The Boy From Shirkeyville

Since CBS did an hour-long television program on Indiana’s junior Senator Birch Bayh, he has become known in many quarters as the boy from Shirkeyyille, Ind. Shirkeyville. a small community just outside Terre Haute. Ind., in fact is the home town of Senator Bayh. •Bayh, in his late 30s, is walking am<>n'g giants in the U. S. Senate yet it was he who proposed the 25th amendment to the United States Constitution which passed the U.S. Senate by a resounding 68. to 5 vote last week. The amendment, now up to threefourths of the state legislatures to ratify before it becomes law. deals with the succession: to the Presidency, a gapping loophole Ifft. in the Constitution by the founding fathers.

The story here deals with us as individuals. .So many of us say, “But what can we do?” _ ■ • Yet here is a small-town Indiana boy with a consuming ambition who attracted national attention while a youth fighting with Uncle Sam’s troops in Europe helping German boys raise gardens. He turned state legislator, and was speaker of the Indiana House at 27. lie took on the unlikely job of defeating Senator Capehart, a wealthy giant in Indiana Republican politics. In all those he (along with his charming wife Marvella) have had notable success. And now you see the hand of the boy from Shirkeyville felt on the face o! our nation. He is affecting a much-needed change in our basic constitution. It makes us think again. “Just what can we do?’’ doesn’t it?

Senator Birch Bayh To Give All To Speed Ratification of Amendment

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 6 — Senator Birch Bayh (D-Ind.) vowed , he would do “all that is asked of me —and more” to speed ratification by I the states of the Bayh Amendment on presidential continuity. Bayh, who authored and ted the I legislative fisit on the proposal which could become the 25 Amendment to the Constitution, made the statement shortly after both houses had given final approval to the resolution. The proposal provides a means by : which the Vice President would act as President if the Chief Executive is disabled. It also provides a means by which the office of Vice Pres’dent would never be vacant for long. • Bayh introduced the proposed amendment in December, 1963. It passed the Senate in the 88th Congress but had to be re-introduced this year at the start of the 89th i Congress. With slight modifications, : it passed both chambers — 72-to-0 in the Senate and 368-to-29 in the House. A Senate-House conference committee, which Bayh chaired, worked out the differences in the Senate and House versions of the proposal. The conference report was approved by both houses today. The. proposal now goes to the state legislatures. It must be approved by three-fourths tor 38> of the legislatures to become the 25th Amendment. Bayh staid he is hopeful that it will receive final ratification by early 1967. The Hoosier Senator indicated he would appeal directly to Governors and legislative leaders through-out the nation to do all they can to speed ratification. “The problem of presidential inability and filling vacancies in the office of Vice President lias plagued the nation time and again for the past 178 years,” Bayh said. “If there is any way that the ratification process can be. stepped up. I will do all I can to encourage that this be done.” Fourteen legislatures are meeting rw. Bayh said. and two may go into special session this year. Thirteen meet next year. If all. were to ratify the amenthnent, it would still require nine additional ratifications to make the proposal a part of the Constitution. Bayh praised Democratic and Republican leaders in both houses “for their continued of this [proposal, their cooperation, their ‘ ideas and improvements and. above all. their complete bi-partisanship.” He extended “particular thanks” to the American Bar Association “who gave unflagging support to the proposal and whose leaders spent their time, their efforts and ♦he r ingenuity to publicize ard explain this proposal throughout the United States.” The Ammendment (The following is the language of S. J. Res. 1 as approved by SenateHouse conferees on Jime 24. 1965.) SECTION 1. Tn case of the removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation, the Vice President shall become President. SECTION 2. Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress. ■ SECTION 3.

SECTION 4. Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either, the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of . the Senate and the , Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of, his office, the Vice President shall' Used Equipment | 1960 Ford 871 1958 Ford 861 1957 Ford 960 1957 Fordson Major Diesel 1956 Ford 860 1956 Ford 850 1953 Ford “NAA” 1940 Ford “9N” 1957 Allis Chalmers WD--45-D with cultivators 11964 Ford Baler Used Trailer Sprayer Used Ford Plows Used Planters Forage Harvester Mowers Used IHC Grain Drill De Good Tractor Sales FORD TRACTORS & EQUIP.

As is the required practice (state law' admission fees will be charged. The park will have two gates.The West gate will serve traffic from the west and north off State Road 9, 6 miles south of Albion, Indiana. Traffic from the south and east can use the South gate which may be reached from the Ft. Wayne area by taking U.
