Parking
The LC parking problem is becoming
increasingly acute with no help ap
parently in sight. The dorm parking
lots, especially the one in Forest,
haven't even got enough spaces to hold
all the cars of students living there,
much less those of visitOl'S and staff
mem.bers who must park there during
~he day. taking were available, i L would take
time to complete. There is little
1·oom to enlarge any of the dorm lots,
but eve1'Y year there are more cars
and by next yeai· there just won't
be room.
For next year, we suggest that a
quota list be established which would
allow a maximum nwnber of resident
students to have cai·s. All juniors
and seniors should be allowed to sign
the list with left-over spaces offered
to sophomores on a first come, first
served basis. Other sophomores should
then be allowed to park in the back
part of Griswold or, ideally, ln another
small lot somewhere on the newer
school property. Co.mmuter students fill the Temple
ton lots early, even overJlowing into
spaces -rese1ved for staff members,
and most on-campus roads are lined
with ca.rs. This leaves only Gris
wold for daytime parking.
So far, the secw·ity officers have
been very reasonable and have voided
parking citations when there ls a good
excuse, but their tolerance won't solve
the problem. There are many possibilities and we
hope anyone with other ideas will
suggest them, either to the Log or to
the administration. There was talk some time ago about
an on-campus parklng facility, but

\ Successful \Series
The performance by the Turnau
Opera Company last week brought to
a close the 1968 Cultural Arts Series,
and in terms of response it was the
most successful series ever. All
four of the performa11ces (Fredd Wayne
as Benjamin Franklin, The Sandpipers,
Janos Starker and the Turnau Com
pany) drew la1·ge audiences which were
equally enthusiastic. The credit must go the Cultural Arts
Director Pete Vlahos, who puts in
untold extra hours on the series, col
lege convocations, coordinating many
or the efforts of the m1Jtsic and theater
departments and many other projects.
We appreciate his dedication and help,
and look forward to a fine series
next year.
Turnau Players Bring Fine Opera, Rapport
by Bruce Lamon
1be performance or ClacchJno
Ross,nt's oper:-a "'The Barber of

Why did Senator Rohen F. Ken

opposition to the Vtemam War
absolutely clear? To Kennedy's

that the Senator, viewing the grow
ing opposition to Johnson's Viet
nam ;,ollcy as lndlcated by both
public opinion polls and tbe New
Hompshlre primary. 541w John
son's· vulnerabUlty and not only
attacked him on the war but be
latedly entered the Presidential
campaign as well.
Many McCanhy suppor1ers felt
KclUlied,Y had taken none of the
political risks. McCanhy was
the first to 1hrow his political
career In Jeoparoy by actively
opposing an incumbent prcsidc:mt
of bis own pollt1cal party. His
supponcrs maln.1aln !bar McCarthy
was motivated by the highest moral
principles. A man who offered
hlmsell as both a trial balloon
and a s.acrlflcial lamb for a cause
be believed more importanl than
hJs O\lo"O policcal career.
However, it is entirely conceiv
able that Robert Kennedy 1s not
a ruthlessly 11mbilious man and that
his declsl<>n to oppose the Presi
dent was dictated by his conscience
a.nd his sense of social respon ...
slblllty.
Kennedy's posinon ln American
politics Is unique. He Is the
brother of tbe manyred John F.
KeM<!<ly an<I hos fallen heir to
the political machine of his late
brother.
Much 01 Kennedy's support
comes because his name ls Ken

After John Kennedy won the
()emocrartc nomination in 1960,
it was Rohen who urged his brother
no1 to choose Lyndon Johnson as
the vtcc-prestdenttal nominet!, but
l.nstead to select Senator Henry
Jackson of 1Voshing1on. Durtng
JFK·s administration. il was con
tinually charged Iha1 Rohen Ke._
nedy conStantly down-graded
Johnson.
Thus when McCarthy announced
he would seek the democratic nom
ination, Kennedy was put In a
precarious political dUcmma.. To
be sure McCarthy's efforts seemed
gall11nt but poUllcally naive. He
could DOI possibly hope 10 block
Johnson's nomlnat1on.. Hehodliule

and faced th(? awcsom~ power of
a polit1cally experienced and gifted
incumbent president.
Then Ihe beginning or wha1 was

dldonally, the notion appeared lO
be more divided by both racial
tensions and th,c Vlctnam War four more years of Johnson to

After the reaction to the Tet
offensive an.cl the New Hampshire

obvious. Th.e coalition of Southern
conservatives. labor. tnteUecruals
and mlnoriry groups-which had
constituted the Democratic PartY
since tbe da.ys of Fronklln Roose

No longer could Kennedy stay
out of the race on the excuse

became a decision of practical

nedy' s own consc-lenc~ Did he
really ,oppose Johnson enough to
challenge his nominallon and did
he have a chance of defeating
him If he did make the fight.
Kennedy decided "Yes."
He knew the McCarthy alone

Foreign Aid
To the Editor:
I woul<I like 10 express my hlgil
regard and respect to Senator
Morse. The speech he delivered
on Sunday. April 21, 1968, "For
eign Aid Forever?" ts a contro
versial topic nowadays. They
are controversial tdc.as not only
In 1he United Stales but also In
ali the so-called underdeveloped
nations ln the world.
Senator Morse told the audt,..
ence the facts and consequences
of {ore.Igo aid. tie revealed lO
the audience what foreign ald
really Is. As he mentioned In
his speech, aid Is not really de
voted to progress ln rat.sing the
standard of llvlng of the poor
nations. but to the minority load
ers.
All of Ihe underdeveloped coun
rrles hove political. economic and
cultural differences. The con
trlbullon of aid depends on the
country's standing. In the case
of a country which Is ruled by a
dictalor or an autocrat the ald
may have an lnslgnlflca.0I cffecL
The rut.er uses th.e old fo::-his
own personal advancement. He
strengthens his political power
In tbe military and uses It to
Increase his support. The ald
Is going only as far us his pockc1.
The masses of people suffer Crom
illiteracy, poverty and disease.
These facts should be realized by
the policy makers of the United
States and tbey must review their
policy, To whom Is the United
States giving aid and for whaI
purpose Is It lO be used? People
are raJslng quesUons e:Ye.ry time
they are Informed that their coun
try got a loan from the United
States. Th•y still are suffering
and tbey ask, • 'Where Is the
money going?''
One of the biggest segments ot
aid from the United States Is
m!Umry aid. Tanks, guns, and
bombs are not capital. ln other
words. they are not producdv~
Today backward nations need
bread. nor bullets. 1 am not
awar:e that all nations should have
defense programs for nadonal
security. In order to encourage
foreign investment a coWJtry
must be polltlcally stable, and
able to enforce the law. TI,e
other main objective oC old may
be to prevent communist aggres
sion. But I protest against chis
policy bccnuse the llulk of the aid
should not go to the military sec
tor. It should be In proportlon
of need to the other sectors.
This money given to military aid
is needc.-d for other purposes thnn
those whJ.eh the policy makers of
the United Stn1es have provided
for.
Military aid is used to expand
rerrltorllll boW1daries. Mill"1ry

don't believe thnt a country like Kenya or Somalia poses a -

Military aid Is also u...i to

I think tbe United Stao,s ■Id

mU!tary aid and the policy shi>uld
be changed to only economic aid.

Parking
The LC parking problem is becoming
increasingly acute with no help ap
parently in sight. The dorm parking
lots, especially the one in Forest,
haven't even got enough spaces to hold
all the cars of students living there,
much less those of visitOl'S and staff
mem.bers who must park there during
~he day. taking were available, i L would take
time to complete. There is little
1·oom to enlarge any of the dorm lots,
but eve1'Y year there are more cars
and by next yeai· there just won't
be room.
For next year, we suggest that a

allow a maximum nwnber of resident
students to have cai·s. All juniors
and seniors should be allowed to sign
the list with left-over spaces offered
to sophomores on a first come, first

then be allowed to park in the back
part of Griswold or, ideally, ln another
small lot somewhere on the newer

So far, the secw·ity officers have
been very reasonable and have voided
parking citations when there ls a good
excuse, but their tolerance won't solve
the problem. There are many possibilities and we
hope anyone with other ideas will
suggest them, either to the Log or to
the administration. There was talk some time ago about

\ Successful \Series
The performance by the Turnau
Opera Company last week brought to
a close the 1968 Cultural Arts Series,
and in terms of response it was the
most successful series ever. All
four of the performa11ces (Fredd Wayne
as Benjamin Franklin, The Sandpipers,
Janos Starker and the Turnau Com
pany) drew la1·ge audiences which were
equally enthusiastic. The credit must go the Cultural Arts
Director Pete Vlahos, who puts in
untold extra hours on the series, col
lege convocations, coordinating many
or the efforts of the m1Jtsic and theater
departments and many other projects.
We appreciate his dedication and help,
and look forward to a fine series
next year.

Kennedy's Campaign Reasons Traced
by Charles B. Jones ll
and Frank DUJow
Why did Senator Rohen F. Ken
nedy take so long ln malting his
opposition to the Vtemam War
absolutely clear? To Kennedy's
crlrtcs it seems only plausible
that the Senator, viewing the grow
ing opposition to Johnson's Viet
nam ;,ollcy as lndlcated by both
public opinion polls and tbe New
Hompshlre primary. 541w John
son's· vulnerabUlty and not only
attacked him on the war but be
latedly entered the Presidential
campaign as well.
Many McCanhy suppor1ers felt
KclUlied,Y had taken none of the
political risks. McCanhy was
the first to 1hrow his political
career In Jeoparoy by actively
opposing an incumbent prcsidc:mt
of bis own pollt1cal party. His
supponcrs maln.1aln !bar McCarthy
was motivated by the highest moral
principles. A man who offered
hlmsell as both a trial balloon
and a s.acrlflcial lamb for a cause
be believed more importanl than
hJs O\lo"O policcal career.
However, it is entirely conceiv
able that Robert Kennedy 1s not
a ruthlessly 11mbilious man and that
his declsl<>n to oppose the Presi
dent was dictated by his conscience
a.nd his sense of social respon ...
slblllty.
Kennedy's posinon ln American
politics Is unique. He Is the
brother of tbe manyred John F.
KeM<!<ly an<I hos fallen heir to
the political machine of his late
brother.
Much 01 Kennedy's support
comes because his name ls Ken
nedy. It was bis brother who made
Bob'~ political career possible.
H• r•s<Unbles John In speech and
to a lesser extent in appearance ..

After John Kennedy won the
()emocrartc nomination in 1960,
it was Rohen who urged his brother
no1 to choose Lyndon Johnson as
the vtcc-prestdenttal nominet!, but
l.nstead to select Senator Henry
Jackson of 1Voshing1on. Durtng
JFK·s administration. il was con
tinually charged Iha1 Rohen Ke._
nedy conStantly down-graded
Johnson.
Thus when McCarthy announced
he would seek the democratic nom
ination, Kennedy was put In a
precarious political dUcmma.. To
be sure McCarthy's efforts seemed
gall11nt but poUllcally naive. He
could DOI possibly hope 10 block
Johnson's nomlnat1on.. Hehodliule
$Uppon among the porly regulars
and faced th(? awcsom~ power of
a polit1cally experienced and gifted
incumbent president.
Then Ihe beginning or wha1 was
ro b(! a series of majot and un
expected events occurred. The
Tet offensiv~ convinced I.he Amer ..
lean public and even tbe military
that the United Sures could not

toward the war be,c3in~ common

ond Frank McCee publlcally chal

primary. Johnson was barely able
10 defeai Eugene McCanhy. A<l
dldonally, the notion appeared lO
be more divided by both racial
tensions and th,c Vlctnam War four more years of Johnson to
a Nixon admJnlstratlon..
After the reaction to the Tet
offensive an.cl the New Hampshire
prirnary. the Democratic splltwas
obvious. Th.e coalition of Southern
conservatives. labor. tnteUecruals
and mlnoriry groups-which had
constituted the Democratic PartY
since tbe da.ys of Fronklln Roose
ve.lt was spllr, and splh deeply.
No longer could Kennedy stay
out of the race on the excuse
thaI Ir would be divisive. It now
became a decision of practical
pcllliclll co0slderailons and Ken
nedy' s own consc-lenc~ Did he
really ,oppose Johnson enough to
challenge his nominallon and did
he have a chance of defeating
him If he did make the fight.
Kennedy decided "Yes."
He knew the McCarthy alone
would not be able to deny John
son the nomtnatlon. He bad
neither the money nor the back

Foreign Aid
To the Editor:
I woul<I like 10 express my hlgil
regard and respect to Senator
Morse. The speech he delivered
on Sunday. April 21, 1968, "For
eign Aid Forever?" ts a contro
versial topic nowadays. They
are controversial tdc.as not only
In 1he United Stales but also In
ali the so-called underdeveloped
nations ln the world.
Senator Morse told the audt,..
ence the facts and consequences
of {ore.Igo aid. tie revealed lO
the audience what foreign ald
really Is. As he mentioned In
his speech, aid Is not really de
voted to progress ln rat.sing the
standard of llvlng of the poor
nations. but to the minority load
ers.
All of Ihe underdeveloped coun
rrles hove political. economic and
cultural differences. The con
trlbullon of aid depends on the
country's standing. In the case
of a country which Is ruled by a
dictalor or an autocrat the ald
may have an lnslgnlflca.0I cffecL
The rut.er uses th.e old fo::-his
own personal advancement. He
strengthens his political power
In tbe military and uses It to
Increase his support. The ald
Is going only as far us his pockc1.
The masses of people suffer Crom
illiteracy, poverty and disease.
These facts should be realized by
the policy makers of the United
States and tbey must review their
policy, To whom Is the United
States giving aid and for whaI
purpose Is It lO be used? People
are raJslng quesUons e:Ye.ry time
they are Informed that their coun
try got a loan from the United
States. Th•y still are suffering
and tbey ask, • 'Where Is the
money going?''
One of the biggest segments ot
aid from the United States Is
m!Umry aid. Tanks, guns, and
bombs are not capital. ln other
words. they are not producdv~
Today backward nations need
bread. nor bullets. 1 am not
awar:e that all nations should have
defense programs for nadonal
security. In order to encourage
foreign investment a coWJtry
must be polltlcally stable, and
able to enforce the law. TI,e
other main objective oC old may
be to prevent communist aggres
sion. But I protest against chis
policy bccnuse the llulk of the aid
should not go to the military sec
tor. It should be In proportlon
of need to the other sectors.
This money given to military aid
is needc.-d for other purposes thnn
those whJ.eh the policy makers of
the United Stn1es have provided
for.
Military aid is used to expand
rerrltorllll boW1daries. Mill"1ry

don't believe thnt a country like Kenya or Somalia poses a -

Military aid Is also u...i to

I think tbe United Stao,s ■Id

mU!tary aid and the policy shi>uld
be changed to only economic aid.
