Humphrey Says
Nation’s Economy
Fits All Americans
SAN FRANCISCO, (^—Secre
tary of the Treasury Humphrey
said Thursday the Eisenhower
Administration has reshaped U.S.
economic policies to fit a nation in
which “the man in overalls and
the man in the business suit” have
the same basic interests.
Humphrey criticized economic
policy makers of the former Dem
ocratic administrations as unreal
istic ghost fighters who, he said,
were battling “past emergencies”
after the country already had de
veloped a high level of prosperity.
The Treasury secretary told the
American Petroleum Institute in
prepared remarks:
“Our policies must result in giv
ing the man in the overalls ever
more and more of the same things
which the man in the business suit
also wants to have.”
He said when the Eisenhower
Administration came to office “we
found that the great day-to-day
American evolution from the bot
tom up . . . had not even been
properly recognized by economic
policy makers of the past two dec
ades. They were too busy fighting
the ghosts of a ‘have not’ nation, a
nation that had even then ceased
to exist . . .”
“We found the economy’s
growth hampered and hobbled by
a tangle of regulations, controls,
subsidies and taxes imposed in
past emergencies.”
Humphrey said “the man in
overalls” and the “man in the bus
iness suit” have come to have a
like interest in avoiding inflation
—a main aim of adminstration
economic policy—because both
nowadays have enough income to
accumulate savings and make in
vestments.

| Airliner Saboteur’s
Arraignment for Murder
Postponed Until Nov. 1
DENVER, UH—John Gilbert
Graham, 23, central figure in the
worst mass slaying in the nation’s
history, was taken into Denver’s
district court yesterday for ar
raignment on a murder charge.
But Judge James M. Noland
postponed the arraignment until
Nov. 28.
Graham, tall and sallow-faced,
was arrested Monday by the FBI
and admitted, authorities said,
that he placed a dynamite bomb
aboard a United Air Lines plane
Nov. 1. •
An explosion in the air broke
the plane into pieces 11 minutes*
after it. left here and all 44 aboard
were killed, including Graham’s
mother, Mrs. Daisie King, 54.
Graham is charged with her
murder, but presumably other
murder charges could be filed
against him later.
The dark-haired defendant spoke
only once during yesterday’s brief
court appearance. Judge Noland
asked him if he had a lawyer and
Graham said, “Yes.”
He kept his head down all dur
ing the hearing and his face was
stoical.
Ty Cobb Wins $50,000
Damage Suit Brought by
Another Former Player
OROVILLE, Calif., M—Oldtime
baseball star Ty Cobb won a
$50,000 victory Wednesday night
when a jury ruled 9-3 in his favor
on a damage suit brought by an
other former player.
Cobb, 68, was sued by Elbert D.
Felts of Chico, Calif., who played
three decades ago with the San
Francisco Seals.
Felts testified Cobb was drunk
and hit him last year, causing a
recurrence of a back injury.
Ty, famous Georgia peach of the
old Detroit Tigers, was asked if
he hadn’t poured himself a five
jigger drink at Felt’s home.
“That’s impossible, sir,” he re
torted. “I was a guest in his home,
and a guest never pours.”
