Summary, etc. Mr. Frederick W. Haberman, Associate Professor of Speech, University of Wisconsin, in his talk before the Madison Rotary Club sometime ago on the subject of "MacArthur's Speech to Congress: A Cross-Section of Criticism," made the following interesting remarks: "The MacArthur address is one of the most dramatic speaking occasions of the twentieth century. The speech itself will be included in anthologies; the incident will go down in the history books; some sayings from the speech will pass into our language. MacArthur has many of the requisites of an orator: intellect, knowledge, moral force, physical presence, a feel for language." Professor Haberman traced the events leading up to the speech. on April 19, described the occasion itself and concluded this section of his talk with some objective comments about the length of the speech and Mac-Arthur's rate of speaking. Mr. Haberman stated that the forty-nine million. Americans who composed the radio, television, and face-to-face audience became speech erities overnight. This criticism ranged from the descriptions of MacArthur as God to denunciations of him as Satan; it reached extremes of the emotional and of the philosophical. To gather a set of comments on this extraordinary speech and to obtain some samples of contemporary criticism, Mr. Haberman obtained some especially written commentaries from three groups of critics: congressional critics, journalistic critics, and academic critics. In the remainder of his talk, Mr. Haberman read excerpts from this "cross-section" of criticism. His own opinion is that MacArthur was greater in delivery than in content or in composition.
