Edsell Discusses Civil Rights
Ralph Edsell, Jr., Republican candidate for the Congres-sional
seat of retiring Congressman Frank Becker, told a Civil
Rights meeting of the Five Towns Community Council called to
consider WHAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CAN AND
SHOULD DO TO PROTECT CIVIL RIGHTS WORKERS IN
MISSISSIPPI that.
" T h e conviction I bring here to-night
is that the times call for a
redoubled emphasis on the assvnnp-tion
of responsibility by individuals
— in every facet of their lives, rather
than seeking legislation to put the
federal govemnient into wholly new
fields of activity. Our system of gov-ernment
has evolved over the 188
( ^ ^ r s of our independence to its
' ^ r:;sent form in gradual and well con-sidered
ways, and it is unlikely that
large numbers of people will now
support sweeping changes in the
character of the system, or that such
would be desirable even if they
would."
In addressing an audience emo-tionally
aroused by the presence of
Mr. Schwerner, father of one of the
civil rights volunteers missing in
Mississippi, Edsell pointed out tliat
the 1964 Civil Rights Act had be-come
law only weeks ago, and that
" I t is certain to have far reaching
effects on the character of life in
the South, and its impact will i)rob-ably
be felt in many unforseen ways.
we would do well to allow
i substantial time for this law to be
fuly enforced. . . so that it's full
effects may be carefully evaluted."
Tagging the call for additional
federal powers "the expedient way
. , . not the best way," Edsell said:
"Progress depends only partly on
laws — that changes in the hearts
and souls of individuals must also
occur." H e said: " I f we are to have
law for some, we must have the
same law for all. What we deplore
in the South, we must also deplore
in the North, for this is our obliga-tion
under law."
Parking Warning
Not Official
A printed warning of a two hour
parking limit is being privately dis-tributed
in a private parking lot on
Broadway between Stauderman Ave-nue
and Merriek Road attempting to
indicate that the Inc. Village of
Lynbrook is issuing this printed war-ning.
The warning, printed in large
red letters is signed: "Lynbrook
Parking Dept."
The Incorporated Village of Lyn-brook
is not associated with this
crude attempt to stampede the pub-lic.
It has no connection with this
particular private parking lot. The
warning is a deception in that it
represents to have official status,
which is not the case.
The Village of Lynbrook is taking
steps to halt this misrepresentation
and usurpation of governmental
powers.
