Washington Congressmen vary. By congressmen, I mean senator** and representatives, both. Publicity is very valuable to a congressman. He like** it, if ne's on to his job. Most of them are! at least to the extent of knowing that it pays a politician to figure. good and plenty, in print. One-type enjoys praise but resents adverse criticism. The other type welcomes anything it can get. If it gets praise, good. If no|(, it extends the glad hand to vilification, ridi cule, anything, ns far better than nothing at a]l- • • • Senator Guy D. Hdff, of West Vir ginia fans iu classification No, 1. Goff has brains. He makes a dandy speech, but he's .sensitive and evi dently a thoroughly serious-minded chap. In contrast with this mental slant. Physically he's a rolty-poly guy, who makes you laugh when you look at him—not a disagreeable laugh, a good natural one. Well, Goff made a speech one day, which ] had occasion to refer to in one of these letters I write, and, so he.p me John Rogers, it was a com plimentary reference, but I did re mark that Goff looked like a kewpie, as he got his oratory off his chest. Believe it or not, in less than no time I d had half a representa tions made to me. by Guy D. Goff's friends, that that was a darned mean tiling I'd said. Finally an emissary called formally to find out why I hated the senator so. Migosh! I don’t. Making due al lowance for the fact tkut he’s a "reg ular of regulars,” which some people consider quite all right and others coraider absolutely a’l wrong. I think he's one of our lending sena tors, in character and ability. But «e ooks like a kewpie. I by that. Waving. Wa can recall the battle cry, Enunciated by the brave.
