The day after the elections Vice President Nixon was asked for his interpretation of the results. He said: "Republicans worked for two months. Our opponents worked for two years. The result was inevitable." The Wall Street Journal, with one of the most courageous and well informed editorial pages in the nation, said: "The responsibility for this disaster, . . . must rest on President Eisenhower. It was he who had the sense of direction and lost it; it was he who should have nurtured a party to support his ideas and did not; and, it is he who must take the lead in resurrecting it. It will be a sad thing for Mr. Eisenhower, and his country, if the final result of his years of leadership in war and peace turns out to be the dismantlement of one of the two great political parties in our two party system." These are strong words. But with Republicans losing 13 Senators, so members of the House and 5 governors, it is obviously time for plain speaking. It does no good to pick out and emphasize the few Republican wins — Rockefeller in New York, Goldwater in Arizona, and Beall in Maryland. These were the results of local or special situations, and in no sense alter the fact that this election was an avalanche for the Democrats. What are the political lessons to be drawn from the avalanche? Several are rather obvious. First, it is imperative the Republican Party be reorganized in both personnel and policies. Today there is too little difference between the Republican and Democratic parties. This is, apparently, the result of a deliberate decision on the part of the Republican High Command that conservatives Three were the results of local or special situations, and in no sense alter the fact that this election was an avalanche for the Democrats. What are the political lessons to be drawn from the avalanche? Several are rather obvious. First, it is imperative the Republican Party be reorganized in both personnel and policies. Today there is too little difference between the Republican and Democratic parties. This is, apparently, the result of a deliberate decision on the part of the Republican High Command that conservatism in this country is dead, and that only by swinging to the left does one have a chance for victory. This led to what is called "me-toolsm." If the election revealed anything, it was that such a policy cannot win. Whether or not a conservative program will appeal to the general public can not be established until it is tried, and it has been too many years since such a national program was offered. There is every reason to believe that the conviction Eisenhower was a conservative was one of the principal factors in his large 1952 vote, and for his re-election in 1956. For the first two or three years of his administration he even tried to act like a conservative, within limits. Recently, however, such conservatism has been lacking in his decisions. The situation is even worse among Senators and Representatives. The second lesson from the election outcome is that Republicans must put up better candidates. In too many places this time the Republican candidate was a nonentity, and in too many other places they were not willing to talk solid principles. That is not the way to win public support. If such persons happen to be elected, they add little to the possibilities for enactment of desirable legislation. This time the Republican party found itself extremely hard pressed financially. This was partly the result of lack of clarity as to what it stood for, partly due to growing dissatisfaction with the manner in which it was making decisions and running the Government, and partly because it presented so many weak candidates. The third lesson is that labor has become unbelievably strong in the political field. It did not win everything it attempted this time but its percentage of victories was unusually high. It was so high, in fact, that labor's top command is already planning the legislative program for the new Congress. This program includes a labor reform bill weaker than the Kennedy-Ives bill of 1958 and major amendments to weaken the Taft-Hartley Act. The final but equally important lesson is that politicking is a continuing, year-around affair. If there is to be victory strong in the political field. It did not win everything it attempted this time but its percentage of victories was unusually high. It was so high, in fact, that labor's top command is already planning the legislative program for the new Congress. This program includes a labor reform bill weaker than the Kennedy-Ives bill of 1958 and major amendments to weaken the Taft-Hartley Act. The final but equally important lesson is that politicking is a continuing, year-around affair. If there is to be victory in 1960 it is necessary to start work immediately and to keep working at it until that election. That is not a matter of only the professionals working. Perhaps even more important is for business management to recognize that it cannot continue to ignore the political field. Business took a more active part in the past campaign than it has for many years, but it started too late. It only started to do what must be done if it is to have any protection in the legislative halls. This is not a question of electing Republicans; it is the urgent need to elect good men regardless of party labels. How to Build A Ghost Town A recent report from the Colorado Springs (Colo.) chamber of commerce tells how to have a ghost town. It is an interesting tongue-in-cheek report that will hold just as true in our town as it does in that town. It went as follows: Results are certain for those working to create more "Ghost Towns" if these simple directions are followed either by accident or design. Hundreds of former thriving communities which are now silent towns prove there is more truth than poetry to the simple statement "It Could Happen Here." Here are the methods proved by experience to guaran- the bankruptcy, insanity, disappointment, suicides—all by-products of ghost towns. 1. Tell everyone you meet that you never buy anything home; the merchants are a bunch of crooks, robbers and pests. 2. Belittle all efforts for community betterment—the people trying to do these things are secretly making a lot of money, want to "run things" and their way of doing things is all wrong anyway. 3. Never waste money by advertising or waste time trying to attract trade to the town—nobody reads the ads, there is never anything in the paper, it's always late, and they should anyone want to come to town—it's a dead place. 4. Turn down all appeals for contributions; and in a nasty way so you won't be bothered again, because money collected is eventually stolen by some "highways." 5. Refuse to serve on all committees, have nothing with civic organizations—the Chamber of Commerce does anything and is run by a bunch of dimwits who only to get their names before the public. All the city officials are in office to get a share of the graft. There you have it—five simple directions for producing a ghost town. It's hard for any one person to do it, you keep at it, eventually you'll get some converts, Ghost Town. (The Endora Enterprise, Endora) GOLDS SELLS FOR LESS!
