Millions of voters have dutifully registered as members of one
political party or another. Over the years; two major parties have
emerged and dominated the political life of the citizens of the Uni
ted States of America. Unfortunately few persons, Republicans or
Democrats, have taken the time to study their so-called parties in
an attempt to understand their reasons for choosing that particular
one.
During the founding of this nation, one party, headed by George
Washington held sway until some discontented men wanted to ex
press their views. These men formed the Republican-Democratic
Party. Under the leadership of Thomas Jefferson, they controlled
national politics for many decades.
More differences were voiced within this party find two branches
appeared—namely, the Republicans and the Democrats. For many
years, there were no great differences in the two party platforms or
plans of action. Few voters ever saw candidates for the Presidency.
In fact, one candidate who was elected never left the Capitol during
die entire period.
Most Americans belong to a certain party because their parents
belonged. Others assume the same political party of their husbands
or wives. Moreover, women do not exercise their freedom of thought;
they usually follow their husbands* choice.
Many persons who are interested in the city, state and country,
do not vote because they would prefer not to be classified as a mem
ber of a particular party. In many states they are deprived of a
voice in primary elections. This keeps many eligible individuals
from participating in their government.
At election times, many people think that the political party of
their choice is some type of special idol or image. They vote a
straight party ticket. Little do they realize that they have failed to
exercise their democratic privileges. There is no one party with
all desirable candidates.
Don’t vote blindly for a party I
Vote for the man or woman that you feel can do the job!
