buyers, he faces severe penal

The edict is contrary to the
Constitution, the laws of Con
gress, and to the American way
of doing things. It is outrageous
that a builder should not be able
to sell his proerty to anyone he
wishes. He should not be com
pelled to sell it to a person he
may regard as undesirable or
unsuitable to neighbors.
It used to be that a citizen had
a right to help build the kind of
neighborhood he wanted, but the
Kennedy administration is des
troying that right. It now is clear
that Big Governirient will” decree
who is to live in a particular
neighborhood. Not only are the
Kennedys manipulating the law
to force integration in schools,
but they are demanding inte
grated housing.
Who can honestly say that is it
American fon government bur
eaucrats in Washington to decide
who are to be the neighbors of
the Smiths and Joneses of Ameri
ca? It is the Russian pattern of
living that the New Frontier is
copying. In Russia, government
determines where people live and
who is to share apartments or
other dwellings. That is the direc
tion we are going, as President
Kennedy’s edict plainly reveals.
It is not hard for a country to
depart from the ways of good
government. Americans have al
ways defined good government
as a government of laws, not of
men, of constitutional rights and
legal statutes, not pf' executive
whims.
No matter how hard the Ken
nedy administration may try to
Justify the housing order, it can
not say that it is charatHeristic
of a government of laws.
, New Frontiersmen believe they
are above the Constitution and
the statutes. They believe they
possess a higher authority—the
general will—as backing for their
high-handed decrees. Such be
liefs and such actions are what
characterise a well-known mod-
r
ern type of government: dictator
ship. '

AN UNAMERICAN EDICT
Government by edict is char
acteristic of old-fashioned abso
lute monarchial states or mod
ern-day totalitarian states. A
generation, even a decade ago,
few citizens of the United States
would have been so bold as to
predict that any President would
attempt to govern in this fashion.
Yet this is what happened in
November when President Ken
nedy issued his edict banning
discrimination” in federally-
assisted housing. What he ban
ned, of course, is not discrimina
tion but the seller’s freedom to
dispose of his property as he
pleases.
Behind this presidential edict
is no warrant from Congress. As
a matter of fact, Congress, on
six separate occasions, refused
to enact such a ban. Despite the
fact that the edict is without con
gressional authority, the Presi
dent warns that those who dis
obey will be subject to “such
civil or criminal action” as the
Attorney General (his brother)
may deem appropriate.”
Is this America? Thoughtful
citizens will ask that question and
wonder what has happened to
this republic in the light of this
presidential action that can only
be described as dictatorial.
The edict is sweeping in nature.
It threatens every builder or any
one financially associated with a
builder who does not wish to sell
proerty to anyone who applies.
The caution with which some
segments of* the home-building
industry have greeted the presi
dential edict is evidence that It
has resulted in what Mr. Ken
nedy wanted—namely fear.
It is a tragic and ugly thing
that one man should be able to
usurp the law of the land, to act
as imperial legislator as well as
chief executive. Senator John
Stennis of Mississippi rightly
describes the edict as “audacious
usurpation of power.” Senator A.
Willis Robertson of Virginia has
correctly called it “unconstitu
tional.”
The effect of the edict will be
sweeping. It is esttmated that a
quarter of all new home con
struction in the United States in
volves FHA financing. More
over, though a builder may chief
ly rely on conventional financing
of homes, if he has only one piece
of property that is FHA-financed,
and that is no^offered to Negro
