HENSLEYS SON FIGHTS
RETURN TO CONGRESS
Eight Year-0ld Canvasses Neighbors
to Get Votes Against
His Dad.

Talking about the bond of blood and
interest between father and son and son
and father-how does this strike you? A
son Of a father in Congress out working
to defeat his fathers reelection! That
son on the government payroll his father
helps to frame as page of the House OF
Representatives.! And going around open
ly hoping out loud that his father will
be beaten in the coming contest!
That is the way young Robert Hensley,
the eight-year-old son of Representative
Hensley of Missouri. is campaigning
against his dad. To get full picture
of this treacherous political work on the
part Of the junior Hensley you must
know he is eight years old. slender,
bright of face and with a great shock of
dark hair which sweeps almost into his
flashing eyes.
NO. indeed, / don't want daddy to
come back to Congress" is his attitude.
II don't want to live any more in Wash
ington. l want to be back in the country.
My uncle has farm in Missouri and
all the cows and horses he wants.
want to go back there. l don't like the
streets here. And | don't want daddy
to have TO be here.
II didn't want to come here anyhow.
Every time see diyDooy from our ois-
trict J ask him not to vote for daddy
next time"
All of which is verified by Represent
ative Hensley himself.
What do you think of that little
rooster" he said with pride. He
actually canvassed our neighbors in an
effort to get them to vote gainst me-"
If young. Hensley, jr., is as good a
campaigner as he is page then Hens
ley, sr, has about as much chance as
a man waving a German flag in London.
He is page by the appointment Of Rep
resentative Russell of Missouri. and will
not be on duty for many days longer.
His mother was anxious to have him
serve a few days as page while Hens
ley, sr lasted as a representative and
before the swift fire of his son might
GUST him from public life.

Opponents of a government war risks
project contend that there will be fight
on the floor of the House against any
such plan, because it would mean the
private companies would assume the
good risks and the government the bad
