THE PRESS GALLERY

The press gallery is not a consti-
tutional part of the machinery of gov
ernment az Washington, but it is none
the less an important part. y century
ago Edmund Burke. in the house of
commons. said that there were three
estates in parliament-nobles clergy
and commons-but in the reporters
gallery yonder there sat n fourth estate
more important far than they all.
With the advancing years and the in
creasing power of the press, the dig
nifty of the fourth estate, thus chris
tened. has Waxed rather than waned.
In Washington the term press gal
lery means two distinct things. 1t
may mean the gallery in either of the
chambers o. the two houses of Con-
gress. OF it may mean the organ
ization of newspaper correspondents,
the individual members of which have
access to those galleries.
In each house the gallery is directly
over the chair of the presiding officer
and is eqipped with desks for the use
of correspondents taking notes. With
the decline of the custom of reporting
actual debates for the newspapers the
desks are not much used, and indeed
the galleries are actually filled only
when something very important or
very interesting Is going on.
But in the lobbies back of the gal
leries there is always great activity.
Here are huge tables with blotting
pads and 5ountiful supplies of ink
pens and paper. In another room are
typewriters, and in still another bat
teries of telegraph instruments which
take the news of the national legis-
lature TO the people of the country.
The duly accredited representatives
of newspapers who are telegraphic
correspondent are admitted to the
salery. The correspondents them
selves elect q standing committee,
which is the governing body of the
gallery, acting in conjunction with the
chairman of the Senate committee on
rules and the Speaker of the House
on all questions affecting the per-
sonnel the standing committee is su-
preme. No man may be a member of
the gallery, even If hH be a bona fide
correspondent, who holds any Office of
profit under the United States govern
ment or who represents any bill or
legislative measure in Congress or be-
fore any committee OF either house
This rule Is strictly enforced, and more
than one bright youn- man who has
