Truman Celebrates
64th Birthday, Gets
Surprise Award
By Joseph A. Fox
President Truman had a birthday
yesterday—his 64th—and it was a
busy one.
In th* course of a crowded pro
gram, he worked in two< informal
speeches; attended a couple of
luncheons which threatened disaster
for his ordinarily rigid diet; said
thanks for a lot of remembrandfs
including a toy horse from a nine
year-old admirer, and congratula
tory messages from friends and well
wishers everywhere.
In the meantime, he kept an eye
on the east end of the White House,
where conferences to halt the rail
strike were under way.
At the wind-up—the second lunch
—the President told a Carlton Hotel
audience that Henry Clay was a
pretty smart fellow. He explained
that the Kentuckiap twice refused
the vice presidency when an accept
ance woufd have elevated him to the
presidency.
The President spoke at the Carl
ton at an affair honoring recipients
of the Colliers Magazine Award
for distinguished congressional serv
ice. Mr. Truman had presented
plaques to the recipients at a
White House ceremony earlier in
the day.
Barkley, Herter Honored.
The award, made annually by
the magazine, went this year to
Senator Barkley, Democrat, of Ken
tucky, for his leadership of the
Senate minority, and to Represen
tative Herter, Republican, of Massa
chusetts, in recognition of his labors
in the field of foreign affairs.
This year, too, there was a third
award—to the President, for his
! interest in the award.
Mr. Truman said the gift of the
plaque “took me off my feet” and
I insisted that it was a birthday re
membrance, although Eric John
ston, president of the Motion Pic
ture Producers Association, who
headed the award committee, said
it was only a happy coincidence
that the tribute came on the
President's birthday.
Along with their plaques, Senator
Barklev and Mr. Herter also re
ceived $10,000 each to be devoted to
! any cause they chose. Senator
Barkley said his would go to the
medical department of the Univers
ity of Louisville, to start a fund for
research in heart disease. Mr. Her
ter is giving his to the Foreign Serv
ice Educational Foundation here to
promote advanced study in inter
; national relations.
Senator Barkley said there was
not only great need for a study of
heart disease, but Said that his
personal feelings entered into the
matter, too, because Mrs. Barkley
had died of that ailment after suf
fering for many years.
Wyoming Cow Pony.
The toy horse birthday gift, which
took Its place on the President’s
desk, came from George Fotes of
1 Douglas, Wyo., who said it repre
sented a Wyoming cow pony. Yes
terday was George’s birthday, too.
Other presidential gifts included
a birthday cake, flowers in jsrotusion
from the White House force, and
from the same source a gold dis
! charge button from World War I to
I replace the bronze insignia the
President has worn for 30 years in
| his lapel.
The White Hous force also ar
ranged a little luncheon there for
the President, to which members of
the Cabinet and Chief Justice Vin
son were invited.
The President—facing a vigorous
campaign—goes into his 65th year
in good condition, according to Brig.
Gen. Wallace Graham, his personal
physician. He weighs 115, custom
arily eats sparingly, and walks and
swims to keep in shape for the
grind imposed by a 16-to-18-hour
day.

PRESIDENT, CONGRESSIONAL LEADERS GET AWARDS—Eric Johnston yesterday presented

service. President Truman also received a plaque at the White House ceremony for his
interest in and support of the purpose Of the awards. Shown (left to right) are Mr. Johnston,

“prepared outside the committee"
and not by any member or stall
employe. He said he did not know
where it came from.
A subcommittee member declared;
it was “highly unusual as a parlia
mentary device" to print such an un- ;
official statement of the views of
persons other than the congressional
committees, especially without ad
vance notification of a committee.
Ives Bill Criticized
The document especially criticizes
some phases of a bill sponsored by
Senator Ives, Republican, of New
York, and reported out by the Sen
ate Labor Committee last February.
; It is designed to prohibit discrim
j ination in employment because of
race, religion, color, national origin:
or ancestry.
At least nine bills with the same
general objectives, or for establish- i
1 ment of a Fair Employment Prac- j
1 tices Committee, have been intro
duced in.the House.
Indorsing objectives of such legis
lation, the document complained
that the particular proposed meth
ods are dangerous because "Federal
officials and agents would be au
thorized to investigate all phases
of the employment relationship and
to issue orders affecting employers
and employes whenever they believe
that the motive in back of any de
cision is discriminatory.”
“It must be recognized that em
ployment discrimination is but one

aspect of the entire problem of
discrimination against minority
groups,” the document stated. “That
discrimination stems from deep
rooted prejudices and a history of
friction which cannot be eliminated
simply by saying a magic word.
The problem of eliminating discrim
ination against minority groups can
best be solved by taking into full
consideration the pattern of com
munity attitudes.”
Education Suggested.
The document suggested that the
problem of employment discrimina
tion because of race or creed be
approached through educational
means and by using established col
i lective bargaining procedures.
“Such a procedure," it said, “is
much more realistic than the im
position, upon all employers of 50
or more employes, of a Federal bu
reaucracy which may have its own
whims, prejudices and caprices. The
whole movement to seek the elimi
nation of discrimination and to pro
mote greater freedom and oppor
tunity for the individual by Fed
eral regulation of the employment
relationship in industry is unwise,
impractical and fraught with grave
dangers.
“Unless this country is prepared
to accept the all-pervasive control
of industrial relations by a corpo
rate state through centralization of
power in the Federal Government,
there are some problems- in our
social and industrial life whose ulti
mate solution must be left to the
slow- but certain processes of edu
cation, voluntary action and the
relentless pressure of public opin
ion.”
The document “raised the ques
tion” whether wage-hour legisla
tion, with provision for minimum
wage levels, is necessary any longer.
It asserted that the law has created
more problems than it solved. “Other
forces in our economy” provide ade
quate safeguards against substand
ard wages, it stated.
