Radio Owner Says Liberal Not Doers
A co-owner of KLWN told members of the Young Americans for Freedom (YAF) last night that liberals at KU are not actually liberals at all because they suppress conservative thought by scorn and ridicule.
Arden Booth, said, that since liberals, as a rule, are "thinkers instead of doers," it is not surprising that there is so much liberal thought at KU.
"THE LIBERAL IS THE man who should be the one to give everyone the right to speak," he said, "but instead, we find that he is actually the one who is suppressing conservative ideas by ridiculing and abusing them."
Mr. Booth said that anyone who questions even one liberal idea will be categorized instantly as a reactionary or a member of the "rightist right."
"You can't be partly liberal," he said. "You are either all or none.
"They don't give you a chance to think," he said.
He said, however, that the liberal "finds his happiest place in a thought-center like KU. He needs a thoughtful, creative atmosphere, so he can create a world he would like to live in."
ONE LIBERAL THINKER will draw other liberal thinkers to him, Mr. Booth said, and soon there will be a large circle of liberal thought. He said when this occurs among the faculty of an educational institution, they will naturally influence the students' ways of thinking.
"As a result," he said, "many of the younger generation are blindly dedicated to the extreme liberal line." He said there is no longer a conservative emphasis in grade schools or high schools, and the conservative emphasis on children is hard to attain in home life because families spend less and less time together.
Psychologists to Meet
"There is no longer a stress on positive patriotism, a real part of conservative thought," he said. "Today the stress is mainly on a divided

Term papers and themes are easier and look better when they're typewritten.
Mr. Booth said a good liberal will become a good conservative "after he has met a few payrolls and has become an operating capitalist. The liberal thinkers have not had to pay their way—they've just been selling ideas," he said.

West Coast Kid Fluff Dried

good health, about which he is now reassured, and support from the people.
"I know there are a great many people who want me to be a candidate and I am persuaded that a majority of the people are willing for me to serve two more years," he said.
