I think the feeling of mostlj
01 us, ionowing me appearance
of Sherman Adams before the
house investigators, is one of
disappointment and disillu
sion. He is too NAIVE to hold
the office of first assistant to
the President.
He testified, for example:
"If I had had more experience,
I believe I would have acted
a little more prudently" (in
his dealings with this man
Goldfine).
HE HAS had lot of 9x
perience. He was a member of the
New Hampshire house of rep
resentatives, and served as its
speaker. He served as a mem
be9of the U.S. house of rep
resentative. He served a term
as governor of New H amp
sire. His service in those of
fices should have taught him
that when somebody showers
costly gifts on an office-holder
that somebody WANTS
SOMETHING.
BESIDES
Adams holds an A.B. de
gree from Dartmouth coMege.
As a graduate of Dartmouth
away back in 1920, vrtien the
classics held a much larger
place in college curricula than
they do now, he must have
been familiar with the Aeneid,
in which Virgil makes Aenas
say: "Timeo Danaos et dona
ferentes" (I fr the Greeks
when the compearing gifts).
If his education did him
as much good as it should,
he should have recalled that
line when the Goldfine person
began to pour gifts on him
jihen he reached a position
Of great power and influence.
IF YOU are to hold the office
of fiftt assnistant to the
President of the United States,
you must KNOW ALL THESE
THINGS. Otherwise you will
expose your country to scorn
and contempt.
And
You will bring , grief and
sorrow and shame upon the
President whom you serve.
OUR government is so
FRIGHTFULLY compli
cated. It has so MANY favors that
can be given.
For example:
Suppose you are the first
assistant to the President of
the United States. Suppose
you have a friend who is a
shrewd speculator. As first
assistant to the President you
Q will be more or less familiar
q with more or less everything
that is going on in the govern
ment. Just one little word dropped 1
in conversation about an im
pending decision by some gov
ernmental agency such as
the Securities Exchange Com
mission, the Federal Trade
Commission, the Federal
Communications Commission,
the Interstate Commerce Com
mission can mean a golden
opportunity to turn a quick
buck in a big business deal.
fiOING on with the list
Suppose a friend pos
sibly a friend who has shown
you many favors, asks you to
make an appointment with
the head of some government
agency with which he wants,
or needs, to do business. Sup
pose the head of that agency
who wants to keep his job
and knows that the President
has the appointing power
misunderstands your interest
in. the introduction and jumps
to the conclusion that he'd
better give your friend an im
portant tip on what to do and
DOES give nun an important
tip and he acts on it and
jklAKES A LOT OF MONEY.
A LL these things COULD
happen. It is to KEEP
THEM FROM HAPPENING
that Presidents have first as
sistants. The first job of a first
assistant to the President of
the United States is ft) know so
" much about the complicated
business of the government
that he will be able to FKlr
VENT such things from hap-
. npnrne.
It is shockingly apparent
after Tuesday s hearing that
Mr. Adams lacks a lot of the
O qualifications of a first assis-
ant to the President.
