FREE SPEECH


AS I have been fiattered
by having words Of mine re-
printed In the marmoreal
pages of the Congressional
Record two or three times in
the past years, I feel the
incentive to compose some
especially designed for that
great magazine. Therefore, I
offer the following short
speech to any Senator or
Representative it fits. I GER
tify it to be quite new and
unused, and to whom it suits
I offer it free-it must, how
ever, suit in at least a few
particulars.
"Mr. President cor MI.
Speaker. as the case may
be-: Are you aware that
some Of the Governments
finest halls in this city are
equipped with stages Of in
adequate strength to sustain
the weight of a piano? Our
auditorium in the Depart-
ment Of Labor, for example,
cannot support a piano
when we had a visitor from
Canada two weeks ago who
gave a recital In the audi
torium, regulations required
that the piano be placed in
the front aisle.
yet the Labor Auditorium
is a fine. massive, otherwise
secure hall. Interior, too,
boasts a good recital hall.
Here also the stage is beauti-
full but weak. When Nadia
Boulanger, Frances most IA
nous musician, gave a recital
there last year, her piano
also was required by regula-
tions TO be not on the hand
some stage but in the aisle.
"Now Mr.. President (Mr.
Speaker, as you know, we
are engaged in a friendly cul-
tural war with Tifis. Is
Washington better than Tifiis,
or vice versa? What could
be a more damaging blow
for Tiflis than our passing a
law right now to insure that
the stages in our Government
concert halls be strength
ened enough to support the
weight of a piano? Or, as an
alternative, we might say.
for the honor of our coun-
try. that the Congress will
pay to have repaired all
stages in Washington's Fed
eral audtioriums that may in
the future be damaged by
piano legs.
That will make Tiflis
squirm!"

Two ReceptionsA Are Held

Democratic leaders contin-
ued to hold the social spot
light at two afternoon recep-
tions at the Sheraton-Park
Hotel yesterday.
Both parties were to give
delegates to the 1860 Cam
paign Conference for Demo-
cratic Women the chance to
shake hands with Democratic
presidential aspirants and
congressional leaders.
The larger of the two
receptions honored Senator
Stuart Symington of Mis-
souri,. Mrs. Symington could
not be present as she had
oeen called to Florida over
the week end to be at the
bedside of her gravely i'll
mother, Mrs. Jackson H.
Boyd of Clearwater.
The party was co-hosted
by Senator Symington'S cam
paign manager, Representa-
tive Charles H. Brown of
Missouri, Representative Leo
nor K. Sullivan of Missouri
and Mrs. Alben w. Barkley.
In the receiving line with
the honor guest and his hosts
were his daughters-in-law.

In his speech, the Michigan
governor said his party's job
is Ito wake America up"
He urged adoption of a solid,
tough, fighting liberal plat
form" at the convention.
Senator Johnson confined
his remarks at the dinner to
warm praise of Speaker Ray
burn, whom he called "one of
the most beloved figures in
the Democratic party"

the Soviet Union; and we
have suffered a formidable
loss of prestige just before
the start of the Summit
Conference" Gov. Meyner
asserted.
What had been a sorry
state of affairs one week be-
fore the Summit Conference
has now been made even
more bleak" he complained.
I'VE knew the conference
was coming (and) its i'm
portance." Yet there has
been no planning at all. 1t
almost seems as if we have
gone out of our way to under
mine our cause; to force the
nations of the world to ques-
tion critically our motives
and our aims"
Williams Echoes
Gov. G. Mennen Williams
of Michigan voiced similar
criticism of the adminiStra-
tion's handling of the plane
incident in a press con-
ference before the dinner.
1T is wholly indefensible
that we should have been
mousetrapped into a lie which
destroyed the faith and cred-
ibility of the American people
in the government before the
whole world" he declared.
The governor, who will
have much to say about how
Michigan's votes will be cast
at the Democratic conven-
tion, repeated his insistence
that he is completely neu-
tral" between the various
Democratic candidates, with
the exception of Senate Ma
jority Leader Lyndon B.
Johnson of Texas.
The Texan, said Gov. Will
liams, "is not the type of
Democrat that conforms to
the thinking of Michigan. He
has something less than the
bold approach necessary to
meet the challenge of our
times.

Senate and House. In the
receiving line with the hosts
were Senate Majority Leader

the House Democratic Whip
and Mrs. Carl Albert, the
House Majority Leader, Rep
resentative John w. McCor-
mack, and the Assistant Ma
jority Leader and Mrs. Nike

said. "All so States must

The place to pick our nomi-
nees is the national conven-
tion."
Several other Democratic
hopefuls-"a announced, un-
announced. favorite sons,
avowed and unavowed," in
the words of Mrs. Katie
Louchheim, Democratic vice
chairman and chairman of
the conference - also were
parading their wares at the
three-day conference which
5000 women are attending
from all so States.
Senators Humphrey and
Kennedy were to fly from
West Virginia today long
enough to address the final
luncheon of the conference,
sharing billing with Mrs.
Eleanor Roosevelt. The two
Senators will be back in West
Virginia when the votes are
counted tonight
Democrats Care"
The dinner also marked
the launching of the Demo-
Gratis campaign slogan for
1860. 1t is: Democrats
Care"
Gov. Robert S. Meyner of
New Jersey, who will get his
States votes as a favorite
son, charged that this Ma
tion'S conduct of foreign af-
fairs has been "liberally
pock-marked" with dis
heartening, dangerous blum
derS."
Events of the last several
days involving the United
States plane shot down over
Russia might be labeled.
How to fail miserably at the
summit conference, or How
to lose friends among the
nations" the Governor de-
clared.

partment, lied; we violated

United States 'Humiliated"
Speaker Rayburn said the
United States stands "humil-
lated" before the world today
because it has fallen to sec
ond place" in defense, behind
the Soviet Union.
The country "cries out for
the kind of leadership that
the world will respect and
will know it must respect. 1
think the people are praying
for it." the Speaker said.
ADemocratic Presid en- t
should be elected in Novem-
Der. Mr.. Rayburn said. be-
cause Congress is bound to
continue under Democratic
control, and divided govern
ment " is pretty tough go
ing"
Dem ocratS "have not
hated" President Eisenhower
as Republicans hated Presi-
dents Franklin D. Roose-
velt and Harry Truman"
Mr.. Rayburn said.
I'VE don't turn pale and
tremble when Eisenhower's
name is mentioned, because
we are not afraid of him as
they were of Roosevelt and
Truman" the speaker de-
clared.
Wire From Adlai
Adlai Stevenson, the party's
1852 and Sc standard bearer,
in telegraphed regrets, said
the future "lies with the
party which will have the
courage to tell the American
people the truth"
The former Illinois Gov
ernor said he hoped the
party would ask such ques-
tions as why we have re-
peatedly allowed the Soviets
to seize the diplomatic initia-
tive; why all our citizens
have still not been guaran-
teed the right to vote; why
we spend billions of dollars
storing surplus food when
one third of humanity goes
to bed hungry; why we
have failed to win the con-
f1dence and respect of mil
lions of impatient people in
Asia. Africa and Latin Amer
ica."
Other questions, he said,
are why millions of Ameri-
cans live blighted lives in our
spreading urban slumS; why
we have fewer doctors per
capita than We did so years
ago and pay more for our
medical care than ever be-
fore; why the richest
nation in the history of the
world cannot support the
public services and facilities
we must have not only for
world power but for national
growth and opportunity"
All of the speakers, includ-
ing Democratic C hartman
Paul Butler, who wound up
the program, paid warm
praise to women, both as
party workers and discrim-
mating voters.
Twenty six Democratic
Sen tors were introduced
from the audience, with de-
scriptive comment, by News

Star Staff Writer

Senator Stuart Symington
of Missouri last night de-
plored the seeds of disunity"
which he said are being sown
in some Democratic prima-
rieS.
In an obvious reference to
the West Virginia primary,
where his fellow Democratic
candidates for the presidency,
Senators Hubert Humphrey
and John F. Kennedy, have
been slugging it out, Senator
Symington told the 1860
Campaign Conference for
Democratic Women at the
Sheraton Park Hotel:
1T saddens me-and I am
sure it saddens you-to read
where good Democrats ques-
ton the patriotism or per-
sonal integrity of other good
Democrats.
II know my colleagues Jack
Kennedy and Hubert Hum
phrey well," the Missourian
continued. "They are fine,
loyal Americans. And they
are great Democrats. Any
thing that has been said or
done which might soil the
good reputation of these good
men should be retracted and
corrected.
Bind Up the Wounds"
"Once these popularity con-
tests are over" urged the
Senator. who has refused to
enter any primaries, "let us
move swiftly to bind up the
party's wounds and close
ranks for the fall election.
After all, the election that
you and I want to win-the
big one that must be won
is a great Democratic victory
in November" he said. That
includes every level of gov
ernment, local, State and ma
tional, he added.
The West Virginia pri-
mary, where ballots are being
cast today, will not settle the
Democratic presidential nom
ination ANY more than it
was determined in Wiscon-
