Senate Hopefuls Discuss Views (Continued from Page 1) population and the senate on geography ... to provide a of checks and system balances. McConkle replied, If I am elected to enforce Utah and U.S. Constitutions, what the judges say will be law. The Constitution, he continued means what the Sup reme Court judges say It means. Im opposed to the present system where Daggett County, for Instance, has ten times the voice of Salt Lake The Idea seems to County. be that the rural counties breed statesmen while Salt Lake County has only politicians. Reapportionment as pro- - Endorsement Rumor False (Continued from Page 1) party left the apartment. The rumor, of course, is unprovable. A spokesman for the office of the First Presidency who was at President McKays side during the meeting said I didnt hear him say that. It was pointed out that as President, he wouldnt endorse a candidate or party and the Church doesnt make endorsements. Hes seen President Johnson and hell see Mr. Goldwater he Is well. In 1960, he expressed good wishes to both John t Kennedy andsRlchard Nixon. SfJks a courtesy, he sees all U. S. presidential candidates but the meetings are really considered private. A local newsman, one of two present, Issued a more explicit version of the conversation between President McKay, Mr. Miller and Dr. Wilkinson. He deAnger was apparent when the journalist charged finitely didnt say that! Wilkinson asked several times for a I message. In reply, the experienced newsman says he heard -- and his notes verify - President McKay finally remarked Dont mix religion with politics. Contributing to the confusion was an agreement on the part of newsmen present not to report any part of the conversation. Its unlikely that later news flashes originated from journa lists who were actually present at the meeting. If the claim of an endorsement was actually made after the meeting, the claimant was skating on thin Ice. A 1922 statement by church President Heber J. Grant hits hard at reprehensible practices Indulged In by some pretending to represent the opinions and desires of presiding officials of the Church In political affairs. Democrats, of course, checked fast and, although little I I Jormatlon was available, Immediately began casting doubt that xhe endorsement was actually Issued. W llklnson aids have remained silent on the subject until this week, One of the Senate candidates backers said Johnsons visit was politically oriented. How then could you refuse the GOP leadership an audience? Were not claiming It as an endorsement. He added, LDS policy on the Churchs participation In political activities was defined by President Heber J. Grant In 1922. In a statement to the Utah Supreme Court, the President with his First Counselors said; It Is the accepted principle of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints that every member shall be at perfect liberty to Identify himself with the political party of his choice and give support to the candidates whom he regards as best suited to hold office. The Church urges Intelligent active participation of Its members In the affairs of state.Such partlclpatlon Is not denied the officials of the Church, Including thp President and his Counselors. It is to be clearly understood, however, that the political preferences of Church members or Church officials are not to be regarded as Church preferences. The Church has no political party or candidate preferences. Anyone making representation to the contrary Is unfriendly to the Church and to Its Interests. It should also be clearly understood that any personal preference entertained or expressed by any official of the Church carries with It only such weight or influence as would Characterizethe personal opinion of any man of commensurate andlng and prestige among his fellows. No person not duly Credited Is authorized to speak for the President of the Viurch or its presiding councils. Whenever It is desired to set forth their views the authenticity of the statement will be beyond question. . "The reprehensible practice Indulged In by some of pretending to represent the opinions and desires of the pre siding officials of the Church in political affairs Is hereby emphatically denounced, and members Of the church, and all other persons, are warned against belief in any such unwarranted representation. The statement goes on to say that the Church feels free to work to promote good and has the obligation to exert Influence against practices Inimical to the free exercise of American rights and principles. It ends: . We stand for political freedom In Its widest and best sense. We deplore political subterfuge and trickery. We appeal for political Integrity and toleration. The pronouncement was signed by Presidents Heber J. Grant, Charles W. Penrose and A. W. Ivins. vlded by the Supreme Court is entirely In the spirit of the Constitution. State house speaker Charles Welch, Jr., candidate for District Two senate seat, urged time to consider where we are going. We need some reapportionment, ...but should give consideration in at least one house to factors other than population. Present apportionment Is not constitutional by Utah law It was pointed out. County GOP chairman Arden Engebretsen, who Is seeking to represent District Five In the state senate, said, I used to point with pride to the wise men of the U. S. Senate. the Suddenly Supreme Court says that what weve been doing for all these years Is not the American way. I feel the senate personally should be apportioned on some basis pther than population. cited the Mr. Engebretsen traditional senate as function a check of the to the house. Freeport enjoyed the support of all candidates represented. Welch; I'm 100 percent for Freeport, we have to lift the economy. Weve lost people and employment, and a legislative council subcommittee Is now studying problems In tax relief. We have to be careful about It; but Its, the best approach.
