That is hot the ambition of both major parties — te hold the balance of power and important committee asignments *nd chairmanships. Instead of put ting numerical control of the house and senate foremost, members of the two bodies should be chiefly - concerned in legislation for the best interest of all the people. Princi- pfei should come ahead of politics. The National Democratic com- oaittee is making apeals for funds ar. the hope of recapturing Congress j next year. There has been a weak, p<my respohse as voters reflect up-! ch» the past and what has transpired under Roosevelt-Truman control Lhe past twenty years. The appeal of politicians to the people back home in the respective states is not atrousing them and raising the cash, j Look at this state, with Senators [ Johnston and Maybank, national j committeemen Edgar Brown, and a tew other Stevenson enthusiasts, a quota of twenty thousand dollars has been assigned, with a response from the entire state of only twelve thousand dollars. Publication of the list of donors would be inter- -esting reading. The same non-in- ferest is evident in all other South ern states. Those who preach from the housetop “stand by the party’ should put up the cash. A pocket- book talks louder than words.
