Nov, Lyndon has never had
the professional liberals dis
trust Of businessmen. He likes
businessmen the way he likes
anyone who can get q JOB done.
But from the time he first ran
for the Senate. he was In Q lot
Of ways q captive Of Texas and
the Texas business interests.
He didn't break out Of that
mold until he wss elected Vice
President and he didn't have
much chance as Vice President
to show he had changed. The
inactivity Of the last three
years was very hard for him:
he's got this surplus Of Just
plain animal energy that all
your top politicians have. and
he had no outlet for 1t.
Basically Liberal
80, I think he'll be q lot
more liberal President than
most people expect. I don't
think I'm wrong about his basic
political instincts. but even If
I am, let's look at the facts.
Any Democratic President has
to be liberal. Harry Truman
was from Missouri-which was
a lot worse on civil rights for
Negroes than Texas ever was
and you know where he came
out. Johnson will know instinc-
lively he's got to get the North,
labor and the Negroes going
for him. He will go further on
civil rights than Kennedy
would have had to.
You ask. Is this politics or
conviction? Well. what differ
ence does 1t really make? But
on civil rights. I'd say fatty
this is in line with his prin-
ciples.
johnson wants to be loved:
he needs to be loved. He'll
never quit trying to convert
an enemy. He wouldn't 60 into
Wisconsin or Michigan during
the 1860 campaign because the
liberals there tried to block
his nomination. But since the
election, he's practically lived
in those two States.
Sensitive to Press
"HiS press secretary Who
ever 1t is-will have a tough
job. A lot Of politicians COM
plain in public about their
press, but Lyndon really bleeds
about it in private. He is SUI
persensitive.
"You hear people say Lyndon
Is impulSive or extravagant.
That's probably true of his
talk, Of his gestures. He doesn't
try to hold himself back. He'll
lab you so hard when he's
arguing with you, your shoul-
der will be black and blue.
But he's very cautious in
his actions. II he errs at all
in running the country, and
particularly in foreign affairs,
1t won't be on the side Of i'm
pulsiveness. He could, maybe,
be too cautious.

Lyndon Is q damn sight more
liberal than either Of those two:
but he didn't talk the liberals
language. so they never really
trusted him.
This man is probably the
last of the Popunsts. He grew
up with people who were
scratching for a living. He's
always been q public power
man. He's an internationalist
by birth. He grew up q South

The old friend Of the Presi-
dent leaned back In his chair.
"I've known Lyndon Johnson
for Is years now" he said.
I've always known he was
som ething exceptional. But
looking back, I'd have to admit
I've constantly underestimate
him.
He came up here In 1887
after winning q House race as
a hacker of the 'court-packing'
plan. That, Of course, made
him q favorite Of F.D.R.
"He did something unusual
for q young Congressman-and
In a way it's revealing. He rec
ognized almost instantly that
the power in government at
that time was in the Executive
Branch. So he deliberately cul-
tivated all the young New Deal
ers-the young men on the
White House staff and the
young lawyers around town
like myself.
He'd pepper them with ideas
and gradually these guys found
they were working for Lyndon
johnson. They'd carry his re-
quests to the President or to
the agency heads. I think he
got more out Of the White
: House in the Roosevelt years
, than any other six men in
) Congress.
A Party for Rayburn
II remember once he had an
idea that Roosevelt should give
a surprise birthday party for
Sam Rayburn. The President
went for 1t, and Lyndon ar
ranged 1t all, brought Rayburn
down to the White House on
some pretext and all the Texas
delegates with him. He even
bought q big Texas hat for the
President to give him. I couldn't
figure out why he was doing
all this. Then the papers came
out the next day and there was

Lyndon B. johnson confronts
a tremendous task In con-
structing . base for his election
next year from the differences
of background and following
that existed between him and
John F. Kennedy.
All the actions Of his first
days-from the return of the
rocking chair to the oval office
to the emphasis on the civil
rights bill In his address to
Congress-have reflected an in
tent to wrap himself and his
administration heavily in the
mantle and policies Of his
predecessor.
This Il . fitting response to
the tragedy that brought him
to office Is well as q political
necessity. The new President
must struggle to retain as
much as possible Of the North
ern support that existed for
Mr.. Kennedy while he endeav-
ors to regain the South that
has been falling away from the
Democrats.
!, Any Democratic candidate
must carry most Of the large
industrial States to win a presi-
Dental election. Mr.. Kennedy
was mounting a campaign cal
culated to bring victory with
I out heavy reliance on the
South. Mr.. johnson must. by
) contrast. mark the South and
I, West as his political base. He
must be as insured Of securing
those electoral votes as Mr..
I, Kennedy was certain of win
ming the votes Of New England
and New York.
Russell Is Symbol
Senator Russell Of Georgia is
the symbol Of the Southern
position. His delayed willing
ness to speak for Mr.. johnson.
and thus indirectly for the
Kennedy Johnson ticket, in
Texas In 1860 was the turning
point that brought seven Of the
IL Southern States into the
Democratic column.

tween the new President and
the Georgia Senator is not as

Round in Suit

RICHMOND. Va, July z
tAP).-The Virginia branch Of
the National Association for
the Advancement Of Colored
People and two of Its affiliated
organizations have lost In an
effort to quash O suit brought
by the State bar.
A motion to dismiss charges
against them Of unauthorized
practice Of law was overruled
yesterday by Judge Brocken-
brough Lamb Of Richmond
Chancery Court.
The Negro associations con-
tended In their motion that q
January decision Of the United
States Supreme Court con.
trolled and prevented the liti-
cation before Judge Lamb.
The high court decision In
question threw out one Of q
group Of so-called anti-NAACp
laws enacted by the General
Assembly In 1856. The statute
which was invalidated rede-
fined the offense Of soliciting
business for lawyers.
However. Judge Lamb ruled
this decision could not be con-
strued as meaning a State lacks
authority to define and regu-
late the practice Of law within
its borders.
