Copter Lifts Kennedy
From Prison of Crisis

Get it to me right away"
An hour later, a limousine
carrying the President pulled
up at st. Stephens Catholic
Church. Cheers rang out from
the sidewalk crowd of about
300 and the President smiled
slightly. He was hatless and
coatless, for the unreasonable
cold that had chilled Washing
ton for days had given way at
last to perfect autumn weather.
With Mr.. Kennedy were two
old friends: David Powers, a
White House staff member, and
K. Lemoyne Billings, a New
York advertising executive.
Statement at Noon
Once inside, the President
heard ae call for prayers in
behalf of himself, the Nation
and the world.

Democrats Rely on Unruh
To Tip California Scales

in the University Of Southern
California.
II became a liberal by read
ing John Dos PasSos and The
History of The Labor Movement
at use" he says.
He plunged right into poll
tics after graduation, running
unsuccessfully for the Assem-
bly, in 1850 and 1852. In 1854,
however, he captured the DEM
ocratic nomination despite OPP
position from labor and the
pensioners. With the help Of
some use friends, he ousted a
16-year Republican incumbent
and went TO Sacramento.
He arrived at a fortuitous
time. The power of the great
lobbyists like Artie Samish,
who had run the Legislature
for years, had just been broken.
There was a leadership vac
uum just waiting for some
one OF Mr.. Unruh's talents to
step in.
In the casually bipartisan
atmosphere of California poll
tics, he has always maintained
friendships and alliances on
both sides of the aisle. His first
break came in 1856 when he
rounded up enough Democrats
to elect one Of two Republican
contenders as Speaker.
Becomes Speaker
In return, the new Speaker
appointed Democrat Unruh as
chairman Of the powerful
Finance and Insurance Com
mittee.
In 1858, he managed the
Brown campaign for Governor
in Southern California and the
next year moved up to head the
even more important Ways and
Means Committee.
When a vacancy arose in the
speakership last year, Mr..
Unruh, as he put it, changed
the rules a little" called a
special caucus and had him
self elected speaker, rather
than let someone else take over
as speaker pro tenn.
He is the author of the
States civil rights statute and
of a number of consumer pro-
lection bills.
More important, he has con-
tinued to spread his influence.
AS speaker he appoints all
committee chairmen. AS a key
party figure, he has a large
voice in the distribution of
campaign funds. AS one. of the
architects of last years legis-
lative and congressional re-
diStricting bill, he will see half
a dozen good friends elected
to the House of Representatives
next month.
He has a close political re-
lationship to Gov. Brown,
although they often do not see
eye to eye on tactics. And. as
noted before, he has greater
entree to the White House than
almost any other California
Democrat.
Where his ambitions are
pointing him is not known. He
is often mentioned as a 1866
gubernatorial possibility, but
he would certainly face strong
opposition for that |
job.
Whatever comes next, he is a
man to watch.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-10-29

have noted that, should Gov
Brown lose, Assembly Speaker
Unruh would emerge without
question as the States most
powerful Democrat, a position
with which some already credit
him.
That his motives are not sus-
pect is best attested by the job
Gov. Brown and the KennedyS
have given him in the cam
paign.
However this election goes,
Mr.. Unruh is a force to be reck-
oned with in both California
and national politics from now
on. He is also one of the most
.interesting-and leaSt-known-
men to achieve power in this
country in the past decade.
A Canny Politician
He is a highly intelligent,
artieulate, humorous, candid,
canny politician-a man whose
political liberalism is largely
untinged by the emotionalism
that is so rampant among the
Stevenson followers of 1852,
of whom he was one.
He is also an extremely tough
battler. He has picked up more
than his share of scars al
ready, particularly in his run
ming feud with the leaders
of the California Democratic
Council, whose liberal, volun-
teer members strongly distrust
what they regard as Mr..
Unruh's boss tactics" So far,
he has won most of the fights
in party caucuses and pri-
maries.
Mr.. Unruh quit school in
Texas shortly before World
War II and hitchhiked out to
California, where a married
brother was living. For a while,
he slept in a chicken house
while studying welding and
later got a job at Douglas Air
craft. During the war, he served
in the naval air arm.
At this time. he readily con-
fesses, 81 knew absolutely moth
ing about politics. I learned
the meaning of liberal and
conservative by reading Thirty
Days to a More Powerful Vo-
cabulary' in the Navy.
When I got out, I didn't
even know what party I'd reg
lister in"
How He Became a Liberal
After the war, Mr.. Unruh en-
rolled as an economics major

los ANGELES, Oct. 90
Three men are on the spot
in the battle for California S
governorship.
Two of them obviously, are
the rivals, Richard M. Nixon
and. Gov. Edmund G. (Pat)
Brown.
The third bears the unfa-
miliar name of Jesse Marvin
Unluh. He is a pig, bulky man
of 40, the son of semi-literate
Texas sharecroppers and now
the Speaker of the California
Assembly.
More Importantly for this
campaign, he is the Kennedy
Administrators chosen agent
in 5 vote-heavy Los Angeles
Comfy. His is the not alto
getfier enviable task of provid-
ing Gov. Brown with enough
of a margin to bury Mr.. Nixon
in the boneyard of political
has-beens.
Mr.. Unruh threw his 6-foot.
250-pound frame and consider
able political influence behind
John F. Kennedy rs far back as
1859, and he has never wavered
from the commitment.
The Kennedys, in turn, have
backed big Daddy" as he is
nicknamed. in the constant
i1tra- party warfare that goes
on out here.
Gets 100000 Fund
~They've been awfully good
to me-" Mr.. Unruh said the
other day. despite what hap
pened in the convention and
election of 1860" A stable
chunk of the California delega-
ton bolted to Adlai Stevenson
at the convention, and then
absentee ballots gave the State
to Mr.. Nixon by $4,000 votes.
forgiveness is fine, but Mr..
Unruh, an immensely practical
man, feels q strong compulsion
to repay past Kennedy kind
nesses by coming through with |
a victory this year.
To do so, he has asked for
and been given funds and au-
thority to set up the first pro-
fessional election day precinct
work program Los Angeles
Democrats have ever tried.
Approximately 100000 has
been turned over to him from
the Democratic National Com
mittee and State sources to re-
cruit, train and pay between
5000 and 10000 "get-out-the-
vote" workers for November 6.
They will be assigned to
about $500 target precincts,
ones where Democrats normally
over SIS per cent of the
vote. Their job: boost the size
of the vote.
MY Neck Is in Moose
It is a massive and drastic |
effort to overcome one Of the
Democrats chronic problems
out here-low turnout. If it.
does not work, Mr.. Unruh said,
my neck is in the moose"
There is irony in his finding
himself in this situation, for
his own political position in the
State is secure. He will be re-
elected to his legislative seat
from a safe district and the
Democrats seem certain to re-
tain a majority in the assem-
bly,, no matter who wins the
governorShip.

Rare And Imaginative Ability
Winner of 28 Beauty Contests

The late Grandma Moses and
Earlene Moses have at least
one trait In common, the quail
lily of artistic expression.
Grandma never won the Miss
Nevada title or any other beauty
contest as far as we know and
here is where similarities end.
Earlene, wife of Capt. Gin
ton H. Moses, 98th Fighter In
terceptor Squadron, Dover
AFB, is the winner of 20 beau
ty contests. Among these is the
Miss Nevada title In 1888.
An artist with a rare and
imaginative ability, Earlene not
only portrays vivid and strik-
ing artistry on canvas, but also
refinishes antique picture
frames, dabbles In ceramics
and mosaics and reconditions
old furniture.
Artistic Imagination are the
two words which best describe
her talent. A simple Saturday
Evening Post was cut-up into
tiny pieces, and fashioned,
mosaic style into modernistic
still scene. This project took
four months. Some ordinary egg
crates we're made into m-
ique picture frame for a paint
ing, which adorns the Moses
kitchen.
Some 90 canvasses hang or
are stored in her base housing
home. Tweny-eight of these
will be selected for an are ex-
hibit at Wannamakers In VIII
mington, during October. While
at Wannamakers, she will model
fall and winter fashions. Model
ling has been one of her past
time jobs for many years.
Earlene has tried all types
of painting but says she has no
specially yet, as she is still
experimenting with all forms.
Every imaginable type ofpaint-
ing can be found In her home.
Landscapes, still lifes, repro
auctions, protraits, seascapes
and abstracts bedeck the walls
In every room.
Other interests include max
ing her own clothes, teaching an
art class at Dover Central high
school. and antique hunting.
She majored In art while at
tending the University of Texas.
Her ambition is to study in
