In the midst of all that can be said

push through deals that often give the
adherents of monarchical forms Of
government a chance to grow cynical,
but the stain never is put on the AM
erican woman in Washington There
are fewer scandals i'm Washington
than in any capital of the world, and
this phase Of the nations life never
fails of tribute from foreign diplomats
located in Washington.
