Since writing in a disparaging way of the U.S. Congressional Record as a work of literature, numerous protestants have bobbed up to assert that this sedate Washington daily is filled with more thrills than the "Arabian Nights" and more humor than the comic sections of all the news papers of the country combined. Maybe it is, but as some one rarely reads anything but headlines-and the Congressional Record has none to speak of-he can hardly be expected to know all this. Taken as a whole debates in Congress reminds him of an incident at a meeting which he once attended.
