Appointments
The number of young men in
terested in appointments to either
West Point Military Academy or
the Annapolis Naval Academy
has decreased during the last sew
eral years. This may be because
the entrance requirements are so
rigid that young men find it very
difficult to meet the mental and
physical requirements. Several
vacancies will occur for appoint
ments for entrance July 1, l949
and any young men in the District
interested may. write me and be
furnished with complete details
concerning the Academies res
quirements, thereby having prac-
tically full year to prepare. Ev-
cry young man in the District
within the age limits has an equal
opportunity, as it has been my pol
icy to hold competitive examina-
tons conducted by the Civil Ser
vice Commission, and the boys
making the highest grades in these
examinations, able to meet the
physical requirements, receive the
nominations. The training given
at either Academy is of college
standard and the opportunity for
receiving an education is well
worth working for. Not only that,
but a career of honorable service
awaits those who graduate. Any
young man interested should write
me at 1920, House Office Building,
Washington, DC.

for the adjournment of this ses-
sion of Congress. The date of ad-
journment, however, will depend
upon the completion of the regu-
lar appropriation bills. Several
! of these are yet to be acted upon
by the House so that if they are to
be finally enacted by June Is, it
is likely that Congress will have
to hold some night sessions. There
is also some indication that in.
stead of adjourning sine die, the
leaders will agree upon a recess
similar to that followed at the
close of the first session of this
Congress.
