Isn't it stupid to compare the cost
Of living on a farm in 1909 with the
cost of living in Washington today
with the people scraping every penny
TO raise enough to pay the poor"
farmer the highest prices ever
known?
Congressman Rainey might have
included in his paean Of praise for
the farmer who spends his time on
the farm the well known Illinois Con-
gresham who, having been elected
to Congress, drew his Congress
sional salary, clerk hire and all. and
then spent ALL HIS TINE ON THE
FARM. He never came to Congress
except one day to qualify on the pay
roll.
Congressman Blanton of Texas,
speaking on a subject with which he
is entirely at sea, made the follow
ing remarkable statement about
Government employees here:
I will state to you gentlemen that
these clerks are housed In the most
comfortable quarters imaginable:
they are surrounded by every kind
Of luxury found in department
buildings; you wiz md many Of
them wearing tie best tailor
made clothes In Washington. and
many of them drive their own au-
tomobiles every day on the streets
Of this city. You will find many
OF them in the most popular
theaters In the city.
I would like to explain that
Congressman Blanton is the man
who campaigned throughout Texas
on a platform Of which one
plank was a promise to make
Congress work harder and to con-
vene at 9 o'clock each day.
1t took CONGRESSMAN WILL
WOOD of Indiana only two minutes
to puncture Congressman Blanton-
'Mr. Blanton is being fairly well
paid FOR HIS SERVICES at $500
a year." said Mr.. Wood. an addi-
ton to that, he is receiving, as / am
informed, more than 500 mileage
per session; ALSO $1,000 A YEAR
FOR A SON who is a clerk in his
office. He also has a son on the
pages bench at $83 a month"
Congressman Blanton jumped in
to enter a protest about the $1,000
son. He said his son didn't get all
of It.
However, the dwellers in glass
houses, you know, should not throw
stones.
