CAPITOL HILL BOWS TO MT. SINAI
On the eve of adjournment, the House and Senate
passed a joint resolution endorsing the Ten Comrhand
ments. Presented by Sens. Styles Bridges (R-NH), and
Earle C. Clements (D-Ky) in the Senate and by Reps.
Frank J. Becker (R-NY) and John D. Dingell (Mich)
in the House, the text is as follows:
“Whereas the world today is divided by conflicting
ideologies which cause people to live in constant fear
of annihilation or enslavement, and
“Whereas the basic principles of man’s ethical
conduct towards his fellow man have been cast aside
throughout so much of the world today, and
“Whereas a return to the precepts as expressed in
% the Ten Commandments never was more vital to sur
vival and continued civilization than today, and
“Whereas we believe the Ten Commandments, as
the primary moral force behind the three great relig
ions of today—Christianity, Judaism and Islam—
should be reaffirmed as the ethical code governing the
lives of men, and are the means of bringing about last
ing world peace and a solution to the many problems
of mankind;
“Therefore, be it hereby resolved by the United
States Senate with concurrence of the House of Repre
sentatives that we hereby proclaim our faith in the
Word of God and thereby perpetuate renewed obser
, vance throughout the world, by nations and by indi
viduals, of the Ten Commandments.”
Constituents thruout the nation will be happy, we
are sure, to think of their elected representatives faring
forth to the quadrennial presidential battle with these
noble words ringing in their ears. Further, we might
all get out the Good Book and re-read the Decalog. In
case you’ve forgotten, you’ll find it in the twentieth
chapter of Exodus.
Demo Keynoter Makes ‘Give ’em Hell and Heaven Speech
By SAUL PETT
CHICAGO, Iff) — It was, as the
man said, “A give ’em hell and
heaven" speech.
But Frank G. Clement, 36, gov
ernor of Tennessee, boy orator of
the Cumberland and an old
fashioned spellbinder, lived up to
his advance billing Monday night.
His keynote speech had evan
gelical fever, ungentle humor,
thunder, searing derision of the
opposition, songs of sweet har
mony for the home team and a
ringing battle charge. It had al
literation, metaphors (straight
and mixed)! rhyme, puns, catch
phrases and long, rolling sen
tences that began innocently,
gathered speed and crashed like
angry waves on the Republican
beach.
He assailed the GOP opposition
with cries of “Nixon, Dixon and
Yates” . . . “Party of privilege
and pillage” . . . the Republican
triple B—Benson, Below parity
and Bankruptcy.”
He said President Eisenhower
“cannot Jim Hagertize his way
through this whole campaign.”
He said “The farmer has been 'de
vitalized by the GOP and Benson
ized by Ezra B.” He said “Foster
(Dulles) fiddles, fritters, frets and
flits,” called him alternately the
Mrs. Roosevelt
Counsels Demos
To Rely on Youth
CHICAGO, lift —Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt, at 71, held out to
the Democratic party the hope
that, by drawing on its youth, it
can win the 1956 election.
‘‘It is absolutely imperative,”
she said, “that the Democrats
cqme back to power.”
She made the appeal to the
Democratic national convention
Monday night in her cool, high
I pitched voice which sometimes
1 failed to carry over the less-than
perfect loudspeaker system.
“I want victory,” she said, “and
I believe we will have it in
November.”
She quoted her late husband,
the only man ever to be elected
President four times, and the con
vention delegates applauded their
approval.
“The only thing you have to
fear,” she quoted, “is fear itself.”
And then, as 72,-year-old former
President Truman shook hands
with a well-wisher at his balcony
seat, she had a word about elder
statesmen. Gently, apparently
pointing at no one in particular,
she counseled: “Don’t rely too
much on elders.” Truman gave
no sign he heard.
Mrs. Roosevelt is backing Adlai
Stevenson, 56, for the Democratic
presidential nomination. Truman
is for Harriman, 64.

“wandering minstrel” and “the
unguided missile.”
The cheering, howling dele
gates in the blue-trimmed con
vention hall loved it, though they
seemed to run down on steam
toward the end. Not Clement. His
energy and breath control showed
no let up.
A literary purist might argue
that the length of his sentences
left him breathless and his meta
phors occasionally wrestled each
other to the ground.
Item: “That kind of double
faced campaign by the opposition
— the vice-hatchet man slinging
slander and spreading half-truths
while the top man peers down
the green fairways of indiffer
ence — will not be tolerated by
the Democratic party.”
Toward the end, Clement re
cited a catalog of what he called
Republican sins, his arms up
raised, sweat sreaming down his
angry, handsome face, down his
blue collar, blue shirt, blue suit.
Before each stipulated sin of the
enemy, he asked, “How long, oh,
how long” would they be toler
ated. There were a dozen • “how
longs.”
And at the very end, his fist
raised high, he shouted, “precious
Lord, take our hand. Lead us on.”
Nixon Endorsed by
Dewey and Knowland
After White House Talks
WASHINGTON, (*t—'Thomas E.
Dewey conferred with President
Eisenhower today and said after
ward he is “quite confident” that
Vice President Nixon will be
nominated for a second term.
Dewey, former New York gov
ernor, declined to say whether he
discussed that controversial situ
ation with Eisenhower, but he
praised Nixon warmly as “the
most useful vice president in his
tory.”
Dewey is the second influential
Republican to have endorsed Nix
on this week after talking to the
President. Sen. Knowland voiced
his support Monday.
