Byrnes tearfully
defends himself
against charges
WASHINGTON (UPI) - With
tears streaming down his face,
Rep. John W. Byrnes stood be
fore his colleagues Thursday to
"swear before my God and this
House that no conflict of In
terest was involved in his deal
ings with a Milwaukee Insur
ance company.
At the end of his speech, his
colleagues, some visibly
touched, stood and applauded.
The Wisconsin Republican, a
potential favorite son presiden
tial candidate In his native
state, said he would sell the in
surance company stock he
owned and give the profits
estimated elsewhere at about
$25,000 to charity.
He categorically denied "any
unethical conduct or . . . any
conflict of interest" in his deal
ings with Mortgage Guaranty
Insurance Co. of Milwaukee. He
said he had been "prosecuted,
judged and hung by powerful
parts of the public press," his
character and reputation "per
haps irreparably damaged be
cause of the incident.
The galleries and the House
were hushed as Brynes, his
voice choked with emotion and
his eyes brimming with tears,
detailed how and why he In
vested $2,300 in the stock of the
insurance firm, which was
linked to the investigation of
former Senate official Robert
G. (Bobby) Baker.
Halleck Defends Byrnes
House GOP Leader Rep.
Charles A. Halleck, R - Ind.,
strongly defended Byrnes as
"one of the ablest, decent mem
bers on either (the Republican
or Democratic) side.
"I have complete confidence
in his integrity," Halleck said.
Brynes said he helped Mort
gage Guaranty solve a tax
problem which he said threat
ened to drive it out of business.
He said the intercession in
the tax matter was undertaken
as part of his duty as a con
gressmen and in the interests
of fair administration of tax
law. He said his purchase of
the stock was as a result of ad
vice from Paul Rogan that it
would be a good investment.
Rogan is a former Wisconsin
insurance commissioner and an
official of the company.
"I state categorically that 1
had no understandinc. exnecta-
tlon or desire lor any reward
or favor of any kind for my
participation in the (tax) case,"
lie said.
Will Sell Shares
Byrnes said he knew that he
would be criticized now wheth
er he sold or kept the stock,
but he has decided to divest
himself of all his shares In the
company and keep only the
money involved In his original
Investment.
"I will donate the remainder
to Scholarships, Inc., of Green
Bay, Wis., a charitable organi
zation which provides higher
education for deserving stu
dents in my hometown who
could not otherwise afford to
go to college," he said.

Are women to blame, in great
part, for low state of TV?
By Rick Du Brow
UPI Staff Writer
HOLLYWOOD (UPI) - It is
our unresearched but common
sense theory that women are to
blame, in great part, for the
low state of network television
entertainment.
It is always relieving to find
a scapegoat for a bad situation
especially one you can be sure
is physically weaker. But ask
yourself: Who controls far and
away the most spending money
in the country? Women. And
what is the main purpose of
network entertainment? To sell
products. And who, therefore,
would the sponsors try to satis
fy most in prime-time enter
tainment? Women.
It is a long-accepted and gen
erally true truism (in the im
mortal words of a studio boss
here) that women are the main
instigators in choosing family
entertainment. In fact, one
could probably argue with
some sense that if primarily
maie viewers were renea upon
to turn on television sets, the
number of programming hours
might well be reduced, which
is a sound thought anyway.
No matter what propaganda
the ladies and their publica
tions give us, any non - brain-

washed male knows they have
more leisure time than we do.
Doubters are advised to check
the life-expectancy charts at
the insurance companies.
Before proceeding, let us In
clude teen-aged girls with the
influential female lobby we are
referring to, for their monetary
power is increasing all the
time. Together, they have al
ways been a prime target of
the entertainment merchants.
In the movies, , for instance,
we know how important to the
boxoffice was the film aimed
mainly at women the weep
ers, the Joan Crawford epics,
etc. Traditionally, it was the
woman who dragged the
pooped husband out of the
house to catch a flicker.
In the theatre, especially in
these days of high costs, we
know how difficult it is for a
play to survive without the
steady business of ladies "the
atre parties." And we know
what effect this has had on the
content of stage productions.
in television, no less than 15
or the top-rated 40 shows are
situation comedies. And it is
common knowledge that video's
weekly heroines shouldn't be
too glamorous, or it will give
inferiority complexes and stir
jealousy in the ladies at home.
And there is no question about
which sex most avidly supports
tne medical sick shows.
Any television writer can tell
you that most of the angered
writers of letters defending
video heroes are women. Men,
being more naturally sensible,
care much less. As someone
once said, women will be the
last thing civilized by man.

BAGHDAD, Iraq (UPI) -
Iraq's new government worked
today to restore normal condi
tions to the capital In the after
math of two spates of fighting
in less than two weeks.
Baghdad was calm today,
with the curfew reduced to only
the night hours and bus and bi
cycle traffic permitted. Private
cars and trucks were still
banned from the streets, how
ever, and palace guards were
startled Thursday to see a
crowd of newsmen cycle
through the gates in an unsuc
cessful attempt to get an inter
view with President Abdul Sa
lam Aref.
(Travelers reaching Athens
from Baghdad Thursday said
tanks and troops were moving
continuously through the streets
but that there was no further
shooting. Machineeun posts for
tified with sandbags control
strategic streets, they said.
(Baghdad citizens were
clearly apprehensive that new
fighting might break out at any
time between Aref's forces and
opposing national guard troops,
the travelers said.)
Aref, who overthrew the
Baathist government of Pre
mier Abdul Hassan Bakr in a
dawn coup Monday, named
Bakr vice president in his new
cabinet Tuesday, along with
eight other Baath party mem
bers. Among them was Premier
Lt. Gen. Taher Yahya, who
said in his first policy state
ment Thursday night that the
new government would "do its
utmost to realize the fulfillment
of the tripartite union pact"
among Iraq, Syria, and the
United Arab Republic.
The proposed federation of
the three nations failed to take
place because of Baathist fears
that U.A.R. President Gamal
Abdel Nasser would dominate
it. .

ARS report indicates that 1964 will be good
r . I nil III
year for the consumer in The doming area
By Gaylord P. Godwin
UPI Staff Writer
WASHINGTON (UPI) - An
Agricultural Research Service
(ARS) report shows that from
a consumer's point of view,
1964 will be a good year in the
clo'hing area.
Researcher Virginia Britton
told the annual Agricultural
Outlook Conference that the
clothing situation in 1964 added
up to large supplies to meet
heavy demand, high competi
tion among fibers, new prod
ucts becoming available, and
continued improvements in fa
miliar products.
Miss Britton said that consid
ering wholesale prices, prospec
tive supplies and demand for
raw materials, and the compe
tition among them, there ap
pears to be no strong reason to
expect much further change in
the near future in retail prices
of apparel.
She. said active competition
in the development and promo
tion of fabrics and finishes also
played a part in the prognosti
cation. Miss Britton said further im
provements in cotton garments
are emerging, such as all
stretch cotton fabrics which
made into garments provide
comfort; wash-wear treated in
terliner bonded to outer layers
of untreated cotton in collars
and cuffs to give longer fabric
life; and a method for impart
ing wash-wear properties and at
the same time permanently at
taching dyes, starch, and other
finishing materials to cotton.
Improvements that are under
way in woolen apparel and
household textiles, she said, in
clude stretch woo! fabrics, wool
sweaters and blankets that can
be washed by machine, and per
manently pleated wool skirts
and permanently creased slacks
and trousers.

Miss Britton also said devel
opments are continuing in man
made fibers and fabrics, includ
ing new forms and new uses for
nylon, fluffy texturized synthet
ic yarns, and nylon fibers with
a softer feel.
On the way to market, she
said, are non-woven fabrics that
combine the materials and pro
duction techniques of the textile
and paper industries and come
in such form as disposable bed
sheets and pillowcases for hos
pitals. She said they cost less
than the price of laundering
those made of cotton. She did
not predict when they would
reach the public consumer market.
The government's weekly
weather and crop bulletin said
harvest of the 1963 corn crop in
the corn belt is rapidly ap
proaching completion.
More than 95 per cent of the
Illinois crop has been picked,
which is three weeks earlier
than average, while in the west
