European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - October 24, 1964, Darmstadt, Hesse Page 6 the stars and stripes saturday october 24, 1964 Middle initials hidden that s the Imsho Straw by Dick West Washington up on of the imponderable elements inthe current presidential Campaign is the so called Midlash is a term coined by sen. Hubert h. Humphrey the democratic vice presidential candidate and is notto be confused with either the backlash or the a recent speech. Humphrey noted thai sen. Barry m. Gold water the Republican presiden tial candidate had been making ocular references to his Humphrey s Middle name which happens to be Horatio. Humphrey warned that if this continued. It could produce a Midlash that would work to go Minter s hidden Middle mime vote All those youngsters blessed by Loving parents with a Middle name they choose to convert tonn initial May Rise against him Humphrey , i do not have the facilities to determine whether such a Midlash has actually materialized. The Only Way to ascertain that would be to take a pre election poll of the hidden Middle name vote. I have however made an Effort to determine the size of the hidden Middle name vote. I did this by making n Survey of Sample group to see what percen Tage keeps the Middle name hid Den. The group 1 chose for the sur vey is composed of members of Congress. My source was the latest edition of the congressional shows that of the 435 . Representatives and 100 .senators, exactly 236, or approximately 45 per cent have hidden Middle names. That is they give Only their first names and mid dle initials in their official Biog 1 5 lawgiver or approximately 30 per cent list both first and Middle the Middle names bared to the Public sate arc Ignatius Thad Dew Aloysius Asa Raper the Tere 100 member of Congress or roughly 18 per cent who listed first name in � initial or Middle name. This Means that they either never Hada Middle name or they have dropped it and the initial As were in congressmen who gave a first initial and Middle name. Technically they would not be part of any mid lash since they have hidden first names. However they might be sympathizers. Also in the fringe category Are eight lawmakers who listed two initials and no first or Mledd renames and Throe who gave for names followed by two initials thereby hiding two Middle was one who Middle name with two tint a Toals and there were two who gave a first name and two my die names. Not Only that there Wen congressmen who listed Nick names. I have no idea How Tatj fit into the Midlash but a one who might change his Tor.
