.his opposition to the project and thanked
me for my efforts in this connection.
Naturally, one must expect some give

ports to represent conflicting interests
of nations throughout the world, but to
compel the United States and other
friendly nations to contribute to the
strength of a regime which plans to
export Communist imperialism to Latin
'America just does not make sense.
The. statement of Paul G. Hoffman,
Amerian Managing Director for the
U.N. Special Fund, that not one single
American dollar will be used in this
project is not wholly candid. So long as
the United States is paying the major
portion. of the support of the United
Nations, this country will be making an

This great son, of Poland was marked
for a military career early in life. Born
into an impoverished family, Kosciuszko
attended the Royal School of Warsaw,
graduating with the rank of captain.
He received a state scholarship to study
engineering and artillery in France.
After completing his studies abroad,
Kosciuszko returned to Poland in ? 1774
with the rank of captain of artillery.
In Poland there were few opportuni-
ties for the military talents of young
Kosciuszko. He went to Paris, and there
he learned of the American Revolution
in 1776. That historic event on this
side of the Atlantic stirred his imagina-
tion and restless spirit. He saw an op-
portunity to fight for a good cause.
Kosciuszko's sympathy with the Ameri-
can Revolution was strengthened by his
democratic political views in the Jeffer-
sonian tradition.
With borrowed money, he sailed for
America and arrived in Philadelphia in
August. He applied at once for military
service and was admitted. His first

In the spring of the following year he
joined the Northern Army at Ticonder-

made. one of his most important contri-
butions to the revolutionary cause. His
choice of battlefields and the fortifica-
tions constructed under his direction en-
abled the American forces to win the
victory which has since been termed the
decisive battle of the Revolutionary War.
Shortly after the battle of Saratoga,
Washington told the Congress:

I have been well informed that the engineer
in the Northern Army, Kosciuszko I think his
name is, is a gentleman of science and merit.
From 1778 to 1780 Kosciuszko was
placed in charge of erecting fortifications
at West_ Point. In the southern cam-
paign that brought about the defeat of
Cornwallis at Yorktown, he participated
actively as an engineer and cavalry offi-
cer. In 1783 Kosciuszko was rewarded
for his service and devotion to the cause
of American independence; he was
awarded the privilege of American cit-
izenship, a large annual pension with
landed estates, and the rank of briga-
dier general.
The next year he returned to his native

should give a single penny to Cuba under
the circumstances as presently exist.
And it is the worst kind of sophistry for
anyone connected with the United Na-
tions to try to say that this is not money,
at. least in -part, produced by the tax-
payers of the United States. We all
know that 40 percent of the money that
goes into the U.N. special fund is con-
tributed by American taxpayers.
Mr. Speaker, this ought to put the
Members of Congress on notice. If this

CONGRESSIONAL RECORD -HOUSE February. 14
Mr. Speaker, I have today introduced
other legislation, this being along the
lines of legislation which we passed last
year which contained the idea of using
general taxation to meet some of the
problems of the migratory labor problem.
The first measure I have introduced
today would benefit both growers and
migrant laborers by assisting the States
in establishing day-care services for chil-
dren of these workers. It Is my under-
standing that grower groups support this
legislation and it is my hope it can be
enacted this session: The bill author-
izes $750,000 for matching grants to
States to provide and operate these cen-
ters, which would not only provide su-
pervision for the children whose parents
work in the fields but relieve growers of
a safety and efficiency problem presented
by the presence of these young nonwork-
ing children.
The next bill would provide $2 million
annually forri years to help improve san-
itation facilities for migrant workers.
Many growers have tried to remedy this
very serious health problem but have
often been prevented from doing so by
lack of adequate financing. This meas-
ure would give assistance In the construc-
tion or renovation of sanitation facili-
ties and provide funds for surveys by
States lacking adequate data concerning
the need for these facilities.
The third bill pvould deal with what
all have recognized as abuses by the so-
called crew leader or middleman re-
cruiter between the workers and the
farm employer. It would require a li-
cense for these contractors which would
be revoked If they committed such acts
in connection with their work as, first,
lying to workers about wages, hours, or
working conditions; second, breaching
agreements with farm employers; third,
breaching agreements with migrant
workers; and, fourth, being convicted
under a State or Federal law relating to
gambling, prostitution, alcoholic liquors,
or narcoties.
The fourth bill would insure that in
all future legislation, problems, and proj-
ects in this field-the voice of all Inter-
ested groups, farm employer, labor and
others-would be heard and contribute
to possible solutions. I have been Im-
pressed by the concern already shown
not only by the public, but growers and
representatives of migrants alike for im-
provement. I hope that my colleagues
on both sides of the aisle will join in this
effort.
This legislative package is a moderate
and comprehensive approach to the ex-
tremely difficult problems of growers and
their employees.
Mr. Speaker, I sincerely hope that this
Congress can come to grips with this
very Important subject matter, and do
something in this field, whether through
the legislation which I have introduced,
or whether through some other legisla-
tion which may be brought forth by oth-
ers at this session of Congress.
OUR NATION'S YOUTH-MESSAGE
FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES (H. DOC. NO. 66)
The SPEAKER laid before the House
the following message from the Presi-
dent of the United States; which was
read, referred to the Committee of the
Whole House on the State of the Union,
and ordered to be printed :
To the Congress of the United States
"The youth of a nation." said Disraeli,
"are the trustees of posterity." The fu-
ture promise of any nation can be di-
rectly measured by the present prospects
of its youth. This Nation-facing in-
creasingly complex economic, social, and
international challenges-is increasingly
dependent on the opportunities, capabil-
ities, and vitality of those who are soon
to bear its chief responsibilities. Such
attributes as energy, a readiness to ques-
tion, imagination, and creativity are all
attributes of youth that are also essen-
tial to our total national character. To
the extent that the Nation is called upon
to promote and protect the interests of
our younger citizens, it is an investment
certain to bring a high return, not only
in basic human values but in social and
economic terms. A few basic statistics
will indicate the nature and proportion
of our need to make this investment.
I
This is still the greatest nation in the
world in which a child can be born and
raised. His freedom, his security, his
opportunity, his prospects for a full and
happy life are greater here than any
place on earth. We do not conceal the
problems and imperfections which still
confront our youth-but they are in
large part a reflection of the growing
number of youth in this country today.
The annual birth rate since 1947 has
been 30 percent higher than it was in
the 1930's. As a result, the number of
youth under 20 rose from 46 million in
1945 to 70 million in 1961, increasing
from 33 percent to 39 percent of the
total population in that period. At
present birth rates, they will number 86
million by 1970. We are a young nation,
in every sense of the word.
This onrushing tide of young persons
has overcrowded our education system,
from the grade schools to the high
schools, and is now beginning to over-
flow our colleges, our graduate schools,
and the labor market. This year the
number of persons 16 years of age will
be more than a million greater than
last year, for an increase of 39 percent.
And in terms of the number of youths in
the potential labor market bracket, ages
14 to 24, the amount of the increase in
this decade over the previous decade-
some 6 million youths-is nearly 15 times
as high as the increase which occurred
in the 1950'x. Overcrowded educational
facilities are a familiar problem. Youth
unemployment is an Increasingly seri-
ous one.
Unemployment among young workers
today is 21/2 times the national average,
and even higher among minority groups
vious decade. Already out-of-school
youths age 16 to 21, comprise only 7
percent of the labor force but 18 per-
cent of the unemployed. During the
school months of 1962 there were on the
average 700,000 young persons in this
age category out of school and out of
work.
Other new or growing problems de-
mand our attention. Our young people
are raised in a more complex society
than that experienced by their parents
and grandparents. Nearly two-thirds
are now reared in metropolitan or sub-
urban settings, unlike the rural and
smalltown societies of an earlier era.
One family in five moves each year.
One-third of the labor force now con-
sists of women, 36 percent of whom are
mothers with children under 18.
In the last decade, juvenile delin-
quency cases brought before the courts
have more than doubled, and arrests of
youths increased 86 percent until they
numbered almost 1 million arrests a year
in 1960, 15 percent of all arrests.
While new problems arise, old prob-
lems remain. Young people are par-
ticularly hard hit by the incidence of
poverty in this country-where, despite
a rapid average increase in disposable
income and living standards, the 20 per-
cent of the population at the bottom
of the economic ladder still receives only
5 percent of personal income, the same
as in 1944.
Rich or poor, too many American chil-
dren-while taller and heavier than their
parents-are still not achieving the
physical fitness necessary for maximum
performance. Data from the National
Health Survey in 1958 show that 4 mil-
lion children and youth under age 24
had one or more chronic health defects.
In a rcent survey of 200,000 schoolchil-
dren in grades 4 through 12, nearly one-
third failed minimum physical achieve-
ment tests and over 75 percent failed to
reach satisfactory levels in a more com-
prehensive physical performance test.
Although infant mortality has decreased
75 percent since 1900, the decline has
leveled off in the last 1C years, and our
rate is still higher than that, for ex-
ample, of Sweden. Some States have
an infant mortality rate double that of
others. Ten other countries have a
higher average life expectancy span than
our own. The lack of adequate medical,
educational and cultural opportunity is
reflected in the grim statistics on 5 mil-
lion mentally retarded, discussed in an
earlier message, and in the 43 percent re-
jection rate among selective service in-
ductees. Even during the Second World
War, when physical and mental stand-
ards were not as high, 30 percent, or over
5 million young men, in the 18-37 age
group failed their induction examina-
tions.
and those unable to complete their high These figures relate, of course, only to
school education. During the 1960's 7% the problems that remain, without
million students will drop outof school
without a high school education, at pres-
ent rates, thereby entering the labor
market unprepared for anything except
the diminishing number of unskilled
labor openings. In total, some 26 mil-
lion young persons will enter the job
market for the first time during this
period, 40 percent more than In the pre-
stressing the gains we have made. These
gains have been very great indeed. As a
nation we can be proud of all that we
have done for our youth-in improving
their opportunities for education, health,
employment, recreation and useful ac-
tivity. All Americans recognize that our
children and youth are our most impor-
tant asset and resource. But there are

not say a few words.
Judge GAxEY. Chief Judge Clary and my

that the chief was going to call 'on me, or
I should have sat down for a few moments
and recorded some of the very happy recol-

He occupied a chamber next to mine, and on
many occasions we traded opinions, and we
sometimes didn't agree, but with all our
differences of opinion with respect to some
things, we agreed in most. We had a very,
very happy association together.
I could go on and laud Jim McGranery, but
were I to do this I think It would dim the
luster of those beautiful tributes that have
been paid to him by those who have just
preceded me. However, I should be ungra-

her lovely children the generous sympathy
and deepest regrets from the court of ap-

Judge Cz.ARY. Thank you very much, Judge
Ganey.

that is his membership in the Caveat Club

sorrow to Mrs. McGranery for his inability
to be here, and Judge Body has also asked
me to express his regrets that he can't be

however, did drop me a note. Judge Grim
was unable to be here, and he wrote as
follows: -

tion to make recommendations for the

In studying and evaluating all phases
of the budget process; such a committee
would be in a better position to consider
the budget as a whole rather than in
pleoepieal fashion as Is now the current
practice. It could develop a fiscal pro-

within the bounds of anticipated rev-
enues.

economic policy, and so forth. Just as
there Is now a joint tax committee to
study revenue questions under consider-
ation, the creation of a similar joint
committee to study the programs for
which billions of dollars must be appro-
priated annually would bring about
greater efficiency and economies in this
area and would render an invaluable
service to our Nation's taxpayers.
I am persuaded also that such a com-
mittee will accomplish much in bring-
Ing about more harmonious working re-

committees of both Houses.
Enactment of H.R. 1120 is now long
overdue. I am convinced that Its pas-
sage will contribute much toward better
management of our taxpayer's money.
It will enable the Congress to find many
areas where waste and extravagance can
be eliminated and will return to this
body a measure of the control over the
national purse strings which It has lost.
I, therefore, urge your early consider-
ation and affirmative action on this bill.

When the Lithuanian nation declared
Its independence on February 16, 1918,
the people of that little nation reached
a goal they had been seeking for many
years. For 120 years, from 1795 to 1915,
they had been under Russian domina-
tion; then ding World War I, they
finally gained freedom. But this free-
dom lasted only to World War II, when
the nation was overrun by the Red army
and again fell under Russian domina-
tion.
The United States recognized inde-
pendent Lithuania on July 27, 1922, and
has never given any recognition to the
incorporation of this brave nation into
the Soviet Union. We continue to main-

The aggression and tyranny which the

contrast to the freedom of the United
States and the Western nations.

serve this anniversary of Lithuanian in-
dependence, and Lithuanians all over the

Soviet Union for more than 20 years,
they have never lost hope of freedom.

thought we would hear them while you

Mr. GROSS. Would the gentleman

Mr. PERKINS. I am glad to accom-

Mr. GROSS. Is this the so-called Do-

Mr. PERKINS. This is not the so-
called Domestic Peace Corps. This is
with reference tq the Youth Opportuni-
ties Act, which Is patterned after the old

In the event of international emer-

Soviet economic penetration of the

matter to be taken lightly. Mr. Speaker,
what can be done to Stem this Soviet

Certainly some of the steps that the

is already under study by the Congress.
Second. Impress upon Western alli-

out, the true. nature of the Soviet oil

join in'dOing like in order that those
who represent us in the councils of the
world might be armed and abetted in
their dealings with other nations by hav-
ing such incontrovertible proof of the
overwhelming sentiment of the lawmak-
ing body of this Government in forceful
opposition to any such encouragement or
the type that ex$t^in Cuba.
Since the substantial majority of th UNITED
members of the United Nations have al
most invariably stood with us and
against our competitors in the world
ideological struggle, we should, of course,
be at some pains to restrain ourselves
from demagogery and to bridle our
tongues against harsh, hasty, and intem-
perate statements;
It is difficult, however, to conceive of
a more unfortunate or more ill-timed
action than this decision of a United
Nations committee which has just been
reported. The fact that the dollar vol-
ume of aid involved is relatively small
when compared with that involved with
such programs in other nations, does not
in any way diminish the symbolism of
this unfortunate decision nor in any way
alter the basic principle involved.
To grant any amount of economic aid
whatever to Cuba seems utterly un-
`thinkable. It is wholly inconsistent with
everything for which we stand as a na-
-tion and totally inconsistent with the
fundamental purposes embodied in the
Charter of the United Nations.
It is ironic indeed that such a decision
to grant even this modicum of assistance
to the Government of Cuba should come
at this time when today we celebrate the
national independence of Lithuania, an-
other small nation which, like Cuba, has
seen its lights of freedom snuffed out by
the `coarse hand of Communist tyranny
and the flower of its liberty crushed un-
der the iron boot of Communist imperial-
-ism."
It is ironic that such a decision should
come at this time when just today we
have had revealed to us an official report
by a special security committee of the
Organization of American States which
concludes that a deliberate plot exists
to overthrow free governments in Latin
America, and that this plot is being di-
rected from Cuba.
Our State Department has opposed the
granting of any aid by the United Na-
tions-to the present Government of Cuba.
Our official representatives in the United
Nations have opposed it. It seems in-
cumbent upon the Congress at this point
to strengthen their hand by a clear and
forceful demonstration of our profound
shock and of our strong and active oppo-
sition to the granting of any such recog-
permission to address the House. for '1 menace the freedom of our good neigh-

Mr. SIKES. Mr. Speaker, the deci-
sion of the United Nations to engage in
a 6-month trial run on a Cuban aid
project adds a jarring note to the al-
ready pronounced discord over Cuba.
The cost of the project intended to di-
versify Cuban agriculture will cost the
United Nations $1,157,600. The state-
ment has been made that no U.S. funds
are involved. _ But the fact remains that
the United States is paying 40 percent of
the cost of the U.N. Special Fund from
which the Cuban project would be fi-
nanced. The United States has fought
the project since it was first proposed in
1961.
There is no way to differentiate be-
tween U.S. funds and other funds in
U.N. projects. If this one is allowed to
proceed, the United States will be in the
position of contributing to the perpetu-
ationof its own foes. General disinte-
gration of Cuba's agriculture is in proc-
ess. There should be firm resolve on the
part of the United States to make no con-
tribution to any U.N. fund which is used
to thwart foreign policies of the United
States.

CONGRESSIONAL RECORD - HOUSE February 14
Mr. HoaAx. If Your Honors please, Mrs.
McGranery, her sons and daughter, and
the good ppeeople who are here this morning:
I had the honor ofbeing what I consider
a very Intimate friend of Jim McGranery.
I knew him when he was practicing law
here In Philadelphia. I have the honor
of having been one of three members of
our bar who went down to speak on his
behalf at the time he came up for con-
firmation by the U.S. Senate.
I also had the experience, which was rath-
er unusual, of being chairman of a testi-
monial dinner for a man who belonged to
an administration which was going out of
power, the Democrats having been defeated
In 1952.. and after they had gone out of
power the Bellevue Stratford ballroom and
the rooms Immediately connected with It
were filled, up in the boxes and everywhere
else, with people who had nothing except
respect for Judge McGranery. Since he was
going out with his party, they knew there
was little he could do in the way of con-
ferring favors, and in, spite of that, the
leaders of the bar and many people who
were not members of the bar attended that
dinner simply and solely to do him honor.
Judge McGranery was born in 1895. He
came to the bar in 1928, having graduated
from Temple University Law School. He
was appointed In 1934 to the honorable posi-
tion of chairman of the Registration Com-
Mission in the city of Philadelphia. Be held
that position until he went to Congress, and
he served In Congress in the 75th, 78th, and
77th sessions and part of the 78th session.
He was appointed to the bench in 1946,
and during his lifetime term he was asked
by the President of the United States to
give up the position that he held on the
bench and to accept the post of Attorney
General of the United States.
Every position that Judge McGranery
occupied he filled with honor and distinc-
tion. I still remember my statement under
oath before the Members of the Senate-
because there were those who were taking
the position, that he should not be con-
firmed-that I had known James McGranery
for many years, had been against him in
cases during the period in which he was
trying cases In Philadelphia, and I never_
found him to utter anything that was double
entendre or anything that was anything but
the truth.
Be has been honored by the church and
by the state. He has received the Order of
Merit from President Truman. He has been
honored by the church by Pope John XXIII
and Pope Plus XII in being made a Knight
Commander of the Order of St. Gregory and
a Papal Chamberlain. He likewise, in his
active career, which really only started In
1928, filled an incredible riumber of posi-
tions. How he was able to do it Is to me
a mystery.
He was a member of the board of trustees
of Immaculate College. Be was a member
of the boards of Temple University Law
School and Villanova University in Philadel-
phia. He was a member of the boards of
various other colleges, and just before hla
death he was elected a member of the board
of trustees of the Catholic University in
Washington and of the Shrine of Mary Im-
maculate. He received a medal from the
Ancient Order of Hibernians as the most
distinguished catholic gentleman in the
country. He likewise received the De LaSalle
medal, which was a medal for civil decency
in government and decency in his private
life.
The year 1928 was a turning point in his
career. In f939 there was another turning
point in his career, when he was able to per-
saade the beautiful and accomplished Re-
gina Clark to marry him. That helped him
tremendously. With her help and aid he
went right straight ahead.
There is nothing that anyone can say de-
rogatory to him and still tell the- truth. It
was amusing to me. at the time that he was
up for confirmation In the Senate, his ap-
pointment was questioned by some of the
columnists in the United States; and the
situation was that he went into the Depart-
ment of Justice realizing the tremendous job
that he had to do in limited time. These
columnists claimed that he was going to
b_ uah dirt under the carpet. That was not
what he did, and when he Ceased being At-
torney General there wasn't a single col-
umnist who did not praise him for the won-
derful work that he did.
He was an outstanding man. Being the
strong character that he was, he, of course,
made enemies. Any man who doesn't make
some enemies Is not much, and he made
enemies of men who were vituperative and
abusive. He held no rancor, he held no ha-
tred of those men, and he was a truly great
American.
During World War I he was a member of
the Observation Corps of the U.S. Govern-
ment In the Balloon Corps. and 11 anything
could be more exposed and more like a sit-
ting duck than that. it Is impossible to con-
celve what it was.
We regret his passing, but I say to Jim Mc-
Granery, Jr., and Clark McGranery, and Re-
gina McGranery that they have inherited
something which is much greater than
wealth. They have received an honorable
nsme, a name that they have the duty to
keep unspotted.
Thank you.
Judge CLARY. Thank you. Mr. Horan.
The court will now recognize the nestor of
the legal profession in Philadelphia, the
Honorable William A. Gray.
Mr. GRAY. I shall address the court. as is
customary on other occasions, by saying. "If
Your Honors please."
I know many of the things that Mr. Horan
has directed his remarks to.
I shall not repeat them. They have been
mentioned. But I shall speak of Jim Mc-
Oranery as a lawyer. He was 20 years
younger than I, and he was admitted to the
bar much later than I was, but in Phlladel-
phla I remember him because-and this has
been said by Mr. Horan, but I repeat this-
he was an honorable man. He was a man of
integrity. He was a good lawyer, and I know
that because I was coeounsel with him In
several oases during the time that he spent
in Philadelphia.
He left Philadelphia, as Your Honors know,
and went to Washington as a Member of the
Congress, and during his fourth term, he re-
signed to accept appointment from President
Roosevelt as the Assistant to the Attorney
General, and then in 1946, if I recollect the
date correctly, he was appointed by the then
President Truman to be a judge of this
court, and in 1952. If I rcollect that date
correctly, -President Truman took him from
the beach and made him Attorney General.
I followed his career from the time he be-
came a lawyer in the city of Philadelphia.
I saw him on different occasions in Washing-
ton, but eapcially after he was Attorney
General. Every time I went to Washington
I visited him in his office. Tone he was Jim:
to him I was Bill. We lost a great man, a
good lawyer.
We have been very closely in touch and for
many years past we have exchanged Christ-
mas greetings. That maybe Is not unusual
between friends, but every Christmas, even
this last Christmas, prior to Christmas day,
of course, I received from him his usual
Christmas greeting, which contained a photo-
graph of his children, all of which I have
preserved at home.
God rest his soul.
Judge CLAaY. Thank you. Mr. Gray.
We will next hear from a distinguished
jurist and a very close personal friend of our
late beloved colleague, the Honorable Robert
P. Bogler, judge of the orphans court of Phil-
adelphia.
Judge Boroaa. If Your Honors please, I am
especially grateful to you for extending me
this honor this morning to appear before
this distinguished Court to repay the honor
that Jjm McGranery bestowed upon me in
letting me be his friend, his companion of
about six different vacation trips, his best -
man when he was married, and godfather to
his second child.
He had one of the greatest capacities for
friendship that I have ever known, and sec-
ond only probably to that of another mutual
friend, James A. Farley. I met him first in
the Democratic primary In 1927, when Demo-
crats in Philadelphia numbered less than
20,000.
Many years ago I heard the phrase, "The
joy is in the striving." There also appears
in "As You Like It" the aphorism, "Sweet
are the uses of adversity."
They are things that, in my opinion, epit-
omize a great deal of Jim McGranery's
career. He came from the little people. He
shared their vicissitudes, their struggles.
They tell me that as a kid he was quite
proficient with his fists-of course, only In
self-defense-but he learned the motiva-
tions of these little people, and in conjunc-
tion with a firm belief in God, a profound
belief in God, he became a fearless man in
everything that he did. He loved life, he
loved pleasure, he loved recreation, and he
loved his friends. The lessons that he
learned in his .young life as a little person
carried through with him, together with his
love of God, later on in life when he became
a big man.
On one of our trips we went abroad in
1939. We visited England. Ireland, and
France. While we were in Ireland we were
the guests of the late Joseph P. McGarity,
who was. I suppose, the greatest Irish-Amer-
ican patriot of his time.
Jim was a great defender of equal rights.
I remember specifically when as a Con-
gressman, his constituent, Marian Ander-
son, one of the greatest voices of all time,
was being kept back in her career because
of racial prejudice. She was refused the
use of Convention Hall in Washington by
one of the patriotic societies, and Jim made
a speech on the subject on the floor of Con-
gress chiding them that he was the son of
an Irish immigrant and he had to remind
these persons, these scions of American
patriots, of their responsibilities as citizens.
He loved his country, as we know, and as
Mr. Horan said, his marriage in 1939 to the
beautiful and scholarly Regina Clark, an
able lawyer In her own right, gave new di-
rection to his life upward and onward to
greater things and to complete fulfillment.
I have said that the judge took great joy
in the striving. Indeed he did so and was
triumphant, so that today, while we are
saddened by the terrific shock of his loss,
we must express and record our joy in his
abundant contributions to our society, to
the service of God, to his family, and to his
friends.
Judge CLARY. When Judge McGranery
came to the bench of this court he served
under one of the finest chief judges ever
,to grace the bench of the country, Judge
Kirkpatrick, who is here today. I have asked
Judge Kirkpatrick to say a few words.
Judge KIsKPATRicx. I was very happy to
have Jim McGranery as one of the judges on
the court, while I was chief judge. I think
the thing that Impressed me more than
anything else about Jim was indirectly re-
ferred to by Mr. Hoadx, his tremendous en-
ergy. He was a dynamic personality, and a
very magnetic personality. His whole man-
ner was most attractive to others, and we
worked along together very well indeed. I
had the highest regard for him.

training. The Manpower Development and
Training Act is the first direct attempt made
by Congress to find a longer range solution
to the unemployment problem. It Is based
on the premise that unemployed workers
can and will find jobs when they are quali-
fied to hold them. It applies specifically to
the subject I am discussing today because
It is designed to train individuals In rural
areas for both farm jobs and nonfarm em-
ployment. There is not time for me to go
Into detail on any of these Government pro-
grams today. I am sure you will be discus-
sing them in other sessions of your annual
meeting. I know that NRECA is already
working with Government representatives
on these programs. But I do want to say
that if these programs are to be successful,
they must be based primarily on local lead-
ership and action. Without local coopera-
tiozl, guidance and action, they won't be
worth a plug nickel. And this Is where I
am going to get Into the specifics on the ways
that I know you women of rural electrifica-
tion can help most effectively.
Education: We must see that the schools In
our local areas-grade schools, high schools,
junior colleges where they exist, vocational
schools-are o?ering a curriculum and a
training designed to provide our young peo-
ple with the skills most needed In their own
community or elsewhere In their urban cen-
ters. Here is where women can back up their
school boards, and school organizations in
demanding an enriched curriculum or a re-
emphasized curriculum. Here is where we
can bend every influence in persuading our
young people not to drop out of high school.
or to go to college, or to special vocational
training in place of college. Here Is where
women can work individually and in groups
on financial aid through loans or scholar-
ships to help the young people In their rural
area train for the jobs where they are so
desperately needed.
Area redevelopment: The opportunities In
these programs are almost endless. While
your husbands are working in public or pri-
vate organizations, on ways to attract new
payroll into a rural area, whether it be a
Small industry or a process plant or a busi-
ness agency, you can make a tremendous
contribution IN helping him sell your com-
munity as a good place to live. You know.
those management executive boards who
make the final decisions on locating a busi-
ness or a plant or an industry look at a lot
of Important factors in making this decision.
They look at the availability of power, and
water, and labor, and land, and they take a
good sharp look at the tax situation of this
State, but they look at something else, too.
They call their top personnel men In and they
explain that they are considering a move to
a certain area. Those men go home and tell
their wives about this proposed move-and
what do the wives ask? You know as well
as I do. What kind of a town Is It? What
about the schools? And the Churches?
What recreational and social and cultural
facilities are there? is it a pretty town?
Will the people be warm and friendly? How
about the health facilities? Well, have you
taken a good look at your community lately?
Would you want to Move there? I have
talked to many a business executive who said
that a decision to choose one location over
another many timed- rested In balance on a
nice city park or a swimming pool and a
good sewage system.
The rural electric wife: As you can see. I
have just touched on a few of the possibili-
ties for participation on your part In your
new role in rural America. There are hun-
dreds of other possibilities. And I am very
sure that many of you are already engaged In
one or more of the community improvement
activities that help to Improve your area. In
this respect, about all I can hope to do Is
inspire In you a new urgency for getting on
with the job and some new reasons for so
doing.
Up to now. 1 have been talking about wom-
en fulfilling their responsibilities to the corn-
munity In many traditional and familiar
ways. But I would like to close by speaking
on the very special and unique contributions
you have to make to rural America because
you are the member-owners of the rural elec-
trlcs. If we are to create job opportunities by
attracting new plants and industry into new
areas, availability of electric power must keep
up with demand. All available sources of
power must be encouraged and fostered to
grow with this demand. The rural electrifi-
cation program must keep pace and must stay
strong and productive so it can offer Its spe-
cial and unique service of power to rural
Areas development. To do this it must main-
tain public support and that can be gained
only It there Is public understanding. In
this respect I think one of our biggest prob-
lems is being taken for granted. We have a
whole generation of new consumers who just
flip the switch. You and I flip that switch,
too. but we have the knowledge and the re-
membrance of what a comparatively recent
blessing it Is and how hard we fought for this
simple privilege. How long has it been since
you have seized the opportunity to tell some
newcomer or young wife in your area the
simple but thrilling story of how electricity
came to the farm? How long has it been
since you read some of your husband's trade
magazines or publications so that you could
tell an Interesting story fixing an easy-to-
'understand example of what keeps a con-

Income Tax Withholdings
EXTENSION OF REMARKS
OF
HON. E. Y. BERRY
Or SOUTH DAKOTA
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Thursday, February 14, 1963
Mr. BERRY. Mr. Speaker, judging
from the caliber of a so-called public
service announcement being distributed
by the Internal Revenue Service, the
average taxpayer is assumed to be pretty
stupid and unaware of the heavy tax
burden he is carrying to pay for his
share of the tremendous cost of our
Federal'spending programs.'
This announcement is similar to the
animated cartoon used in a popular
toothpaste TV commercial with the fa-
miliar line. "Look, Ma, no cavities."
In our federally produced commercial.
the narrator Is shown In the film in-
terviewing Joe Doaks who tells how the
boys down at the factory have been sep-
arated into two groups. A and B, for
the past year. Group A has had "in-
.creased withholdings" all year. The
scene then changes to Joe Doaks' home
and shows him coming In the door hold-
ing up his form 1040A card exclaiming,
"Look, Ma, no taxes." He then goes
,on to explain how much happier every-
one in group A is because they do not
have to pay any taxes and many receive
refunds, whereas group B individuals
frequently have to pay taxes.
The implication
and his fortunate friends In group A are
paying no Federal income tax. Nothing
could be farther from the truth. Joe
and his friends in group A have paid
more each week through the painless
method of additional witholdings, per-
mitting the Government to claim their
substantial share of his earnings a little
sooner than they might otherwise.
This clearly is another example of
misleading advertising, and since the
Federal Trade Commission is charged
with the responsibility of protecting' the
American public from fraudulent and
misleading advertising, I am referring
this matter to that agency for investiga-
tion.
To me, this is just another insidious
device of the welfare state planners to
lull the people into further apathy as to
the true cost of government. I hope
such false advertising can be kept off
the televisionscreens of this Nation.
Public Image of Agriculture
EXTENSION OF REMARKS
OF
HON. CHARLES M. TEAGUE
OF CALIFORNIA
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Thursday, February. 14, 1963
Mr. TEAGUE of California. Mr.
Speaker, under leave to extend my re-
marks, I call the attention of my col-
leagues in the Congress to an excellent
editorial appearing in "The Ventura
County Rancher With Al Tiffany" col-
umn in the January 1963 issue of the
Broadcaster, monthly publication of the
Ventura County Farm Bureau:
THE VENTURA O,.,ui rr RANCHER WITH AL
TIFFANY
Have you ever bad the feeling that some-
thing was not just right but you couldn't
put your anger on it? Well, perhaps you
have had that feeling about the public image
of agriculture.
Public officials, private citizens, and even
organizations often refer to the fact that
agriculture is our most basic and productive
Industry and that it contributes the most
to our overall economy. It Is even said,
now and then, that this is an agricultural
country and that each of us Is a farmer
at heart.
But underneath it all one is forced to
wonder how much of this is lipservice and
just how Sincerely It Is meant. Now and
then a Suspicion creeps in that there is an
underlying element of criticism.
Traditionally the farmer has been held
apart from the rest of the populace-perhaps
partly due to his own' actions. But It is a
truism that the image of the American farm-
er may take many forms.
One image is the embattled farmer and
his defense of his fledgling country during
the American Revolution. One is the coun-
try bumpkin who was the butt of jokes
which required the services of someone who

WHAT'S WaoNc rN VIETNAM?
American. officials have hastened to con-
tradict pessimistic conclusions from last
week's South Vietnamese battle with Viet-
cong guerrillas. Saigon's troops were re-
ported to have shown a lack of offensive spirit
and five American helicopters were shot
down. General Harkins, the American com-
mander In South Vietnam, defends the valor
and courage of the Vietnamese soldiers. Ad-
miral Felt, U.S. commander for the Pacific,
says, after a visit to Saigon, that last week's
battle was no harbinger of Vietcong success,
as some observers have Implied. but that, on
the contrary, the South Vietnamese are defi-
nitely winning their war against the Com-
ninnists.
It is worthwhile being reminded that losses
in one battle, or even a dozen battles, do
not portend loss of the war in South Viet-
nam. The fact remains, however, that seri-
ous defects of political policy and leadership
In South Vietnam do seriously hamper the
spirit and effectiveness of the South Viet-
namese military forces. A defensive reaction
to adverse reports about last week's battle
should not obscure a deficiency that Iswell
documented and is often cited by Americans
on. the spot in Vietnam.
Plainly, the South Vietnamese armed forces
are not so good and spirited as they might
be l cause a suspicious, dictatorial Govern-
silent 4~ $gigon must preoccupy Itself with
preserving itself In power, not just from
Communists but from many patriotic Viet-
namese who-also oppose the Communists.
Loyalty to President Diem is the criterion
for preferment among Vietnamese officers
rather than ability. It is a situation that is
not entirely eradicable In the circutistances
that now exist In South Vietnam, but it is
one that both the Americans arid President
Diem should try to alleviate. test week's
battle emphasizes the need for stronger ef-
forts in this direction.
beginning of providing decent wages for
hard-working people who struggled to
hold a place In society.
But this hallmark was not the begin-
ning of his dedication towards the rights
of free men, for he served his country
well during its struggle in the Spanish-
Americali War and World War I.
He is a man of many abilities. He
enjoys a brilliant career as a lawyer-
a champion In the defense of the poor
and unfortunate. He Is also noted as a
journalist, author, orator, and business-
man.
His career. in the House of Repre-
sentatives did not begin until 1949, but
since that time, his many abilities have
been of great value to his constituency
as well as the Nation.
As a member of the House Foreign
Affairs Committee he has proven his
worth in solving the many problems en-
compassing this important field. He is
a leading authority on African affairs
and his knowledge and interest of Latin
America have been valuable to our re-
lationships with these world areas.
His success in life cannot be meas-
ured by any one outstanding achieve-
ment for there have been many ac-
countab'.e to him. He richly deserves
the gratitude of our citizenry and I am
pleased to have this opportunity to ex-
tend my best wishes to him on his
golden anniversary of unselfish devotion
to his country and neighbors.
May this remarkable record of service
continue for many more years for there
will always be a need for his wisdom and
understanding of the many problems
the Nation is confronted with each day.

Mr. ROSTTNKOWSKI. Mr. Speaker,
for many, 50 years Is a lifetime, but
amongst us today, there is a gentleman
frorn'lftingis for whom 50 years is just
a milestone In a career dedicated to
serving his " fellow man. A career, I
might add, which I hope will continue
for another 50 years. I refer to my very
good friend and neighbor from t hicago.
the Honorable BARRATT O'HARA, the able
Representative from Illinois' Second
District.
Fifty years ago, at the young age of
30, BARRATT was chosen as a candidate
for the seat of Lieutenant Governor of
Illinois-the youngest man ever to be
c?risidered far this ' important post.
Needless to say, the people of Illinois, at
the time, recognized his ability, his ag-
gressiveness, and his dedicated spirit
toward his country, by electing him to
eu this office.
-In this capacity he aroused great
interest in the slave wages being paid in
his State and this interest occasioned
the passage of minimum wage lafvs In

HON. LESTER R. JOHNSON
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Thursday, February 14, 1963
IFrom the Rice Lake (Wis.) Chronotypel
A DISTINGUISHED RESIDENT
For the first time in history, probably, a
Rice Lake man's achievements were made the
subject of a national television show when
the deeds of Ernest Swift were dramatized
Sunday night over the CBS television net-
work.
The show depicted an heroic incident in
the life of the local man which occurred a
long time ago-1928 to be exact. But it
must be stressed that Ernest Swift, who has
chosen Rice Lake as his home in retirement,
can rest on many laurels other than the in-
cident dramatized Sunday. But, as Is the
case with most talented and dedicated men,
Swift though retired is still not resting.
More than anyone in the United States.
probably, Ernest Swift is the most dedicated,
emphatic, farsighted. and articulate ex-
ponent of conservation of the great and
God-given natural resources of this Nation.
He first attracted major attention, true,
for his courageous role as a young conserva-
tion warden in Sawyer County In apprehend-
ing bigtime Chicago hoodlums for their
fish and game violations, at considerable
physical hazard.
But from there Ernest Swift went forward
to become a forthright and unswerving dev-
otee of sound conservation practices in Wis-
consin as the State conservation department
director. Upon retiring from that position,
he foresook the easy life in favor of the re-
sponsibility of becoming the executive sec-
retary of the National Wildlife Federation,
with headquarters in Washington, D.C. Here
again his vigor and dedication won him rec-
ognition and acclaim.
Finally, he stepped down from that lofty
post and moved to Rice Lake in retirement.
But he continues to journey to Madison and
to Washington periodically as a consultant
and adviser with a wealth of experience and
sound counsel. Only recently he was pre-
sented a top award by a national forestry
association for his ' contributions to sound
forestry management and conservation. His
picture appeared in papers throughout the
land.
He still serves as conservation adviser for
the National Wildlife magazine, writes au-
thoritative articles on conservation for na-
tional magazines and, when the occasion de-
mands, can get on his feet and make a per-
suasive address like he did the other day at
Spooner on the question of opening the
Chippewa flowage to ice fishing.
Altogether, quite a man, Mr. Swift. Amer-
ica Is awakening to the critical need for pres-
ervation of its fast shrinking areas of un-
trammeled, uncontaminated wilderness and
it is men like him, cast in the mold of
courageous champions, who have been in the
forefront of this worthy fight. We're happy
to have him with us as a distinguished resi-
dent.
Mr. JOHNSON of Wisconsin. Mr.
Speaker, one of the acknowledged lead-
ers In the conservation field today is
my good friend Ernest Swift, who now
is semiretired and lives in my home dis-
trict In Wisconsin. His distinguished
career covers many years of service as a
conservation-warden In Wisconsin, as
director-, of the Wisconsin Conservation
Commission, and as executive secretary
of the National Wildlife Federation.
A dramatic incident from Mr. Swift's
days as a conservation warden was the
subject of a recent national television
show, which detailed how he appre-
hended bigtime Chicago hoodl3ms for
their fish and game violations at con-
siderable risk to himself. Under leave to
extend my remarks, I would like to have
printed in the RECORD an editorial from
the Rice Lake Cbronotype, of Rice Lake,
Wis., which pays tribute to this great
conservationist. I would also like to in-
elude an article written by Mr. Swift en-
title "The Man With the Badge":
THE MAN WrrH THE BADGE
(By Ernest Swift)
Pinning a badge on a man does something
to him; his mental outlook has to adjust
to the responsibility and authority vested in
him. The authority to restrict the liberty
of fellow citizens should not be taken lightly
nor should it be abused. The adjustment
will determine a man's ability, self-restraint,
judgment, and courage. A badge can ex-
pose sadistic qualities formerly unknown or
concealed.
A successful lawman must be endowed
with certain basic characteristics. Among
the most Important are judgment and deci-
sion; a split-second decisiveness to follow
through, and in emergencies, to be able to
shoot the works without thought of personal
safety. Whereas one rookie can be ruined
by a situation of sudden violence, in another

With the help of leaders such as you this
Nation can meet the challenge set before Its
President just last Thursday.
We can provide for greater demands for
the products of our water, our soil, our for-
ests, and minerals, and in so doing we can
eliminate poverty and want and we can
increase employment.
We can help our neighbors and ourselves
to raise our standards of living.

sense." Nothing wrong with policy, Just
with organization, Nothing wrong with
the President's judgment-just those
under him.
How reminiscent of columns by cer-
tain members of the press following the
Bay of Pigs fiasco. Not the President-
the CIA; the Eisenhower administration
before him. Or consider the Saturday
Evening Post article, coauthored by an
Alsop, on the "doves and hawks" at the
time of the Cuban quarantine decision.
A scapegoat in the form of the Ambas-
sador to the United -Nations, Mr. Ste-
venson, was set up just in case. Now
the new target is much less personal,
and, for that reason, presumably more
palatable-it is that organization known
as the State Department.
Mind you. I am not taking sides on
whether any or all of these men or or-
ganizations bear part of the blame in
any given situation. I simply fail to see
how the President himself escapes men-
tion when. for example, he personally
took the responsibility for the Bay of
Figs. In the present situation, the Sky-
bolt controversy, Mr. Alsop tells us,
raged throughout October and Novem-
ber. Could not a single word from the
Chief Executive have ended this public
display? Or was he unaware that it
was going on, as he was unaware of
complaints by Federal employees of
pressure to buy tickets to a political
fundraising event of recent date? If It
was possible, as Mr. Alsop says it was,
for the State Department to anticipate
the reaction of Mr. de Gaulle to the
"questionable"-Mr. Alsop's words-
multilateral Polaris arrangement at
Nassau, why was it not equally possible
for Mr. Kennedy to do so? What in-
formation did he lack to make such a
judgment?
As for the Canadian episode, regard-
less of the correctness of the American
position-originated under President
Eisenhower-the handling of the situa-
tion was decidedly amateurish. Mr. Al-
sop states that "according to authorita-
tive report" Mr. Kennedy is angry at the
Canadian blooper, and that heads will
roll. If It is the organization, not the
man, what heads- are on the block? And
who or what is this "authoritative re-
port"? The latter, of course, is an ex-
tension of the age-old practice whereby
a statement is made by someone in au-
thority as background or briefing to the
press with the stipulation that his name
not be mentioned.
It is unfortunate; however, for the Na-
tion as a whole, and for the press in par-
ticular, that the administration has
chosen to bestow favors on particular
members of the press. Insidious poli-
ticking by even the well-meaning among
the palace guard of columnists simply
adds another weapon to the news man-
agement arsenal. Fortunately, Mr. Al-
sop's latest article was painted in such
fairytale black and whites th t the
American people can be excused If they
number it among Alsop's fables.
The column follows:
WHAT HAS GONE WRONG?
(By Joseph Aisop)
According to authoritative report, few
bloopers have angered President Kennedy
quite so much as the State Department's
impulsive Intervention in the Canadian
Parliament's debate on national defense.
It is not clear who was responsible for
yielding to the human, all-too-human
temptation to show up Prime Minister Die-
fenbaker, who clearly deserves it, What is
clear-what should have been clear from
the first-is that yielding to this tempta-
tion only made a bad business worse.
.Since the President Is angry, it is to be
presumed that someone will pay for the
blooper. But If the President is wise, he
will ask himself whether the fault does not
Ile deeper than the individual bad judgment
of this or that official or policymaker.
The Canadian affair, after all, comes hard
on the heels of the Skybolt affair, which was
very much more damaging. And the Skybolt
affair could have been as easily avoided by
a little foresight as the Canadian affair could
have been avoided by staying silent.
No supernal powers of prophecy were
neededto foresee that the U.S. Government
would eventually have to make the offer to
share remaining Skybolt development costs
with Britain-the offer with which the Presi-
dent in fact opened his Nassau meeting with
Prime Minister Macmillan. 1f that offer
had been made at the end of October, there
would have been no Skybolt row, for the
British would then have had no possible
grounds for complaint against the United
States.
Instead the Skybolt row raged through
November and December, doing this country
untold damage with all its allies. And when
the cost-sharing offer was at last made at
Nassau. It was refused by Prime Minister
Macmillan; for the British had decided in
the interval that they too did not want
Skyboit.
The result, in Itself somewhat question-
able. was the substitute offer of Polaris mis-
siles for the British Navy. This was wrapped
up in the scheme for a multilateral deter-
rent, which General de Gaulle was blandly
invited to join.
Once again, It was predictable that De
Gaulle would feel he was being treated
lightly. He was duly enraged. And it is at
least an even bet that this Nassau-born
fury was what drove De Gaulle to cross the
important line between obstructing the
British entry into the Common Market,
which he was already doing, and positively
vetoing the British entry, which he there-
upon did.
Other cases might be cited. But it is not
needful to go further, In order to prove that
down deep in the system something is very
wrong somewhere. What is wrong is not
difficult to spot, either. President Kennedy
has not got a State Department.
In Secretary of State Dean Rusk the Presi-
dent has a wise policymaker, but a man
with no knack and no taste for executive
leadership. Yet executive leadership was
desperately needed; for the organization
Rusk inherited, which had been the most
powerful and creative agency of Govern-
ment under Harry S. Truman, was already
in sorry condition when Rusk took office.
In the era of John Foster Dulles, the ef-
fective State Department was contained by
the four walls of Dulles' private office; and
In this period, for various reasons, the rest
of the Department was simultaneously de-
based and inflated to the point of dropsy.
In his short, widely underestimated term in
office, Christian A. Herter fought a successful
holding action, but that was the best he
could manage.
Thus Rusk's task would never have been
easy, even for a man with the executive tal-
ents of a Dean G. Acheson, a Robert A.
Lovett, or a Robert McNamara. Before choos-
ing Rusk, the President made the task harder
still, in ways that are too obvious to need
naming. A Secretary unable or unwilling
to assert executive leadership was then in-
stalled in a Department debased, dropsical,
and divided. This combination has produced
HON. WILLIAM B. WIDNALL
or NEW JERSEY
IN THE HOUSE dF REPRESENTATIVES
Thursday, February 14,1963
Mr. WIDNALL. Mr. Speaker, I am be-
ginning to feel that the management of
news, openly admitted by some sources
within the administration in the past, is
not confined to straight reporting of
events as they happen. A curious pat-
tern has emerged in the ranks of those
who label themselves political colum-
nists or analysts. By no means does this
pattern appear to apply to the great
majority of writers-rather,to a few.
In a column appearing in the Wash-
ington Post on Monday, February 4,
Joseph Alsop, touches on the errors in
diplomacy that have multiplied of late
within the conduct of our foreign policy.
,Specifically, he calls attention to the
Canadian-United States nuclear arms
argument, the Skybolt episode, and the
resultant stand taken by De Gaulle.
Then he searches unhesitantly for the
culprit--and finds it in the State Depart-
ment organization and administration.
Why is it that way? Why, because of
the Eisenhower administration.
According to Mr. Alsop, "President
Kennedy has not got a State Depart-
ment." In what may well be the open-
ing shot to remove Secretary of State
Dean Rusk, Alsop concludes that Mr.
Rusk has no executive leadership, how-
ever wise in polio he may be. Further.
he has no organization-because during
the 8 years preceding Mr. Kennedy's in-
auguration, the Department was "simul-
taneously debased and inflated to the
point of dropsy." Mind you, this was
Mr. Dulles' fault, not that of his succes-
sor Christian Herter-for after all, Mr.
Herter is now employed by the Kennedy
administration is he not?
According to the writer, the people
within the administration themselves
have two excuses for the failures of the
administration in foreign policy and the
disorganization of the State- Depart-
ment. First, that the President is his
own Secretary of State; second, that the
real Secretary of State Is' McGeorge

U.N.
Mr. CHURCH. Mr. President, I am
extremely disturbed by the current im-
pact and future implications of two sto-
ries concerning the United Nations which
appeared on the front page of the Wash-
ington Post this morning. The one
deals with the decision of the U.N. Spe-
cial Fund to contribute financial assist-
ance to a Cuban agricultural project on
a 6-month test basis. The other de-
scribes rising protests against a Soviet-
prepared publication of last year. issued
by the U.N. Educational, Scientific, and
Cultural Organization, on the subject of
supposed racial and political equality in,
the U.S.S.R.
My most immediate concern, of course,
with the Special Fund action which,
ore is face, seems to give aid and com-
fort'\to a Cuban regime condemned by
all coy1ltries of the Western Hemisphere.
it Is vdly difficult for me to perceive any
justification for that action, and I be-
lieve the nate Is entitled to a full ac-
counting. lso find It very difficult to
understand h UNESCO can permit It-
self to be used any one nation as an
outlet for that try's political prop-
aganda about Its Rretended domestic
In order to get all a facts straight
on these two developme I am taking
immediate action to eonv e. as chair-
man, the Subcommittee on Interna-
ttonal Organization Affairs of t4e Senate

be meeting as early as possible- prob-
ably on Monday morning-to recdye a
full explanation from high-level officials
of the Department of State In executive
session.
I know that many of my colleagues In
this body are also upset about these
circumstances involving the United
Nations. I want to give them this early
assurance that both matters will be
fully looked Into by the appropriate
committee of the Senate. Thereafter,
we shall make available to the public as
much Information as we possibly can.

sent that the two articles published in

U.N. To Orv2 FARE Am To CvsA--8-Mori
Tsar PtAx Was, liSLP CsoP DrvzasaXCATION
(By Dan Kurzman)
The United Nations decided yesterday to
grant agricultural aid to Cuba In a move
that the administration fears may add fuel
to the attacks by some Congressmen on its
Cuban policies.
Tho governing council of the 18-nation
United Nations special fund will contribute
on a S-month teat basis to a Cuban crop
diversification program after having stalled
on the decision since the project received
initial approval in MAY 1961. The political
dynamite Use In the fact that the United
States furnishes about 40 percent of the
Washington expressed regrets over the
decision, though Paul 0. Hoffman. American
managing director of the fund, said that no
American money would be used on the
project.
He has argued that this project would not
injure the United States nor help Fidel
Castro. Although Hoffman's role is that of
an International civil servant, he has inti-
mated that if the special fund ever approved
a project that he thought would Injure the
United States he would resign from his job.
Administration officials may think sim-
ilarly, but they are concerned that some
Congressman might not. Perhaps Indicative
of things to come. Representative ROBERT L.
P. Sam, Democrat. of Florida, called the
U.N. action a "jarring note to the already
pronounced discord over Cuba. There
should be firm resolve on the part of the
United States to make fro contribution to
any United Nations fund which is used to
thwart the foreign policies of the United
States."
The fund's actigh Is based on a policy that
has been stanchly supported by the United
States since t] k fund was born 4 years ago.
Dispensing of aid money under this policy
is determined strictly by the technical feasi-
bility of pp6posed projects, never by political
considerations.
As a'result, the United States has been
hamatfung in putting forth effective objec-
tions' to the Cuban project. It has main-
tained that the aid cannot be efficiently ap-
plied In view of the emigration of qualified
Cuban farm technicians, the slaughter of
livestock, the plundering of other physical
resources, and the general disorganization of
Cuban agriculture resulting from the re-
placement of Cubans with Soviet technicians.
Such arguments, however, have made lit-
tle Impression on most members of the fund
council, which consists of nine developed and
nine underdeveloped nations.
But the council did agree to approve the
project on a 6-month test basis, which would
Involve the expenditure of only about $100,-
000 in U.N. funds. If at the end of that
period the project proves feasible it will be
extended for about 5 years with the U.N.
share of the cost totaling about $1.2 million.
American officials would not state whether
the United States would approve the pro-
gram if the 6-month test proves successful.
The aid is contingent on the expenditure
by Cuba itself of about $2 million over the
6 years.

Hoffman said that the United States will
be able to assure that no dollars will be
used on the Cuban project by simply ban-
ning the use of American equipment and
experts from participating in the program.
Expenses will be met with the currencies of
countries contributing to the scheme.
In any event, Hoffman pointed out, 5 to 10
years will be required before Cuba stands
to benefit from the project. He added that
if political considerations determined
whether a nation was deserving of aid, few
countries would receive assistance. Despite
the objections of some nations, he stated,
South Korea, the Republic of China, and
South Vietnam are obtaining aid under the
fund.
The United States did not ask for a vote
on the question of aid to Cuba because It
was evident that such a vote would have
favored Cuba.

Turkey and Italy; and beyond this, that
the Soviets now have offensive missiles
hidden In Cuba.
PROW OR WITHDRAWAL
These last are charges of stupidity, bad
faith or worse, and should either be proved
or withdrawn. There is plenty of material
on the Cuban issue for hard, fair criticism,
and Kennedy's handling of the offensive
buildup in Cuba justifies plenty of skepti-
cism, but implications of secret deals and
concealed weapons confuse and weaken the
country unless they are supported with
evidence.
The psychology of the opposition to Presi-
dent Kennedy here is clear enough. First,
it is the duty of the opposition to oppose.
Also, Kennedy clobbered the Republicans in
the last Presidential campaign with charges
that they had debased the Nation's prestige
overseas. Thereupon, when he achieved
power, he found, not the missile gap he had
moaned so much about, but enough missile
power to scare the Russians.
In this situation, the Republicans are
naturally eager to pounce on him when he
roughs up our Canadian neighbors or mis-
judges De Gaulle's Intentions, and all this
is fair enough.
But the thing has to be kept in perspec-
tive, For the conflict with a nation's
enemies is more Important than the quarrels
with its allies, and on balance, the conflict
with the Communists is not going too badly.
Meanwhile, fear in the Western Alliance
has abated, and without fear a whole new
sat of problems has arisen, requiring new
policies and new criticism.
"We have to learn to live with these prob-
lems In Cuba and elsewhere," the President
has said. And this of course, is precisely the
difficulty. For the American people don't
want to learn to live with their problems or
with the Russians, especially in Cuba. They
want them to go away, all of them, and im-
mediately, If not sooner.
THE ART OF POLITICS-ARTICLE
BY SENATOR McGEE, OF WYO-
MING
Mr. MCCARTHY. Mr. President, the
February Issue of the NEA Journal con-
tains an article entitled "The Art of
Politics," written by the senior Senator
from Wyoming [Mr. MCGEE7. As a
former member of the teaching profes-
sion, the Senator from Wyoming directs
his remarks to teachers, and reviews for
them the nature and importance of
politics. I believe other Senators and
citizens generally will find his observa-
tions about politics of interest, and I
aft unanimous consent that his article
be printed at this point in the RECORD.
There being no objection, the article
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,
as follows:

During my years as a college professor, I
frequently would ask my students for their
definition of a politician. Their answers
followed the general stereotype-a hypo-
critical creature with one hand in somebody
else's pocket, a deep freeze in the basement,
and a vicuna coat in the closet. In brief, a
politician was sort of a confidence man In
the public realm. He was the type yoif
would deal with of necessity but would
never invite home for dinner. And politics

based on Its existence . anti not merely
upon the strength or weakness of its
external manifestations. Who want to
know that it is our national will and
purpose to destroy all such governments
and that we have a firm and hard plan
and-policy to effectuate this.
When and if all this is done, and when
and if the vital issue is met squarely and
directly, I am convinced that petty and
partisan voices will be stilled, and that
the patriotic people of this Nation will
again unite four square behind the Gov-
ernment as they have always done in
our times of national crisis.
It is up to us who now occupy office
in the legislative and executive branches
of the Government, and all who have of-
ficial responsibilities, earnestly to. search
for an answer to the problem, and ear-
nestly and honestly apply ourselves in
our respective ways and in keeping with
ottr obligations to apply policies that
will meet the problem and bring about a
remedy. I know that we can do it. I
believe that we shall do It. I also belieiie
that there is no time to be lost. ``
Mr. President, in closing, I would like,
again to stress that, even though I am*-
chairman of the Preparedness Investi-
gating Subcommittee, our hearings have
not progressed very far, and today I
speak as an individual Senator and one
who is concerned with our great Nation's
welfare.
Mr. President, I yield the floor.
