But, at the same time, his remarks about morality did draw applause and some "amens." The former governor said: "I believe there is an eagerness among our people for an ethnic understanding, morality, excellence and greatness that can be derived from those who have the knowledge of that higher standard." We wished, however, the candidate had expressed himself on how he proposed to meet the unemployment situation; and stated his views on South Africa, which is becoming an important issue in this upcoming national election. It has also become quite apparent that this candidate has a confusing position on the Right to Work Law. The question of busing to get racial integration under court order is a current issue. It is our understanding that Carter opposes busing "but will obey the Supreme Court rulings," and if elected, will try to put the Democrat's platform plank into effect. The plank says "busing remains a judicial tool of last resort." This is a subject on which the candidate and the platform should be in agreement regardless to what that position is. Otherwise, the people will become further confused by duplicity and double talk. We hope, however, that the voters will find a way to get the candidates to express themselves on these and other important national, international and domestic issues.

At the same time, there is no assurance that buying these players is going ENERGY to make them that strong. This time the commissioner is wrong.
