C* 18t» (OPP* P O ) T, AUGUST ft, IKf * — Congressman Richards &n Wins National Acclaim with Representative J. P. Richards of the fifth congressional district was designated as the “congressman of the week” last week because of * his fight for the adoption of his amendment to the Arms Aid Bill to cut in half the *1,- 160,990,000 proposed for Atlantic Pact countries. Hi* amendment won bi-partisan support and was adopted, although Speaker Sam Rayburn left the chair and came down to the floor of the House and made a personal appeal for the adoption of the administration bill. “My Speaker, whom I admire, has on some other occasions come down into the well of this House, as is his right, and, as a 100-per cent party man, urged the Demo cratic membership of this ucumm;, ncy t anticipated parted this 1 cessfully thwarted this last-min ute attempt to align members against his amendment. The Rich ards amendment passed by a vote of 209 to 151. Mr. Richards’ concluding speech in the debate which has won him fame in Washington and through out the country follows: “Mr. Chairman, I understand that in a few minutes our beloved speaker will come down from his chair with all the prestige of his high office, with the great-mag netism of his personality, and with all the loci out of his suppoi try to stampede those of our ranks who might have Weak knees by his persuasive eloquence [V TUI (IITSOSNt ASIST ABOSt UIH IXMBSI-PAIB TBBBS AIBOIT HU II Til B.

And I must say that his percentage of success has been great “I have just heard, too, the able gentleman from Georgia, my dear friend Mr. Cox, express the hope that none of the southern mem bers would fly the coop.’ What ever may be said of southern members here, I do not believe [ueeze I anybody here, remembering the and experiences of the years preceding the last war, during it and since, would dare impugn the patriotism and motives of those who come from south of the Mason and Dix on’s line no matter how they vote on this question. If weakness there be in the po sition that members from the South sometimes tak# in matters of party politics, it is the weak ness of sometimes bolting across party lines when the welfare of our country is involved and when they believe their party is wrong. If that be weakness then to be strong is despicable. “Mr. Chairman, I do not come before you today asking you to cut this program in half in order to scuttle the whole program, as it has been insinuated is my pur pose. To the contrary, I support the principle and purposes of the program. My amendment comes from one who has supported every move to arm this country before the last war and during the war, and who has supported every move and every proposal of the administration to give military and economic aid and relief to stricken Europe to date. “Not once have I deviated. But, Mr. Chairman, the time has now come when we should stand up on our hind legs and insist that nations overseas banded together with ns under the Atlantic Pact be satisfied with a 1-year program of military aid until they prove to us that like the “Three Muske teers,’ they are ’All for one one for all,’ before the fina stability of our country is 'further weakened. So far as I am con cerned, I would be willing to vote money to our own leaders in the field of national defense before definite plans have been made be cause it has bean demonstrated what our leaders in the military field can da But I am not willing to vote a 2-year supply of money on the supposition that European nfisfsfbyZ-aaybsIp throughout the month Ilka a tonic, toprovB your appsttta, aid and thus hsip Mid up for the trying days to «ma Gawox hi jg*. pared and scientifically tasted.
