dered from so doing by WaShburn and
Window
why" said the other, 'sdoes Davis
drag Window into the deal?''
simply because Davis fears that the
willy Willie will want a seat in the Sch
ate at the next senatorial election an
SwPred the first talker. davis realizes
that so lar he has done absolutely moth
ing 10 entitle him to reelection and
he's anxious that no one else snail do
anything"
