Campaign Promises OF Efforts To End

and other minority votes - con-
tains some general statements
about improving congressional ma
chinery to assure majority action.
1t refers to both the Senate and
House.
Gov. Stevenson last week pledged
that as President he would use his
influence "to get the Senate to
change its rules under which fill
busters have killed civil rights leg.
iSlation."
Stevenson noted, however, that
the precise nature of the changes
that should be made in the rules
of Congress is, of course, a prob
lem for the Congress itself - as
President, l could not make the
decision"
Sen. Lodge, emerging from
a conference with Eisenhower,
promptly accused Stevenson of a
"pious, insincere piece of double
talk" noting that Democrats had
controlled the Senate for four
years and had done nothing about
ending filibusters.
Lodge now is ranking Republican
on the Senate Rules Committee
and a candidate for re election.
If he wins and Republicans get
control of the Senate, Lodge said
that as rules chairman:
81 viii fight filibusters as long
as it takes to end filibusters.'
Senate officials said this prob
ably would be a long, long time.
They point out that even the rule
permitting Ga senators to shut off
debate does not apply to any
change in the rules of the Senate
itself.
And veterans agree that as few
as eight senators could conduct a
permanent filibuster - that would
prevent action on any legislation
if they decided that was the only
way to preserve present rules.

You've shown by your unfailing re-

Larry Harms
If Larry Harms wanted revenge
for some of my criticisms of mod
ern art, he certainly won his point
by giving me book entitled "A
Grammar of Motives" by Kenneth
Burke.
The book is study of semantics
based on what the author calls
"dramatism". ''Dramatism" is
broken down into five key terms -
act, scene, agent, agency, and pur-
pose. Burke uses these five terms
to analize various PHILOSOPHERS and
to perhaps lead authors into new
approach to literature.
Such statements as "metonymy
may be treated as special APP
plication of synecdoche" have put
me into a flat spin. I've worn out
one dictionary and had to order
a new one.

you WANT ONIONS FOR YOUR BUNIONS,.
OR FANCY RICE AT KNOCKOUT PRICE?

What would be your reaction if you entered gro
Gerry and clerk sang to you:
You want onions for your bunons
Or fancy rice at knockout price?
You would think the clerk was at least slightly nuts
if he sang that you or about of the other pro-
ducts in the store You would think also he knew little
about human nature in assuming that singing played an
important role in craftsmanship.
And yet radio singing commercials, though they
have been roundy criticized still clutter the air. Don't
blame radio station radio network for them. The
station the network has nothing to do with trying to
sing you into buying anything The blame lies wholly in
advertising agencies, which to think they can in
the publcs interest in product by singing it. In
stead the singing the publics patience and often
disgusts the public.
Advertising is the handspring of flourishing
nomy But advertising gains its greatest results when is
and simple When you wish to buy product
chief interest in it is its quality and its price Models of adj
versng with pulling power appear in The Citizen
day. Consider for instance, Key Vests supermarkets.
You given the of products, with whose quail
ties you are familiar and you given the prices The
information is complete in few words No attempt is
made into high-powering you into buying.
Price is the nucleus of advertising The Citizen has
advised advertisers repeatedly that if they have
thing to SELL to tell the price at which it is offered To
it bargain nothng to say it is reasonable
nothing for potential buyer may not agree with
what you consider bargain or reasonable He wants
know the price, suits him. he will buy what you have
to sell you don't tell him the price, he won't bother
nine times in 10, to inquire about it.
Another sound principle in advertising is not to over
rate what you have to SELL For instance certain bath
soap subject of singing commercial 1t good
soap; all bath soaps, far know, good for all
of them conform with the requirements of Pure Foods
and Drugs Act the best law far protecting the pur
chasing public concerned that has been adopted by
congress.
After you get earful of singing about this soap
question intones 1T brings your skin of
the shadows into the light of new loneliness"
In advertising anything else DON'T underrate the
public mind which, in the aggregate quick to pounce
upon the ys that fesoon any statement The American
public mind has been and still is the dominant factor in
way of living.

WASHINGTON R - Political
campaign promises of an effort to
end Senate filbusters are produc-
ing some knowing smiles from Sen
ate veterans these days.
They recall that it has been at
tempted many times, most recent
ly in 1949, and has invariably
failed.
Both Gov. Adlai Stevenson, Dem
Ocratic presidential candidate, and
Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge (R..
Mass.), a booster for Dwight D
Eisenhower, the Republican nom.
inee, have pointed up the filibuster
issue during the current campaign
A filibuster is simply a protract-
ed debate or talk to prevent a vote
on controversial issue. In recent
years in the Senate this usually
has involved such civil rights leg
islation as anti poll tax, anti
racial segregation or similar pro-
posals.
Under a long respected tradition
of unlimited debate, Senate rules
now make it virtually impossible
to end filibuster unless at least
ga senators - two thirds of the
So are willing to do this and
stay on the job for long hours to
accomplish it.
Technically test of cloture -
or limiting debate to obtain a
vote can be obtained if 16 SEN
ators sign petition.
The difficulty comes in muster
ing enough senators to approve
what opponents always call "a gag
rule"
Usually Southern Democrats line
up almost solidly against cloture
and with the aid of 10 or IL sena-
enough votes - 80 - to block such
attempts.

year - in an Obvious bid for Negro

HOLLYWOOD
NOTES
By BOB. THOMAS

HOLLYWOOD LR - Yep, I'm
doing it again. And darned if l
don't like it."
This was Will Rogers Jr., talk
ing. The same fellow who told me
a few months ago that his job por
traying his father would be strict
ly one-shot affair in films. He
claimed he didn't have the talent,
desire or energy to pursue
steady career as an actor.
But now he's back before the
cameras. He's starring with Mar
guerite Chapman in Life, Liberty
and 0rrin Dooley," a television
film being made by screen gems
for the Ford Theater. He plays an
excl who returns to grammar
school to finish his education. That
would seem to require no acting
nor Stanford man and former
congressman like Rogers.
''It does take lot Of acting"
admitted Rogers in a drawl that
is combination of Oklahoma and
Beverly Hills. "But fortunately,
the studio had me studying with
a drama coach for a couple of
days. And we have three days re-
hearsal, so that helps. Pm not like
an experienced actor, who could
pick up any part and read it right
off. It takes great deal of prac-
tice for an amateur like me-"
well, l don't know" he said
in contrast to his previous firm
ness against it. 81 won't do any

cept in the Eddie Cantor biog-

Wills father lived longer in the
story than he did in real life. The
main thing / was worried about
was what the rest of the family
and our friends in Oklahoma would
think about it. But when he showed
it to them in Claremore, they
thought it was fine.
"The business in big cities was
not up to expectations, but it's do
ing well in the smaller towns. We
stand to make some money from
it, since we have a percentage.
"As for my own performance,
/ can't say. | did whatever Michael
Curtiz, the director, told me tc
do. Whatever credit or blame
there is belongs to him"
Will said the picture changed
his life in some respects. When
he stopped at the Algonquin Hotel
recently, a young voice telephoned
and asked if he were coming to
the lobby soon. He said yes, and
was greeted by 30 young auto
graph seekers. THAT never hap
pened to me before" he said.
Aside from acting and newSpa-
per business, Win is keeping his
finger in politics. He said he won't
run for public office again, but he
will campaign for Gov. Stevenson.
He is also a leader of the Holly
wood committee for the Democrat
ic nominee and helps supervise
the making of one and 5-minute
TV ads for the campaign.
"Yes. Wen have singing com
mercials, too" he remarked.
