President johnson today
urged the States to make II
easier for Americans TO vote.
He called on both the Demo-
cratic and Republican Parties
and all citizens as wen as State
officials to join in the effort tc
eliminate restrictive laws and
procedures that deny many Of
our citizens the right TO register
and vote"
Mr.. Johnson spoke out In
accepting q report from the
Presidents Commission on
Registration and Voting Par
ticipation, headed by Richard
NJ. Scammon, director Of the
Census Bureau.
The report urged elimination
Of Hteracy tests and poll taxes
and urged States to consider
lowering the voting age to "a
among steps to make it easier
for citizens to register and
vote,
Easier to Buy Gun
I'VE should be deeply con-
cerned that less than two
thirds Of Americans Of voting
age cast ballots in presidential
elections, and that less than
half do so in elections for men,
bers Of Congress-" the President
said.
Calling attention to restric-
tive laws and procedures
pointed out by the commits
sion's report, Mr.. johnson said
that "for example, I am told
that today it is easier to buy
q gun in a hardware store than
1t Is to vote"
He added that 1t Is easier to
register for service In the
armed forces than TO register
for voting in many cases. 1--WE
should make it as easy to vote
as to serve in the armed serv-
ices" he asserted.
He said he hopes that in the
1854 presidential election three
out Of three instead Of Just two
out Of three eligible voters will
cast ballots.
Copies to Governors
Mr.. johnson described as
Constructive and desirable"
the commissions recommends
ton that each State establish q
commission to review its cleo
ton laws. He said he would
send q copy Of the report to
each Governor.
He said he was issuing an
executive order extending the
life Of the commission, which
was created last March 30 by
the late President Kennedy
until next March 80 Gin order

nov, wife of comedian play
wright producer Peter Usti-
nov, who came down from
New York just for the party.
Peter couldn't be there be-
cause he's working on his
new play "Photo-Finish" that
opened in Boston last week
to good reviews and goes to
Broadway this month.
this IS A TALE OF
GODDESSES, but I want to
drink to a human being"
said the handsome, fine-fea-
tured Eve Curie Labouisse
toasting her hostess.
The "goddesses she re-
ferred to were the 16 women
around the table whose place
cards clearly proved they
we're from Mount Olympus.
They were Hestia, Pomona,
Aphrodite, and so forth, and
the description of their re-
spective virtues on the
matching cards guests picked
up as they came through the
front hall started the party
off with instant laughter.
MRS. LABOUISSE, whom
Lady Bird described in her
role as American Ambassa-
dress in Athens, as "a great
big plus for America and for
women everywhere" was
Athena. Considering that she
comes from Paris, is now liv-
ing In Athens, stems from the
scholarly CurieS and has
written a book herself, her
label, THE goddess Of wis
dom and protectress Of civ
ilized city life" seemed high
ly appropriate.
Virginia Rusk's was, too.
She was HeStia, the quiet
peacemaker on Olympus, pro-
tector of the sacred fire and
the hearth" though it's any
body's guess when she last
saw her own hearth. The
diplomatic partying she en-
barks on every evening
leaves her only enough time
to whip in and out as though
the house was on fire.
Some license was taken
with the Grecian names.
They were feminized gods in
some cases. For instance,
Mrs. Fred Vinson was very
properly "Homera = parent
of all story tellers," and
young Mrs. Birch Bayh, wife
of the new Senator from In
diana, was "Demosthenesa-
goddess of eloquent and wit
ty speech" She campaigned
for her husband.
MRS. WILLIAM Full
BRIGHT was Clothe - one
of the three fates who spun
the thread of human destiny
and inspired those who ef-
fected it. Mrs. John McClel-
Ian was Deke, who believed
in justice, and kindness to
all. Mrs. Paul Rogers, lovely
looking bride Of the Florida
Congressman. was Aphrodite,
goddess of love and beauty.
