Seven weeks ago today Presi

to a genial Congress his annual
message on the state of the na
15 tion and paused to utter a birth'
" day greeting to and shake the
hand of the venerable speaker
8 Sam Rayburn, Mr. Democrat
himself. All of that was before

Rayburn Gave Assist
It is only a matter of days
ago that President Eisenhower
gently was rebuking the bubbly
partisanship of Republican Na
tional Committee members as-
sembled here - with a reminder
that the enemy of the republic
is Russian Communism, not the
Democratic party. And, about
that time, . Rayburn was .in the

tives to save by' a hair-line de
cision the reciprocal trade bill
which is held by the President
e to be a vital part of his overall
foreign policy. The speaker does
not often go to the well to join
. in debate. It was a mighty ges
ture and friendly from one Dem
ocrat, to one Republican.
And, back there in last year's
general election campaign, it
was Mr. Eisenhower who put
limits on the extent to which
Vice-President Richard M. Nixon
could develop his theme that the
Democrats over a period of 20
years had been soft and gullible
on Communism. j

FIRE WIPES OUT FAMILY .A neighbor

Kan., to hear him say that his family is still
in the burning house. Hadl's wife and 22-months-old
daughter also died in the fire that
followed an explosion.
Baroness Offers To Sell Title
Chicago U.R) A destitute
Baroness offered in a want ad
today to sell her title "so I can
live out the rest of my years
decently."
The 81-year-old Baroness Lina
right now. The principal facts
are these: Rayburn and his Dem
ocrats expect Mr. Eisenhower
to seek a " second term. They
count him as the most dangerous
candidate the Republicans could
put up. They seek now to cut
him down to size by mauling his
domestic program on taxes and
other basic issues..
Much of this may come as a
surprise ; to -the President who
entered office with what appear
ed to be a vague idea that Demo
crats -were, tame and friendly
fellows at heart, incapable of
playing politics. That is a long
way from the barbed accusation
at Wednesday's news conference
that Rayburn , and company
reached the heights of irresponsi
bility in the -important field of
government finance, taxation
and currency stabilization. Sharp
words get sharp answers and
the Democratic leaders did not
try to hide the bitterness with
which they heard Mr. Eisen
hower's comment.
There is not much personal in
this so far, as,, for instance, be
tween Rayburn and the Presi
dent. But . that may come in
unfolding before Mr. Eisenhower time.
Von Lamezan Marimbois indi
cated that she hates to part with
her title, but needs the cash.
The widow lives alone in a
small cottage where the plumb
ing is faulty. She does all her
own housework.
Actually, the Baroness said,
she dislikes the idea of an out
right "sale" of her title. She
would prefer to find a person or
family she could "adopt" for a
cash consideration.
bucn an "adoption, she ex
plained, would keep the title in
her own "family."
There was a time, she : said,
when she lived on Chicago's
fashionable Gold Coast with her
titled husband. But sha'said she
went bankrupt - during the de
pression. .
The Baroness said she was
born in 1873 in the Hartz Moun
tain area of Germany.
"Our farm is still there and is
run by my nephew," she said.
"But I can't go back because
the . Communists have taken it
over." .

Harlan Opposed For Judgeship
Washington U.PJ Sen. Olin
D. . Johnston said today he op
poses confirmation of John Mar
shall Harlan as a Supreme Court
Justice because he fears Harlan
would put the United Nations
above the United States.
The South Carolina Demo
crat, a member of the Senate
Judiciary Committee, announced
his opposition as the committee
began hearings on President
Eisenhower's nomination of Har
lan. The sessions were closed to
the press and public.
Harlan was nominated by Pres
ident Eisenhower last fall. Ob
jections caused the Senate to
defer action on the nomination
during its special session de
voted to censure proceedings
against Sen. Joseph , R. Mc
Carthy (R-Wis.).
The objections included pro
tests that Harlan had been a
Rhodes Scholar, that he had
been associated with the Atlantic
Union Movement and that he
was inexperienced. Nominated
to succeed the late Justice Rob
ert H. Jackson, Harlan is serv
ing on the Circuit Court of Ap
peals in New York under an
appointment by President Eisenhower.
