Troy had Stateside army assignment which
convinced him that there were many too
many forms and reports in military affairs.
Gazing idly at a strip Of fly paper in mess

preparing Daily Fly Casualty Report in
the typographical and literary style Of stand
ard army regulations. So every day Troy
began forwarding his reports through regi-
ment, division and corps up to the Penta-
gon IN Washington, on the number of flies
trapped by each strip Of fly paper in the
company mess hall. He correlated the num-
Der of fatalities with the length of fly paper,
wind direction, and SO forth. He kept this
up for month or so. Then one day he got
a telephone call from a sergeant of another
company.

SENATOR
SAM Erwin
! SAYS /

WASHINGTON - The first ses-
sion of the S7th Congress is now
being analysed by the people. !
would describe it as a moderate"
Congress as has the noted news
columnist William S. White. Mr..
White said that it could not be
called either liberal or conservative
in its thinking. While there seem to
be some impressions to the con-
trary, and there has been some eff
fort to make it appear that this
has been a somewhat radical Con-
gress, the work of this Congress
has been largely continuation of
programs which originated in times
past. / think the Congress this year
passed some fine legislation that
was necessary for the good of our
country. I give credit in large mea-
sure to our new Senate Majority
Leader Mike Mansfield of Mon
tana. He is a man with an under
standing heart who leads by per-
suasion rather than by pressure.
An equally important reason why
Congress has made an impressive
record this session is the excellent
relation that President Kennedy has
had with the Congress. The Presi-
dent by virtue of his experience in
both Houses of Congress knows
what make Congressman tick. He
has reestablished a measure of CO.
operation with the Congress that
has been lacking for many years.
SENATE RULE CHANGE FAILS
- We are living in an age when
the people of the earth are con-
fronted daily with the fear of ter
rible weapons and the very de-
struction of our civilization. This
condition, l am afraid, has brought
about an indifference toward many
of our most cherished principles

including the Constitutional princi-
pie of freedom of speech. Modern
history teaches that whenever die
tator wishes to extinguish the
lights of liberty in his country the
first thing he does in the process
which brings the dictatorship to
fruition is to silence the power Of
minorities to speak their will on the
floor of the Legislative body Of
his country. One Of the last items
on the Senate agenda was whether
to amend Rule % to make it easier
to curtail debate. Several years ago
Walter Lippmann summed up in a
masterful way the case against
changing Rule %. quote portion
of Mr.. Lippmann's statement: "Al-
though the question before the Sem
ate is whether to amend the rules,
the issue is not one of parliament
tary procedure. 1t is whether there
shall be a profound and far-reach-
ing constitutional change in the
character of the American Govern
ment." I am glad that the Senate
in its wisdom has killed the motios
to change Rule % for this session
and very likely also for the next
session of Congress. The Senate
Majority Leader said after the vote
on Rule % that he did not ''intend
to engage in sham battles which
will have no beneficial effect, but
will take up the time Of the Sem
ate and keep it from doing the bust
ness it is supposed to be doing in
behalf of the people of the -coun-
try"
