SANTA MONICA, Cslif., March
18 —1 tell you things never was
looking better. And congress. I want
to go on record as
giving those rascals a
world of credit. They
have reformed and
they look like they
are sorry for what
they have don. for
years? Nowadays Mr.
Roosevelt just makes
out a little list of
things every morning
that he wants them
to do that (kinder
like a h o u sewifes
menu list). And for
the first time in their lives they are
acting like U. S. citizens. And not
like U. S. senators or congressmen.
There has never been anything rad-
ically wrong with our lawmakers.
Only they thought they were think-
ing, now we got a man to do their
thinking for em, and the whole
country to better off.
Youri,
WILL
