nearly exact prototype of an increasingly melded American society
which has made him perhaps the first truly all-continental, the first
utterly non-regional, President in our history.
The past is in him, in his own frontier upbringing in the dry,
harshly clear air of the cattle country. The present is in him, in a
mandate from the electorate of trust and generosity expressed in a
popular voting majority of a vastness that is without example in the
long and lengthening story of the oldest practicing democracy in the
world.
The future is in him, in that unconscious blend of daring activism
and cautiously restrained and non-evangelical idealism with which he
proposes, God and the people willing, to make a Great Society with
which to spin the thickening thread of our national life beyond Wilson’s
New Freedom, Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal and Harry Truman’s
Fair Deal into a yet warmer and yet stouter national garment than we
have thus far known.

This, the first man save for Wilson to reach the Presidency from
a birthplace in the American South since the measureless tragedy of
the Civil War, has all this to do: To complete the unfinished mission
of our reconstruction and reconciliation; to quicken the march at home
of social justice and economic betterment while raising abroad an impenetrable shield of defense for all Western mankind.

ship as some few are born to play the violin with special skill, as some
few are born to paint with a beauty of line and color not attainable by
the many.
For nearly three decades before this climactic moment of his
career—the moment of taking the great oath to defend this Nation and
to guide and lead, and at last to obey and serve, this people—he has
deeply involved himself in the public life of this country and of his
times. A lifetime ago, or so now it seems, he stood as a young and
favored member of Congress in support of the great designs of his
first patron and mentor, Franklin Roosevelt, for breaking the grip of
Depression and preparing this country for the storm that would ravage
so much of the earth in the Second World War.
For eight years he occupied the center of power in the Senate
of the United States, as the leader of a responsible Opposition to a
Republican Administration which took its partisan duty to be to oppose
with reason and without bitterness and its higher duty to counsel with
prudence and loyalty as to serve the interests at last not so much of a
political party as of a Nation.
For three years, then, he was at the side of his chief, John F. Kennedy, as a loyal Second Man until the tragedy of assassination thrust
him forward into the place of that President he had served with devotion and skill and mutually felt respect. Then followed a somber twelve
months of trial and decision in which the Johnson Administration was
successor to the unfinished Kennedy Administration, both vindicating
the aims of the one and moving forward with the additional purposes
of the other.
It was a massive and moving demonstration of the capacity of
this Nation. under wise and firm and understanding leadership, to maintain its historic continuity, its institutions proudly intact and its central
missions not for a moment halted amidst shock and horror and loss.
And it was yet more than this: It was a year of marching victories
in legislation, of hardly exceeded economic acceleration, of a growing
sense of community and of maturing political attitudes in nearly every
part and faction of the country. Men and women, by and large, learned
a new kind of political and partisan dialogue. And so the American
political consensus, which knew that the area of agreement among us
upon the large and mortal issues was incomparably bigger in every
sense than the restricted area of disagreement dealing with manner
and method rather than form and substance, grew as never had it
grown before.
Under Mr. Johnson the people generally grasped perhaps for the
first time the bottom truth that partisan politics is only a means and
not itself a sacred principle and that the one proper purpose of political
activity is to raise up an acceptable, accepted and effective vehicle of
government. The one-time school teacher in Texas schools—and not

be said to beckon

with promise.”

unnaturally his job then had been the teaching of debate, with its inherent acceptance of the great truth that dissent is not only tolerable but
is in fact the other half of the millstone from which both truth and
civility are ground—was far from inactive in this national course in
adult public education.
There are moments when in mellow and reflective mood he would
not mind if historians should later say of him that he was a teacherPresident. Whether they will or will not, one thing is clear: In this
transition year of keeping the people drawn together and this government moving without jolt or pause he surely did not neglect, by word
and example, their education in the art of politics and their capacity
to distinguish the large and indispensable from the small and doubtful
in public affairs.
Now, therefore, for this thirty-sixth President of the United States
it is not today a beginning; for the beginning was a long time back.
It is a renewal, a resumption and—-again—a reunion of the sections,
the interests,

the

classes,

the

races,

as a new

Administration

opens

under already tried leadership the long battle with all those forces—
poverty of belly and mind at home and poverty of spirit and hope
abroad—which are arrayed against the fulfillment of man’s oldest and
least ignoble dreams: Liberty under order; enlightment under shared
truth; peace under justice; equity under law; equality before man as
before God.
No one can know how this Pilgrim’s Progress of the Sixties may
end in the far tomorrows. No one can promise—and least of all he—
that this President of the United States will be always right, that his
designs will all be accomplished and his programs all transformed from
hope into reality. Still, so far as human ingenuity and the human choice
of the people can make it so, the distant horizon may be said to beckon
with promise.
For if this new Pilgrim’s Progress is toward such immense objectives, the irreducible requirement of that progress is for a leadership
of unexcelled competence, of an informed, sensitive professional quality, in a world in which incompetence at the very top has become not
only a wrenching embarrassment but also a historic and irredeemable
crime.
This special competence, this tactile skill in making government
by consent and consensus not only work well but work also far above
the common passive denominators of its own structure, is the fortunate
and undoubted gift of a man from a little town bearing his name who
now reassumes all the power and the glory, and the unremitting and
incalculable burdens, of the Presidency of the United States.

America’s

First

Lady
By

Doris

Fleeson

Take a long look, ladies and gentlemen, at the elegant woman
whose lambent eyes glow with love and pride when her husband takes
the oath of office as President of the United States January 20, 1965.
You are getting two Presidents for your votes for one. In the
full power of their maturity, locked together by 30 hard working years
in the exacting art of politics, deeply respectful of each others talents,
Lyndon and Lady Bird Johnson are equally at your service.
Perhaps you have been a little confused by the affectionate nickname a nurse attached forever to her dainty little charge, Claudia
Alta Taylor. The soft southern voice and southern vernacular have
sometimes tempted sophisticates beyond their strength. It seems to
have escaped their notice that she has never been tempted to copy them.
Forget it. Mrs. Johnson is much too good and far too interesting
for cliches. The South formed her but could not contain her. She is all
a fascinating antithesis. A splendid businesswoman, filled with moral
earnestness. Efficient but serene. Intensely loyal and deeply committed
but tolerant, aware that there are many roads to heaven and to political
goals. She is always giving herself but always holds back the private
privilege of personal reserve.
A strong sense of duty ranks high on her list of virtues but she
is far from being one of Wordsworth’s stern daughters of the voice of

God. She will
and have fun herself.

Though she can be careful about money, except when the President wants something, the wear and tear on the White House will be
heavy during the Johnson tenure as its doors, upstairs and down, are
flung open to all kinds and conditions of people. It does not shake Mrs.
Johnson to see things used as well as admired.
The guests will enjoy much more than vague hospitality. If Mrs.

Johnson does not know about them, she will ask. It is remarkable to
see a woman of her age continuing to welcome new friends and to open
the doors of her mind. Clearly she sees her splendid place as an opportunity and not just a decoration to wear on her coat.
She herself probably could not pinpoint the moment at which
she decided to employ her full talents, directly and courageously, in her

national role. Washington was just getting used to the fact that much
of the help a Vice President gives the President was being quietly and
well done by the President’s wife when it was confronted by the Lady
Bird special campaign train.
Mrs. Johnson expertly organized this bold innovation and staffed
it with Southern women of political experience. Her aim was to show
the South that the Johnsons were of it and valued it even if they could

heart and it is a measure of his respect for his wife that he entrusted
it to her.
It was the most imaginative effort of the campaign and it succeeded. Even in the states where it did not carry the day it isolated

“The

Senator Goldwater in the boondocks with the racists a feat which will
trouble the Republicans for a long time.
None of this astonished those who had watched the then wife of
the Vice President recognize and attack what may be the single most

difficult aspect of modern Democratic government. This is the problem
of conveying to the country—indeed, by example to the world that in
the midst of a population explosion, urban congestion and upper class
isolation, people count.
Mrs. Johnson quietly made herself available to the many efforts
being made private and governmental, social and philanthropic to
penetrate the lonely crowd. She had the prestige, she found the time
and luckily she had the brains. It did not take long for those active
in such affairs to realize they had an ally.
The inspiration she has brought to women everywhere along the
75,000 miles she has traveled as First Lady is best expressed in the
words she spoke to the graduating class of Radcliffe College:
“The world cries out for you,” she told them. “From Appalachia’s
one-room schools to the cement jungles of our cities. I urge you to
enter these outlets—not as a superwoman, but as a total woman, a
happy woman.
“If you can achieve the precious balance between women’s
domestic and civil life, you can do more for zest and sanity in our
society than by any other achievement.”
Americans, once they had elected a President, have always tended,
barring catastrophes, to protect their investment. They chose him and
consider that the question of their good judgment is involved in his
standing. It is a personal and kindly attitude as distinguished from their
obvious patrotic duty to uphold the Presidency.
Curiously, they are generally less kind to his wife. Human nature
breaks out all over as she takes her prominent place in the White House
goldfish bowl.
All her experience, the many years when her active mind observed
reality from lesser and even grander place, must have told Mrs. Johnson this. With the moral courage which distinguishes her, she still is
playing the great part the President expects of her.

From the gentle, green hill country of Texas—where the old South

meets the West—President

and Mrs. Johnson and their two daughters,

Lynda Bird and Luci Baines, have brought a new brand of hospitality
to the White House in Washington.
It is a friendliness

a

welcome as refreshing as a field of Texas bluebonnets.

Seeing the great opportunities for young people today,
in her talks to groups she greets at the White House and in her
travels, she stresses the contributions youth can make to government. She calls hers the “volunteer generation,” and practices what she preaches. Last summer she worked as a volunteer in the office of one of the President’s assistants.
Despite her young years, brown-haired, brown-eyed
Lynda can meet the President’s associates—Senators and
Cabinet members—and talk to them on their own level.
Both Lynda and Luci have special talents as hostesses
and enjoy talking to the students, young people and adults

she supports her husband’s policies and underlines his programs in every way possible. To
this end she traveled more than 76,000 miles in the past year and made scores of speeches.
Still, in her gentle, dignified manner she finds time to be a companion and confidente
to their two daughters, 20-year-old Lynda Bird and 17-year-old Luci Baines, who remain
unspoiled from the glamorous routine of living in the White House.
Because their mother has taught them throughout the years not to feel important because of their father’s position, but to have respect for the job, neither girl asks for or expects
special privileges as Presidential daughters.
They are aware they live in the national spotlight and try to be the image of model
young Americans. Although this often means self-denial of personal pleasures to give first
attention to duty, neither girl complains.
Both Lynda and Luci traveled the campaign trails prior to the recent election and their
routes took them to Southampton, New York, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Indianapolis, Louisville, Nashville, St. Louis and Los Angeles.
Brown-haired, blue-eyed Luci, younger, impulsive and with her own distinct independence, often laments that she is the only non-politican in a political family. But she adjusts
well. She joins in the activity because she wants to be a member of the team, and she threw
herself so wholeheartedly into the campaign, she emerged a star.
As would any proud father, President Johnson boasts of her contribution: she gave up
every week-end from June to November to spend the time campaigning for him. To keep up

with her senior studies at National Cathedral School all the while, she carried her books
along on her travels.
Lynda Bird, a serious-minded history major at George Washington University, is appreciative of her vantage view of history in the making. She often comments that she studies
history when she is not watching people make it.

who visit the White House. They cheerfully join their hospitable parents in welcoming the many groups that come to call
on the President.
The Johnsons have brought much to the White House
besides a loyalty and dedication to the job of the Presidency
and to the principles on which this nation was founded.
They have brought also a determination to serve all the
people—not just special groups. They have brought youth—
the joy, laughter and romance of young girls standing on the
threshold of a wonderful age. But most of all they have
brought happiness—a happiness that reaches out to all who
know them.

United States is much more than a routine performance of a
function prescribed by the Constitution. It is even more than a
perpetuation of the most enduring democratic system of government that the world has ever known. In its broadest sense its
significance is even loftier and more transcendent than our own
national purpose. What it truly means can best be understood
when it is projected against those horizons of aspiration which
beckon free men everywhere—not only those who enjoy the blessings of freedom, but those also who valiantly seek it. Our solemn
Inaugural ceremony is an ennobling symbol of faith in the ultimate
triumph of an ideal, consecrated to all mankind.
Those of us who have been privileged to play some humble
role in this magnificent enterprise have been enriched beyond
measure by the experience. Though there are limits beyond which
the most eloquent word and the most graphic picture can go, in
expressing the depth of a sentiment, we feel that within the pages
of this impressive book you may yet divine something of the emotions that moved us so deeply in our dedication to our task. We
invite you within these pages to share those emotions with us.
We invite you to the haven of our memories, to live again with
us through a period of time which paid tribute to our glorious
heritage, and thrust aloft a challenge to our posterity.

Parade

The single most significant ceremony in a nation largely devoid of pomp and pageantry
is the Inauguration of the President and Vice President of the United States.
An important event during that ceremonial period is the Inaugural Parade. The parade
is also a ceremony, based on tradition and bringing into central focus and participation out
fifty States and Territories, as well as the Executive, Judicial and Legislative branches of the
Government.
Once the President and Vice President have reached the reviewing stand in front of
the White House, the parade proceeds in traditional order. The first division consists of the
various services. According to precedence, based on the dates of their establishment, the
Academies of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, and Merchant Marine pass in
review. They represent the armed forces of the United States and associated services and the
professional corps of future leaders. The dream of our national tradition as a peaceful nation
can best be realized through strength, and the Academies are symbolic of that strength as
they report to their Commander-in-Chief.
In addition to the Academies, the active forces, in order of precedence, head up each

division of the remainder of the parade. The honor of leading the parade is accorded the
States of Texas and Minnesota, as the homes of the President and Vice President respectively,
and the District of Columbia as host to the Inauguration. Thereafter the order of precedence
is determined by the date on which each State entered the Union or became established as
a Territory.
Each State unit is headed by its Governor; and participating with the Governors are
bands, marching units, and floats representing the people of their States and Territories.
To streamline the parade the line of march as well as the number of persons participating
have been changed from previous Inaugurals. The non-military and other sections join the
line-of-march at Third Street and Constitution Avenue, thereby reducing by one and one-half
miles the distance previously marched when the entire parade formed in front of the Capitol.
By limiting each State, with the exceptions of Texas and Minnesota, to one band, one marching unit, and one float, a smoother and more compact parade is planned. The tighter formations will produce a more dramatic spectacle for the 500,000 spectators and the 200,000,000
others who will view the impressive proceedings via the television networks of the world.

The Inaugural Ceremony is a prerogative of the Congress. Through the Joint Inaugural Committee of
that body, plans, arrangements, invitations, protocol, seating and the many other details surrounding the

momentous event are carried out. The ceremony itself is conducted on the East Portico of the National Capitol.
Here members of the Senate and House of Representatives, having convened in the Senate and House
shortly before, arrive as a body and take their seats. Next the Joint Inaugural Committee escorts the Chief
Justice of the United States and the Associate Justices of the Supreme Court from the Office of the Secretary
of the Senate to their seats. Members of the President’s Cabinet are escorted to their assigned seats, followed

by the Governors of the States, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Chiefs of the Armed

Services,

and finally the Ambassadors and Ministers of Foreign Countries. At this time the Committee on Arrangements
escorts the President-elect and Vice President-elect to the Inaugural Platform for the ensuing ceremonies.
Then, before the distinguished guests and thousands of the general public assembled on the Capitol
grounds, the Speaker of the House administers the oath to the Vice President-elect. Shortly thereafter the
Chief Justice administers the oath to the President-elect, and the oldest continuous constitutional government
in the world continues uninterrupted,

Griffith

Hubert H. Humphrey, who becomes Vice President of the United
States in the fifty-third year of his life and the twenty-first year of his
political career, is an uniquely American politican.
|
He was born in a room over his father’s drug store, facing Main
Street, in the prairie village of Wallace, South Dakota. He grew up in
the open land at the center of the continent, where the voices of American pioneers were stronger than the echoes of European society.
The political and literary heroes of his childhood were American:
Patrick Henry and Thomas Jefferson, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry
Wadsworth Longfellow. As a child, he liked to dream and to explore.
He was often the brave Knight Roland, “riding a big horse into the
woods to slay a dragon.” Later, he climbed a hundred foot high watertank tower, “even though everyone told me I shouldn’t or couldn’t. But
I liked it at the top. .. . You could see for such a long way, above the
flatness.”
The most profound influences on his life came from his father,
from the rural communities of his youth, and from the depressiondrought decade of his early manhood.
Hubert Horatio Humphrey Sr. was a rare man. He was a businessman with a normal interest in profit, but when he bought radio time
on a local station to read poetry he mentioned his church, and not his
store, as the sponsor. He was a Democrat in a predominantly Republican region and an internationalist in a period of isolationism. He liked
to re-read aloud William Jennings Bryan’s “Cross of Gold” speech at
the dinner table. Sometimes, he placed his son on his knee and recited
Woodrow Wilson’s “Fourteen Points.” He pointed to news stories from
Washington or Moscow or Tokyo and told his son, “You should know
about this, Hubert; it might affect you someday.”

The rural communities of Wallace and Doland were small and
simple, isolated and contained. “In those little towns,” Humphrey has
said, “privacy did not matter; people were important.” He is still grateful for a pattern of community life in which the family, the school and
the church were the strongest forces, and for a society of neighbors
which “conditioned me to care deeply about others, to share their joys,
to suffer their sorrows.”
The depression and drought of the 1920’s and 1930’s drove him
out. (“It was so hot, so terribly hot... . The dust, it was everywhere.
... Lhere was a desolation, a drabness. . . . You felt trapped.” ) For
ten years, he struggled against economic stagnation and the effects of
drought and dust storms. The period scarred him, but he says that
those years “enriched me, and gave me a certain toughness and patience.” The experience also enveloped his lofty idealism with an
earthly pragmatism, transformed his opinions into convictions, and
cloaked his ideas with a passion to put them into practice. It compelled him, always, to interpret statistics and other bland measurements of poverty and disaster into human terms.
The habit of struggle drove him through the University of Muinnesota (Phi Betta Kappa and magna cum laude in 1939), Louisiana
State University (a Master’s Degree in Political Science), and a series
of administrative jobs with New Deal agencies and teaching positions
in Minnesota. In 1943, he turned full-time to politics, with a close but
unsuccessful race for Mayor of Minneapolis. He won in 1945, and
for three years fought crime, anti-Semitism, municipal decay in housing and education and indolent bureaucrats who said “It can’t be
done.” Even the most conservative Republicans admitted that Humphrey became “the best Mayor in the city’s history.”

The year 1948 was a major turning point. He led a successful effort to purge Communists from the ranks of the Democratic Farmer-Labor Party in Minnesota, attracted national attention with an electrifying speech on civil rights at the Democratic Convention,
and in a November landslide victory became the first Democrat ever elected from Minnesota
to the United States Senate.
For the next sixteen years, he rarely relaxed, and never brooded about occasional political setbacks. A combination of work and wit, courage and conviction, and a capacity for
conciliation and leadership won respect, friendships and alliances in the Senate. He was
elected Assistant Majority Leader in 1961. Years of eloquent advocacy, tedious study and
patient work by Humphrey were in large measure responsible for some of the most progressive legislation to come out of Congress in a decade: the Food for Peace program, the Peace
Corps, the United States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, ratification of the nuclear
test ban treaty, and the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Hubert Humphrey’s optimism, his love of life, and his compassion have earned him a
gift which he prizes far more than the legislative achievements listed in the Congressional

Record or the framed awards which cover the walls of his office: the affection and respect
of millions of Americans with whom he identifies and involves himself.
On the eve of his nomination to the Vice Presidency in 1964, Humphrey stood for a
few moments at the edge of a sundeck overlooking the beach at Atlantic City. A few Democratic Convention delegates and a score of vacationers, strolling the boardwalk below, looked
up, recognized him, and called their greetings. Unconcerned about the images of Senatorial
or Vice Presidential dignity, he chatted with them about the progress of the convention, the
warmth of the evening and the beauty of the sea. “I wish I could be down there with you,”
he said. At that comment, the cluster of people applauded, and a woman called up, “We're
with YOU, Humphrey!”
He was touched. Stepping back out of sight of the boardwalk, he nodded toward the
people below and said to a television reporter preparing to interview him:
“You know, this is one of the nice things about politics. You go a long way and work
a long time and travel to many places. Finally, many people know you and recognize you
and are friendly. I like that.
“I guess I haven’t gotten this the easy way, this friendship of so many people. I’ve made
a lot of mistakes. To get this friendship and maybe the respect of people takes a lot of
doing, my way. It takes a lot of years.”
More than a century ago, Alexis de Toqueville wrote of an essential element in the
American character which helps to describe Hubert Humphrey:

“They (Americans) have all a lively faith in the perfectability of man... . They all
consider society as a body in a state of improvement, humanity as a changing scene, in
which nothing is, or ought to be, permanent; and they admit that what appears to them
today to be good may be superseded by something better tomorrow. . . . America is a land
of wonders, in which everything is in constant motion and every change seems an improvement... . No natural boundary seems to be set to the efforts of man; and in his eyes what
is not yet done is only what he has not yet attempted to do.”
Winthrop Griffith is author of “Humphrey, A Candid Biography,”
to be published in February by William Morrow and Company.

Mid’ all the traffic of the ways,

A little shelter from Life’s stress,

Turmoils without, within,
Make in my heart a quiet place,

Where I may lay me prone,
And bare my soul in lowliness,

A little shrine of quietness,
All sacred to Thyself,
Where Thou shalt all my soul possess,
And I may find myself;

A little place of mystic grace,
Of self and sin swept bare,
Where I may look into Thy face
And talk with Thee in prayer.

And come and dwell therein!

And know as I am known;

The

Humphrey

By

Griffith

Patricia

She has a spontaneous warmth and twinkling
charm that captivate those around her. Her blue
eyes glow with gentle good humor, and her
quick smile radiates great friendliness, and compassion. Instinctively she can put one person,
or a roomful, at ease, because she is at ease
with herself. There is not one iota of sham or
pretense or stiffness about her, which, in an era
of intense

status-consciousness,

makes

Muriel

in

Huron,

Humphrey a very rare and special person.
She shares with her husband the heritage of
the

rural

Midwest.

Her

roots

are

South Dakota, where she was born Muriel Fay
Buck on February 20, 1912. Her father ran his
own produce business until the economic devastation of the depression forced him to sell at a
great loss. It was a brutal lesson in personal
hardship and tragedy she saw repeated in family
after family.
In school Muriel Buck was an excellent student and a talented pianist. She was attending
Huron College when she wandered into the
Humphrey drug store one afternoon and met a
talkative young soda jerk who dispensed New

Family
Deal enthusiasm along with every chocolate
soda. He proved equally nimble on his feet,
and spun Muriel off to dances at the local pavilion on Wednesday and Saturday nights. Two
years later, on the morning of September 3,
1936, they were married.
Hubert Humphrey’s bride had a bouyancy
and zest for hard work that matched his own.
She cut short her college studies to work fulltime to speed his return to the University oi
Minnesota for a degree in political science.
Three months before he was graduated, their
daughter Nancy was born. When they moved
on to Louisiana State University on a graduate
fellowship, she typed at home to supplement
his modest grant. She was also up at dawn each
day to make stacks of sandwiches which her
husband sold to fellow graduate students for
ten cents each.
“We learned early that we could survive
under the poorest of circumstances, no matter
what setbacks we had,” she says. “What better
way is there to prepare for an elective public

life?”

Their public life together began in 1943, and
in the exciting tumultous years since, Muriel
Humphrey has managed to provide a restful
homelife out of public view. Her first concern
has always been her family, which grew to include sons Skip (Hubert III), Robert and Douglas. An excellent cook and immaculate housekeeper, she relaxes by sewing most of her own
clothes, from elaborate brocade evenings gowns
to smartly tailored suits. She is an ardent
gardner and has completely landscaped the
grounds of the Humphreys’ home on Lake Waverly, west of Minneapolis.
As her children have grown, she has taken
on an increasingly active political role. In 1960
she campaigned on her own in Wisconsin and
West Virginia during the Presidential primaries,
and later hitched a coffee trailer to her car and
drove through farming communities in Minnesota boosting her husband’s re-election to the
Senate. This past fall she travelled even more—
into 35 states, including Alaska and Hawaii,
giving speeches, shaking hands and, in her
words, “just visiting with the people.” She loved
it;
If official duties take the Humphreys’ overseas in the coming months, she will be well prepared. She has been a “working partner” on

past trips through Europe, the Middle East and
Latin America, visiting schools, hospitals and
rehabilitation centers. She has logged two trips
to Moscow. The first, in 1958, was unexpectedly
climaxed by Senator Humphrey’s eight-hour
conversation with Khrushchev. She returned in
August 1963 as the only Senate wife present
for the signing of the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty,
a memorable occasion she ranks as a high point
of her life.

Neither time nor official responsibilities have
dimmed her refreshing enthusiasm to learn
something new. While in Hawaii at the end of
the campaign, she put aside politics one afternoon to try surfing for the first time. Her reaction? “Marvelous!”
There are now two granddaughters to add
joy and laughter to the Humphrey household.
Vicki,

4, and Jill, almost

3, are the daughters

of Nancy and Bruce Solomonson, who live in
a suburb of Minneapolis. Skip and his wife,
Nancy Lee, attend American University in
Washington, where he is studying pre-law.
Robert is a sophomore business major at Mankato State College in Minnesota, and Douglas
attends Shattuck School in Faribault, Minn.,
where he is a junior.

There are larger and older American cities. But
Washington, D. C. remains the Mecca of every American traveler.
History never stands still in Washington. It is still being
enacted today. It does not overwhelm this city. New painting,

new

music,

new

philosophical

movements,

the most

challenging literature in United States and quests for the
American dream have originated here.
Washington is the political and administrative capital of

America. Here, where conferences of state are held, museums

venerable monuments weave the threads of America’s history

into the fabric of the present. It is the home of the United
States Capitol, the Pentagon, the State Department, the
Jefferson Memorial, the Supreme Court. It is a workshop where
thousands of dedicated people have worked to make the
reality of the American dream a truth and not just a vision.

and

The White House is a unique American institution.
It is first of all the President’s home, but in a very
real sense it is the home of the American people.
The White House is probably the least
pretentious residence of the head of state of all the
major countries of the world. Yet it is without doubt
one of the most beloved symbols of American democracy.
The public rooms are simple, but dignified. The family
rooms are spacious and comfortable, but bear no
resemblance to the official residences of other countries.
In short The White House is the best expression
of American democratic ideals. Beauty without ostentation,
dignity which finds expression in simplicity, are
what make The White House America’s

sre

eit

neni

finest home.
