    Memory Course Offered
To American Diplomats

WASHINGTON 1UPI1 US
diplomats are now being offered
a course in mnemonics, which
means training the memory.
It may help solve that ultimata
crisis of diplomacy for example,

The first, introductory session
of a 10-lesson course for State

Monday night.
The session was conducted by

Bill Okay
Anticipated
WASHINGTON UPI - Chair
man Emanuel Celler, D-N.Y., of
the House Judiciary Committee,
predicted Monday night that Con
press will approve most of Presi
dent Kennedy's civil rights bill
but only after some compromise.
Ccllcr's committee will open
hearings on the administration's!
proposals Wednesday with Atty.
Gen. Robert F. Kennedy as the
first witness. Kennedy was pre
paring a half-hour-long statement
for the session.
In forecasting congressional
passage of most of the adminis
tration program, Celler said that
"after all is said and done" it
would be a compromise, however.
He predicted that chairman
Howard W. Smith, D-Va., would
try to bottle up the bill in the
House Rules Committee, but said
he was prepared to olfer a dis
charge petition to get it to the
House floor.
Such a move would require the
signatures of 218 House members.
Reported Pleased
Atty. Gen. Kennedy was re
ported to be pleased that his first
congressional appearance on the
bill would be before Ccllcr's com
mittee on the entire bill.
He had been scheduled to testi
fy before tile Senate Commerce
Committee today on the public
accommodations section of the
civil rights package, the most
controversial part of the bill.
His Senate appearance was de
layed until some time next week,
however, when Sen. Strom Thur
mond, D-S.C. served notice that
he would object to meetings of
the commerce committee whilel
the Senate was in session.
Unanimous consent is necessary
for a committee to hold hearings!
while the Senate is meeting, so!
Thurmond's objection means that
the commerce committee sessions
will be slowed considerably.
Has 4t Co-sponsors
The administration bill wound
up Monday night with i co
sponsors, four short of the 50
that Democratic Leader Hubert
Humphrey, Minn., predicted it
would have.
Sen. Richard B. Russell, D-Ga.,
attacked the public accommoda-1
tions proposal Monday. He said
a similar Reconstruction law was
declared unconstitutional by t h e

he is also, from former days, a
disciple of someone called "Dr
Bruno," the memory expert.
Base On Code
Crosson said memory tricks
based on a numbers code have
proved invaluable to him in re
member the 31 different grounds
tor denying a visa to an alien.
He said the course would in
clude remembering names, num
bers, speech points and how to
memorize a full deck of playing
cards by dealing through it only
once.
The course is sponsored by the
State Department-USIA Recrea
tion Association and is held after
working hours. There were only
about SO pupils, but if mnemonics
catches on, the effect on U. S.
diplomacy could be beyond imagination.
Winners All Around
Suppose, for example, Ameri
can diplomats suddenly began
beating all other diplomats at
cards.
Consider the effect if the third
secretary of the American Em
bassy in Byanibar were able to
quote verbatim the full text of
Article 6 .C of the Byanabar
constitution to the minister of
transportation and culture.
Most important of all, what!
would happen if diplomats no
longer could honestly say, "I
don't remember."

remained in critical condition to
day with a bullet wound in the

Gent, outgoing commander of
the 32nd Air Division, was shot
early Monday with a 25-caliber

The shooting occurred less than
24 hours after Gent's wife, Mar

investigation would take at least
three days. They said they hoped
to question Gent later this week.

Senate today following the pro

House two weeks ago.
The Kennedy administration
measure would add $45 million
to authorized funds for the Area
Redevelopment Agency (AKAi
which the House by a slim mar
gin refused to approve. The bill
now faces mounting opposition in
the Senate.
Kennedy has asked Congress to
double the funds for the 20-month-
old agency, which was created
1961 to bring federal aid to
communities and regions suffer
ing from chronic unemployment.
Republicans, bactted by some
conservative Democrats, have

said the ARA amounted to little
more than a political slush fund
for tlie Democrats.
He labeled the agency a step
toward "planned government
economy" and contended that
many of its loans and grants had
been used to build up marginal
industries which only cause un
employment in other areas.
