After his speech he was scheduled to fly to Kansas City for an address Monday night in Municipal Auditorium. He fired a five-point attack on Goldwater, that a victory by the Republican presidential nominee would mean a voluntary Social Security system and a regressive income tax. Farm supports could be abolished and the Tennesses Valley Authority could be sold if Goldwate won the presidency, he said. Post Favors Democrats NEW YORK (AP) The Saturday Evening Post, which has supported Republican presidential candidates as far history can be traced, has endorsed Democratic President Johnson for re-election. The magazine said it was confident Sen.

Barry Goldwater, the Republican candidate, would not make a good president and added he "has not even made a good senator." "Goldwater is a grotesque burlesque of the conservative he pretends to be," the Post declared. "He wild man, a stray, an unprincipled and ruthless jujitsu artist like Joe McCarthy" the late senator from Wisconsin. A Post spokesman the magazine, founded in 1728, has traditionally supported Republicans. "As far back as we have been able to trace its history, we have been unable to any editorial support of a Democrat certainly not in this century," the spokesman said. Fulbright Hits Again WASHINGTON (UPI) Sen.

J. William Fuloright, D. charged Monday that the election of Sen. Barry M. Goldwater "would almost certainly 1 mean four years of rising animosity and increased violence between Negroes and Fulbright also said the GOP presidential nominee "has one claim, and only one claim, to the votes of southerners: The fact that he voted against the civil rights act.

"It is very poor claim indeed." the Arkansas Democrat told the Senate in his fourth attack in recent days on Goldwater's policies. Republicans File Charge WASHINGTON (AP) Republican National Chairman Dean Burch filed Monday a formal complaint with the Fair Campaign Practices Committee against a Democratic television commercial. Burch said the commercial had the full approval of President Johnson and was carried by the National Broadcasting Co. on Sept. 7.

"The vignette in question depicts a small girl pulling daisy petals, an atomic bomb explosion and then a voice persuading voters to support President Johnson." Burch wrote to the committee. "This horror-type commercial is designed to arouse basic emotions and has no place in this campaign. I demand you call on the President to halt this smear attack on a United States senator and the candidate of the Republican party for the presidency," Burch wrote. Support Johnson NEW YORK (AP) Thomas (Teddy) Gleason, president of the International Longshoremen's Association (ILA), said Monday the union enthusiastically endorses President Johnson's election.
