A brief editorial note reflects mixed feelings about national civil rights developments. It cites riots in the south and the Negro march on Washington while expressing wholehearted government support amid ongoing congressional debates and legislation discussions.
The piece argues against a civil rights bill, warning it may hinder individual merit in employment and favor minority groups in hiring. It also critiques the Shaft Plan reapportionment in Iowa, urging caution about federal court interference and questioning political motives behind plan opponents.
The piece discusses backing the plan to invert the federal structure with a population based Senate and county based House, notes the Des Moines chamber space limit, and urges preparation to vote in the special Constitutional election on December 3.
