Though the freedom of the American individual is increasingly restricted by the growth of a Federal bureaucracy which intrudes more and more on his daily activities, a majority of the Republicans in Congress joined with most of the Democrats to create Johnson has submerged them in a pious call for a "national unity" which as he describes it would be tantamount to to- cent committee designated by the Democratic State convention to consider the vexing problem of what to do next to forestall the noxious possibility.

He appears to feel that even the present party name is a heavy liability to the Democrats because of association with the national villains whom the local practitioners have long been portraying as scalawags and oppressors. No real problem arose until the Mississippi Republican organization, previously under Negro control, became lily white during the Eisenhower Administration and dissident Democrats took over its management. The rise of Sen. Goldwater to national party dominance, and his goal of getting the Federal government out of the business of government, struck a state rights spark that the clique in command of the local Democratic apparatus now recognizes as in Mississippi of genuine contests between two parties for formed this must be not only tal conformity by the Ameri a choice of the di Irectlon lnjij fiich the coun- L' -yr which frv is to be led to Gov, Paul Johnson seeks preserve one-party rule. public offices at the state and county level.

The reason lies in the obsession with race, in this instance that Negro voters would acquire a balance of power at the polls. Relatively few Negroes are now eligible to vote in Mississippi, the consequence of intimidation and rigged election laws, and the registration campaign this summer was a failure. Yet it is plain to the state authorities that this comfortable exclusion of almost half the population cannot resist indefinitely the steady pressure from Federal agencies insisting that the writ of civil publican candidate for governor attracted more than votes in a state where "Republican" has been a hated word for almost as long as it can people with whatever he does and proposes. It also would destroy the public protections from the abuse, and corrupt or incompetent use, of power that is provided by the two-party system he simultaneously extols. Goldwater has departed from these vital issues in sudden vote-seeking forays, such as his promise of successive annual tax cuts.

And already the employment of adverse personalities among the candidates and the partisans of each side has become excessive. Solemn nonsense, which now promises at least to equal the output in any previous campaign, Is well exemplified by the Democratic slogan "Let the latest and most intrusive agency of this bureaucracy the enforcement arm of the Public Accommodations and Equal Employment sections of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Moreover, the "people" are free to register disapproval of these regimentations by voting for Sen. Goldwater, who voted against the act because they were included. Nobody will be arrested, or made a defendant before a Federal enforcement agency, for casting this vote.

Also, voting is done by secret ballot, which is in itself a protection of freedom of choice. for the next Krock four years, but of the man who best can be depended on to pursue it. These problems are enormous. Foremost among them: How to restore civic order in the process of deciding the degree, extent and desirability of fundamental change in American laws and social-economic practices. How to make such changes with fidelity to the constitutional system of the division of public powers.

One is the official policy of glossing over both the truth and the consequences of the activities of the U.S. in Southeast Asia, particularly in Viet Nam.

urant, under carpetbagger rule. A possible future course for the unhappy Democrats, though distasteful, would be to move in on the newly vigorous Republican Party and take over by force of numbers. This would be practically useful only until rational Republicans regain the control of their national party they lost at San Francisco and resume the party's historic defense of human rights. Seen as more likely is a move to cut all identity with the Washington Democrats by transforming the Mississippi organization into an independent party with a new name, probably the Conservative. This would entail a massive juggling of election laws written to keep the Democrats in the one-party saddle.

The Republican nominee was, and remains, an ardent apostle of Sen. Goldwater. Paul Johnson, now governor, was the winner in that election.

Much of his campaign was devoted to warning of the perils to white Mississippi implicit in a two-party system. Time after time he emphasized a belief that parties competing on something like an equal footing would split the vote of "white conservatives" (segregationists) and provide an opportunity for The Baltimorf Sun After almost a week of their Castro diplomatically.
