Hard Work al Washington

Cursory readers Of events at the
capital hardly crap the magnitude
OF the quantity of the work done
there. Consider the ceaseless round
Of committee meetings, hearings,
courts in session, and conventions,
or even one item aloneth num-
Der of bills introduced during q
session Of Congress and it will be
understood that during every mo-
ment Of the day public officials are
at work all over the city, to say
nothing of the social demands
that make serious inroads upon the
time of some legislators. 1t is
difficult to reconcile facts with the
stories told of wasted time and
ample leisure in Washington Off
cial life. Over 20, 900 bills intro
.as,ced at one session of congress,
lifting books that make encyclope-
dias look emanciated, indicate
the gigantic grist Of the legisla-
tive hopper. Joe Mitchell Chap
