President Nominates Roberf H. 0'Brien For S. E. C. Post New Appointee Succeeds Eicher; Healy Is Induced To Withdraw Resignation President Roosevelt today nominated Robert H. O'Brien, associate director of the Public Utllities Division of the Securi- ties and Exchange Commission, to be an 8. E. C. commissioner. At the same time, the White House announced that Robert E. Healy has withdrawn his resignation from the commission at the request of the President. Mr. O'Brien will succeed Edward C. Eicher, who was recently appointed chief justice of District Court. | The President also sent two other nominations to the Senate today, calling for promotion of Col. Phillip R. Faymonville and of Col. Arthur R. Wilson to be brigadier generals. Col. Faymonville is now on assign- ment as secretary of the American supply mission in Russia and it is expected he will remain at that post after assuming his new rank. Closely related to this promotion of Col. Faymonville and his mission in Russia, the White House indi- cated today, is the question of selec- tion of a new Ambassador to the Soviet government. Maj. Gen. James H. Burns, deputy lease-lend administrator, has been | mentioned for that post but a White House spokesman indicated that in- volvement of this country in war December 7 has changed this plan. It was repeated, however, that the ambassadorship probably will g0 to some one qualified for war- time service, where emphasis is to lie on supply problems and military knowledge. This indication ap- parently rules out the possibility that Joseph E. Davies, who once served in Moscow, might be reap- pointed to that post. - Mr. Davies’ reappointment has been rumored. The shifting of Laurence Stein- hardt, now Ambassador to Turkey, | left the post vacant. N. A. M.

Brenda Marshall Joins|‘Ill Housed, Il Clad’ Speech Judged Roosevelt's Best - Questionnaires to Experts on>0rul’ory Reveal It Is Used as Model By FRANCIS DE SALES RYAN. Five years ago Tuesday, on January 20, 1937, President Roose- velt delivered the greatest speech of his presidential career to date, according to a jury of speech spe- cialists of national peputation. It was Mr. Roosevelt’s famous second inaugural address, in which he galvanized society into action by his graphic description of a vision in which he could see “one-third of a Nation ill-housed, ill-clad, ill- nourished.” Immediately after President Roosevelt’s historic war address be- fore Congress, the day following the | | Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, I sent a questionnaire to a group of 50 oratorical authorities asking them to consider all the Roosevelt ad-| dresses, from his acceptance speech in 1932 to the stately address at the Capitol on December 8, 1941, and to state which one they con- | sidered the greatest, judged accord- ing to the generally accepted stand- ards of oratory. The results of this questionnaire will be presented in a | book I am now writing. They were asked to cohsider all these addresses with regard to “speech architecture,” rhetoric, dic- | tion, climax, dramatic-interest and popular appeal. ' Anthoritative Judges Asked. orities 4nicl speech c't: at . Georgetown, Notre , Qolumbia, Ambherst, Vassar, D: Yale, Harvard and Princeton Uni- | versities, and the Universities of | ‘Wisconsin,” Michigan, California and | Virginia. It included also members of the Senate and House of Repre- sentatives, of the National Council of Teachers of Speech, of the Speech League of America, and of a group of ardent New Deal editors who had, written from time to time about President Roosevelt's elo- quence. By a majority of eight votes the position of pre-eminence among all of Mr. Roosevelt’s masterly presi- dential orations was awarded by the experts to the famous Roosevelt second inaugural address. A particularly and surprisingly strong vote for the second inaugural was cast by the university speech instructors, who variously described it as a masterpiece of architectural construction, eloquence and rhetor- ical excellence. Declaring that it is the speech which “perhaps more than other by Roosevelt has set the ke yfor American thinking,” Dr. Dwight Everett Watkins, associate professor of public speaking at the University of California, said: “Its famous phrase ‘ill-housed, ill-clad, ill-nourished’ has made a more enduring impression than any other statement of the same fact, although the fact itself was known long before Roosevelt so strikingly stated it. Masterpiece of Oratory. “All the cabins of the South, all the tenements of the great city, all the dilapidated farmhouses, were compressed into the one word, ‘ill- housed.” All poor beggars, trembling old men and women, shivering chil- dren, were pictured in ‘4ll-clad.’ All the hollow eyes, sunken cheeks, frail bodies, were depicted by ‘ill-nour- ished.” phrase caught on and furnished the country with a battle cry for further achievement. * * * It stands as a masterpiece of American oratory.” At Robeson University, Los An- geles, Dr. Joseph E. Hawn, head of the department of speech, said re- cordings of Roosevelt’s second in- augural address, made as the ad- dress was actually being delivered by the President at the Capitol, are still being used for the training of young speakers, not only in speech composition put also in forceful and effective delivery. He claims that in this one selec- tion the students will hear all the elements of oratory, all the points of skill acquired and used by a public speaker, and all the art there is in * CONRAD THIBAULT.

The method of using recordings is as follows: 1. When the speech classes as- semble, the recording of this one speech is played over several times while the students mentally try to analyze how the speaker produced his effects. Repeat Sentences. 2. When the record is played for two or three consecutive sentences, thé needle of the phonograph is lifted, and each of the students, with his voice, while the machine is silent, imitates the sentences as closely as possible. The needle is put back and the same procedure is continued with the next few sen- tences, and so on to the end of the record. 3. Finally, the phonograph is stopped entirely and one of the students, who is called upon by the instructor, tries to apply that which he has learned, by delivering the entire speech with as close imitation of the spoken record as his memory permits. The same general plan is followed in studying ‘the recording for the elements of pause, pitch, inflection, volume, time and quality. It is said that the repeated use of this one recording of Roosevelt's second in- augural with reference to each speech element in turn is giving the students a comprehensive un- derstanding of all' the laws of speech and is developing forceful and ef- fective speakers among the young students at Robeson. The president of the Cleveland School of Oratory, Dr. Herbert L. | Rochester, classes Mr. Roosevelt's second inaugural with “20 enduring | specimens of eloquence,” among | which he includes Demosthenes’ “On | the Crown,” Cicero’s “I Am a Citi- | zen of Rome,” Patrick Henry's “We, | the People, or We, the States” | ica,” Bryan's “Cross of Gold,” Inger- | soll's “Vision of War,” Clarence | Darrow’s “Plea to the Jury in the Trial of Willlam Haywood,” and other celebrated speeches. He in- }cludes no other inaugural address except Lincoln's second inaugural. Third Inaugural Not Selected. Choices among members of Con- |gress and the editors inclined to- | ward Mr. Roosevelt’s various ad- | dresses -during the present crisis. Several selected the first inaugural address, of March 4, 1933, but, singu- larly, none selected the third in- | augural, delivered one year ago. Of the second inaugural the edi- tor of the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette said that “it may be ranked with Lincoln's “Gettysburg Ad- dress,” Webster's “Reply to Hayne,” Bryan’s “Cross of Gold” speech, and Woodrow Wilson’s “Call for a Dec- laration of War Against the Ger- man Government.” President Roosevelt delivered his second inaugural address at noon on January 20, 1937, standing, ac- cording to ‘authorities, exactly over the spot on which Lincoln stood as he delivered his classic second in- augural. 2 A cold penetrating rain, mixed face and on his manuscript as he marched through the stately elo- quence of his masterpiece.

Axis Tank Forces Strike Back af Brifish in Libya : 10-Mile Penetration of Lines in Agheila Area Reported by Cairo BY the Associated Press. OAIRO, Egypt, Jan. 22.—Lash- ing out from the El Agheila area with mdst of the tanks still re- maining to him, the Axis com- mander, Gen, Erwin Rommel, has struck about 10 miles into Brit- ish imperial positions, the Near East command acknowledged today, but an informed source held that this was probably little | | more than a feeler stroke. y Besides testing the strength of the advanced columns facing him in the last Axis foothold in Cirenaica, it was said, Gen. Rommel might also have been seeking to relieve the pressure on his El Agheila positions and thus gain time to consolidate them for a real stand. The latest, though unofficial, re- ports from the Libyan desert front said the day-long Axis thrust was| turned back last night and it was believed that Gen. Rommel found stiffer opposition from the imperial forward than he had expected. Doubts Axis Takes Initiative. ‘The commentator said he would be “most s ” if Gen. Rom- mel’s move meant the Germans and their Italian comrades had taken the initiative or that a real coun- teroffensive had started.
