Polio cases occur in all age
groups: however, those under 40
especially should take steps to

Almost half the paralytic cases
last year occurred in children 5
years old and younger; therefore,
it is especially important that
pre-schoof children be vaccinated

Evening star., 1961-08-04
By DONALD WILSON
Written for the Associated Press

If you have ever visited the
United States Capitol and sat
in the gallery of the hallowed
Senate Chamber. then per-
haps you have observed sew
eral young men, clad in dark
suits and black ties, sitting
on the steps of the roStrum
or bustling up and down the
aisles on miscellaneous er-
randS. These boys, known as
Senate pages, hail from all
parts of the Nation and come
here from many divergent
environments.
My own experience as q
page spans a two-year pc
riod, which began April 81,
1859. Since my appointment
by Senator Homer Capehart,
republican Of Indiana,
came Unexpectedly, it neceS-
STATED both a hurried and
grateful acceptance, coupled
with a mid-semestt transfer
from Kentland (Ind.O High
School to the Capitol Page
School, which is located in
the inspiring Library of Con-
gress.
The pages day begins at
about $50 am, when he
arises to greet the first flick
ers of dawn and stumbleS
dazedly through the semi
darkness, arriving at the liz
brary in time for the first
class, which commences at
$3.50 am. The periods, total
ing five in number, are As
minutes long and end at
1890 am. The fifth period
is usually reserved for sem
1ors, the underclaSSmen leav-
ing for work at the end Of
the fourth period class. This
situation holds true unless
the Senate should convene
early (the usual hour is IL
noon) in which case the
classes are curtailed accord
ingly.
Basically. our school is the
same as other high schools,
differing mainly in the time
Of day when classes are held
an. in the time spent in
class. Otherwise our activi-
ties are very 1imilar. We have
Q basketball team, q Key
Club, a National Honor So
ciety. a school year book, a
Evening star., 1961-08-04

school newspaper, and even
dances, one of which is our
annual school prom.
Regrettably, the time spent
in these endeavors must be
salvaged from the few hours
left after we have completed
our duties at school and at
work. For example, in the
case of the basketball team,
two practices a week must
suffice as a preparation for
the games each Friday night.
The other activities are
similarly condensed, but this
pressing schedule also has its
got i points, for it does not
leave the students with too
much leisure time. Appar-
emily this Is a problem
among some teen . ayers
today.
The pages are due at the
Senate Chamber just is min
utes after their last class
ends. TIL. prepare the 100
desks of the individual Sen
ators, which takes approxi-
mately two hours. This task
entails placing on each desk
the pending legislation to-
gether with any proposed
amendments, the Congress
sional Record Of the previous
day, the current calendar of
business, and various COM
mittee hearings and reports.
After the Senate convenes,
the pages sit on the rostrum,
getting for the Senators Cat
the snap of their fingers)
bills, reports, amendments, or
glasses OF water, and doing
anything else the Senators
might deem necessary. Many
Of these errands d e m a n d
running between the Capitol
and the Senate Office Build
ings across the street.
AS long as the Senate re-
mains in session, whether it
be for 10 minutes or for 10
hours. the pages must remain
on duty. The average work.
ing day lasts until about s or
8 o'clock, but sometimes the
session continues into the
small hours Of the morning.
After the Senate adjourns
the pages quickly clear off
the desks and then scamper
Evening star., 1961-08-04

to their various rooms and
boarding houses. Upon arriv-
ing there they encounter at
least two to three hours Of
homework, which, after a
long day at the Capitol, is
real drudgery.
A page is compensated for
his services in the amount
of $3.50 for each month the
Senate is in session. Much
more important than the
monetary rewards is the edu-
cation gained through his
experiences and associations.

as Gen. Challe could have
been drawn into an adventure
so completely senseless.
It is also undoubtedly part
of an aftermath of the Cuban
fiasco. The role of the Central
Intelligence Agency in that
lamentable affair has given
the agency a stature in the
public imagination similar to
that once held by the British
intelligence service in Europe.
In the absence of any proof
one way or the other the most
fantastic responsibilities can be
handily showed off on shoul-
ders of mysterious and sinister
agents" with a corresponding
Tightening Of the sense of
public guilt at home.
Whatever the explanations
may be, however, the unhappy
fact is that Franco american
relations have not been inn
proved in the course of the last
few days. It would be natural
enough if the present trend set
up counter currents of irrita-
ton in the United States.
Unless something can be done
to change the picture the
prospects for Mr.. Kennedy's
visit to France next month
to say nothing of prospects Of
Western unity as whole-will
be anything but promising.

Kennedy Hints
Karl Marx Paw
Affected History

NEW YORK, April % (AP)
President Kennedy says that
If a newspaper had given a pay
raise to Karl Marx as a for
eeign correspondent the cold
war might have been avoided.
He reminded members Of the
American Newspaper Publish
ers Association in a speech last
night that Marx-later to be-
come the father of commu-
nism-was an obscure jour-
nalist employed as London cor
respondent by the New York
Tribune in 1851.
He said Mark, "stone broke,
and with a family i'll and un-
dernourished," quit when con-
slant appeals for more money
went unheeded.
Marx, the President said,
then devoted his talents full
time to the cause that would
bequeath to he world he seeds
of Leninism, Stalinism, revolu-
ton and the cold war"
He said that If Marx had
remained a foreign correspond
ent history might have been
different"
Mr.. Kennedy concluded the
anecdote by saying II hope all
publishers will bear this lesson
in mind the next time they re-
ceive a poverty-stricken ap-
peal for a small increase in the
expense account from an OBJ
scure newspaperman."
