CHICAGO, july 7.-Folloi0ing
Is the tert of the speech By
Republican National Chairman
Guy George Gdbrielson to call
to order the G.. o. P.'s 25th
National Convention:
We meet today in free as
sembly to organize the 25th ma
tional convention Of the Repub-
Hcan Party. This convention
viii restate the fundamental
principles essential for the peace
and security of the world. This
convention will nominate the
next President and Vice Presi-
dent Of the United States.
This will be a fair convention.
The only steamroller in this
amphitheater will be the de-
termined will of a majority of the
1,206 delegates. The only die
tator's voice in this hall will be
the voice Of the people-as re-
Aected through their chosen
delegates. The chair will recog-
nize any delegate who seeks
recognition.
This convention has been as
sembled pursuant to the call
issued by the Republican Ma
tional Committee. The pro-
visions Of the call were defined
by the rules adopted by the last
Republican National Conven-
tion. Each national convention
passes out of existence with its
final adjournment, but it Gre
ates a national committee to
carry on the party organization.
The Republican National Com
mittee thus becomes the trustee
Of the party machinery between
national conventions. It car
ries out the mandates of the
convention which elected it. The
Republican National Committee
organizes on an extensive and
militant scale to wage a cam
paign for the election of the
ticket nominated by the coven-
tion. After the campaign, it
functions as the executive
branch Of the party organization
to put into effect whatever rules
the convention has adopted for
the operation Of the party ma
chinery. and for the election of
delegates and alternates to the
next convention.

Decisions Reached
By Majority Rule

Faithfully and fairly, the Re-
publican National Committee
has carried out the RESPONSE
bilities delegated to it by the
Republican National Conven-
.tion of 1948. The committee
reached its decisions by ma
jQrity rule. The committees
proceedings were open to the
public through the presence of
representatives of the press,
magazines, radio and television.
AS directed by the Republi-
can National Convention Of
S1948, the Republican National
Committee will present the
names Of 1,206 delegates and
1,206 alternates. These are the
men and women certified to
organize this convention as the
temporary roll. From now on,
they will make the decisions.
Controversy and differences
Of opinion are inherent in any
assembly. It is characteristic of
Americans to fight hard for the
candidates of their choice. We
see that now. We shall see it
after this convention acts. The
very purpose Of a national con-
vention is to resolve differences
within the party, so that sincere
Republican men and women can
reach meeting of minds.
Where these differences cannot
be resolved by agreement or
compromise. they are resolved
by the will of the majority.
That is the American and the
Republican way, and it is the
American and the Republican
tradition.
During the next few days, the
eyes and ears Of the free world
will be directed to this amphi-
theater. What is said, and
what is done here will deter
mine the destinies-not alone
Of the Republican Party and the
American people-but Of hun
dreds Of millions of men,
women and children across the
oceans who look to us for prin-
ciples and leadership-leader-
ship which will help deliver
them from oppression, and
which will enshrine freedom as
an inviolate right in human
relations.

NHearing Procedure
Questioned by Judge
In Contempt Trial

Trial OF two men on contempt
Of Congress charges for refusing
to testify before the Senate Crime
Investigating Committee unless
television, radio and newsreel IA
cilities were removed from the
hearing room, was expected to be
completed today.
Meanwhile. District Court Judge
Henry A. Schweinhaut questioned
a Government witness closely as
to why the committee permitted
the hearing to be publicized in
such a manner. The two men are
being tried before Judge Schwein-
haut without jury.
The defendants are Morris
Kleinman and Louis Rothkopf,
both of Cleveland, described before
the committee as being connected
with an important gambling syn
dicate.
Comedies Mental Discomfort.
Questioned by Judge Schwein-
haut,y Joseph L. Nellis, who was as
sociate counsel for the committee,
said the committee did not want
the Setup to cause witnesses
physical discomfort"
Mr.. Nellis conceded that most
witnesses appearing before the
committee would experience
metal discomfort. Asked by
Judge Schweinhaut why the
Committee agreed to the hear
ings' being publicized through
television, radio and newsreels,
Mr.. Nellis replied:
The committee felt that the
American people had a right to
know the setup of organized crime
in this country"
Judge Schweinhaut then wanted
to know if it was necessary for
the committee ''in its legislative
function" to inform the public
in that manner. He also asked if
the committee felt the public
would be more apt" to listen if
the hearings were dramatized.
Though TV Proper Means.
Mr.. Nellis replied in effect that
the committee felt televlsion
would be proper means of in
forming the public. The witnessI
added hastily. however. that the
televiSion people had gone to the
committee" He said the news
papers don't have space to give
verbatim reports on hearings.
The defendants are represented
by Attorney William A. Collins.
Their refusal was based on the
presence of television, radio andl
newsreel equipment in the hearingl
room, Notwithstanding an offer byI
Senator Kefauver to have the TVI
cameras trained away from them
while they testified.
At the Senate hearing, theyI
argued that the presence of theI
cameras and other equipmentI
made them nervous and could
prejudice the public against them.
Attorney Collins argued that the
Congressional hearing had "all the
aspects of trial without the safe
guards usually enjoyed by defend
ants. He said the overall effect
was to subject individuals to cruel
and inhuman punishment" in vio-
lation of their Constitutional
rights. Assistant U. s. Attorney,
William Hitz said the defendants
did not invoke their Constitutional
safeguards against self-incrimi-
nation and that they had no legal
basis for their refusal to testify.

operators dressed too sloppy.
The union said If the operators
compiled with the order many OF
them would have to go to the ex-
pense of replacing white with
gray shirts.
The company replied that most
of the drivers had gray shirts
anyway. since gray has always
been standard for winter wear.
