Johnson’s 5flth birth day — and very possibly the hap piest day of his life. It is the day he returns to At Jantlc City, N.

AND MRS. — Sen. and Mrs. Hubert Humphrey pose for a picture together In their Atlantic City hotel. (NEA Telephoto) Promises LBJ To Stay In Background Civil Rights Chief Is Running Mate ATLANTIC CITY — Civil rights champion Sen. Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota, picked last night as President Johnson’s running mate, has given his word of honor to the President that he will remain strictly in the background, that he’ll do and say only what LBJ wants him to say. “The Vice President has very little freedom of action*” he ack nowledged in an interview with the Wall Street Journal. “The job de pends completely on what the President wants you to do. Humphrey’s selection came as a disappointment to Southiern De mocrats because it was Humphrey who served as floor manager of the Civil Rights bill and rammed it through the Senate It was also a speech by the fiery liberalite Humphrey that caused Southern Democrats to walk out of the 1956 convention. Sen. Humphrey claims, now. however, that he has moved from the extreme far left position and ed chiefly to hearing acceptance speeches by President Johnaen and to a memorial tribute honor ing the late President Kennedy^ • Attorney General Robert Ken nedy will present the film honor ing his late brother, entitled, “A Thousand Days.” A mighty demonstration is plan ned for Johnson. Johnson, a master showman aa well as a master politician, paid an unerpected and triumphal visit to Atlantic City Wednesday night to announce to the wildly cheer ing delegates of the Democratic National Convention his choice of a vice presidential running mate, Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey of Minnesota. Though the feeling had been building for weeks that the ebul lient Humphrey would get the nod, Johnson spun out the drama almost to the last moment — but not quite. In an impromptu news conference at nearby Andrews Air Force Base, Md., shortly be fore his flight to Atlantic City Wednesday night he introduced the smiling Humphrey as “the ,next vice president.” Decision Began Earlier Johnson’s day of decision began many hours earlier with a brisk 15-lap walk around the south lawn of the White House — the equivalent of almost four miles. At first he told a panting thron of accompanying newsmen, “we’vt gotten close to decision,” and left it at that. Then on lap No. 11 or 12, he said casually, “you can say that I said I would probably call Sen. Humphrey ir. the afternoon, and if he is agreeable ■ ■ ask him if he would like to come down here."
