THE SHAPE

BY RICHARD HIRSCH
Director, Allentown Art Museum


Ritually. once a year, sew
eral hundred thousand usu-
ally rational people crowd
into Times Square just be-
fore midnight. When the
hands of the clock both point
to the vertical, several tens
of thousands Of people blow
horns with the intent of
making noise, not music.
,Newsreel cameras take in
the whole performance. Tv
sets bring the noise and, the
electric advertisements of
New York's Times Square
into millions Of homes around
the Nation. Newscasters
ritually rant Cor rave) about
the New Years arrival.
It's quite a show, I'm told.
But Times Square is not a
national shrine. No monu-
ment even hallows 1t with
some reference to national
purpose or national memory.
1t is not beautiful. It COM
candS no grand natural vista.
1t overlooks neither a great
river nor is it flanked by
great buildings whose past
embody some symbol Of this
great country.
Times Square Lights
Times Square is simply
ugly. chaotically. 1t is drab
and patched by day. 1t is a
traffic clutter surrounded by
unplanned. unmeaningful,
uninspiring and obsolete
buildings whose principal
functions is. to hide behind
great blank panels which
support ads for familiar
products.
At night these ads, ram
domly plastered over decrepit
house fronts, light up. Neon
tubes and incandescent bulbs
flicker on and off. Greens
dance and reds creep, whites
serpentine and yellows spread.
1t Is, everyone says, very
lively. Painters even select
spots of color from all this
and call their works Times
Square No. O." Or some
thing. (Mondrian reduced
this chaos to rectangles and
gave us Broadway Boogie
Woogie.'D
In the eyes of history
should we be judged by this
crossroads Of unplanned
streets, this welter of ugly
signs? We should and the
judgment should be harsh.
But, says the optimist,
this is all part of the brash,
vivid growth Of the frontier,
transplanted' into urban
terms. These flashing signs.
these monumental arrays of
clashing lights, are symbols
of the raucous competition in
a free society," This is the
great market place and the
hucksters must shout.

Prime Minister Nehru OF
India says the late Mahatma
Gandhi once went on a protest
fast. until the Indian govern
ment paid Pakistan 500 million
even though the two countries
were at war.
The incident was related by
the Indian leader yesterday In
a television interview. CHS
Washington Conversation, re-
corded here last month during
Mr.. Nehru's state visit.
MIR. Nehru said that during
the 1948 war with Pakistar
over Kashmir, the Pakistar
government asked India to pay
500 million which arose from
the partition Of the two coun-
tries the year before.
"our government was not in.
clined to pay that at all then,
Mr.. Nehru said. "A few day;
later Mr.. Gandhi got to know
Of this and he was very much
upset.

The new dean Of the House
when Congress reconvenes jan
uary 10 will be an "old salt"
whose length Of legislative
service is exceeded only by that
of Senator Hayden, Democrat
Of Arizona, and the late Speaker
Rayburn.
He is Representative Carl
Vinson, who first came to the
House in November, 1914, to
fill an unexpired term. The
78-year-old Georgia Democrat
is best and longest known as
chairman Of the House Armed
Services Committee and pre-
viously was chairman Of the
old Naval Affairs Committee.
The Admiral" as he usually
is called with varying degrees OF
fondness or familiarity, but
with the profoundest respect
from the Pentagon, admits he
never saw a battleship until he
came to Congress Al years ago
But 80 years ago this week
he embarked in the choppy leg
iSlative sea at the bottom OF
the House Naval Affairs Com
mittee and eventually became
pretty much the ruler Of the
whole Nav-ee."
Few Special Duties
The dean of the House has
few special duties except pos
sibly swearing in a new Speak
er. Mr.. Vinson, as dean, will not
match the power Of his prede.
cessor, Mr.. Rayburn, a House
member for 48 years and eight
months when he died November

Behind the crypt are two

New Dean of House
Is odd Salt Vinson

16. He nevertheless will be one
of the most influential legisla-
tive leaders.
Mr.. Rayburn had served In
the House longer than anyone
else in history and had been
Speaker more than twice as
long as anyone else. Senator
Hayden came to Congress q
year before Mr.. Rayburn. He
served in the House from 1911
through 1925 and has been IN
the Senate since then.
Mr.. Vinson seems compare
lively unconcerned with the
his additional title as dean"
or with the possibility that he
might surpass the House tenure
record Of Mr.. Rayburn.
Wants Present Past
As long ago as 1889. when
he probably could have been
appointed Secretary Of the
Navy. he has made it clear that
he wants to remain in the
House but wants only to stay
on as chairman Of the Armed
Services Committee.
The shrewd, witty and some
times cruSty chairman has been
described as running to COM
mittee with an iron hand and
often cutting the military
brass down to size" Unlike
most other House committees
however, his group Of % Demo
Gratis and Is Republicans sell
dom holds closed sessions ex-
cept on matters of demonstrated
national security. And what
ever else may be said Of his
procedure, the sessions are
never dull.

Then we paid Pakistan,
which was an unusual thing to
do, apart from the fact they
owed money on other accounts.
The fact was that they were

were paying them money to

Mr.. Nehru said he thought
Gandhi was completely right
in his decision, but that 1t
angered some Of the younger
Indian people and was a factor
that led to his assassination in
1948. =.
Mr.. Nehru conceded that he
had disagreements with Gandhi
because Of their different
method Of approach.
Gandhis Basic Principle
His (Gandhi's) basic princi-
pie was that means are more
important than ends; that you
may have right ends and right
objectives in view, but If you
adopt wrong means you destroy
and spoil the end.
THAT is to say" Mr.. Nehru
continued, 'if you want to go
to some place you have to go
by the right road to it and not
by a wrong road that will take
you somewhere else"
"Gandhi firmly believed in
that, and I think 1t is a right
principle"
The CHS interview, described
as the longest television inter-
view ever made with Mr.. Nehru,
was recorded before the recent
seizure of Portuguese Goa by
Indian armed forces.
Mr.. Nehru said that he and
Gandhi agreed on broad goals
like the removal Of foreign rule
and the attempt to remove
poverty from the country.

Suggests Memorial
John Temple Graves

The vacuum created BY the
untlnely death of John Temple
Graves will not be filled readily
or perhaps at all. AS long
time reader of the Pos. Herald
and MI. Graves column, I
count his death a personal loss
in addition to being a great loss
to the South.
AS a fitting and lasting tribute
to Mr.. Graves and the things for
which he stood, may I suggest
setting up a John Temple Graves
Award to be given annually to
newspaper reporters and editors
for outstanding articles and ed
itorials in support of states
rights. constitutional govern
ment, and our Southern way Of
life.
Such awards could be similar
to the well known Pulitzer Pri-
yes in the newspaper field. A
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1961-07-07

program of this sort would aid
greatly in the encouragement of
pro-South reporting and in keep
ing our people better informed.
I would suggest that this pro-
gram be supported initially by
Contributions from friends and
admirers of MIR. Graves. Inter-
ested persons should be called to
meeting to set up a permanent
organization for the John Tenn
pie Graves Award. The organi-
cation could be self-supporting
after the initial contributions by
sponsoring an annual award din
ner charging ten to twenty five
dollars per plate.
Many, I'm sure, would be
most happy to support such a
good cause. I shall be happy to
contribute to this idea and en-
courage others to do likewise.
Your paper could get the ball
rolling by calling the suggested
meeting and encouraging one
time contributions.
Cordially yours,

any better or more useful than
the one Farmville has or could
have for few hundred dollars.
Light planes of the type flown
out of Farmville airport are my
hobby but as director Of our
Area Development Council
have had occasion to 60 further
into the matter than my own
pleasure. l have learned that
from a business executive point
of view airports such as Rich
mond and Lynchburg are of lit
tie value to the people Of nearby
towns. The type OF business
which locates in smallet town
is usually a branch Of several
small plants and does not save a
great deal Of time and effort by
using the commercial airlines
located fifty or seventy five
miles away. What they can use is
a grass strip from $500 TO $500
feet long with good approaches
such as no trees or wires and
enough facilities to safeguard
their plane from wind damage;
such as hangering or tiedoWns.
Gas facilities are an asset but
obtained at bigger fields nearby
The greatest asset is being close
around to the town for taxi and
phone service. Many commu-
mites find it worthwhile to pay
someone to operate their field.
