The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-07-16
Johnson demurred. He hadn't completed his sct.up.

Johnson demurred. He hadn't completed his sct.up.
 The president did not insist. Genuinely fond of the ex-caval- ryman he agreed to wait. But he ordered Johnson to rest, and showed that he meant it.
 Likewise, he suggested" that Johnson curtail his stumping tour.
 In doing this the president was acting on the strong counsel of democratic congressional leaders. With them, Johnson's truculent type of oratory is not appreciated. A number of demo- cratic members told the presi- dent they did not want Johnson sounding off in their states.
 The same advice was given the general by his former boss, Bernie Baruch, and by Professor Ray MOley.

 "Ah," quoth the senator with a twinkle of the eye. Chicago may be hot. It. may be crowd- cd. But Sally Rand is doing bubble dance. Haven't you heard? I rather thought if any thing could draw them any. where, that would"
 And then, in philosophical afterthought, he added:
 When 1 wrote them, men, toned 1t. I also reminded them that for the most part we are all bubbles, we in politics; our con stituents are mostly bubbles; in fact, politics itself is just bub- ble. What could be more appro- priate than having Miss Rand entertain us with a bubble dance while We deliberate?"
