By ih« AuMiitii Pro*
Senator Proxmire. Democrat
of Wisconsin, hit again today
at the leadership of Senator
Johnson. Democrat of Texas,
saying it short-circuited Im
oortant roles of the Senate by
"settling issues off the floor.”
Hammering away further on
his theme that Democratic
Senators should have more of
a role In determining the
party's programs and policies.
Senator Proxmire said In a
prepared Senate speech:
”It Is not enough for us to
grope Instinctively along even
though we follow g man of
great and proven political
genius. We must know and
we must Insist that the Amer
ican people know to whom we
are responsible and where we
are going.”
Second la Series
He said his speech today was
the second in a series on the
subject and was "not intended
in criticism or derogation of
anyone."
Two weeks ago Senator Prox
mire delivered a Senate speech
criticising “the decision so pur
leadership not to call caucuses
in recent years of all Demo
crats for the purpose of de
termining a legislative pro
gram . . ."
He oonUnued that criticism
today but contended, as hr
did after the first speech, that
it was "not intended in ertti- 1
ciam or derogation of anyone."
