The senate k growing younger faster than It ia gaining personality, a condition enw phaslzed In. recent days by the art nounced Intention of Jim Ham Lewis of Illinois to withdraw with all hi plumage. . The fact Is, two elder members of the senate have decided to turn In their chips, a pair of senators as opposite In tone and temperament as It would be possible to find. Besides Senator Lewis, Senator Hal of Maine has decided to quit at the end of another session. These things are perhaps of ho great moment to the average American. In his 20 years or more of senate service, Hale probably never made more than a dozen speeches, each of which was written out in ad vance and delivered in the senate In the manner of a New Englander who has set himself a stern, un pleasant duty and will perform It, come what may. The quiet dreBs and wordless do- ' meanor of Senator Hale was offset In multiple by Senator Lewis. He had a career as fascinating as hte manner and dress. A colonel In the Spanish -American war, he broke into politics In far-off Seattle, rep resenting the state of Washington for a time In congres. Halfway across the continent he moved, to Chicago. There he was three times elected to the senate. During the war he was on special assignment by the president in Europe. Style Prose Lewis spoke In the senate In manner that often was a torment to newsmen. If In the course of a speech he ever delivered a sentence of less than 20 words, It has escaped us. We once hunted out one that ran to ISO words, containing sub Ject matter for at least three para graphs and perhaps a couple of chapters. . The senator at times has become so involved In a sentence that It seemed only prayer and fasting could rescue him. At other times when all seemed lost, and it became appar ent to straining listeners that the subject had gone speeding down the main line leaving the predicatu htlp less on a siding, he would mako a coupling that would confound my grammatical swiwnman. Ana i: ine above sentence looks complex, com- pare it with this Lewlslc. lllt-d en tire from the Congressional Record: "If the time shall ever come when It shall be apparent thrt emi nent leaders of the nation rise to oppose (America's) form of - de fense, however sophistical, how ever artful in phraseology, how ever analytical they may be, from their point of critical censure, when they peek to Justify their op position, still, sirs, tho world can see only that a critical time on the eve of great danger when all nations stand on tiptoe In thelf anxiety and zeal for conflict there are great senators of the United States, those who confront our coun try with every obstruction against carrying out the policy that would completely establish defense and as sure the security of our country of America." Style Clothes Jim Ham's courtly manner Is ft remnant of the Old South, for ha is a Virginian born and educated, but his dress Is a vision of the future. It is a 1950 version oi tne aay oi 4i the plumed hat and beriooonea a, a Dreecnes. Taken Independently, any one part of his garb might be monstrous. His wine-pink beard, on Borah, would wilt the entire Idaho potato crop. His sorrel suit, worn alone, would sour the milk In Wisconsin. But taken together and shaded under th haunting sweep of a soft felt hat not quite as pink as the beard nor as salmon as the vest, they arrest the eye. night or day. There are some fussy dressera among the senate's younger mem bers, but their color efforts are any thing but grand, nor Is there ye a voice attuned to say in the Lewis Btyle "and. sirs, let these nations first pay their debts to us. and the devil take England."
