Optimists Given Glimpse of Top Lawmakers by Franklin Steinko Franklin A. Steinko, past president of Optimist International, formerly the official reporter of the powerful United States senate foreign relations committee, addressed a joint meeting of the Optimist and 20-30 club members last night in the Optimist Youth Center building. Speaking on the subject, "Important Men in the News," the guest speaker made intimate observations of those senators responsible for framing our nation's foreign policies through the years 1946-1951. Appointed by Senator Vandenburg to act as the official reporter, it was Steinko's duty to take down all testimony given in committee. Based upon intimate acquaintance with such famous personalities as Senators Vandenburg, Atherton, Connelly, Tydings, Tobey, Capper, Sparkman, Knowhand, Taft, Ferguson, Langer and Lodge, he gave the clubmen a clear insight into how the senators conduct the business of the nation. Discussing the recent resolution that so prominently figured in the headlines concerning a resolution condemning Russia for failure to live up to the Yalta agreement, Steinko pointed out that President Eisenhower was reluctant to revoke the entire Yalta pact as it would strategically affect our military troops stationed in several European countries. The bickering attitude of certain Republican senators might have proven extremely embarrassing if it had not been for the fortunate death of Russian leader, Stalin. "We have an outstanding leader representing this nation at the United Nations," stated Steinko.
