ode flslcmd Senator AAoved Quito Role of Leadership
By JOHN A. GOLDSMITH
United Press International
WASHINGTON (UPI) - John
Orlando Pastore is the Senate's
smallest Senator from the na
tion's smallest state. His story
reads like the American dream.
Modern mythology alle g e s
that the Senate is run by men
of towering seniority, generally
from the South. Twenty seven
Senators have more seniority
than the immigrant tailor's son
who is the senior Senator from
Rhode Island.
In recent weeks, howcv ever
Democrat Pastore has been
riding herd on three of Presi
dent Kennedy's priority bills.
No one else has had quite the
same role in handling rail strike
legislation, the nuclear test ban
treaty and the public accommo
dations civil rights bill.
True, it was something of an
accident illness of Com
merce Committee Chair man
Warren G. Magnuson (D-Wash.)
that gave Pastore a central
role in consideration of the
measures. But such accidents
have been the making of many
a congressional leader.
In Pastore's case, presiding
at daytime civil rights hearings
and night rail hearings was pub
lic notification of the fact that
he had arrived as a Sen a t e
"leader." Actually, as chairman
of the Senate - House Atomic
Energy committee and a mem
ber of the Senate Democratic
Policy committee, he already
had moved into a leadership
position in Senate councils.
In a broader sense, of course,
he also had attained a position
of political leadership. when he
was elected to the Senate in
1950, having served as Lieuten
ant Governor and then as Gov
ernor of his state.
Born in Providence, R.I., in
1907, Pastors ran errands for
his father's tailor snop until the
father died. Young Pastore was
then 8 years old. His mother
went back to work as a seam
stress to support the boy and
his three brothers and two sis
ters. Pastore worked after school
at a jewelry factory and grad
uated in 1925 from Classical
High school. College was out of
the question, although Brown
university was c o n v e n iently
close. Instead, Pastore clerked
for an electric power company
and enrolled in night classes at
the local branch of Northeast
ern university. He won a bach
elor of laws degree in 1931 and
was admitted to law practice in
1932.
Starting in Providence's sev
enth ward, he moved into poli
tics. In 1935 he was elected to
the stale's general assembly. In
1937 he became an assistant
state's attorney general. He be-

"Isn't this great? Isn't this

have been a mob but it is a dis

they are going home."
The hour was 10 o'clock Won
day night. The place was the
Sixth Avenue Baptist church in
Birmingham, Ala., and the
speaker was a wiry integration
leader by the name of the Rev.
Fred L. Shuttlesworth.
The meeting had started al
most four hours earlier with the
hymns and prayers of the first
few Negroes who came into an
auditorium that would be filled
with hundreds before the night
was over.
For days and nights, violence
had stalked the city of Birming-

Much of it had been the work of
Negroes. The purpose of the
mass meeting on Sixth avenue
was to cleanse the congregation
of any desire to retaliate with
disorder.
Turned Tn Prayer
As Negro volunteer guards
roamed through the hig church,
periodically checking all rooms
for explosives that might have
been planted, the leaders turned
the people to fervent prayer
and ardent song.
The meeting returned to Hie
city the persuasive voice of the
nonviolent movement headed by
ur. Martin Luther King Jr.
There were hopes that it would
impact and calm a segment of
the Negro population that has
repeatedly harassed police and
white pedestrians and motor
ists. King and Shuttlesworth asked
the mass meeting crowd to go

came lieutenant governor in
1944, then was governor from
1945 until 1950.
Successful Governor
During his tenure as governor
the state adopted a fair employ
ment practices law and Pastore
pushed through an aid program
for teachers' salaries and a
sales tax needed to finance it.
The sales tax, often a governor's
return trip ticket to private life,
did not curb Pastore's increas
ing margins at the polls.
It was something of a triumph
too, albeit one of another kins,
when shortly after his election
to the U.S. Senate he was made
a member of the corporation
a trustee of Brown university.
Pastore's Senate voting rec
ord places him with Democratic
liberals on such issues as social
welfare and civil rights. He has,
however, split with the liberal
group on such issues as the
communications satellite bill
for which, as chairman of the
Senate's Communications sub
committee, he was floor man
ager. In one of the Senate's most
bitter personality disputes of re
cent years, he voted for the
nomination of his friend, Lewis
L. Strauss, to be secretary of
commerce and against h i s
Atomic Energy committee col
league, Sen. Clinton P. Ander
son (D-N.M.), who was leading
the fight against Strauss. He did
not believe, with Anderson, that
Strauss had been evasive and
misleading in his dealings with I
the committee.
Strong Voice
Pastore has a broad and
ready smile, and his bearing
shows a bit of cockiness. From
his small frame, however, there
emanates a strong, piercing
voice which is lifted not infre
quently in Senate debate.
Pastore was, in fact, one of
the few Senators to tangle per
iodically in floor debate with
the late Sen. Robert S. Kerr (D
Okla.), and emerge with argu
ments unblunted and spirit un
chastened. Sen. Richard B. Rus
sell ( D-Ga. ), one of the Senate's !
top orators and legal expert,
has on occasion said he would
like to have Pastore as his law-1
ycr if he was in trouble.
In the best tradition, how
ever, neither the talented
tongue nor the cocky bearing
have any dampening effect on
Pastore's sunny disposition in
which Pastore is not always a
matter of great seriousness to
Pastore.
Recently he was discussing
the effects of nuclear fallout
with newsmen. He did not, he
made it quite clear, go along
with the idea that changes or
mutations caused by fallout
might prove beneficial rather
than harmful.
"Mutations!" he said explo
sively, "perhaps they'll make
Pastore six feet tall!"
