We will stand beside you but only as long as you stand beside the constitution. By Mark E. Anderson Standing Fast by our Constitution, Promise to Mark E. Anderson The case of Willis L. Jacobson vs. West Jordan (see our lead article on page 1) is a disappointing story indeed. Mr. Jacobson has worked for 17 years to help reform his city government and to obtain access to the public records of the city. His efforts have brought little success and considerable financial expense. This nation needs more Willis Jacobsons who are willing to give their time, money, and continued effort to improving government and to keeping watch on elected fficials and on government acitivities.

It was THAT THE UNITED STATES STOP ALL AID, MILITARY ASSISTANCE AND LOANS TO THOSE NATIONS WHO ARE SUPPLYING THE ENEMY (North Page 3 Editors Outlook Readers Lloyd Helps The UTAH INDEPENDENT Editor's Note: The Utah Independent will support any candidate, regardless of party affiliation, who will give more than lip service in support of the Constitution.

Probably no promise was met acceptance both in Utah and in the nation; yet three years later President Nixon reversed his position and influenced Congressman Lloyd and 48 other Congressmen to reverse their earlier votes and to join the President in allowing aid There can be no privacy and assistance to even Mao and his murderous band. where there is no private It all happened like this: In 1968 Republican support property.

STRAIGHT TALK Under pressure from the President, 49 Congressmen, including Congressman Lloyd, changed their vote. Conservatives can clearly thank the Nixon Administration and 49 compromising Congressmen for the coming increase in loans and assistance to Communist slavemasters, including Mao of Red China. It becomes increasingly clear that Congressman Lloyd would rather support a betrayal of campaign promises than Some of the Washington stand by his constituents in Utah. President Theodore are now speculating columnists Roosevelt said: Patriotism means to stand by the counthat Spiro Agnew may not try. It does not mean to stand by the President or any want to be Vice President other public official, save exactly to the degree in which he again. That would leave the himself stands by the country.

It is un- they announced that he is still a patriotic not to oppose him to the exact extent by which Democrat, which is fine. After he fails in his duty to stand by the country. they get in, you cant tell the difference anyhow. A - rt Richard Nixon has always been considered a conservative by most Americans. More astute observers have always considered g him to be a internationalist with a very thin conservative cover. Many were shocked when Nixon, after loudly denying that he would do it, imposed price and wage controls on the American people. This was not long after he announced that he was really a Keynesian socialist at heart. A Keynesian socialist is one who believes in the crackpot economic theories of John Maynard Keynes. His theories were so ridiculous and unrelated to economic reality that even Keynes himself repudiated them at the end of his life. But your President by his own admission adheres to economic, socialistic theories that are as ridiculous and childish as Mao Tse Tungs theory that pregnancy can be prevented by having women swallow live goldfish. Mr. Nixon has not only betrayed his conservative followers but his country and all those nations living under the yoke of Communist tyranny. What in the world could have happened to a man who less than four years ago said that the United States should not trade with countries that deal with our Communist enemies in North Vietnam and now advocates that we have a love affair with Communist China! Could it be that the radical right, who claimed that Eisenhower cooperated with the Communists, are also right about Nixon?

Or any might run as a Connally Democrat, .for the top spot, with Henry Jackson or Teddy Kennedy. And thousands of Americans, instead of going to the polls, would doubtless continue the trek to Australia, Azores, Spain; Switzerland, to contemplate citizenship. And, maybe there wont even be an election. Tis said that General Eisenhower fervently hoped at as one time that both Republicans and Democrats would see fit to nominate him in 1952. Twould have saved a lot of expensive campaigning. Nixon-Connall- y vs. Jackson-Kenned- y. Why bother? Expand the Court? And now, pontificate the it is Liberals, time to expand the Supreme Court. If nine men can be so wrong, just think what 12 or 15 could do! President Nixon may have been intimating such urgent when he said, in need announcing his two new appointments: I believe, as I am sure all Americans do ng (how absurd, ed.), that the Supreme Court should in the broadest sense, be representative of the entire nation. But with only nine seats to All, obviously every group in the country cannot be represented on the Court. The Court cannot, and should not be Representative of the entire nation. Since Abe Fortas disgraced the Court there has been no Jewish seat on the Court, for the first time in many years. Im not sure that there is a Christian seat on the Court. By Christian is meant not non-Jebut a person bom again in Christ and His divinity, His resurrection, and His promise of eternal life. Supreme Court members should not be selected because they represent Christians, or Jews, agnostics, atheists, blacks, unionists, industry or any other segment of society. They should be selected w, according to their capability to represent the Constitution. We need a constitutional changing the tenure of Court members from life, with good behavior, to nine years. Obviously, the requirement good behavior is meaningless since it has not restrained Justice Douglas at all. At least, so it seems. Why nine years? So there can be one on and one off every year. No old men in their dotage. No .packing of the Court by any amendment President. No more .Frankfurter and Warren dynasty Courts. And, incidentally, instead of being able to retire in riches at taxpayers expense, retired Court members should return to the Free Enterprise System or to Social Security, as the situation justifies, just like those of us who put on our pants one leg at a time do.
