The Newsletter this week
is a transcript of a broad-
cast of a Report of Texans
by Senator Yarborough and
U. S. Congressman Homer
Thornberry.)
Friends and Fellow Texans:
This week I have as my
guest on this weekly radio
report to the people of
Texas, Congressman-Judge
Homer Thornberry of Aus-
tin, now in the U.S.
Congress, who has been
appointed a federal judge
for the Western District of
Texas. He will assume
office in Texas on Decem-
ber 21. He was appointed
a federal judge by the late
President John F. Kennedy,
who was his friend.
Since Judge Thornberry
succeeded President
Johnson in the Congress and
represents Pres ident
Johnson’s old 10th Congres -
sional District, he has
been the member of Con -
gresswhohas been closest
to President Johnson these
past 15years,with the sole
exception of the late,
beloved Sam Rayburn.
I have asked Judge Thorn-
berry to give the people of
Tex&s his estimate of the
hallmarks that will dis-
tinguish Lyndon Baines
Johnson as President of the
United States.
CONGRESSMAN THORN-
BERRY: Thank you,
Senator Yarborough, for
having me on your pro-
gram . As you say, in a
few days I will ascend the
bench and go to El Paso.
I think that we can say
that the outstanding
hallmark of President
Johnson's administration
will be his ability to take
decisive action; to take
act ion that will help unify
the people of the United
States in providing a pro-
gram that will insure the
domestic welfare of the
United States, and at the
same time, present a
leadership to the Free
World for strength and
peace.
We a 1 ways talk about a
man's attributes, we talk
about his strengthof
character and integrity,
but in order to put those
into action, we have to
talk about whether he can
take decisive and prompt
action; I think President
Johnson has demonstrated
that ability in the few days
that he has been President.
SENATOR YARBOROUGH:
Judge Thornberry, I have
noticed some very similar
attributes in President
Kennedy and President
Johnson. Now we see the
columnists write that
P r e s i dent Kennedy was a
Harvard man and President
Johnson a Texas man; but
they do*have one strong
attribute in commom --
each of them didn't just
play safe all the time; they
took risks as they were
ambitious, able men. For
example, when President
Johnson ran for the Senate
in 1948, he gave up his
seat in the House. Had he
lost, he would have been
completely out. And so did
President Kennedy when he
ran for the Presidency. A
man has to have nerve; he
has to be able to take great
risks a nd great chances
politically; it takes a man
with boldness and courage
to govern this nation. I
agree with you-- one
closest to President John-
son that he is a man cf
boldness, action and
courage.
CONGRESSMAN THORN-
BERRYlI think that's right;
he has great courage, and
I think that he will act to
show that he has the cour-
age, and I think that he will
act to show that he has the
courage and he also has
great belief in the ability
of the government of the
United States to function.
And I think that's another
a 11 ribute that he has. He
believes in effective gov-
ernment, and I think that
you are going to find that
he will furnish leadership
to provide effective govern-
ment.

SALUTE: STANLEY "PETE’’ CLOW
Following staff-assistant training, Stanley Clow (A.B;,
1958), or “Pete” as he likes to be called, was made Com-
mercial Manager of the Sedalia, Missouri Business Office
of Southwestern Bell.
The Sedalia office serves approximately 18,000 cus-
tomers in five different towns. This takes a wide variety
of management talents, and Pete has proved his versa-
tility. He is accountable for results in five primary
fields: sales, collections, good customer service, work
volume and public relations. He directly supervises all.
personnel responsible for the success of these operations.
Even more important is the need to improve constantly
the quality of service by tailoring general practices to
local situations. The greatest personal reward to Pete is
seeing his recommendations put in effect... recommenda-
tions that mean better operations and better service.
, Pete Clow, like many young men, is impatient to make
things happen for his company and himself. There are
few places where such restlessness is more welcomed or
rewarded than in the fast-growing telephone business.
