Member Utah State Press Association National Editorial Association Subscription Rates: One year, In advance $3.00 HIGH, WIDE AND FANCY PROMISES Republican wordsmiths, while forging the 1956 GOP platform, promised that it would be a short one. At this writing we can only hope so, after plowing through , the 17 solid newspaper columns required to publish the , Democratic bible, which, in addition to its promises, followed up in painful detail the indictment of the Eisenhower Ei-senhower Administration delvered earlier by the keynoter. key-noter. In fact the only charge omitted from the Democratic Demo-cratic platform is the failure of the Administration to "clean up the mess in Washington." And since the rest of the platform is devoted to high, wide and fancy promises, its length is fearsome indeed. The foreign policy section is globalist. The domestic do-mestic chapters are pie-in-the-sky, constituting a complete com-plete and final divorcement of the "party of Jefferson" from any allegiance ito states' rights in fact declaring open war on what vestiges remain. In view of the parallel ideology so frequently expressed ex-pressed and consistently urged by the Eisenhower Administration, Ad-ministration, only a very short platform text can save the GOP from the temptation to outdo this Democratic fantasy of offering the voters complete and plushy security se-curity in all departments of life, freedom from having to manage their own lives or suffer from their own mistakes plus the freedoms guaranteed by the already ; bent beaten and bruised Constitution. Not all the freedoms, free-doms, of course, since the section on Labor demands repeal of the Taft-Hartley Act and the elimination of state right-to-work laws ! But, out of the 17 solid columns of text, the Demo-' crats did inject twelve lines pledging opposition to the admission of Red China to the UN, continue support of nationalist China and a "continuing effort to effect the release of all Americans detained by Communist China.' And much as we pray for brevity in the Republican platform, we shall watch for similar assurances. Even so, twelve lines is not too much to devote to unequivocal unequivo-cal declarations on these three vital issues. flGLUT S A njii-rm J- I r45 .10-15 S ' 7".: it g !

But, since an nouncing his intention to "depart "de-part from precedent" and ask that the selection of his running mate be made "by the free processes of the Convention", we can't help wondering what repercussions this may have in San Franciso. What comfort, if any, could this startling move give the "dump Nixon" fraternity not just Harold Har-old Stassen, but the others who whetted the snickersnee for our Vice President long before Mr. Stassen dreamed up the pitch that Cfovernor Herter would be a stronger candiate. Careful attention to the Convention Con-vention television may reveal who these shadowy characters are even, perhaps, the master mind Dack of stassen. In dwelllfiff on "the solemn obli gation to consider with utmost care" the man. who would be president if misforUmte befell his chtef, nominee Stevenson pointed out that the hand of fate had elevated seven of our 34 vice presidents to the top job in the past, the man from Libertyville enulH hnrH fail tn frw.no fraol. at tention on President Eisenhower's health.
