This notice announces the first of two Political Supplements for the 1960 election year. It explains the supplement’s aim to inform the student body on issues to consider in the campaign and notes that while informative, editorialized views may appear. Partisan bias is explicitly not intended.
The piece argues the farm problem is central to the economy and election-year debate. It traces postwar policy, price supports, and surpluses, noting 800,000 farm people leave the land yearly and relocation costs may outpace current subsidies.
A 1960 editorial surveys growing corruption and moral laxity in the United States. It cites indictments against Manhattan official Hulan Jack, police graft in Chicago, rising juvenile delinquency, narcotics, and cheating in universities. It argues materialism, fear of commitment, and McCarthyism shape a soft, safety‑mocused public while urging action for justice and equality.
A policy clash over federal funding for schooling pits national support against local control. The discussion notes widening facility disparities, racial issues in the South, and calls for large scale aid with minimal strings. It highlights the Murray-Montcalf plan and political ramifications for the 1960 race.
