In the great issues of war or peace, prosperity or reces- sion, the decisions of the presi- dent of the United States affect Canadians as much as Ameri. cans. To most Canadians, the nomi- nation of Sen. Barry Goldwater by the Republican party is a disturbing event. There seems little chance of the Arizonian ever occupying the White House. But even his presence in the race will have an influence •on the policies of the Johnson administration be- tween now and November. And we trust remind ourselves of the old political maxim that the only thing sure in politics is that nothing is sure. The pattern of the senator's campaign which is now begin- ning to unfold indicates that he -will use every unsavery tactic in the American political text book. It is true that Sen. Goldwater is honest, forthright and charm- ing. Unfortunately, these are not sufficient qualifications for the presidency. The senator .also is ignorant, impulsive, and determined to see America's will imposed on the world. The fact that his supporters always have to try to explain away Mr. Goldwater's more rash statements would be downright laughable if it were not so dang- ous. After every utterance, Goldwater apologists come quickly to his rescue, suggest- ing the senator really didn't By RAY ARGYLE mean , what he said about ex tremism, or about "going into' South Vietnam, or sending Mar Ines into Cuba, or what have you. A man who aspires to be president of the United States has no business making wild statements that later have to be corrected, explained, or inter- preted, He should be under- stood in precise and accurate terms, so that both his fellow citizens ,and other nations know exactly what he means, There is a strong philoso• phical streak running through Mr. Goldwater's pronounce- ments. They are those of the rock-ribbed conservative, seek- ing at all costs to maintain the status quo, to reject new de- velopments which he does not understand or finds too burden- some to live with. His strong- est appeal is to those who yearn to jettison their respon- sibilities as citizens of America and of the world. The senator can be expected to accept into his camp any enemy of the Johnson adminis- tration, no matter how politi- cally immoral their positions might be. The withdrawal of segregationist Gov. George Wal- lace of Alabama as an indepen- dent candidate for president suggests that the Arizonian is acceptable to the most virulent racists in the deep south. Sen. Goldwater's attacks on the Johnson administration will be mostly a mixture of myth and misunderstanding. He will appeal to ethnic groups on the promise of "liberating" eastern clwoys FINE FOODS SERVED IN OUR MODERN DINING ROOM ENJOY THE FINE ATMOSPHERE OF OUR ATTRACTIVE ALPINE ROOM Our Entire Hotel is Equipped with "Hi-Fi" System for your Listening Pleasure WE SPECIALIZE IN CHIC STEAKS - KEN - FISH Dominion Hotel PHONE 70 ZURICH Harvest Time i DASHWOOD and DISTRICT (MRS.

He will appeal to the racists by championing local rights, which to the segrega- tionists means that Washington has no business interfering with white supremacy.
