Damn Richest Man in House
~ biggest surprise among the

nars n the s8th district. Mr.. Dunn
!. r,obabfy the richest man in the
a.ass, b itself enough TO have OBJ

vas attacked on this score in the last

weE hardly, but decided this year it

letidshtally, Smell, another member
ai this group, will be chairman of the
si.apottant Rules Committee next

s. Two Chairmanships Lost
q Gould is chairman of the Library
81 Committee, so that two chairmanships
n Ea be lost by New York through his
