Khrushchev took off a shoe, wa"ed it angrily wver

The Congo's yourn leaders threatened to break re- lations with the United Nations today because the

Few observers dared guess what would happen

We Want To Be Shown

Student Congress is on a spot. For,
the second time in the past few years,
UK student government .will be reorganized under a new charter and
students will be looking for some results.
Congress leaders assured us that
when the new constitution was finally
ratified it would be a panacea for
the congress many ills. They deemed
the approval of the constitution by
the Faculty Committee on Student
Organizations an essential step in the
congress' attempt to again become a
leader in student affairs. Last week,
after what seemed to be interminable deliberation, the Faculty committee approved the constitution essentially as presented by SC.
Students who have been at the
University for several years, however,
do not share the glowing enthusiasm
of the congress' leaders. They tend to
attake the Missourian's "show-me- "
titude.
can remember the
spring of 1958 when the old Student
Government Association was replaced
by Student Congress, then a new concept in student government at the
University. They heard the same platitudes, the same promises, the same
assurances that all would be well
with student government under the
new constitution.

A look at the two and a half years

under the "new" Student Congress
reveals a record of failures. After two
years of relatively calm operation and
moderate success under able leaders,
widespread election frauds undermined student faith in the congress.
poorly conducted rerun
An
caused SC to collapse like a house of
cards. Ineligible candidates, disputes
over write-i- n
winners, and resignaof key members left SC weak
tions
and leaderless and the student body
disgusted. The congress' growing
prestige was destroyed, its effectiveness dead.
We now see another chance for
the survival of student government
at the University. It is essential that
UK have a student government to
provide a communications link between students and administration.
To provide the needed channels of
communications, we would like to
see elections as soon as possible-electi- ons
properly monitored and conducted so as to prevent any fraud
such as that which almost killed the
body early in 1959.
Like the man from Missouri, we
have a "show-me- "
attitude. Unlike
that gentleman, however, we feel the
congress will show us if it is given the
support it needs.

Last spring, during the height of

been interpreted as condemnation of
violence that filled
the
Tokyo streets for weeks on end.
Heavy Socialist gains would have
been interpreted as meaning much of
the nation was sympathetic to their
platform of severing military ties
with Washington and establishing
closer bonds with Red China.
A Conservative victory seemed a
foregone conclusion. But Asanuma's
death brings a new element into the
voting picture.
The Socialists now have a martyr.
Japanese, emotional and romantic,
can be swayed by a martyr's death.
His death could consolidate widely held fears of resurgence of right-win- g
fanaticism. This also can help
the Socialists. Many Japanese believe
the ruling Liberal Democrats a loose
grouping of conservative factions-ha- ve
some ties with the fanatic right-win- g
organizations.
Many of those who took part in
the last spring's demonstrations said
they were doing so to protect Japan

cause they were Communists.
organizations actively supported the security pact, strengtheng
belief that the Libing the
eral Democrats were in alliance with
the fascists.
Asanuma's assination will undoubtedly raise all these fears again. The
Socialists can Ik? expected to make
the most of them.
It is a generally held view that
Japanese recoil from violence in public affairs and automatically side with
the victims of violence.

To The Editor:
How wonderful that President
Dickey (or someone) didn't excuse
classes last Saturday.
You see, we would have missed
our underwater baskehveaving class.
We worried all week thinking that
it might not meet. Anyway, how
ridiculous it would have been to
dismiss classes in order for us to
hear such a future historical character as the presidential nominee.
How wonderful to be protected from
speech!
a probable
Thinking. Ughl
Incidentally, what a precedent
would have been set. The next thing
that we would .know, the nominees
for dog catcher would be demanding
equal time.
This thoughtless discourtesy to
an insignificant "Yankee senator just
helped us to definitely decide on
something we were considering anyway.
Well conform and not vote.

Cliargcs Bias
To The Editor:
I had not noticed until Tuesday that the Kernel was a Republican paper.
I understand that it is supposed
to be nonpartisan, taking no political
stand. '
But Tuesday's paper was such a
perfect example of the opposite that
I cannot retain the respect I had
for it as high caliber news reporting.
When a presidential candidate
comes to our school I think he is
important enough to be reported on
accurately and with proper emphasis
by the school paper. Even if I were
for Nixon I would expect our school
paper to report on his appearance
with pictures as an important news
story.
But Tuesday's paper showed me

that the Kernel has none of this fair
play in mind. The front page had a
lead story on Republican Sen. John
Sherman Cooper. This may have
been more timely than the
Kennedy speech below it. But
why did the top picture of the
two-day-o-

ld

Saturday rally have to be a group
of Nixon fans, labeled "Yankee, Co
fIome?" Why couldn't the picture on
page two have been placed on the
first page? It was in more proper
taste and seems to me more important
and more newsworthy than playing
up the fact that a handful of Nixon
fans were booing at Kennedy. This
is intolerable. It would be intolerable if the same thing had happened
if Nixon had come here.
Further in the paper, page three
carried a story on campus comments
on Kennedy's looks. It was largely
negative and nonobstructive. On
page five another story criticizing
Kennedy appeared.
It is not often that someone of
such prestige can appear on our
campus. Are we to greet such a person with stories picking out his faults
and playing up his rivals? What will
you do if Nixon comes here?
If Tuesday's paper is an indication of the policy of the paper, I am
sure few people can have respect
for this kind of journalism.
I am honestly ashamed to send
that Kernel to any other school.

Johanna Draper
(Reader Drapers observation that
tlie tpeech by Sen. John Sherman
Cooper was given lead play in
Tuesday's Kernel because it was more
timely than the Saturday speech of
Sen. John F. Kennedy is correct.
II cr assumption that tlxc choice of
the picture of the Republican demonstrators for the front page was' an
to discredit the Democratic
nominee is not correct. Tlie choice of
photos was based on makeup considerations, not political consulcrations.
Tlie "story criticizing Kennedy" which
appeared on page four was a random
interview of students at the speech
and was intended to present campus
views rather tlian those presented by
tlie national press.
We would be glad to compare tlie
fairness of the Kernel's account of Sen.
Kennedys speech with that of any
newspaper Reader Draper would care
to present for inspection. Ami Reader
Draper will not luive to swallow licr
pride and send tlie Kernel to otlier
schools; our circulation depaitmcnt
tuails the paper to 23 colleges every
day. The Editor).
