Of Office"
Truman 0ffered Proposal
Former President Truma n
last june offered one Of the
fullest and frankest comments
but BY no means the last
word-on what he termed the
delicate and sensitive prob
lem. : He recalled that he, him
self, became "acutely conscious
Of the problem in a personal
way" when President Roosevelt
returned from Yalta.
After succeeding to the Presi-
dency at the death Of Mr.,
Roosevelt, Mr.. Truman con-
sidered setting up a commission
to make recommendations. War
and reconstruction brought SO
many more immediate and
urgent problems that Mr.. Tru-
mans only specific proposal
was for a statute changing the
succession. Under that new law
the Speaker Of the House and
President Pro Tenn. of the Sem
ate rather than Cabinet officers
are next in line after the Vice
President.
Called II workable
In his copyrighted article
distributed by North American
Newspaper Alliance, Mrs. Tru-
man suggested the following
workable solution" in event
a President is stricken by an
illness or injury likely to pre-
vent him from performing Of
fetal duties:
A seven-member committee
made up OF the Vice President,
Chief Justice, the Speaker. and
majority and minority leaders
of House and Senate would Sc
lect a board of medical au-
thorities to make necessary ex-
aminations and findings.
The seven-member commit
tee, if informed by the medical
board that a President was
truly incapacitated." would
notify Congress which then, by
q two-thirds vote of the full
membership. could declare the
Vice President as President.
The Vice President, so desig-
mated, would serve out the re-
mainder of the term of the in
capacitated President. The
committee could call Congress
into special session for such a
purpose.
When q Vice President sue
ceeded to the Presidency under
those circumstances the va
cancy in the Office Of. the Vice
President would be filed by
calling together the last Elec-
toral College. The electors
would select and declare a new
Vice President.
Mr.. Truman felt that this
procedure could be enacted into
law by congressional statute.
He said the provisions could be
framed into q constitutional
amendment if necessary. But
he added that there is always
great danger in writing too
much into the Constitution. !"
A legislative enactment. he said,
would provide greater fiexi-
nllity to meet changing condi-

Nd Hoover's View
Former President Hoover, re-
plying to q QUESTIONABLE sent

zens and jurists. told the House
committee last year:

decided that there Is sufiicient
Inability" to warrant assump-
ton Of the presidency by the
Vice President?
Issue Raised IN 1857
The question is older than
the Constitution. Delegate John
Dickinson Of Delaware raised it
at the Constitutional Conven-
ton in Philadelphia in 1887.
but it was left hanging for flu
ture officials. students and 9TH
ers to ponder should occasion
arise.
The very rarity of such occa-
sions has been one reason why
Congress has done so little
about it. The standard exam
pies Of the past are those Of
Presidents Garfield and VIII
son. President Garfield lay for
80 days stricken by an assas-
sins bullet. During that time
his only performance Of official
duty was to sign an extradition
paper. He was too i'll even 20
be asked to make decisions. His
cabinet was reluctant to ask
Vice President Arthur to do
anything.
The Wilson Case
From September, 1919. to
March. 1921. when his term
ended, President Wilson was
partly paralyzed. For q time he
was so Ill that he could not be
seen by Government officials.
Some % acts of Congress be-
came law without his signature.
There was discussion of the
possibility and propriety Of
having Vice President Marshall
take a more active part, the
nature Of which was a matter
Of uncertainty and contro-
versy. Mr.. Marshall made no
move.
President Eisenhower's heart
attack in September. 1855, and
the ileitis operation brought
an open and often frank ois-
cussion in legislative and exec
utive branch circles as to the
desirability of coming to grips
with the problem of presidential
disability once and for all.
Mr.. Eisenhower made clear
that his decision whether to
seek a second term would de-
pend largely on whether he felt
he would be physically able to
handle the burdens Of the pres
idency. He indicated he might
step down before the compile
ton Of his first term if his con-
dition approached any inca
pacitation.
When he eventually an
nounced his candidacy for re-
nomination he said he was
satisfied that he could perform
essential duties of the office
and that some Of the lesser bur-
dens could properly be eased
by his staff.
Study Begun in Congress
The Senate in 1856 I'M
animously passed a resolution
for q joint Senate-House COM
mittee study Of all questions
relating to the office Of Presi-
dent and Vice President. This
committee was to study also the
question of who is to determine
when a President is unable to
perform his constitutional
duties.
That resolution died in the
House Judiciary Committee.
Chairman Celler. Democrat of
New York. said he feared it
would provoke partisan debate
and other bitterness if brought
up in the presidential election
year.

MODERN MARRIAGE
Music as
An Aid to
Parents
By DIR. PAUL POPENOE

Children mad at each
other? Try the music cure.
That's my suggestion to Mrs.
OBJ. who writes, Our two
children are full of energy
and when the weather is
good they can work it on
outdoors. But on rainy days,
when they're indoors. they
drive me frantic. They pick
on each other all the time"
You've heard the old quo
tation. Music hath charms
to soothe the savage breast"
Mrs. OBJ? All you need is
q photograph to find out
whether it's true with your
children. Many other par
ents have found the cure eff
fective.
Psychologist James Girard
worked on this particular
subject and decided that mu-
sic has three effects in such
q case. Cd 1t eases muscular
tension associated with an
ger. ca creates an emo
tional state of calmness, and
90 stimulates thought and
imagination. He suggests
half a dozen types of music
that he found helpful in re-
ducing anger:
/. Meditative. such as "Song
to the Evening Star" from
Wagner's "Tannhauser."
2. Soothing, such as
Brahms Lullaby"
3. Music with rhythmic
now, as for example. Loves
Old Sweet Song"
4. Music with poetic
thought. as in Debussy's
"Clair de Lune."
5. ReverieS. such as Nevin's
1.-THE Rosary"
s. Depressing, such as
Chopin's Funeral March,"
Anything along these lines
Is worth trying. You doubt
less know that many mental
hospitals make great use of
music. The scientific aspects
Of it haven't been worked out
very fully. but there's no
doubt that it's helpful. In
cases Of depression. music Of
q lively and stimulating ma
ture is most effective. David
doubtless played some lively
tunes on the harp when he
brought King Saul out Of his
gloomy mood.
Every family with children
could make good use Of
photograph records. In adj
dition. Mrs. OBJ. send me a
stamped, self-addressed en-
velope for free reprint on
Keeping Peace in the Fam
ily.' With such preparations.
