JIM BISHOP: Reporter

If I had known, last summer, that President Lyndon Johnson was about to write books, I’d have run for President. Everybody writes books, and everybody except the pro expects a million dollar fee. Ironically, in the matter of the Johnson memoirs, a few publishers put the rap on the project, claiming that the President’s popularity is low. E rskine Caldwell had none when he wrote “God’s Little Acre." Ernest Hemingway was practically unknown when he wrote "A Farewell to Arms." Herr Doctor Goebbels was hated, even in death, when his "Diaries" became a best-seller. Konrad Heiden’s "Adolf Hitler" em. braced a biography calculated to alienate all readers, but it is still the standard work on the Fuehrer. The inside, unvarnished Lyndon Johnson story has never benn told. No man in politics in the 20th century knows more about where the bodies are buried, and who buried them than the current President. If he has decided, after leaving office, to tell the whole story of his political life, from the time he was Congressman Kleberg’s secretary through the Los Angeles convention fight with the Kennedys, the Vice Presidency, the assassination, and his five years in the White House, he will have a series of runaway best-sellers. As everyone knows, .1 am partial to this man because I feel the he was unable to communicate his high speed industry and accomplishments to the public. He kept coming up on t.v. as a leathery Texan with a hard glitter. The growling voice had a high - noon pitch. His detractors said that he was devious, a wheeler-dealer. In the matter of word usage, the President has faith in his wife’s opinions. He told me that he would not make a speech of any sort without first reading it to her in his bedroom. He accepted her judgment in the matter of alterations “because she has a degree in journalism." This does not qualify Mrs. Johnson as an author, but it is safe to assume that any writing the President may do will be examined and pre-edited by his wife. There is the weakness in the projected series of books. Mrs. Johnson is naturally cautious and charitable. She tends to yank the muscle from strong phrasing. If she can be persuaded to permit the President to tell a straightforward revealing story, LBJ is bound to make the required reading course at most universities. In their time, the Kennedys took over the book business as though they had invented it. The fees jumped higher and higher until, in death, Senator Robert Kennedy hit the peak with one million dollars for his verson of the Cuban missile crisis. It was unrevealing and designed to make his brother look like a harassed hero, which he was. News reports last week indicate that President Johnson’s friend, Arthur Krim, President of United Artists, is the literary scout who has been rapping on publishers’ door to confer about the publication of the Johnson story — at, say, a million dollar guarantee.

Mr. Krim is a good businessman, but he is hardly a literary agent. Of course, it can be cited that Ethel Kennedy sent Ted Sorensen out to peddle her late husband’s little aidememoire for a million and Sorensen the speech-writer is no literary agent. In spite of such economic triumphs, I prefer the pro to represent me, and it is hard to beat agents such as Phyllis Jackson of Ashley-Fam-ous, and Don Congdon. They know book royalty structures, first serial rights, second serial rights, foreign magazine rights, foreign book and translation rights, picture and t.v. rights, etc. For an author to select anyone except a literary agent to represent him is akin to acting as his own lawyer in court. If I were a book publisher, I would inquire at once of Mrs. Lyndon Johnson if she proposed to write a book. She is the only First Lady who kept a daily diary every day since she moved into the White House. Her recollections of the great and awful days are already half-written.

As I said before, everything depends upon how much Mrs. Johnson is willing to reveal of her husband’s private recollections and opinions, and hers too. Lyndon Johnson took a frightful pounding from the word-slingers while he was in office. He has a healthy revenge streak. The title of the first book should be: “Now It’s My Turn."... In memoriam In loving memory of Bernard Shinn, who passed away three years ago today, Nov. 16, 1965. Just three years ago today, Daddy dear, you were taken away. This month comes with deep regret. It brings a day we will never forget. You were taken away without goodbye, But memories of you will never die. Although your soul is now at rest, God knew it was for the best. Looking back with memories upon the paths we trod, We bless the hours we spent with you and leave the rest to God. A happy home we once enjoyed, How sweet the memory still But death has left a loneliness, The world can never fill. The Golden gate stood open, Just three years ago today. Life has never been the same, Since you were called away. The years may wipe out many things., But this they wipe out never, The memory of those happy days, When we were all together. You’re not forgotten Bernard dear, Nor ever shall you be, As long as life and memory last, I shall remember thee. Sadly missed by wife Ruth and family.

Reading Club

discusses

New Harmony Mrs. Elmer Seller was hostess to the Federated Reading Club on Nov. 13th. The program, consisting of a review of “The Angel and the Serpent" by William E. Wilson, was written by Mrs. L.P. Arms and read by Mrs. George Arnold. This book tells much of the story of New Har

mony, Indiana.

George Rapp was the leader of a Lutheran sect in Germany, who believed in communal ownership,

austerity and celibacy. In 1803 cl-w-s he brought 830 people to Penn- IV SnOW^

sylvania, where they founded a community called Harmony, which owned 17,400 acres. In 1814 this was sold, and the following year the group established New Harmony, Indiana. Here they remained for ten years, with

marked success.

In 1825 the Rappites returned to Pennsylvania, after selling New Harmony to Robert Owen, a Scottish social reformer, whose rather impractical leadership resulted in the dissolution of the

community in 1827.

As a memorial to the late Mrs. Cleo Longden, who had been Vice President of the Club, Mrs. Paul Jackson read Bible passages from the Gospel of John, Chapter 14, and from Revelations, Chapter 21. In memory of Mrs. Longden, it was decided that one or more books will be given to the Greencastle Public Library. During the business meeting Mrs. Nettie Utt described conditions in the State Hospital. The members decided to bring gifts to the December meeting to be sent to patients at Logansport. The Club voted to give $5.00 to the Music Scholarship Fund, $3.00 to the Latin American Fel lowship Fund, and $2.00 to the Art Fund. It was decided to renew the subscription to the “Indiana Clubwoman," which is being given to the Greencastle Public Library as a contribution to the Community Improvement Pro-

gram.

Following the program, the hostess served refreshments of date pudding and tea.

Small business loans are available Mr. Robert V. Hinshaw, Regional Director, Small Business Administration, announced today that (25) loans were authorized in Indiana in October, totaling$429, 900.

NEW YORK (UPI)— Backstairs with the new administra-

tion:

After regarding Key Bis. cayne, Fla., for some years as his favorite vacation spot, President-elect Richard M. Nixon may have to consider another location for his holiday White House. Last week after the election, Nixon and his family' used a house owned by Sen. George A. Smathers, D-Fla., who first introduced the president-elect to south Florida when Key Bis. cayne was little more than a picturesque tropical jungle. The island has grown steadily as far as residences and businesses are concerned and it no longer is an isolated community which seldom attracts tourists as it was when Nixon first visited the area.

DEAR HELOISE: My husband hated to take a liquid medicine while he was sick in bed because I would usually spill it or drip some on the bed clothes or pajamas. After looking around and trying to find a solution. I got the idea of using a little plastic bottle that his pills came in. Just measured the dose of medicine and put it into the bottle, then marked the outside of the bottle with adhesive tape. Now I just pour the medicine in up to the tape and hand him the little bottle. Great no more spills. Sure has saved me lots of washing. A Steady Reader * * * Look, mamas . . . This would Im- a tricky way to give those kiddies their medicine too! Thanks to our reader.

New ideas

Wall street chatter

NEW YORK (UPI)— E. F. Hutton sees the market as a whole able to extend its current advance over the short term. The company says. It will be tested by a somewhat less bullish news background, in particular the Chase Manhattan Bank’s upward revision of the prime rate, which “was probably not much of a surprise," and the less than expected new car sales figures for the initial 10-day period in November.

By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst For 20 years Puerto Ricans had lived and prospered under the straw hat, surrounded by the slogan “bread, land and liberty." Suddenly, last week they awoke to find that overnight there had been a change. The Popular Democratic party which had led Puerto Rico into commonwealth status with the United States in 1952 and had originated “Operation Bootstrap", source of its prosperity, was out and the new Progressive party was in. Biggest winner was industrialist Luis Ferre, foremost advocate of statehood for Puerto Rico and the man who now will become its governor. Biggest loser was Luis Munoz Marin, founder of the Popular Democratic party and the island’s first elected governor.

INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — A

state commission ended more than a year of work today by recommending that 87 state agencies in the executive branch of government be consolidated into 11 major departments so that Hoosiers get “state government that matches their standards of excellence."

“This report contains what

we believe to be workable and sound proposals for executive reorganization," wrote Philip C. Sorensen of Columbus, chairman of the Commission on Ex. ecutive Reorganization, as he

made public the report.

The commission- proposed

that:

— A Department of Transportation be established with an executive director appointed by the governor, to include the Indiana Highway Commission, the Bureau of Motor Vehicles, the Aeronautics Commission, the Toll Road and Toll Bridge Commissions. — A Department of Commerce and Labor include the Employment Security Division, Public Service Commission, Division of Labor, State Fire Marshal, Insurance Department, Financial Institutions Department and the

Alcoholic Beverage Commission. — Other major departments include the Departments of Administration, Revenue, Welfare, Natural Resources, Mental Health, Health, Tax Commission, Board of Accounts and Correction Department. Sorensen was joined by former Lt. Gov. Richard Ristine, vice-chairman of the commission, and other members of the bipartisan group. Ristine said he has discussed the proposed changes with Gov.-elect Edgar Whitcomb and his staff and believes the next state administration will give serious consider, ation to the 37-page report. Ristine and Whitcomb are Republicans and Ristine also is a member of a group established last week by Whitcomb to make state government more efficient. Ristine said the best chance Whitcomb will have to effect any changes will be during the legislative session opening Jan. 9. “The first session in which a governor is in office is the one where he has the most clout,” Ristine said. “This commission has to continue liaison with the governor and the legislature."

Sorensen said that the commission would not disband but would try to bring about some of the consolidations during the 1969 legislative session. He said that while a few of the recommendations could be achieved by executive order, most would require legislation. The plan would leave the lieutenant governor without the departments now under his authority. Ristine said this was because the commission believed “the lieutenant governor should be the governor’s representative." Sorensen said the role of the lieutenant governor should be that of “troubleshooter" for the governor. The members said they were unable to estimate a specific savings in tax dollars by the changes but “they would have a major fiscal impact."

Mixing four cups of flour by hand. I have lumps and flour all over my tummy and the cabinet. But the mixer works great.

Mrs. H. A. Johnson * * * DEAR HELOISE: Inlaid linoleum with small breaks at the seams or burned holes can be patched. Get a scrap of your own linoleum or secure a small scrap from your linoleum dealer, matching the color as closely as possible. Using a single-edge razor blade, knife or file, scrape or file the linoleum until you get enough powder or fine scrapings of the same color. Then apply a good glue to the broken or burned out places and cover with the powder. Use a sufficient amount to fill in even with the test of the linoleum surface and let it completely dry. This method is suitable for floor linoleum and cabinet tops. Only close scrutiny will detect your handiwork. Irene * * * DEAR HELOISE: As you probably know, broken shoestrings are a nuisance to mothers and grandmothers alike. I was finishing up some knitting recently and got an idea. I decided to crochet a chain of the leftover wool the length I needed for my grandson's shoes. I discovered it not only lasted longer than regular laces but stayed tied and was easier for a five-year-old learning to tie his own laces. Mrs. M. Hickenbotham

Fair sex to attend Yale University next fall

NEW HAVEN, Conn. (UPI)Score a prestigious point for the

fair sex.

Come next fall, 500 of them will begin to live, work and play at Yale University for the first time since its founding 267 years ago. While some of old Eli grumbled, there was overall deep satisfaction at the ivied campus where the all-male tradition dates back to 1701.m c Yale President Kingman Brewster took the historic step Thursday, hailed it as “a major advance in the quality of Yale education," and won resounding

approval from the university faculty who gave the youthful head of the Ivy League school a standing ovation. Brewster’s proposal, to cost upwards of $55 million, calls for 250 freshman women to be admitted in the fall of 1969. They would live on campus, while another 250 women, transferees from other schools, probably will take up residence off-campus. With the decision to integrate, Yale joins Cornell and the University of Pennsylvania as the three Ivy League schools now having true coeducation. Harvard, like Columbia and

Brown, has a coordinate women’s institution, but not true coeducation. Princeton, has only an exchange program with Wellesley College. The reaction from rival Harvard was rich in goodwill. “Yale is to be congratulated on having the courage to discard a cherished tradition and to embrace the shape of things to come," commented

Bruce Chalmers, master of Winthrop House and a professor of metallurgy. “We’re all very happy for them. We hope Princeton will get the idea now. I think it will do a lot for the educational and social atmosphere down there. Girls add something," said Richard Strickler, a Harvard junior from Branford, Conn., about 10 miles east of the Yale campus.
