DEMOCRATIC PIPELINE Ousted as baseball commisisoner, unhappy “Happy” Chandler has been making the rounds of his Democratic friends seeking the new job of Democratic National Chair- man. . .Senator Kerr of Oklahoma is lining up the powerful oil and gas interests behind ex-Gov. Roy Turn- er of Oklahoma to be National Chairman. . .Ed Flynn, Democratic boss of the Bronx, slipped his can- didate, Paul Fitzpatrick, in the White House side door for a sécret talk with the President about be- coming Democratic Chairman. How- ever, insiders say the President pri- vately favors Robert Butler, the St. Paul shipbuilder. . .Outgoing Demo- cratic Chairman Bill Boyle is tak- ing no chances on having the Demo- cratic National Committee electing a dark horse to succeed him. He has sent out invitations to all National| Committeemen to attend the elec- tion meeting or send their proxies on October 31. At the bottom of the invitations, however, Boyle has typ-| ed the following postscript: “Un- less you wish to make the proxy out to any particular person, it would simplify our handling of the meeting if you omit any name and permit me to fill it in” TENNESSEE FEUDIST The incident was hushed up, but shortly before Congress.adjourned, | 82-year-old Senator McKellar of | Tennessee added round six to his record as the Senate’s most belli- cose member. In past encounters, McKellar has tried to bean one victim with a| gavel, boot another in the pants, flail another with a roll of news- papers—and once he landed a sur- prise left hook. This time, however, McKellar at- tacked with his walking stick. The incident took “place behind closed doors of the Senate Appropriations Committee. The victim was displaced persons Commissioner Harry Rosen- field, who made the mistake of in- | | standing. “I beg your pardon, Sir?"I He kept repeating. Finally, McKellar snapped:. “Isn't | there anyone around here who un=- derstands anything about this?” Rosenfield jumped up to his col- | league’s defense. “If the chairman of the Displaced Persons Commission doesn’t know | anything abkout displaced perspns. .- Rosenfield began. But McKellar cut him off. “You can't talk to me like that!”| | he shrieked. “You sit down! I don't| want to hear another word irom} vou at. this meeting!” Shaking with anger and shouting | incoherently, McKellar picked up! his cane and lunged at Rosenfield.!| The commissioner ducked and the; blow narrowly missed his head. | This was round six for McKellar, whose other publicly disclosed brawls include: Round 1—McKellar started to pull a clasp-knife from his pocket and advanced toward the late Sen- { ator Copeland of New York on the Senate floor. Colleagues restrained him. Round 2—McKellar took offense at United Press reporter Dayton Moore's questioning, whopped him over the head with a roll of news- papers. Round 3—Nashville publisher Sil- liman Evans greeted McKellar courteously in a Washington hotel, ‘1 but the old man landed a poke that caught Evans off balance. Round 4—A representative of this column asked McKellar his age. | The aged Tennessean replied by | raining blows on the reporter's head. Round 5—McKellar got into an appropriations argument with Con- | gressman Cannon of Missouri, tried to settle it crowning Cannon with a gavel. It's getting so that both Congress- |men and newsmen find it safer to steer clear of the Senator from Ten- nessee, WASHINGTON PIPELINE T¥: freshman Congressmen’s din- ner for Senator Taft was switched the last minute from the Congres- sional Hotel to the Hotel 2400—be- cause Murray OIlf, the Washing- ton lobbyist for racketeer Frankie Costello, lives at the Congressional .Congressicnial investigators, checking on scandals inside the In- ternal Revenue Bureau, are using assumed names.
