In large numbers. we disagree with the Supreme Courts latest oneman. onevote slogan. but recognize the right to decide includes the right to be wrong. With one added word of cautionwe do not think it includes the right to stay wrong very long. Missourians are proud of our Southern State where there are no poll taxes. no literacy tests and that in a Nation where 62 percent of those eligible vote. we have a State in which 67 percent of those eligible vote. We urge our sister Southern States and indeed our friends from southern New York. to arise and follow our example. We are cautioned concerning the dripping venom contained in the committee bill.
