THE POLITICAL MILL
Government by CONGRESS Demanded
BY GOULD LINCOLN

man is Democratic National
Chairman Paul M. Butler.
Before detailing Its latest
program. the Advisory Coun-
Gil had this to say: "Only
with q Democratic President
and a Democratic Congress
can the country realize its
full potential. But events
and human needs will not
stand still to await Janu-
AIRY, 1861 (when the next
President Of the United
States will enter the White
House). We Democrats must
fight for our program every
day and achieve as much
constructive legislation as
possible"
One Of the items of this
program, under the head
ing Of mutual security, is
the proposal, approved by
the Democratic controlled
Foreign Relations Commit
tee OF the Senate, calling for
q continuing authority Of
81 billion a year for i've
years "a total Of S. billion
for the Development Loan
Fund to aid underdeveloped
nations.
Byrd Opposes Plan
Senator Harry Flood Byrd
Of Virginia. whose standing
as a Democrat no one viii
challenge and who Is chair
man of the Senate Finance
Committee, said Of this pro-
posal:
II sincerely hope all the
people of the United States
interested in sound and Or
derby finance. the President
and the fiscal agencies of
his administration, and
members of Congress will
oppose this amendment ito
the Mutual Security bill)."
Senator Byrd said nothing
could be more fiscally IRE.
sponsible than this proposal"
which would authorize the
sale of IS billion in United
States Government bonds, d.
rectly increasing the Fed
eral debt by this amount"
Other proposals Of the
Advisory Council which
would affect the fiscal situa-
ton of the Federal Govern
ment-and through it the
economy Of the country
include more money for pub
lie housing than the admins
tration recommends, money
for aid to depressed areas"
of the country, despite the
improvement in business and
employment generally; a
major revision Of the farm
program-which, if certain
Democrats have their way.
would still further increase
the tremendous financial
burden on the Federal Gov
eminent and the taxpayers.
The Advisory Council, like
some of the Democrats in
Congress, takes the position
that the 1858 congressional
elections were q mandate"
to spend money for all kinds
Of social benefits, no matter
whether the Government has
the money or not-and 1t
does not. The American dol
lar now is worth just 48
cents of what it was worth
in 1899, and if inflationary
measures continue, it might
eventually be worth no more
than a thin dime.
Decidedly, government by
the liberals in Congress could
have its drawbacks.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

So many people never care,
in this respect.
They would please the Eng
lish physician.
The man on the bus kept
talking away, however. until
he had talked himself into
the role Of the bore.
Perhaps radio ''personali-
ties" show us the bore palmer
than other men. They finally
come to the positive point
where the listener can stand
them no longer.
Quick. Jones, the knob!
Of goes the set, and that's
modern radio for you.
4 ~
Temp Jones used to watch
the door Of his bus, to see
if the man was coming down
the platform.
If he saw him, he shrank
in his seat. hoping against
hope that he would not be
seen.
OF course, he always was.
The man had a searching
eye as well as a loose tongue.
There was no escaping
from his ministrations, his
lively chatter.
Jones came to feel ashamed
Of himself for finding him
too much a good thing. After
all, the man was intelligent,
kindly and communicative.
If he had a few cold germs
to throw in your direction.
you probably caught no cold
from him but from the fat
lady who sneezed in your
lace as Sne pent over to sit
down.
This seems to be the latest
transit nuisance. The person
takes a seat right behind
you, and as he sits, he bends
forward until his face is
close to yours.
Then. Of course, he sneezes.
Just why, with his lowered
face, he finds it necessary to
turn directly into the VIC
TINS face. is unknown at
this writing.
Maybe that English physi-
clan who says we should all
stop speaking on buses would
know the answer.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-06-16

An English physician has
suggested a new way to cut
down on the incidence Of
catching cold.
Stop talking on public
transit.
This would do it, he says.
The closed mouth, in med
ical lingo, minimizes the
spread of infection.
Not talking, in all kinds of
public places, would achieve
the same results.
Any place where large num-
bers OF people stand with
mouths and noses in proxim-
ity offers a danger to the
susceptible person.
Keep the rest from talking,
and you have it!
The trouble would come, Of
course. just there.
1t is utterly impossible to
keep some people from talk
ing.
Temp Jones recalls the fell
low who nearly talked his
ear off every morning on the
bus.
He hasn't seen him for
months, but when he chances
TO think of him. his ear be-
gins to witch.
This man, If he had a cold.
would have sent millions OF
germs whirling around the
vehicle as it went downtown.
He never stopped talking.
No British physician could
stop him for a second.
What did he talk about?
Anything and everything,
with the accent on the me-
chanical.
The world Of men seems
to be divided into two sorts.
the mechanical, and the lit
erary.
This is a makeshift divi-
sion, it is true. but it helps
explain humanity.
The mechanical man likes
wheels and things that 60
around.
The literary man likes best
words and the things they
can do.
The mechanical man likes
to go places, see things and
make gadgets work.
The literary temperament
comes closer to the Buddha
mind. 1t is willing to be still.
4 X
Jones' talkative friend was
never still for a moment. His
tongue kept wagging.
At first, Jones was in
trigued. He admired the man
for his way with words, and
his plain determination to be
entertaining.

The Democratic Advisory
Council has, as usual. issued
a blast at the Eisenhower
administration. This time 1t
is virtually demanding parlia-
mentary government gov
eminent by Congress. It
even urges that the people
Of the United States would
prefer to have the Demo-
cratic Congress run the
Government. 1t objects seri-
ously to the use Of the veto
power by President Eisen-
hover to halt inflationary
programs Of the Democrats.
This latest report by the
Democratic Advisory Coun-
Gil, which would sweep aside
the veto power Of the Presi-
dent II the council had its
way, does not take into ac-
count the fact that less than
three years ago the people
reaftirmed their confidence
in President Eisenhower by
a tremendous vote, with only
seven States Of the Union
voting for his Democratic
opponent. Adlai Stevenson.
1t also does not take into
account the fact that, judg-
ing from all kinds Of popu-
larity tests. President Eisen-
hover would be reelected il
there were q vote today for
President.
The Advisory Council,
which is dominated by the
leftist wing of the Demo-
cratic Party in its member
ship, insists that it repre-
sents a majority of the
American people. 1t seeks
to tell the Democratic-con-
trolled Congress that it must
enact the legislative program
1t desires and approves. In
deed, it criticizes the Demo-
cratic leadership of Con-
gress-as it has done in the
past - because that leader
ship has not performed as
the council thinks it should.
MOderates Have Hand
The truth is. the con-
gressional leadership has
taken into consideration the
fact that there are many
moderates and even conserv-
atives in the Democratic
Party, outside as well as in
side the Congress. The lead
ership. which primarily
means Majority Leader Lyn-
don B. johnson Of Texas on
the Senate side of the Capt.
tol and Speaker Sam Ray
burn Of Texas on the House
side. is concerned with get
ting things done-that is,
legislation and appropria-
tions-in the best interests,
as 1t sees it, Of the whole
people.
The Democratic Advisory
Council includes in its mem
bership Adlai Stevenson,
former President Truman,
Senator Hubert Humphrey
OF Minnesota, Gov. Mennen
Williams Of Michigan and
other leading figures of the
party from the North and
West but does not include
either Senator Johnson or
Speaker Rayburn who de-
clined membership, and
while it does contain two
Democratic Senators (the
other is Senator Kefauver of
TENNESSEE. it has no Demo-
cratic member of the House
in its ranks. Its officio chair

ASTRONOMY NOTES
 By OLAF HALVERSON

A procession of fine constella- tions comes marching up the east ern sky in the evening. Bootes is in the lead, followed by Corona, Hercules, Lyra, and Cygnus.
 The stars in the constellation BoOtes outline the figure of a large kite with brilliant Arcturus at the point where the tail is at tached. Follow the curve of the Great Dipper handle around past it's end, and it will direct you to this star. Arcturus is a zero mag nitude star of somewhat reddish hue.
 Eastward from the kite of Bootes there is a semicircle of stars. This is Corona Borealis, the Northern Crown. Its brightest star of the End magnitude, is Comma, the Gem of the Crown" !"
 Hercules comes next and some of it's brighter stars form a figure resembling a large butterfly. The star cluster in Hercules is of great interest.

PERT Peppery Teresa
BY JOSEPH B. BYRNEs

Peppery little Teresa Brewer, who adj
mittedly has been In show business since her
debut at the tender age of 2, has lived music
music, music Consequently she has a keen
sense of timing
However, the wiseacres along Tin Pan
Alley lifted an eyebrow over Teresa's recently
created tempest in q teapot by getting herself
fired from Perry Como's summer replacement
show, Perry Presents Some of them felt her
timing was way OF. Others weren't so sure
The incident created interest in the otherwise
dull summer TV doldrums.
The fact is neither side need worry about
the petite songStress with the big voice Tipping
her lid, from professional standpoint, that is
Teresa told us she wanted to set the record
straight when we called her the other day
at her 14-room New Rochelle N Y, home.
First of, she said:
II didn't see any need for the big hassle
my leaving the show eventually caused
II didn't do it for publicity. I wasn't mad
at anybody on the show I merely let it be
known that, If possible, would like to leave
after seven shows. But made it clear that
would stay on for the full 10 weeks If it proved
too inconvenient.
"The next thing knew the producers,
Roncon called my agents and told me / could
quit as Of now. In short, was fired"
Teresa fastened to add that her forth
coming appearances for Ed Sullivan that old
hand at catching fired talent on the first bounce,
had nothing to do with her leaving Perry
Presents.
We got the distinct impression that Teresa,
a fercely independent young woman, has an
aversion to being Jumped with julius LaRosa,
Marion Marlowe, Frank Parker, Lu Ann Simms
and Haleloke. All the aforementioned landed
on the Sullivan show after being sacked by That
Man Godfrey. Also, Alice Lon, fired by Lawrence

No Cover-Up

The Nation and the world at large
should feel treasured by the fallout
statement of Atomic Energy Commission
Chairman John A. McCone. This is so,
among other reasons, because he has
categorically denied reckless charges
accusing the Acc of sinister cover-up,
and because he has left no room for
doubt about the commissions policy of
being as objective and Informative as
possible in the matter.
Thus, in reply to those critics who
seem to be afflicted with sort of neu-
rotic compulsion to castigate the Acc
at every opportunity, Mr.. McCone has
made it abundantly clear-without any
'ifs," "buts" or "maybes'-that none of
the agency's information relating to
the radioactive content of the atmos-
phere and the amount of fallout has
been withheld from the public or from
the United Nations" And he has gone
on to declare most emphatically and
unequivocally that so long as I am
chairman of the Atomic Energy Com
mission shall not be party to the sup
preston or distortion" of any facts
bearing upon the safety and health of
the American people or peoples abroad.
President Eisenhower has backed up
these assurances with statement of his
own. ITO my knowledge" he has said,
there has been no suppression of infor-
nation. q. Every effort is being made
by this Government to develop the facts
about fallout and to disclose these facts
to the public" That is why the Acc
alone is spending $18 million a year "a
total of $125 million since 1946) on a
wide variety of studies and samplings
covering the problem. That is why, too,
the National Academy of Sciences has
announced plans to undertake-in con-
cert with the commissioner new inquiry
into the whole subject in order to bring
up to date its celebrated 1856 report,
which is generally recognized as the
worlds most authoritative commentary
on radiation hazards.
Certainly, in such circumstances,
peoples everywhere-notj just the Amer
lean people-have reason to feel con-
f1dent that our Government is not going
to withhold from them, and has not
withheld, vital information about the
biological effects of past or future
nuclear testing conducted by Britain,
Russia and the United States. All accu-
sations to the contrary are thoroughly
irresponsible.
