THIS WEEK AND NEXT A War-- Scare 'Election By RAY ARGYLE The election campaign in the United States has reached the half -way mark. Less than a month remains to the Novem- ber 3rd balloting, and despite President Johnson's apparent commanding lead, experts be: lieve the contest will be decid- ed, in the last three weeks. The campaign has been dull because it has lacked that one great element of exciting elec- tioneering — suspense. But if it has been a dull campaign, it has also been a -dirty one, Sen. Goldwater's charges against' the Democratic regime started out as attacks based on a definite political philosophy. He Vas for minimum govern- ment interferenee in private life, and against the philosophy of the Democrats (and of all 'Canadian political parties ex- cept possibly • Social Credit) that the government must be active in a wide area of public life. • These areas include federal aid to education, public power and cheap electricity, medicare, social security, urban renewal, agricultural price supports and other elements of the so-called welfare state. Something seemed to go very wrong with Sen. Goldwater's campaign right after Labor Days According to the Gallup poll, his support steadily de- clined' — from 31 per cent at the time of his nomination to 21 per cent in late September. The Senator's charges grew more reckless then. 'He began to make asinine comments about Secretary of Defence Mc- Namara (whom Goldwater call- ed "Yo Yo" McNamara), and said that Lydon Johnson was waiting for an air mail letter to find out what happened in the Gulf of Tonkin. Democrats zeroed in on Gold - wat'er's most vulnerable spot— fear that if he became presi- dent he would blunder and brinkmanship the US. into a nuclear war. Democratic TV ads were so tasteless and offen- sive that some were withdrawn from showing, but those that were seen • made it clear the Democrats were fighting Gold- water chiefly on a "war scare" campaign. Sen. Goldwater, as the Demo- crats had hoped, is himself the main issue of the campaign. • President Johnson has so far avoided even naming his op- ponent although he has refer- red to him as a "ranting, rav- ing demagogue." It has fallen to Sen. Humphrey to slash back at Goldwater, with Demo- cratic?, national chairman John Bailey attacking the Republi- can vice-presidential nominee, Bill Miller. Johnson has ignor- ed Miller entirely—this was the man whom Goldwater, had said would "drive Johnson nuts." The president's speeches have been almost -boringly simple. They have contained none of the rousing rhetoric of John F: Kennedy, although in some cas- es the same speech writers have been at work. President Johnson has sofar made no dramatic promises, other than to assure voters he is best equipped to keep the country out of war. Sen. Gold- water, as the .challengers al- ways" have to do, has made many promises, such as cutting taxes 25 per cent over five years, and' pushing back com- munism all around the globe.
