The idea of superior men, the idea that some
men are born to ride herd on other men is utterly
abhOrrent to me. And say that this opportunity
that we have, to carry the methods and techniques
and help to the backward areas of the world is
that we should welcome intellectually.
Interesting, you know, that those very people
in our political life who have fought against every
effort to allow our democracy to grow and to ex-
tend its blessings to greater and greater number
OF people, those are the very people now who talk
about rocks of Gibralter who talk about retiring
rock someplace in the world and leaving democ-
racy high there surrounded by sea OF Com
munism.
Fearful people; fearful people. Afraid of ideas
and people at home. You know, some folks can't
bear to be in great crowds because they afraid
They afraid of people - they afraid Of
the force, the dynamism that comes from them.
Then these people who would be leaders, of course,
are afraid when they get into the international
scene.
You have made a great contribution rs a Union.
1 congratulate you. This Convention is than
just coming together to take the pulse of the
times and to what you offer for the next year.
1t is great moral rallying point for the whole
nation because the nation has come to look to the
UAW and to Walter Reuther for moral leadership.
Again you set the example of free men. No
asks you to do the kind of work that you do day in
and day out in Washington and around the country
You self discipline.
You have set your tasks and you live up to
those tasks.
thank you for the support that you have given
me always in Congress and out of Congress- thank
you for my endorsement Coming from union of
your quality and your purpose it meant very much
to me. And may l say that in the days and i'm the
years ahead ii ever there is a real good scrap
around that you think will promote democracy
send 1T little further forward, extend freedom to
a few more people, and if am not completely
crippled and blind by then, will you send for me
to come and fight with you?
Thank you.

Why is it that for the last few years Saratoga

What am getting at is this, hope that in the
recent revelation of these crimes organized crimes

A Greet Woman

ONE OF THE TRULY great speeches de-
Evered before the UAW-CIO convention in
Cleveland this week was that of Mrs. Helen
Gahagan Douglas the grand lady from Cali
fornia who served her state and her country
in the Congress with such marked distinction
for four years. Her defeat in her bid for the
US. Senate from California last November
was loss not only to the people of California,
but to the people of the whole country.
Mrs. Douglas was given standing ovation
by the convention. We think she deserved the
ovation. She deserved it because she put into
such eloquent words the thinking, feeling and
aspirations of our people. But, let Mrs. Douglas
speak for herself:
/ cannot tell you how much appreciate your
invitation to speak to this great Convention, to
speak to of the outstanding Unions in this
try whom put among the first three, and the first
perhaps in the ability to voice the hopes and aspira-
tOns and needs of our people. You have a great
President and you have made great Union, and

you little about the opportunities and the response
bilities that face us as people today in the world
do not think that the principles upon which
freedom rests in this land partisan at all, and
i am else does, except very few
strange people who have grown up in our midst.
But how serve those principles what we do
about what we believe in, about that there can be
honest difference of opinion and there differ
ence of opinion and stand firmly on the side that
the UAW stands

Baseball Probe toHear
Larry MacPhaiI Today
On Critical AT Report
BY the Associated Press

Larry MacPhail. former boss Of
the New. York Yankees who criti-
cized baseball's rules, is today's
witness before Congressman in
Sestigating the game.
The House Monopoly subcom-
mittee found a copy of a critical
report on baseball written by Mr..
MacPhail. A major league attor-
ney said he had tried to gather up
all copies of it after it was re-
jected by the major league Steer
ing Committee.
Mr.. MacPhail wrote the report
IN 1947. 1t expressed doubt that
some baseball regulations, like the
reserve clause which binds players
to their clubs. were legal. 1t also
called baseball a business, and
said it was a badly run business.
The report was rejected as not
rejecting the opinion of most
baseball club owners.
Mr.. McPhail is expected to be
questioned about his views on the
controversial reserve clause, the
draft rules and the farm system
now that he is a horse breeder
in nearby Maryland.
The daddy of the farm system
Branch Rickey-defended it's op-
Grafton before the committee yes
terday and called it the savior
OF baseball"
! Mr.. Hickey started the farm
system while bossing the st. Louis
Cardinals back in the 1920s and
later pushed it to maturity while
head of the Brooklyn Dodgers.
He is still strong for it.
Now general manager of the
Pittsburgh Pirates, Mr.. Hickey
said the farm system is good for
the players, the fans and the par
ent clubs.
He also told the investigators
he doesn't believe there is any
thing, wrong with baseball's re-
serve clause. But since it has
been questioned in court. he said,
he thinks something should be
done about it.

Flanagan, Mrs. Bratten, an en-
ploye of Mr.. Barkley for 26 years,
told reporters that she had been
down to RFC hundreds of times,

have asked about that matter

By Robert K. Walsh

Mrs. Flo Bratten had an ap-
pointment today with her boss,
Vice President Barkley. to explain
that her visits to RFC last year
were merely to ask about the
status of loan application for a
protected Florida luxury hotel.
The scheduled conference was
Ia follow-up to closed session she
had with Senate subcommittee
investigators and a telephone talk
with Mr.. Barkley yesterday.
Mr.. Symington today granted a
request to allow Senate subcom-
mittee investigators to examine
files and other agency records of
the two loans in which Mrs. Brat
ten and Mr.. Shaver showed in
tereSt.
Mr.. Symington returned today
from an inspection tour of RFC
Offices and the agency's tin smell
ter plant in Texas. He said at a
news conference that he has had
no opportunity to examine the
loan applications involved.
Mr.. Symington said that since
he has been administrator he has
never been visited by Mrs. Brat
ten. Mr.. Shaver has telephone or
written on several occasions in
connection with Senate committee
work, but not in connection with
any loan, he said.
Flanagan to Report.
Meanwhile, Francis D. Flana-
gan, chief counsel of the Senate
investigations subcommittee max
ing a preliminary inquiry into the
matter, said he expects to submit
an initial report within a few
days. Yesterday he questioned Mrs.
Bratten and Mr.. Shaver but re-
fused to say whether he plans to
confer with others. He also did
not indicate whether any otner
loan applications are involved in
the investigation.
The inquiry developed from dis
closures that Mrs. Bratten and MIR.
