On Speaker Of The
House Rayburn
The office or Speaker of the
House has grown in prestige dur-
ing Sam Rayburn's tenure, it is
pointed out in the current «Nov-
ember 24th» issue of The Satur-
day Evening I’o.d.
A full-length article on the ven-
erable Texan: rites the fact that
Congress has raised the Speaker’s
salary and changed the presiden-
tial succession law so that he
would become Chief Executive in
the event of the death of both the
President and the Vice-President.
In "They're Just Crazy About
Sam," author Paul F. Healy finds
that Rayburn himself has added
to this prestige by becoming a
strong Speaker and he has held
the post over nine years, longer
than anyone else in U. S. history.
Few men have dealt so closely
with such a cross section of hum-
an nature in the raw, Healy says.
He has managed to move adroitly
through a series of national crises
with two President of contrasting
temperment and background, and
simultaneously ride herd on 4.14
usually hot and bothered col-
leagues, each from a different
part of the country and each a
full-blown personality in his or
her own right.
The story says one of the sec-
Gladewatef Dally Mirror

rots of his success is that he goes
beyond his duties as presiding of-
ficer of the House, leader of his
party in the House and highest
adviser to the President on legis-
lative matters to function as a
combination father- confessor,
counselor and Dutch uncle to
members on both sides of the
aisle.
Rayburn likes Congressmen. He
figures he has served with nearly
3,000 of them during his 39 years
in Washington and has tried to
know Intimately as many as pos-
sible. Evidence that they also like
him is reflected in the statement
of Representative Abraham Mul-
ler, a New York Democrat, that
to the new members of Congress
Rayburn has been more than a
leader, “he has been our guardian
angel.”
Both Republican and Demo-
cratic members are said to seek
him out continually for advice on
their personal problems. Even
wives of congressmen have gone
to the 69-year-old Speaker, who is
a bachelor, for tips on how to
handle their prima-donna hus-
bands.
At the same time, Rayburn is
reported to receive more proposals
of marriage by mail than any
other bachelor in Washington.
Healy also says that this holder
of the second most powerful poli-
tical post in the Government is
the country’s pre-eminent expert
on how to pass laws and placate
politicians.

And a man’s, too! \ change of opinion is
everybody's priv ilege.
Today, the majority of Americans
have decided that government should
neither own nor manage the electric
light and power business. Most say,
"That's socialism! And Americans cer-
tainly don’t want that.
The trend against socialized electric-
ity wax clearly rescaled in a nation-wide
poll of public opinion, made this year by
Opinion Research Corporation, Prince-
ton, X. J. Here are some reasons for
this trend:

In short, most Americans know that the

managed, tax-paving electric light and
power companies have the experience
and the ability to provide the nation's
power -and a record of doing it well in
war and in peace.
