ASKED WIIAT his fhiber's po-
sition on coiirti-ordered bussing
is, Carter s'id, "The only time
the Federal government should
get involved is when a com.
munity is oracticing segrega-

should sit down and iron out
their differences, as they did in
Atlanta."
"It's like coming out of the
closet to say you support Jim-
my Carter around here," said
City Councilwoman Carol Jones
(D-Second Ward), who, with
County Commissioner Kathleen
Fojtik, spoke in support of Car-
ter at the Fourth Ave. head-
quarters.
Jones and Fojtik said that
they found Carter's views sur-
prsingly more liberal than they
had expected. "(Fred) Harris
was my first choice," Jones
said, "but for a variety of rea-
sons, that campaign didn't real-
ly get off the ground. One of the
things we learned from '72 is
that our efforts don't help if
your candidate doesn't stand a
ghost of a chance.

port of Carter," she said.
She theorized that liberals
have been reticent in backing
Carter because of an "albatross
image tied around his neck as
a conservative southerner."

All three speakers said that
forimier McGtuvern supporters
were citributing to Carter's
campaigning effort, and young
Cter said that 'since George
Wallace his gone down the tube,
we're picking up some of his
votes."
Over 11 Carter relatives -
children, brothers, parents -
have been on the campaign
trail working for the presidential
hopeful.
