Clem Webster, that was in tune with the Great Society most of the time, said he would vote with the majority agin the bill but he wanted to git one item in the records. He reported them pens President Johnson was using was now being bought wholesale and the price had dropped from sl.ll per pen to 17 cents. Clem claimed this was a big savings and was in keeping with turning out the White House lights and other Great Society economy moves. Farthermore, allowed Clem, the pen people had been having it pritty hard and this pocket of poverty has now been washed away. Everbody was strong in favor of Columbus but, considering all the I dangers, they was agin giving him a Day. And so, Mister Editor, if you git a letter from this feller Adamo I would tell him, Columbus si, holiday no. Josh Clodhopper announced he was feeling mighty encouraged over our war again poverty and was pleased to hear the pen folks had been took care of in such fine style. He reported he had saw where the hotel folks was also gitting removed from the poverty list. Fer instant, he told the fellers, he was reading where the Office of Economic Opportunity had rented a hotel in St. Petersburg, Florida fer 18 months fer $225,000 at the same time they was a ad in the papers offering the hotel fer sale at $205,000. But all the fellers was agreed the anti-poverty program was gitting a mighty fine press. Ed said he had saw where the program was paying $32,000 a month fer 16 press agents and $2,000 a month to a firm in New York to advise the press agents where to press. Personal, I was noting where a Russian official told his folks Americans complaining agin these matters was put in jail. We
