THE LOBBYISTS
BY RAYMOND c. Baker

DN nay IlOuO I. Baker
Running true to form, die-hard
liberals and their press, radio and
television adherents are voicing
their usual pOst-Congress denunci-
atoms of business and the profess
sions for thwarting pet schemes to
move the nation closer to a social
iStic state
Particularly ranked over defeat
by the medical profession of the
Presidents mediocre bill which
would have meant socialized medi-
cine, these pseudo patriots are now
crying lobbyists" as though it
we're a nasty word. They are refer
ring of course to the doctors. other
members of the profession and
private citizens who appeared be-
fore Congressional committees at
their own expense to testify against
the measure. and to the thousands
of citizens who wrote their Con-
gressmen in opposition to medicare.
Administration Lobby
But these liberals do not men,
ton that the Presidents Depart
ment of Health, Education and
Welfare organized one of the most
vocal Hobbies ever to invade the
capitol in an effort to force this
legislation through Congress. With
the liberals it's matter of whose
OK is being gored If you are for
them, you are Legislative spokes-
man." if you are for American en-
terprise, you are a lobbyist"
Business is learning that if it is
to win in Washington it must or
ganize all of the tools at its dis
posal Going it alone spells defeat
The Administration lobby alone is
powerhouse. When it combines
with Hobbies supported by labor,
rural identification cooperativeS
and many others dedicated to a
socialistic America. it is an almost
unbeatable team.
Two Examples
But it can be defeated. Two out
standing examples of well-organ-
lied opposition demonstrate this.
One is the fight spanked by the
Magazine Publishers Association to
prevent the Senate from adopting
a House-passed postal rate bill
which would have meant death for
many newspapers and periodicals.
MPA retained public relations
counsel and developed program
which included all newspaper
groups and allied industries. The
result was a drastically modified
rate law which preserves Americas
free press. The second was the pro-
gram organized along almost iden-
teal lines by banks and investor
groups to cause abandonment of
the Presidents Withholding tax on
dividends and interest
Both defeats brought cries of an
guish from the liberals.
In spite of these criticisms, Con-
gress itself recognizes the impor-
tant contributions lobbyists make
to sound legislation. In many
Washington quarters they are
known affectionately as the third
House" There is sound reason for
this 1t would be impossible for
Congressmen to be knoWledgeable

5-DuyCommitting
Sought in State

BALTIMORE, Dec. 20 (AP)
"A bill similar to one that
was rejected by the Maryland
General Assembly three years
ago is slated for introduction
when the legislature conveneS
next month.
The State Board of Health
and Mental Hygiene approved
the bill conditionally yesterday
1t would provide for a five
day emergency commitment Of
emotionally disturbed persons
on the authority of a friend,
relative or policeman.
Under terms of the bill, a
person could be committed for
a five-day period if he seemed
to be dangerous to himself or
others. The temporary commit
ment, which would allow time
for mental examinations, would
have to be approved by a ply
Sician.
Several members of the
health agency, although agree
ing with the bill in principle,
said they favored more safe
guards so the measure would
not be abused.

OFFICIALLY-THAT IS!
WWV's Time Check
To Herald New Year

ical year, it seems. Because the
earth wobbles and the sun is a
bit unpredictable the astro-
nomical figure is based on the
exact speed the sun was travel
ing at noon on New Years
Eve, 1899.
Some day scientists expect to
have an even more exact def
milton of a second. Right now
NBS checks its time signals
against its atomic clock at
Boulder, Colo. According to the
clock, a second is 9,192,63l,770

Electric power companies,
radio stations and space scien-

make sure their measurements
