I was much impressed with the article of an outstanding writer in a recent magazine as he closed by quoting the words of a busi ness man: “We know as much about to morrow as Washington does—and maybe more. Look—we used1 to write letters to our congressmen. Now they write letters to us. Get me?” This is the first real hopeful sign in many a moon. And it is true. I get at least one letter from Washington every week, and it is from a congressman, too. Now, I used to go to Washington quite frequently. At such times I always tried to spend at least a day or two studying Congress. And I was amused to see how many congressmen, both in the senate and house, had constitu ents with them, and how they felt impelled to treat them cour teously. I remember one story of Uncle Joe Cannon who seemed always to have some man from I jack home with him. One day he took one of these friends to dinner, and they enjoyed together a big dinner of roasting ears. Ere the meal was finished Uncle Joe íad ten or twelve cobs lying by us plate. His friend asked, “Do you board regularly at this ho tel?” Uncle Joe replied that he did, and had boarded there for several years, and then asked “Why?” The friend answered, “I was just thinking. Wouldn’t it be cheaper to board at a livery stable?” But a change came, with the war times. People had to stay at home and work. Laborers were scarce. It was no time to go to Washington to see his congress man. So, he was urged to write lim. He did, and every letter to a wise congressman was answered. But, , -somehow people have stopped writing to their congress man. I do not know why. Neither does he; and that is just what is jothering him. He does not know what folks back home are think ing; but knowing the uncertainty, and the fog that prevails in Washington thinking and legisla- ion, he is afraid of what the folks at home in their silence are think ing; and he both writes to them, and goes back to see them. There are many anxious “Congress sit ters” today who are more anx- ius than the baby-sitter, when it is hours past the time for the folks to come home. Are you doing some thinking, constructive thinking, and are you ready to tell that congress man what he should be told, and told most emphatically? When already our government is pay- ing out six dollars for every five dollars it is taking in, it is time every voter told his congressman something very emphatically. When our government- is freely sending billions to Europe to try to buy peace over there and try ing to nose into all their problems, here at home, the voter should think and talk. When the de fense department is bitterly at war among its own three divi sions. and no settlement seems even near, it is time for the con gressman to hear a message from the voters. When the men most responsible merely joke .and laugh, and travel on junkets and ■guess at a three hundred billion income in the near future, with out any (basis for such, it is time for the voters to call a halt. The “ins” are .playing the game of Louis of France: “After us the deluge.” The “outs” are vainly seeking some, catching issue as a craft to sail back in. But they easily find a way to increase their own salaries; and the president who belabored the last congress eagerly and avidly signed the bill it passed which would provide him with $50,000 additional, ex empt from all taxes. Yes, of course, you are thinking as the value of that dollar gets smaller and smaller. But are you going to make those spendthrifts do some right thinking and act ing? It is almost amusing, and would quite so, all the “musts” and “needs” which can be thought up. “Paying as we go” has been forgotten. And I wonder what the communists across the water, as well as at home, thinks of the thinkless ones of both parties, who so readily follow a man who could not run a haberdashery and make it pay, but now is trying to run the world? “O Tempore! O mores! The people see it.” But have they simply quit thinking? And do they rightly answer that congressman’s letter? And if so, is it merely with pen and pencil. It should be with votes. O. A. Bergeson has returned from Salt Lake City where he a t tended a meeting of the National Reclamation association. He plans to leave Sunday for Bozeman to attend the annual convention of the Montana Reclamation group.
