IT costs money to lie a congressman. Of course, the job
* pays pretty well, too. By the time the legislator has paid
the overhead, his $10,000 a vear, while still not hay, has
shrunk considerably.
There’s the matter of housing, for one thing. Even
when he finds a place to live in Washington he has to pay
lor it. And he has to keep a residence in his home city
for return visits and for the dark day when the fickle
electorate may vote him out of a job.
He has to dress up in store bought clothes, and do a
good bit of entertaining. Frequently he needs more secre-
tarial help than his clerical allowance will buy. And then
there are telephone and telegraph charges and many other
incidentals of that sort.

But probably the biggest item on the congressman’s
budget is the business of trying to get re-elected. This re-
quires frequent shuttling between Washington and home,
besides the many ordinary campaign expenses. It’s par-
ticularly tough on members of the house, who must go
through this every two years as long as they seek to hold
office. I 8T1IXWATER. May 29 — < Spe-

We think that our senators and representatives de-
serve more money, eventually, if not now. We need impor-
tant men for the important job that congress has to do.
We may not get them if they must bear a financial loss to
perform this service. And we certainly shan’t get a repre-
sentative group if congress attracts only those with ample
outside incomes.
But we can’t say we like this “tax-free’’ feature of the
new house appropriation. We haven’t seen the language of
the bill and, not being a Philadelphia lawyer, we might not
understand it if we had. Yet we’ve heard of no representa-
tive arising to deny that the appropriation is tax-free

fpHE law on expense accounts says that reimbursements
from employers (in the representatives’ case, the United
States government) must be entered as part of income, ha-
ter the actual expenses paid through these reimbursements
may be deducted in arriving at what all readers of Form
1040 will fondly remember as "adjusted gross income.”
We don’t know how the representatives intend to bypass
this law by making their appropriation tax-free from the
beginning. We don’t care particularly. We want to see our
lawmakers get a fair shake. But we don’t think they should
vo . themselves special privileges when the rest of us are
paying taxes but plenty, and not squawking too hard about

^AN FRANCISCO, Calif.—To say that California Democratic leaders
are delighted with the way things are working out in Washington
puts it mildly. •
President Tiuman's scheduled visit to San Francisco to close the
United Nations Conference gives the whole West
a chance for better acquaintance. Truman made a
vice presidential campaign speech here last year,
but it attracted little attention and so did he. But
as President, with both the war and the peace
efforts centered on the Pacific and with three good
westerners just named to the cabinet, the West is
getting a political Uft such as it has not had in
years.
Already requests are being made to have Presi-
dent Truman put in a few political appearances
on the side.
Older heads in the Democratic organization are
counseling against too much of a purely political
They realise that Truman is still in his political

party celebration.
honeymoon and too much partisan whoopee might be nr bad thing.
l*UT there seems to be no inclination to feel thut the future of the
Democratic Party died with Roosevelt. In fact, just the opposite
While Roosevelt kept a number of diverse West Coast elements
inside the Democratic Party, there was always a lot of factional
Jealousy. And it wns not .at alt uncommon to have various individ-
uals going around the state party leaders to take issues direct to the
White House.
All this era of short circuiting state political machines by direct
pipelines to 1000 Pennsylvania Avenue, now seems to be ended. The
amateurs, the crackpots, the labor politicians now appear to be in the
position of having to work through the party machine or pass out ot
existence.
RATIONALLY, the California Democrats gained five congressional
seats in 1944 to give them a representation of 17, to six Repub-
licans.
Washington representation Is, of course, Important, but what the
California Democrats would particularly like to see is recognition of
.their own machine here in the West. There are over 150 federal agen-
cies with state or regional headquarters here in San Francisco. Key
personnel in many of these agencies don't even know each other.
If western Democrats could get a deputy Judge Vinson estab-
lished here to serve as what State Attorney General Bob Kinney calls
*'a great oilcloth shoulder'' on which they could all cry whenever
problems of particular interest to the West come up, it would make a
great many people happy.

Memo to highschool and
lege class prophecy editors: The
highschool class of Cadiz. Ohio,
went out on a limb and predicted
that he-man movie hero Clark
Gable would be earning his living
as a truck driver.
That's only one of the incon-
gruities movie celebrities found as
they turned back the pages of j
their yearbooks for a look at the
predictions their emssmates made
at the time of their graduation.
George Brent’s fellow students
predicted freely that the wild
Irishman would be the least likely
to marry. George wishes they could
take a look at his alimony receipts.
The boys and girls who charted
gravel-voiced Andy Devine’s career
listed him as a future ballet
dancer. The dance floor has yet
to be built which would support
the' capering Devine bulk.
The editor of the King Edward's
highschool yearbook in Vancouver,
B. C., listed Yvonne DeCarlo as an
exemplary stenographer. The young
lady now U playing her second
starring role In Universal's "Fron-
iter Gal." following her triumph in
"Salome. Where She Danced."
If highschool editors had been
right. Myma Loy woud be a cow-
girl in Montana and Ann Sheridan
would be teaching school. Bing
Crosby was slated to become a
street cleaner.
Schoolmates of Charles Edward
Pratt in England nominated him
for a mortician's career. As Boris
Karloff, he's at least kept the mor-
ticians busy.
Humphrey Bogart disappointed
his classmates when he didn't open
a lingerie shop. Dashing Rosalind
Russell was nominated for pro-
prietor of a swank Fifth avenue
hat shop. Fred Ast&ire was to
have become the future mayor of
his city. Omaha. Neb. And Bob
Hope’s fellows had him playbig
Hamlet.
Highschool boys and girls In
Portland, Me. were certain Rudy
Vallee would be a professional
pugilist, which may explain his
addiction to night club battles.
Skeptical schoolmates of song-
stress Deanna Durbin hung on her
the tag, "least likely to succeed."
