COMMITTEE ON THE JUDICIARY February 4, 1964 Honorable Daniel K. Inouye Chairman, Speakers Bureau Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Washington 25, D.C. Dear Dan: Thank you for your letter of February 3 in which you outlined pre­ liminary plans for the Speakers Bureau of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee for engagements during the 1964 senatorial campaign. You may be sure that I will be glad to help in any way possible to the extent that my obligations to assist in the Indiana election and other previous commitments will permit. The physical arrangements you men­ tioned seem very adequate and are quite satisfactory. In reply to your request for specific information, I trust the follow­ ing will be helpful: 1. Introduction. In most circumstances a simple introduction as "Birch Bayh, Junior Senator from Indiana, chairman of the Judiciary Sub­ committee on Constitutional Amendments," might suffice. Other information which could be included would be my advocacy of youth programs, leadership in aid to education measures, support of conservation of water resources, and my selection as one of the ten outstanding young men by the rational Junior Chamber of Commerce. 2. Other Activities. If time will allow, I would be willing to meet at least on some trips with various local politicians, businessmen, students or other groups. Of course, you realize full well the many duties which could hamper my participation in these kinds of activities. 3. Subject Matters of Speeches. I would prefer to talk on the fol­ lowing topics: civil rights; education; general Democratic programs. Please call on me if we can provide any further information. I will be looking forward to learning about your plans in more detail. Sincerely, Birch Bayh United States Senator CARL HAYDEN, ARIZ., CHAIRMAN RICHARD B. RUSSELL, GA.

Dear Dan: Here are the answers to the questions asked in your February 3, letter. 1. Introduction. My practice is to furnish a current biographical sheet, sample enclosed, and trust to luck. 2. Other activities. I am willing, as time allows, and with reasonable provision for rest and privacy. 3. Subject matter of speech. I have an "all- purpose" speech for partisan political occasions. I adapt it to the local situation, of course, and its basic content evolves with use to allow for changes in the mold of the public and in the issues which concern them. It is quite general in scope, and could not be described as dealing mostly with civil rights, national defense, peace, or any other single issue, although it touches upon these and others. PAUL H.

  • Richard Russell, the Senate Armed Services Committee & Oversight of America’S Defense, 1955-1968
    BALANCING CONSENSUS, CONSENT, AND COMPETENCE: RICHARD RUSSELL, THE SENATE ARMED SERVICES COMMITTEE & OVERSIGHT OF AMERICA’S DEFENSE, 1955-1968 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Joshua E. Klimas, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor David Stebenne, Advisor Professor John Guilmartin Advisor Professor James Bartholomew History Graduate Program ABSTRACT This study examines Congress’s role in defense policy-making between 1955 and 1968, with particular focus on the Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC), its most prominent and influential members, and the evolving defense authorization process. The consensus view holds that, between World War II and the drawdown of the Vietnam War, the defense oversight committees showed acute deference to Defense Department legislative and budget requests. At the same time, they enforced closed oversight procedures that effectively blocked less “pro-defense” members from influencing the policy-making process. Although true at an aggregate level, this understanding is incomplete. It ignores the significant evolution to Armed Services Committee oversight practices that began in the latter half of 1950s, and it fails to adequately explore the motivations of the few members who decisively shaped the process. SASC chairman Richard Russell (D-GA) dominated Senate deliberations on defense policy. Relying only on input from a few key colleagues – particularly his protégé and eventual successor, John Stennis (D-MS) – Russell for the better part of two decades decided almost in isolation how the Senate would act to oversee the nation’s defense.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

  • The President Pro Tempore of the Senate: History and Authority of the Office
    Order Code RL30960 The President Pro Tempore of the Senate: History and Authority of the Office Updated April 2, 2008 Christopher M. Davis Analyst in American National Government Government and Finance Division The President Pro Tempore of the Senate History and Authority of the Office Summary The U.S. Constitution establishes the office of the President pro tempore of the Senate to preside over the Senate in the Vice President’s absence. Since 1947, the President pro tempore has stood third in line to succeed to the presidency, after the Vice President and the Speaker of the House. Although the President pro tempore’s powers are limited and not comparable to those of the Speaker of the House, as the chamber’s presiding officer, he is authorized to perform certain duties. For example, he may decide points of order (subject to appeal) and enforce decorum in the Senate chamber and galleries. Early in the nation’s history, some Presidents pro tempore appointed Senators to standing committees. While they no longer do so, election to the office is considered one of the highest honors bestowed by the Senate, and Presidents pro tempore are traditionally accorded a somewhat larger salary and allowances for staff. Eighty-seven different Senators have served as President pro tempore. Sixty- one served prior to 1900, when Vice Presidents routinely presided over the chamber and Presidents pro tempore were elected to serve only for limited periods when the Vice President was absent or ill, or the office was vacated. Frequently, several different Presidents pro tempore were chosen in a single congressional session, “on the basis of their personal characteristics, popularity, and reliability.” (See Robert C.
