crossed. All of this is of course the Joyce* 's ow n business, but it would be a pity to see so valuable an organization in this and other communities move into a controver sial position in public esteem and attitude, and so handicap the fine things they cus tomarily do.” We can endorse the commendation by the Advance. We believe it proper that a semi-community organization such as the Jaycees should discuss political matters for information of their members, but doubt the advisability of acting as an organiza tion. Naturally Jaycees are interested in polities and informational programs might be encouraged for the enlightenment of the membership, but group action could well wreck so tin*' an organization as the Junior Chamber. Like civic clubs, it can well af ford to be non-partisan. This desire on the part of some Jaycee chapters might, point up the need for more activity in the regularly constituted politi cal parties. The younger men should be en couraged in their interest in political ques tions and strong political parties might be the answer. Maybe a revival of militant political campaigns, with public meetings in the courthouse would be healthy for all. It certainly would increase interest in gov ernment.
