...Walsh, who is seeking reelection as an Indepedent, said he "wholeheartedly endorses" the CCA proposals. He said he hoped that after adopting the rules, "accusations and innuendo can cease to be part of election-year schemes...
...late Adlai Stevenson who said that public opinion is the sovereign of us all. I have always believed that the press has an enormous responsibility in helping to form a sound public opinion rooted in truth and fact and not in conjecture, innuendo and/or rumor.

Character assassination by innuendo is hardly new, but these tactics are really all the militants have left. The legal case against the Fly Club (if indeed it ever emerges from MCAD at all) is tenuous at best. Even Perspective now admits that if the clubs are really private property there is (or should be) no further debate. In a choice between the continued existence of the final clubs and government assumption of the right to tell private citizens with whom they must associate on their own private property, the clubs must win. The freedom of association guaranteed by the Constitution...
