No one can question his sincerity, but no one can rate him high on ability A class D Senator, George Malone, Nevada Republi- can—a former consulting engine: works hard, does more listeni than talking, is not afraid to buck GOP leadership when he thinks they're wrong, has turned out to be a slightly better-than-average freshman Senator. Class C rating William B Umstead, Norta Carolina Democrat—an expert on parliementary procecure, and conscientious conservative, Um- stead seemed to be right at home among the mediocrities surround- ing him.

Never did he deviate from Capehart Never did he indicate that he had a mind of his own. A great grand- stander and breast-beater. Jenner talked big about aiding veterans, but nearly always could be found voting against them. Class E 1ating Raymond Baldwin, Connecticut Republican—a man of intense per- sonal drive, rates next to Ives and Flanders among the abler GOP {reshmen. A moderate independent, Baldwin voted against the wool- grab bill, opposed Taft isolation, Jet no grass grow under his feet Class B. Joseph McCarthy, Wisconsin Re- publican—came the Senate with more publicity build-up than any colleague, but fizzled faster Worked hard for Pepsi-Cola sugar decontrol, preached zid to the veterans, but consistently voted with the real-estate lobby against them, talked more and did less constructive work than any other new Congressman except Bricker, Class E rating John Bricker. to Ohis Reputlican —former Governor of Ohio and GOP candidate for Vice-President, big things were expected of Brick- J | most er but his Ohio colleague, Bob Taft, put him well in the shade Bricker made his Washington de- but with a gridiron speech which struck a universally sour note, and he kept sounding sour .aotes during of the session. He worked more for his Ohio banking friend, John Galbreath, and the real-estate lobby than for veterans. One real- estate lobby even gloated over the fact that Bricker introduced four bills for them. Class E. Edward J. Thye, Minnesota Re- publican—ex-Governor of his state, quiet, sincere, unassuming, can be a strong battle for issues that in- terest him, one of the better mem- bers of the new Senate group. Class B Henry Dworshak, Idaho Repub- lican -after an undistinguished career in the House, Dworshak rode the GOP landslide into the Senate, where he has been equally undistinguished ever since. A D- minus Senator. Edward Martin, Pennsylvania Republican—former Governor of Pennsylvania, given to haranguing in the Senate floor, Martin may have been a good major general, Lut in the Senate he adds noth- ing to the prestige of the Nation's ond most powerful state. John J. Williams, Delaware Re- FuLlican—a grain dealer and tur- key iser, who pretends to be an c statesman. Willilams is out of place in the Senate. Class D rating. Herbert O’'Conor, Maryland Dem- ocrat—a former Governor, O'Con- or's experience should have rated him among the top Senate fresh- men. Instead, his groveling before the Republicans who are probing his election has lost him the re- spect of both Republicans and Democrats. He has bowed and tootlicked so much that no one knows what his politics and posi- tion are—perhaps not even O'Conor himself He going no place— unless it is back to Maryland. A Class E-minus Senator. James P. Kem, Missouri Repub- lican—an unimpressive, plodding party-liner. Class D. Spessard Holland, Florida Dem- ocrat—a slow starter, who began to sparkle toward the end session. Prior to that, few people realized he was in Washington. A Class C Senator W.liis Robertson, Virginia Dem- ocrat-—his presence in the Senate merely means that Senator Harry Byrd now has two votes instead of one. And much of the time those two votes were cast on the Republican side John S. Cooper, Kentucky Repub- of the lican—a rugged independent, Coop- er might make a real name for himself it he had more personal drive. A B-minus Senator. Harry Cain, Wasnington Repub- lican—has ability and a flair for theatrics, but his ability is usually found on the wrong side. During the campaign, his opponents charg- ed that Cain was a tool of the real-estate lobby and his voting record unquestionabiy bears that out. Taft sent $3,000 to Wash- ington to help get Cain elected, and Cain has followed Taft’s lead- ership on everything except the Taft Housing Bill. Except for top-rating Ives, Flan- ders, Sparkman and McGrath, al- ready discussed many times in this column, that is the Merry-Go- Round box-score on new members of the 80th Senate.
