who they are. The average citizen,
busy with his daily affairs. probably.
could not name more than three or
four men in Congress wi9o would fall
into this class Of genuine statesmen,
Most people probably wil1.s never
know who they are. These statesmen
realize that fact, but find their reward
in the knowledge that they are serv-
ing faithfully their country and are
true to that integrity, Intellectual hon.
eSty, and fine character which mark
the true statesman and unseIfsh lead
err. They understand that other inteili-
gent people of the same mind and
purpose appreciate and applaud what
they are doing. and in these facts they
find some satisfaction.
The best newspapers OF the cour.
try, and the best editors of these pa.
pers, play an important part in bring
ing to the attention of the public the
work of these statesmen, A large pro.
portion of our newspapers and mega
zines perform no such useful service
But no one can know these men thor
oughly unless he has the time to read
faithfully the Congressional Record
and the reports of the various COM
mittees in which some of these men
perform their best service. If the gem
eral public would read the Congress
SiondI Record regularly and with in
telligent understanding. they would
be better able to appraise Congress
men. The public would learn who
these statesmen are. and how iHnpor.

doing yeoman service in exercising

have no comprehension of what true
craftsmanship means.
1t is a discouraging and disturbing
thing to follow day by day the
Vaccinations and Nominations Of
these demogogic politicians who have
no appreciation of the value OF fact,
truth. integrity. and unselfish service.
It makes one wonder whether and
how the genuine statesmen can make
a success of our democratic govern
ment when they must drag along as a
dead weight and as an ever-present
danger to good government q group of
men who outnumber them and whose
intellectual limitations and emotional
instability constitute an ever-present
danger and liability.
II is my personal opinion that; not
for many years, have our statesmen in
