Politicians Start Acting the If Muddy Season Again On a New Campaign Trail By MERRIMAN SMITH WASHINGTON (TJPI) Politicians involved in the presidential campaign are beginning to behave like politicians. This displeases other politicians who believe if there is mud to be slung, it should be cleaned up. Any student of campaign '64 knows, for example, that Sen. Barry M. Goldwater has called President Johnson a liar.

The Chief Executive in turn obviously regards his opponent as a "raving, ranting demagogue." Rep. William E. Miller, the Republican vice presidential candidate, has accused the Johnson administration of "Gestapo-state methods" and of dealing in "sleazy, unsubstantiated smears." Miller's opposite number, Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey, says the Republicans are pushing a new version of four freedoms, including "the freedom to be What kind of madness has which "to throw mud.

Johnson also refer- as we know that President red to "slurs today and sland Johnson is not a crook." Actually this sort of thing happens in every national political campaign. The unusual aspect this year is that it became so bitter so soon. Cries of liar and warmonger ordinarily are not heard from the principals until about mid-October. Quick About Face What gives the current name- calling a rather quaint quality is that only a short time ago leaders of both camps cast eyes heavenward and vowed to avoid mud-slinging.

On Sept. 11 the Democratic jand Republican national chairmen, John M. Bailey and Dean Burch, jointly endorsed a code of fair campaign practices and signed a pledge to keep the campaign clean. The code since has proved to be quite flexible and this is what led Mundt to cast himself Wednesday in the role of Mr. Clean for '64.

The South Dakota senator said the campaign conducted by Johnson, Goldwater and Iheir running mates was "an insult to the intelligence of the American voters." Mundt was not the first to be I distressed by what the senator called the current "low-level Week-End SPECIALS SO OB.ICKXJS AND BffiKGY GIVING Peanut Butter Foil Wrapped to Keep the Flavor In A REAL TASTY TREAT DELICIOUS CASHEWS Fresh Cooked REG. $1.38 99 Ib.
