Teddy To Assume Quiet Senator Role
WASHINGTON - (UPI) - Sen Edward M. (Ted) Kennedy observes his 31st birthday tomorrow, his first as a Senator, determined to follow the advice of an 85-year-old colleague who has been in Congress since 1912.
Sen. Carl Hayden, D-Ariz., the Senate's quietest man, claims that the less one says, the less trouble he makes for himself.
The Massachusetts Democrat has been the subject of three biting attacks from fellow Senators, all Republicans.
KENNEDY HAS adopted a similar attitude but being the President's brother doesn't make it easy.
Sen. Kenneth B. Keating, R-N.Y., who has been one of President Kennedy's most vocal critics on Cuba policy, criticized Sen. Kennedy's bid to get work for Massachusetts firms from the Grumman Aircraft and Engineering Corp., a New York firm.
SEN. NORRIS COTTON, R-NH.
subsequently accused the administration of handing Sen. Kennedy a $2.5 million water pollution laboratory for Boston.
Sen. Clifford Case, R-NJ., implied there was political favoritism when a $50 million space research center was announced for the Boston area.
The young senator has taken the criticism in stride as being part of the political game. He also feels this kind of criticism can do no harm politically in Massachusetts if
he is subject to attack because of his attempts to get work for the Bay State.
BUT WHAT IS overlooked by many observers is that Kennedy needs no publicity to make himself known whereas other freshman senators yearn for a national image. He has one — that of "the President's brother" — that he is trying to play down.
Much has been said about Kennedy's shyness toward national publicity at this stage in his Senate career.
Kennedy has told friends that he needs to implant a firm image as a senator from Massachusetts who is trying to learn the ropes and do the most he can for his home state.
He has followed his plan to turn down out-of-state speaking offers but goes out of his way to meet with Massachusetts groups who come here with problems.
Kennedy also feels, however, that he is approached by some home state people asking for help just because he is the President's brother.
One businessman said privately after a meeting with Kennedy, "He shook my hand, said hello, and gave me a look as though I voted the straight Republican ticket — which I did."
