once held that post. Later he was
elected to House membership. The
same thing followed with Charles r.
Crisp and Clarence Cannon.
The House has restaurant where
its members may fortify themselves
for battles on the floor. 1t also has
a postoffice and document room.
The House, being such large and
unwieldy body, finds it difficult to get
down to business at the start of a
session and it thus usually results
that thousands of bills drift along UNI

into the legislative hopper at once.
Usually all-night sessions are neces-
sary in such instances, and members
have difficult times to keep awake

good conversation for many years. Suppose we neg

are lower why not talk about them?
Then there are the "good old days." They have
been worn thoroughly threadbare. Why not discuss
the new conveniences have which make life more
worthwhile We wouldn't return to the oxcart in pre-

wanted to?

Red Cross relief, Ernest J. Swift
today told of a thrilling expert
ence when the airplane in which
he was a passenger plunged into
a dense and sitting cloud of
volcanic smoke and gases over
the coast of Salvador.
When the cloud first whirled
upward. Lieut.. Frederick Kimble,
pilot, and Lieut.. Louis Merrick,
co-pilot, did not know precisely
what it was. Realization came,
however. as the atmosphere grew
rapidly warmer and smoke and
gas made breathing painful. With
possible asphyxiation threatening
them, the plane was turned about.
Flying to the westward of the
volcano, the occupants of the
plane could see smoke and fire
shooting from the volcano some
300 feet into the air, with the
dense cloud spreading for so miles
over the sea.
Relief and rehabilitation work
at Managua was progressing
