Lt. Governor Ben Barnes was one of the statewide figures to speak on Politi¬ cal Forum’s Noon Series. Barnes took a liberal point of view concerning Texas’ drug laws, advocating a change from felony to misdemeanor status for first of¬ fense possession of marijuana. Former Senator Ralph Yarborough gave a dynamic talk on the people’s loss of faith in the government due to unfilfilled campaign promises. In criticiz¬ ing the regulatory commissions and the image of Texas, he appealed to youth to remake the government and to try to solve the country’s problems. A LT.

“Racism is America’s big en¬ emy’’ — Julian Bond, Georgia legislator, in a Political Forum Major Program speech. Bond, speaking to a packed MSC Ballroom, stated that black po¬ litical power would be much easier to attain than black eco¬ nomic power, but once political power is attained, economic power will follow. Bond also spoke on bussing, saying that it has been a very effective way of getting stu¬ dents to and from schools for years. “There is no objection to the yellow bus, there is ob¬ jection to the black body on the bus.” Julian Bond spoke to an overflowing audience in the MSC Ballroom.

Fall Speakers of Statewide Interest 4 SENATOR MIKE McKOOL ▼ SENATOR TOM CREIGHTON Political Forum presented Senator Mike Mc- Kool, Senator Tom Creighton, and Mayor Louie Welch. McKool delivered a talk knocking the state in¬ surance system. He stated that it was set up to discourage initiative and competition. Creighton spoke on state abortion legislation. The Texas legislature does not “want to promote or condemn abortion, but to face the reality of the urgency of immediate legislation.” Using sta¬ tistics involving fatal illegal abortions to empha¬ size his point, he explained that the bill proposed would increase the penalty for performing illegal abortions from two to five years in hope of de¬ priving the abortionist of a victim. City government was the topic of Houston Mayor Louie Welch. He cited the Mayor-Council plan as the reason for non-partisanship politics and a limited tax burden in comparison with the country’s other metropolitan areas. Welch as¬ pires toward a Houston which is “a good place to live.” 4 MAYOR LOUIE WELCH 25
