TAKES SLAP ATFDR, JR. WASHINGTON, Fep. 3— (P —A Republican suggested in the Houst today that Rep. Franklin D. Roose- velt, Jr., stay away from New York night clubs and show up oftener a House meetings. Rep. Brown of Ohio told his col- leagues the young Democrat-Libera from New York had answered only 60 of the 129 roll calls since the start of the session Jan. 3. Roosevelt was not present when Brown spoke. “There is grave concern among friends of this young man over the fact that he isn’t here as much as he should be” Brown said. He added: “I'd like to say to all the mem- bers of the House that you simply can't learn the rules of this House in a nightelub in New York,” Brown said. “You simply can’t solve any of the great social and moral prob- lems by nocturnal mediation on 52nd Street. You've got to be right here to solve them.” Brown also accused Roosevelt of several ‘“misstatements” about Brown’s position on anti-job dis- crimination (FEPC) legislation.
