Humphrey 'Violator' In Active Candidacy For Vice Presidency
(Last in ri of profiles
of possible Democratic Vic
Presidential nominees.)
Washington (CQ) Sen. Hu
bert H. Humphrey (D-Minn.)
who has been breaking the rules
ever since he entered politics,
has set out to smash one of the
oldest traditions of all with his
open candidacy for the Vice
Presidency.
Custom tells the Vice Presi
dential hopeful to keep his
mouth shut, avoid controversy
and pretend complete disinterest
in the job he wants.
Humphrey broke the rule of
silence July 30 when he said he
would "work actively" for the
nomination. A& for controversy,
he's up to his eyebrows in It.
It was Humphrey who, in
1949. split the Democratic Con
vention wide open with his floor
fight for a strong civil rights
platform. The convention took
Humphrey's advice to "get out
of the shadows of states rights"
and, as a consequence, a num
ber of southerners got out of the
Democratic party, taking 39
electoral votes with them.
Actira in ADA
Further, Humphrey is a
founder and active leader of
Americans for Democratic Ac
tion (ADA) a self-styled inde
pendent political organization
whose philosophy is regarded
as left-wing not only by most
Republicans but by many con
servative Democrats.
Humphrey rejects '"any spirit
of defensiveness in the face of
continuing smear attacks"
against ADA. "Long before a
junior Senator from Wisconsin
found his way," he says, "we
had inflicted great and decisive
defeats on the Communists in
the United States."
Humphrey, 45, came to the
political wars after working in
his father's South Dakota drug
store, studying and teaching sci
ence at Louisiana State Univer
sity and the University of
Minnesota.
A losing campaign for mayor
of Minneapolis in 1943 con
vinced him he would have to
build a stronger political organ
ization to realize his own ambi
tions. He did so the next year
by merging the state's Demo
cratic party with the Farmer-1 merchant. This has not hurt him
Labor party, a throwback to the
days of prairie radicalism.'
Named Mayor
The DFL showed its potency
by electing Humphrey maj or of
Minneapolis in 1945 and 1947,
with a record majority each
time.
It sent him to the Senate in
1948 after a campaign in which
Humphrey denounced incum
bent Sen. Joseph H. Ball's (R)
support of the Taft-Hartley law.
Humphrey won reelection easily
in 1954, making his advocacy of
90 per cent farm supports a
main campaign issue.
Besides his strong farm fol
lowing, Humphrey attracts sup
port or at least friendly atten
tion from some unusual quar
ters as a result of his active par
ticipation in their causes. For
instance, his heaviest mail this
session came from members of
humane societies and others in
terested in kindness to animals
because he sponsored a bill call
ing for more humane slaughter
of cattle. And his interest in
protection of the wilderness has
endeared him to the nation's con
servationists. His background as a pharma
cist has led him to become a
champion of the Main Street
Francis X. Bushrjian
On Honeymoon Trip
Las Vegas, Nev. (U.R) Fran
cis X. Bushman, 73-year-old for
mer matinee idol, and his 53-year-old
bride honeymooned
here today following their mar
riags in a brief ceremony
Wednesday.
The first "great lover" of the
silent screen was married for
the fourth time in the ceremony
taking less than two minutes by
District Judge Frank McNamee.
It was Mrs. Richardson's third
marriage.
Bushman and Mrs. Richard
son, a former actor's agent, met
only three months ago at Pacific
Palisades, Calif., where they
were neighbors. The newlyweds
will return to Southern Cali
fornia tomorrow after their two
day honeymoon at a resort hotel.
in many vote-rich small towns.
Anti-Communist
An outspoken liberal, Hum
phrey has a long record of oppo
sition to Communism. As early
as 1947, he was battling the
Communist for control of the
DFL. His victory gave the
party's endorsement to Harry S.
Truman instead of Henry A.
Wallace in the 1948 Presidential
race.
In the Senate, he investigated
Communism in labor unions and
sponsored the bill to outlaw the
Communist party.
Congressional Quarterly's
analysis of Humphrey's voting
record shows him more "regu
lar" than the average Demo
cratic Senator. He is, an eager
and aggressive advocate of 90
per cent farm price supports, in
creased defense spending, broad
foreign aid programs, expanded
welfare benefits, public power
and tax relief for low-income
families.
He holds seats on three im
portant Senate committees: Ag
riculture, Foreign Relations and
Government Operations.
Since 1952, Humphrey has
made a deliberate effort to estab
lish friendly relationships with
the predominantly southern Sen
ate leadership. He has worked
closely with both Sen. Walter F.
George (D-Ga.) and Majority
Leader Lyndon B. Johnson
(D-Texas).
This year, he supported John
son's moves to block a bitter
end-of-the-session Senate debate
on civil rights.
Mora Moderate
In national politics, too, he
has been moving toward a more
moderate position. He worked
with both New York Gov. Aver
ell Harriman and Sen. Estes
Kefauver (D-Tenn.) at the 1952
convention, but this year he is
backing Adlai E. Stevenson.
In 1955, he helped frame a
mild substitute for the "loyalty
oath" that threatened to split the
1952 convention. In these and
other ways, he has sought to
Iron Curtain Travel
Program Stepped Up
Washington (U.R) The ad
ministration has put new steam
behind its program of travel and
cultural exchanges with the Iron
Curtain countries by appointing
a special official to supervise
the program.
He is William S. B. Lacy, for
mer U.S. Ambassador to Korea,
who was appointed Wednesday.
Lacy's title will be special as
sistant to Secretary of State
John Foster Dulles for East-West
cultural exchanges.
New problems have arisen in
this field over the past year as
a result of the Soviet campaign
for a stepped-up exchange of vis
itors. Lacy will concern himself
with exchanges of persons, lit
erature and cultural information.

make himself acceptable to the
section of the party he once
antagonized.
If the southerners are willing
to have Humphrey for Vice
President, what will he bring to
the ticket? A strong appeal to
farmers, to labor, to Immigrant
groups, to conservationists, to
liberals and to small business
men, his backers say.
Also, they say, the hardest
hitting oratory since Mr. Tru
man set the whistle-stops ablaze
in 1948. Lyndon Johnson says
Humphrey has "the best coordi
nated mind arid tongue in the
Senate."
Republicans who have en
dured his tireless tirades against
the Administration's domestic
and foreign policy, delivered at
breakneck speed in a bullfrog
voice, respect Humphrey's ora
tory almost as much as they dis
like his views.
