 -» - « EDITORIALS » ARMSTICE DAY j' This week, we have celebrated Armstice Day» A good many of us are too young to understand what that meant in 1918» but we do know how everyone felt at V-J Day when World War II officially ended. Armstice Day should not be just a legal holiday. It is more than a celebration of past victories, or tribute to our armed strength. There should be, and no doubt, is, a deep yearning for a lasting peace, on our Reinberance Day . Thoughts on Armstice Day should go toward a goal of reaching that peace, not by surrendering our ideals of democracy, but by progressing through great leadership, and st-’ :ngth, toward world democracy and lib- erty. Shirley Glidden, '53 ELECTION November I4., 1952 was an important day for the citizens of the United States. About sixty million people went to the polls to cast their ballots for the President of the United States. Republican presidential, candidate. General Dwight D. Eisenhower, of New York and vice-presidential candidate, Richard Nixon, of Califor- nia, his running mate in the election, received about thirty-two million votes. Presidential candidate, Governor Adlai Stevenson, of Illinois and vice-presidential candidate, John Sparkman, of Alabama, running mates on the Democratic ticket, received about twenty-six million votes. Eisenhower will go to Korea to look over the situation and try to stoo fighting. He will lower taxes and try to rub out corruption in the government. Do you think Stevenson would do this? If so, why didn't Truman? Eisenhower will make a good President because he is more experienced about war, avid we spend most of our time at war. Nov; let's see what Truman was doing before election. We all know how Truman throw mud at Eisenhower and the Republican Party as well. But clo you remember in 19kS when Truman wanted Eisenhower to run on the Democratic ticket? Isn't Ike as good now as he was then? ..hy did Truman throw so much mud? Did ho think he would gain something? He didn't dare run for President again. Lucky for himI
