By Pam Troboy Battalion News Editor Urgent problems facing the United States today require that Congress initiate as well as legis late, Congressman Bob Eckhardt said Thursday in a Political For um presentation. Recognizing the “tremendous challenge” of such problems as war and peace, under-education and training, neglected public service and environment, Con gress has moved to fill the vac uum created by President Nix on’s lack of action, the Houston representative told a capacity crowd. The Democrat from the 8th Congressional District was sub stituting for Sen. Strom Thur mond of South Carolina. Thurmond told Political Forum chairman Charles Hoffman Wed nesday at 6 p.m. that a critical civil rights bill scheduled for floor debate at noon Thursday would prevent him from appear ing at A&M. Later that night hecklers at the University of New Mexico prevented the senator from mak- BATTALION CLASSIFIED Political Announcements Subject to action of the Dem ocratic Primary May 2, 1970. For U.

Hoffman said that he intended to reassure the senator that he would not face that problem at A&M if he were able to return at a later date. Hoffman announced at the presentation that Eckhardt was flying in to speak as a personal favor to Sen. Ralph Yarborough. Eckhardt said that Congress had been criticized as “do little” and “stick in the mud” and that there was a lot of truth in the criticism. “The President is a sort of super legislate r,” he said. “Through his initiative processes, he gives Congress direction. “But with both houses in the hand of the other party,” he said, “it is difficult to initiate a posi tive program.” Eckhardt claimed that Presi dent Nixon has “muted the voice of the presidency,” and has given Congress no leadership. He said that in order to initiate action the democratic party has reverted to the use of the caucus and study group. He said that caucus machinery provided the impetus for tax re form legislation and that a task force created by a study group initiated legislation on consumer class action. This bill is needed, he said, so that people who are affected by the problems can initiate action and not wait for governmental agencies to act. “Merely talking is not enough,” he said. “We have to say how we are to improve. Society only progresses by developing the process of progress. “G r e a t governmental docu ments such as the Magna Carta pointed not to the objective but to the means, he said. “We need to devise these means in Con gress, and we are moving to wards them.” On Theatrics Here Tuesday A Houston educator will speak on “Comments on Theater in Education” at 3 p.m. Tuesday in the Architecture Auditorium.
