Washington
By Hope Ridinss Miller

House Speaker Sam Rayburn, one
OF the few members of Congress
who won't have to wage q cam
paign this summer, hopes to get in
some vacation fishing on his Texas
ranch but he's not too optimistic
about doing it any time soon.
Looks as though I'll be around
Washington until the end of July,
at least" he said the other day as
he eyed the jammed congressional
agenda.
He had just heard that he was
to have no opponent in his race
for reelection this year, and he was
breathing a sigh of relief as he
charted his plans for the summer.
This will be the 18th time that Mr..
Rayburn has run for Office, and
IA times he has fought stiff oppo-
sition. With his own return to Con-
gress already assured, he can focus
his attention on the campaigns of
his congressional friends who will
have the battle of their political
lives this summer. He is confident
that there will still be a Demo-
cratic majority in the House next
session. If there is, he will con-
tinue as House Speaker for at least
two more years, thereby going down
in history as holding that position
longer in succession than any other
House Speaker thus far.
Some congressional old-timers
who have been here almost as long
as Speaker Rayburn Che was elected
first in 1912 were recalling the
other day that during his early
years in Washington Mr.. Rayburn
made his home at the old Cochran
Hotel, which stood at K and Four
teenth street. That was fabu-
lous gathering place for statesmen,
and many men who were to become
world-famous lived there.

The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1946-01-09
SUBSTANTIAL BASIS
So

We have heard it remarked several
times recently that there are more automo-
biles in Key West now than during the
war. While that may or may not be so,
it is easy enough to see that there is still
much traffic in Key West, and it is easy
enough to see also that business generally
is good.
Conditions are altogether different
now in Key West than what they were after
the first World War was over. At one
time it was estimated that as many as 35,-
900 people were in Key West at the height
of World War I, but within five months
after hostilities ceased, the same number
of months since the Japs were knocked out
of World War II, population had dwindled
to great extent and business had gone
pretty fast down the toboggan. Joe Kemp,
now lieutenant of police, while the World
War I was on, was unable to take care of
all the business at his pool room, and six
weeks after hostilities had ceased, he sold
his pool tables at small fraction of what
they had cost and CLOSED up shop"
All over the city there was decided
decline in every kind of business. But
things are different now. While the vol
ume of trade is not as great as it was during
the war, yet business is good, particularly
so at groceries and dry goods stores.
Let us hope business will continue good
and, while we hope, let us strive to do
whatever we can to keep business good in
Key West From viewpoint of naval en-
ployment, the outlook is good, and indus
trially, so far as our industry goes, condi-
tons also are good. Indeed, two weeks
ago. the price received for sponge set
record in Key West.
1t is not amiss to feel confident that,
should business in Key West maintain its
present level, the growth of the city is as
sured on a substantial basis.
