With the support of Sen. John C. Stennis, D-Miss., chairman of the Senate Ethics Committee, Byrd said, Senate liberals of both parties opposed Haynsworth not on grounds of ethics but because of "his judicial philosophy and the fact that he is a white southern Conservative."
"The so-called liberal establishment controls most of the news media of this country," he said, "and cannot reconcile itself to the results of last year's presidential election."
Byrd who ranks third in the Senate Democratic leadership, told his colleagues they would dishonor the Senate if they reject Haynsworth, chief judge of the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, on the basis of "unproved and unprovable charges."
Topekans comments

He was in favor of the march "as long as it accomplished something."
A middle-aged Lawrence couple, whose son will enter the service soon, said they took an active role both in the Topeka march and Friday's peace march by Lawrence residents.
"We've been against the war even before it became popular to be against it," they said.
An old man leaned on a rake in front of his house and watched the marchers pass en route to the parade site with a puzzled look on his face.
"If they want to do it, let them," he said, "it's their privilege."
Although the majority of the approximately 400 marchers were from KU, representatives from Ottawa University, Baker University, Washburn University and Wichita State University also participated.
"We've come here for the same purpose as everyone else—to show our protest of the war," said a professor in charge of the Baker University group.

They fired the jolting blast of their main command ship engine at 9:47 p.m. to drop into lunar orbit, but ground controllers had to wait until the craft came from behind the moon to find out whether it was successful—a tense vigil that lasted 32 minutes.
Ending a quarter-million mile trip from earth, the astronauts flashed behind the moon and out of contact with earth at 9:34 p.m.
At one point the astronauts noted and showed on television, the "ebony black" of space over a splotchy brown and green moon horizon.

IFC cries freedom; Senate is firm
KU's 29 national fraternities have issued a "Declaration of Independence."
A bill submitted to the Student Senate by Dennis Embry, Great Bend junior and student senator, sparked the Interfraternity Council to take a stand on the issue.
Title III of the bill reads:
"Any agency or organization within the university that attempts to usurp an individual, organized living group's right to determine its own social affairs or to coerce a living group for the same end, except in the case of a duly authorized judicial body by the university which is charged with the specific responsibility of maintaining state and federal laws and general university regulations on the campus of the University of Kansas, shall be in violation of this legislation and shall be brought before the proper judicial authority of the University of Kansas."
To counter-attack Embry's bill, the IFC Executive Council drew up a Statement of Policy of the Fraternities of the University of Kansas.
The statement reads in part:
"In concurrence with the constitution of the National Interfraternity Conference and the constitutions of our national organizations, we recognize the right of the Chancellor and the Board of Regents to address our fraternities on all matters that effect our relationship with the University.
"We recognize the membership of our chapters and the Councils of Representatives and Presidents of the Interfraternity Council as the only authorized bodies to establish general policy and laws over our fraternities.
like body outside our system to establish statutes or address themselves to the internal affairs of the fraternity system at the University of Kansas."
"We do not recognize the powers of the Student Senate or any
"We had the choice of either acting or being acted upon with this particular bill now, or further legislation later, so the IFC decided to act first." said M. Mark Retonde, Mo. senior and President of IFC.
Similar statements of policy have been written by the Women's Panhellenic Association, the Associated University Resident Halls and the All-Scholarship Hall Council, said Retonde.
