Schmitz p straight ai BY BOB CRAFT President Nixon's congressman was in Columbia campaigning Thur sday. Not for Nixon, however, for himself. Rep. John G. Schmitz is the American Party candidate for the Presidency of the United States. He is the representative from the dis trict that encompasses Orange County, Calif. President Nixon's home. Schmitz became the nominee when Gov. George Wallace said that he would refuse a draft from the American Party convention. Schmitz said the platform of the American Party was "a breath of fresh air" and could be boiled down to two planks: never enter a war unless the nation is ready to win and people who work deserve to live bet ter than those who won't. Schmitz said that he had added another plank to his platform," At home and abroad, we should treat our friends better than we treat our enemies." Schmitz said that he thought the Vietnam peace agreement would "backfire" on Nixon and said, "If the peace move is honorable, we should ask the stabbee and not the stabber." Schmitz called Nixon's Vietnam policy "treason" and that we need more reliance on John Jay and George Washington and less on Nixon and Kissinger. A former history and philosophy teacher on the college level, Schmitz said, referring to the Vietnam treaty," There is no historical precedent for peace on paper," and that "treaties last only until one party decides to break it."

"Nixon has found that all he has to do is talk conservative and then do what he wants," said Schmitz. He said that he did not consider sa McGovern a "viable entity" and to that the Democrats had "to get ur someone more ridiculous than of Hubert Humphrey" to nominate for pr the Presidency. He said that all of c the candidates-Nixon, McGovern ye Benjamin Spock and Gus Hall-could be run in a Socalist me Party primary and the winner could stj then face Schmitz. He considers adi both Nixon and McGovern as social- Fel ists. "We are not a third party. We are ab here to preserve the two party sys- an tem. All others are phases of social- on ism." said Schmitz. wa an He said that the real issue in the kn, campaign is "totalitarianism," and doi that Nixon and McGovern are not ha, arguing about the drive to socialism agi but "who will drive the car." Schmitz called bussing and abor- ca tion forms of totalitarianism. the Schmitz, a Catholic, said the right see of a woman to control her life ended where another life began.
