Washington Letter
BY HERBERT C. PLUMSfER

WASHINGTON. May 3l+-A replica Of an old mar
thine map Of the waters around Rhode Island hangs
from the wall directly back Of Senator Jesse Fl. Met
calls desk in the senate office building.
IN the right hand corner of the map Is the picture
of a trim little yacht heading straight for Block
Island. The prov is cutting a neat path in the sea-a
thin spray is being kicked up as the craft speeds mer-
'rily on.
The Felicia is heading back home after a delight
full and lazy cruise into less frequented waters.
Down on the Potomac the Felicia rides easily at its
Imoorings. Senator Metcalf recently ordered his yacht
brought to Washington that he and Mrs. Metcalf
might take up their residence aboard.
It Is an annual event. About this time every year
the two quit their apartment and move to the Felicia.
For the best part OF the summer months they make
their home on the comfortable and ~splendidly equip
ped yacht. Their friends are entertain here. Five
or six people in addition to members Of the crew are
easily cared for.
THEIR HOUS BOAT
On hot nights the Felicia lifts anchor and slips
down the Potomac to q spot far removed from the
city. Here. safe from the heat and mosquitoes, the
Metcalfs spend the night. returning in the morning
in time for the senator to get back to his duties on
capitol hill.
For more than 80 years Senator Metcalf has turned

ure on a steam yacht. The government. however.
during the war, needed q craft OF this type and the
senator surrendered it at a price named by the United
states.
The Felicia IS 10 feet long and draws from five to
six feet of water. II is capable Of making II knots
an hour. Two 225- horsepower engines drive the trim
little yacht.
Speed holds no fascination for Senator Metcalf.
He regards the Felicia simply as q pleasure craft He
never has faced against another boat and has no IN
I~tentions Of doing so. There is a silver cup aboard.
but II was presented the senator in appreciation Of
his boat towing a disabled steam yacht to a place Of

much skill as any member Of the crew. In fogs and

He believes in taking no chances II weather
