Kennedyk

Senator Edward Kennedy's
announcement removing himself
from the quest for the 1976
Democratic nomination for President
was a wise decision for himself. his
family and the country.

Kennedy‘s statement made it quite
evident that his responsibility to his
family was his first concern.
Kennedy‘s wife. Joan. has been
hospitalized twice recently for mental
stress and his son. Edward Jr.. lost
part of his leg last winter because of
bone cancer.

safety in a presidential campaign.
The decision to remove himself as a
candidate definitely lowered the risk
that someone. seeking to establish a
name in history. might attempt to
assassinate Kennedy. 'l‘his
consideration doubtless had some
bearing on the Senator‘s decision.
The (happaquiddick affair also
played a major role in Kennedy‘s
deliberations. Certainly the 1976
presidential nominees will face close
public scrutiny with a placed
premium on honesty and candor.

Studying Free-U catalog:
Chautauquas, copyrights

By NEILL MORGAN

Right there! Right down in the right
corner of the new Free University catalog.
just below the description of the “Theology
of Saint Thomas” class. right next to the
“Wargames” account, that‘s where the
words are.

“Warning.“ growls the print. “it is
forbidden to smoke or eat this catalog in
any form.“

I WON'T. of course. as it looks like this
fall’s edition of the postercatalog put out
by UK‘s Free-U may. in some respects be
considered one of its best. And those
words. while sounding quite silly. tend to
show the tone of how the Free-U has
operated since it was organized back
around 1967. At least I think that's when it
\\ as started; trying to pin an origin on the
Free-U seems rather odd. like making an
institution of it. That's not the Free—U.

I remember my first Free-U class.
which. I see. is still offered this semester
— “Cowboys and Indians.” The class was
just like the title said; we went out and
played cowboys and Indians. Another
time, I took “Fantasy Fiction" and the
class decided to do a play of The Hobbit.
We talked about scripts, costumes and
players; we talked about recreating the
Battle of Lonely Mountain. We just talked.

Great fun. those classes. They were
profound because they were pleasing. All

individuals were teachers as well as
learners.

SOMETIMES THE Free-U becomes
quite frivolous. like two or so years ago
when the coordinating council had a rift
over the poster then used. It was a very
artistic photo of a nude woman that some
more liberated students thought was
sexist. This year, I see. the Free-U has a
seminar planned. “an open discussion
group aimed at a critical evaluation of the
Free-U‘s role on campus."

The poster side is a handbill of sorts.
reminiscent of the half-forgotten canvas-
topped medicine shows — “34 Marvelous
Medications“ — from the 1880's and 90‘s:
the poster as part of the Free-U catalog
reminds me of the Chautauquas.

The Chautauqua movement was started
about the same time. 1876. up in Fair
Point. N.Y., by the Rev. John Vincent and
a friend of his from over toward Akron.
The first Chautauqua was nothing more
than a school for Sunday School teachers.
but as more were set up around the
country. they provided popular education,
usually combined with entertainment in
the form of lectures.

AS (‘HAL’TAL’QL‘AS became popular
they were adopted to the tent circuit. so by
1924 traveling Chautauquas visited 10,000
towns and villages. or 40 million people.
But then along came Charlie Chaplin.

 

Editorials represent theoplnions ot the editors, not the Univenity

drowning. Kennedy‘s handling of the
accident [\‘pOI‘i and his subsequent
explanation still remains a major
concern of the American populace. A
Kennedy candidacy would have

brought forth another divisive
national debate about political
scandaLs which would have been

harmful to the national Democratic
ticket.

Now perhaps Senator Kennedy can
get back to the business of being a
legislative leader instead of playing
the banquet circuit in an attempt to
build national support for a
presidential candidacy. llis

change, don't they.

If you've ever looked at a Free-U class
catalog. you’ll know it isn't read
systematically the first time. You turn it
all sorts of ways. scanning carefully for
the wacko quotes and saying in the
margins. That‘s how I came across that
warning. And another warning in the lower
left corner. “It is forbidden to reproduce
this catalog in any form." It was also silly.

Then. just an inch or two above that
warning. I found a rather strange phrase:

(‘opyright 1974 Free l'niversity of (‘entral

reread the description for that seminar.

Let‘s form a corporation ~ Free-U Inc.
But not necessarily non-profit. as what's
more relevant than giving students extra

Free-U coordinating council the board of
directors. along with a handful of UK's
dean and directors —~~ strictly for
professional guidance. you understand.

We can issue preferred stock to all
directors. and common. say five or six
thousand shares. can be offered to the
student body. but with the directors
retaining first option on any common
splits. The Free-U classes can travel to all
the dorms. Greek houses. local bars and
even to High Bridge on Saturday nights.

Maybe we'll make enough money to buy
some live arrows and guns for “Cowboys
and Indians.“ after all. you have to be

realistic to be relevant. Great fun. those
classes.

Capitalism vs. socialism:
A view from the right

By W. S. Krogdahl

Twice in recent weeks the
Kernel has peddled the party line
for two local comrades, Margaret
Weeks of the Marxist-Leninist
Lexington (‘ommunist (‘ollective
and Russell I’elle of the Young
Socialist Alliance Presumably
this was evidence of the Kernel‘s
devotion to the idea proclaimed
on its editorial page of Sept. 18
that there should be a “free
market place of ideas.”

Who in his right mind would
want to buy the shoddy, shopworn
ideas of Weeks and Pelle?
Russell l’elle's Young Socialist
Alliance is simply the juvenile
division of the Trotskyite Social-
ist Workers‘ Party, described by
the late J Edgar Hoover as
"orthodox (‘ommunism‘s most
extensive beachhead in higher
education.“ In the YSA weekly
newspaper, the Militant, they
stated their purposes in the Oct.
16, 1970 issue with uncharacter-
istic candor: “The YSA is a
revolutionary socialistic move-
ment which can lead the working
people in the transformation of
society and the construction of
socialism."

IN (‘ASE you‘re misled by that
innocuous-sounding reference to
“socialism", remember that
“socialism" is what they have in
the Union of Soviet Socialist
Republics and what Germany
enjoyed under the National
Workers‘ Socialist Party, the
Nazi Party of Adolf Hitler.

You think that‘s overstating the
case? The Militant of December
27, 1968 has this to say about the
“socialists” own organization:
“The YSA is modeled on the
organizational principle of demo-
cratic centralism. This concept
originated in Lenin‘s Bolshevik
Party, which was the first
revolutionary party to overthrow
a capitalist regime; it has been
modified and adapted to the tasks
of revolutionaries in this country
by the American Trotskyist
movement."

In case you're wondering
exactly what “democratic cen-
tralism“ is. former (‘oinmunist
Louis Budenz explains it very
simply. democratic centralism
means that “orders from higher
ranks of the Party must be
explicitly obeyed and followed by
those below ” (‘entralism yes.

democratic no. Just another
example of Communist double~
talk to beguilc the boobs on the
barricades.

YOUNG: SOCIALIST Pelle and
his “democratic centralist“
friends, it is, whose hearts bleed
for the people of the Portugese
colonies like Angola. That‘s
where Communist-led, Commu—
nist-trained, Communist-
equipped guerillas (they would
rather you call them “freedom
fighters“) massacred innocent
men, women, and children ,,_
white and black. young and old.
rich and poor ~— in unprovoked
attacks in March, 1961. They
showed their humanity and
sensitivity by running live
women through a sawmill, and by
various other like gestures of
compassion for the downtrodden.

Young Socialist Pelle is merely
throwing sand in the public eye,
employing the standard Com—
munist tactic of charging others
with the very sins Communists
(“socialists") commit on the
grandest scale. There is nothing
new in this.

In 1961, the US. government
circulated a memorandum to all
UN members which stated in
part: “The United States expects
that the United Nations will focus
its attention as carefully on the
‘colonialism’ of the Soviet Union
as it does on that of Portugal or
any other nation...The Sine--
Soviet bloc today embraces the
largest colonial empire which has
ever existed in all history...The
Communist empire is the only
imperial system which is not
liquidating itself, as other
empires have done, but is still
trying energetically to expand in
all directions...The Soviet colo-
nial system is one of the most
cruel and oppressive ever
devised...(lti is the only modern
empire in which no subject
people has ever been offered any
choice concerning their future
and their destiny,"

HOW MHH'T IT. Mr. Pelle?
When are you and the YSA going
to wax appropriately indignant
about (‘ommunist subjugation
and jack-boot totalitarian foreign
rule of Poland, Hungary. (‘zechn-
slovakia, Romania, Bulgaria.
Albania, Latvia, Estonia. Lith-

uania, East Germany. China,
Tibet, North Vietnam, Cuba, and
assorted other Communist con-
quests? I'm not holding my

breath.

Collectivists Weeks‘ mindless

Marxist analysis is the typical
leftist inverted view of things.
Merely saying that the free
enterprise system (which in her
semantic confusion she equates
with capitalism) is responsible
for political corruption doesn’t
make it so. The shoe is, in fact. on
the other foot. To the extent that
the free market forces have been
superseded in our economy by
the discretion of bureaucrats who
direct an increasingly central-
ized government, to that extent
may we expect corruption to
grow. Men of overweening
ambition will not scruple to attain
the greater power by whatever
means seem to be required, and
favor-seekers will not shrink
from offering favors in order to
receive. It is socialism, not free
enterprise capitalism, which
aggravates the eternal problem
of public corruption.

Invitations by Weeks and Pelle
to impose more socialism upon
America rather than to cleanse
the country of the creeping and
covert socialism we now have are
an insult to the intelligence.
Socialism is the road to slave
labor, concentration camps. star-
vation, rule by terror, the
internal passport, perpetual
rationing, endless shortages, the
police state, low standards of
living. the liquidation of millions
of innocent people, and the
midnight knock on the door. As
former socialist Max Eastman
puts it. it is “one of the greatest
disasters that ever befell man-
kind." Former Indian Commu-
nist Philip Spratt says “The
(‘ommunist movement runs on
hate."

Al'TIItm ANI) editor Eugene
Lyons sums it up: “When
measured by its costs in life
suffering and moral depravity.
Soviet (‘ommunism is demon»
strahly the most tragic failure on
this scale in all history.” Try to
sell that product in the market
place of ideas" You can‘t be
serious?

\\‘.\Slll?\'(i'l‘()\ «Al’ 1 -— The retail cost ofa year's supply of farm~

$1.751 for a typical household. figures released by the Agriculture
Department showed 'l‘uesda y.

Higher prices for beef. pork and eggs accounted for much of the
int-tease. Lower prices were reported for milk, lettuce and bread.

Officials said the dollar increase. amounting to 1.4 per cent from
July to August, was the largest since the indicator rose $52 or 3.1
per cent on an annual basis from last January to February.

The August basket cost eclipsed the previous record of $1.747 set
last March. The figure had declined in April. rose in May and then
dropped in June and July.

According to the LSDA statistics. compiled at the request of
newsmen, nearly all of the 25 gain from July was due to a larger
