Conservative Implies KU Faculty One Party
A Lawrence radio station owner yesterday implied that liberal political thought may have a strangle-hold on the KU campus, making it difficult for a KU conservative to publicly express his ideas here.
Arden Booth, owner and manager of KLWN radio station, said at a KU-Y Current Issues Forum that he could not imagine why a person not of the university had been called in to discuss conservative Republicanism.
Booth, categorizing himself as a conservative said the terms liberalism and conservatism mean different things to different people. "The Democrats would not have us believe there is a conservative view."
BOOTH THEN posed the question:
"Are the people who have been added to the faculty in the last few years been of one political party? Or are the conservatives afraid to make themselves known?" Booth asked.
"Our forefathers believed in Christian ideals under a free enterprise capitalistic system." Booth said. "They left us this philosophy which shaped the United States. Our Forefathers were conservative and I think this view should be maintained."
BOOTH CHARGED the present Democratic administration with policies harmful to the moral fiber of the country.
He noted that in other countries there has been some expression of fear of a Goldwater victory. However, Booth said, some men and women of the world have never had a choice at election time, "but if they did there is no doubt how they would vote—for Goldwater."
"If there were no Bobby Baker, no Billie Sol Estes, no Jenkins scandal, or no radio stations in Austin, Texas. I would still vote for Barry Goldwater on the basis of peace," Booth said.
BOOTH said that "economic destruction, fiscal irresponsibility, and soft foreign policy will bring another choice." This will be a choice of surrender or a big war—one that no one wants." Booth said.

Booth said Senator Goldwater is not attacked as an individual but because his policies are more progressive. Goldwater stands for a limited government, more state's rights, the free man's right to work, and a firmer foreign policy, Booth affirmed.
"What you ultimately believe, you ultimately tend to bring about," he said. "The real question is whether the real faith in Lenin and Marx can tolerate other systems, and other ways of life with itself."
Malik went on to say when a communist speaks of peaceful co-existence, he means eventually a communist world without war. But, Malik asked, when a Westerner talks of peaceful co-existence does he mean an exentual communist-free world without war?
"COMMUNISTS believe the Western world is dying a slow death," he said. "I have yet to meet a single important Western leader who thinks the communist world is dying a slow death, who does not believe communism is here to stay."
Malik said the thing really disturbing him was that the freedom which justifies Western values is not felt by the children of the Western world.
"What can you do without objective independent truth, without the joy of independent being, and without God?" he asked. "If the Western world has come around to thinking it can do without these things, then I am sorry for the Western world."
"It is time to tell the West that people respect strength and despise vacillation and weakness," he said. "There is nothing more beautiful than strength exhibited in justice."
IF THERE IS no war, he asked, what will we do with our values in peace?
He also said the West, especially the United States, must realize how useless foreign aid is without revealing to the people the deeper meanings of human life.
Malik called for United States representatives abroad who are not frightened and who are interested in more than political gossip.
"PEOPLE RESPECT only those who believe in and stand for something and who are willing to stake their life for this," Malik said. "The rest of the world is not interested in mediocrity and tricks, but in truth and depth. There is no excuse not to provide them abundantly with these."
He also said the time has come for all people, East and West, to realize the value of suffering as only a part of life. "The greatest virtue in this age is courage to tell the truth and the courage to look into the abyss without backing off," he said.
"The moral purge everywhere can be arrested and reversed." Malik

said. "Grace can overcome and perfect nature. Love can cover a multitude of sins."
NEW BRITAIN, Conn.—(UPI)— Central Connecticut State College was unbeaten in regular-season basketball competition in the 1962-63 and 1963-64 seasons.
"The infinite resources of the spirit can recreate man into an image of health, beauty, and strength," he said.
"THE TIME has come for Western universities to realize that cynacism, relativism, atheism, and despair are not the necessary things," he said. "You can know all the truth and still believe in God and absolute values."
"To be is to be more than yourself," he said. "Identify yourself with others. Refuse to be full when there are those who are empty."
Malik stressed that man comes first, not machines, not instincts and impulses, but man in his person and dignity.
"THEER ARE those outside the West who know the deepest in the civilization and do not respect those who turn their backs on it," Malik said. "This is the ultimate reason the West is losing."
Malik said all the uneasiness of the moment has happened again and again to people turning from God. "It is high time to call men to God, the living, compassionate and merciful God who understands, forgives, and recreates."
Racially-Mixed Couple Fights Va. Marriage Law
RICHMOND, Va. — (UPI) - Federal Judge John D. Butzner Jr. refused today to restrain Virginia from arresting a racially-mixed married couple if they visit the state.
The couple had asked for a temporary order protecting them so they can visit their families, and so they can appear in court to continue their fight against Virginia's law prohibiting marriage between whites and Negroes.
Butzner denied the request on grounds there was no "irreparable injury."
The couple's attorney said he would ask a three-judge court to
convene as soon as possible to hear the case.
Alexandria attorney Philip J. Hirrschkop opened the hearing saying it was a "simple matter." He said Mr. and Mrs. Richard Perry Loving had been sentenced to one year in prison which was suspended for 25 years on condition they leave the state. Loving is white and his wife is part Negro and part Indian.
"Mr. Loving is employed in Virginia," he said. "They have a right to visit their parents, friends and other relatives in Virginia."
Judge Butzner said "the court believes from the matters laid before it that irreparable injury is not shown and the request is denied."
