OF YOUR PARTY ALIGNMENT Thirty years or so ago, a Key Wester, who repre- sented Monroe County in the Florida senate, said, in an Interview in The Citizen, that when a voter supports a candidate in a primary, he is “morally obliged” to sup- port him in the next general election. The Citizen editorially took exception to that stric- ture. The Citizen maintained that an elector is not moral- ly obliged to support a candidate for any reason whatso- ever. Your vote belongs to you to cast as you see fit. Be- cause you supported Bill Blank in a primary it does not tie you down to him when election day comes. A man has the right to change his mind about a candidate. -A voter may think Bill Blank is the better or best man in a prim- ary, but at-election time, if he feels Bill’s opponent is an abler man to fill the public office in question, he may vote for him without any compunction. That attitude is strictly in keeping with the consti- tutional privilege granted a voter. It is for him to choose without any attempt to try to make him toe the line of any political party. This question is timely now because the Florida State | Democratic Committee recently adopted a resolution that | would compel a candidate to take an oath that he did not | vote for any nominee of another party at the last general | election and that he will vote for ALL nominees of his | party at the next general election. The committee passed | a companion resolution that any individual elector, if challenged, could be compelled to swear he did not vote for any candidate of another party in a local, state or national election. | The Fort Pierce News Tribune, at one time owned by the late-publisher of The Citizen, says that the “require- | ment of suchian oath sounds more like Russia than the United States.” | The Citizen does not know what it sounds like, but it does know that such a procedure is an encroachment on the privilege of an American citizen to vote as he | pleases. However, it is Russian-like to’try to make him swallow all the candidates of any party. The Kremlin | gives you a ballot, and orders you to vote it ‘‘as is.” The | committee now wants to provide the ballot for you to vote If a voter wishes to adhere to party alignment, that’s | his business, but it is his business too to vote for whom he pleases, regardless of a party’s line-up. We have heard politician say the ballot is but it can’t be sacred if you stamp out its freedom. | | | cred,” Intolerance is one subject many people write about | and then fail to practice.

Fleming Steet. t his standing in the community, a New Clash Ahead For UN By TOM HOGE UNITED NATIONS, N.Y, @—A new East-West clash shaped up Tuesday over Soviet pressure to put President Eisenhower's atoms-for+ peace program under the U.N. Se- curity Council, in which the ‘Rus- sians hold veto power. The battle lines on this key point were drawn in the Assembly’s Po- litical Committee Monday when Russia’s Andrei Vishinsky asked why the U.S.-backed seven-power resolution to set up an international atomic agency failed to specify that it should report to the Se- curity Council U.S. Chief Delegate Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. quickly countered that his government did not oppose a liaison with the Security. Council but that it would not favor a setup in which the “council veto para- jlyzes the agency.” The Russians have been arguing ever since Eisenhower outlined his proposal before the Assembly last December that any international atomic agency should be responsi- ble to the council The United States has contended that the proposed agency should have the autonomous status of a U.N, specialized agency, subject to no veto. This stand was backed in |yesterday’s debate by France's Jules Moch, one of the chief sup- porters of the plan Western Diplomats took a wait- jand-see attitude over Vishinsky's | latest assertion that Russia has }not rejected the U.S. plan to ad- vance peaceful uses of atomie | energy Most of them endorsed Lodge's rejoinder that the Soviets should prove their good intent by support- ing the seven-power resolution, Opposition Gains (One Position In (Canada Cov't OTTAWA \®—Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent’s opposition picked up one House of Commons seat in six by-elections held Mon- day but his governing Liberal party still holds a comfortable 73- vote majority The Liberals retained four of the jseats at stake in the voting, held to, fill vacancies from deaths or | resignations.
