The result of all this glut of news is that a lot of just dandy little
new laws aren’t going to be reported anyplace, except in the Con-
gressional Record. It ran over 250 pages for the day. That’s too
bad. So purely as a public service, it is possible to fill in the reader
here on some of these mass-produced measures that otherwise
might not be reported.

you-tha^ government is truly wonderful, once it really rolls.
The gimmick by which all this business and a lot more was done
in one day was that all these bills were placed on the consent
calendar. Bills were passed automatically if nobody objected.
But one objection is enough to stop passage, and if there had'
been no objections, about 200 more bills might have been passed.
Two hundred and ninety-nine of the 415 bills passed by consent
were personal bills—granting citizenship to aliens or settling small
claims... - . 3 - -

question of why all. this small) business couldn’t have been han-

' WASHINGTON— (NEA)—The Republican National Committee
has put out a release that the present session of Congress
would go down in history as ahe “Can Do” Congress. As if to
make good on this ballyhoo, the very next day the Senate approved
41$ bills at one sitting. This practically doubled the accomplish--

loyal. "Any girl who has her R. N.
has proved she’s worth a lot—so
Alan, says."
‘I got mine by the kkin of my
teeth," Roz said. “I never would
have gone on and taken extra
courses. in physical therapy, as
Cyn did.' And rd never have the
patience to wait on old people, or
cranky sick ones, like you. Nora.
No, my forte is being pleasing-to-
the-eye, and most men are more
interested in how a gal looks than
in what she’s like underneath the
war paint."
Nora was glad that Alan was
not that kind. She never could un-
derstand how it had happened that
1 Alan had chosen her, when there
were so many prettier and far
smarter girls in the world. But he
had.
Cynthia didn’t say anything, as
1 there didn’t seem to be anything
1 she could say. But she thought
that Roz could be wrong. Some
men cared more about what a
woman, was like than how she
looked. Norman had not, claimed
to have lost his head because be
considered Cynthia a beauty. He
had given, of all the odd reasons,
the one that he first had seen her
kneelingwith a child's bead in her
lap.
Well, Walt certainly had seen
her upon enough ocoasions admin-
istering to children, presenting just
such an appeal, and it had never
made the slightest impression upon
him. So maybe it would be a good
idea to let Walt see heroin an en-
tirely different setting.
She decided to tell him, next
day when there was a slight lull
in the treatment roof in the clinic,
that it was to be a party Friday

informed Cynthia as she came back
into the living room, one corner of
which served as their dining room.
"Friday night!'! Cynthia almost
spilled the hot coffee. Why did Roz
have to pick. Friday night? Still, on
second thought, as she already had
a date with Walt tor that evening,
it might work out for the best,
too. • .
"Yes. We decided that Friday
would be the best night. That will
give us all day Saturday to clean
up the mess. And Nora says that
Tommy goes to night school
through the week.” Roz took it for
granted that Friday would he sat-
isfactory with Cynthia, so Cyn-
thia let it pass.
"Suppose Mr. Brandt won't
come?" Nora said .That would be
terrible, when the whole party was
really on his acount.
"Oh, he’ll come." Roz appeared
quite confident. "He told me he
hoped I’ dinvite him back to the
house—remember, Cyn? He also
said he wanted to meet you, Nora."
"He did? How nice of him."
Nora was always pleased at any
compliment. There was no reason
for it, since she was a very sweet
girl and quite pretty, but Nora
sometimes suffered from what Roz
bluntly called being unable to blow
her own horn. "I tell you what,"'
Nora came up with an idea, “I'll
bake the cake, but you can let
Mr. Brandt think you. did it.’
"That's generous of you,” Roz
made a small grimace, "but I
doubt if Norman would swallow
that one. He nows I’m not the
type. Cyn, I want you to arrange
the flowers. You’re good at that.
I wish,” her expression was even

most men he hated the ordeal of
getting into dinner clothes.
, Cynthia assured him. that he
could come just as he was.
"In this getup?" He Indicated
the long, enveloping white coat he
had on. "I’m afraid you!d be
ashamed of- me," he said, a twin-
kle in his eye. “I’d never stand up
to your fine-feathered friend, the
one who ran down the little Man-
cini boy . . .I presume he’s invited
to your party-too?" 7
“Yes, he is,” Cynthia said. She
wished Walt would stop referring
to Norman as a man who had com-
mitted manslaughter. If the two
became acquainted st the party
Friday night, Walt might change
his mind about Norman. And Nor-
mao might discover that Walt did
not always wear a scrowl ,or try to
tower above everybody else. t
She did not bother to correct
Walt’s idea that Norman was her
particular friend. But she did say.
"I wouldn’t be ashamed of you-
ever, Dr, Sellars.”
He said, "Thank you for saying
that, Miss Doyle." His eyes were
still twinkling. "I had hoped I
might have the opportunity to dis-
cuss something with yqu—some-
thing very important. Since we
can’t very well have a private
conversation Friday evening, why
can’t we have dinner together to-
night?-That is, of course,” again
his mouth was humorous, "unless
you are dining again with your
dark and handsome friend.’
"His name is Norman Brandt,”
Cynthia said. Walt made Norman
sound wicked and sinister, "rd be
glad to have dinner with you to-
night," she added. She wondered
what it was he wished to discuss
with her. Something of a private
nature. She hoped it would be
sgmething personal, for a change
"That’s fine. Don’t bother to go
home to change. As you Just told
me, you'll do very well as you are.
I thought we’d fine a place near-
by. There’s a little Italian place—
would that suit you?”
Cynthia said it would. She had
to smile to herself, wondering what
Walt would say if he knew that
the "little Italian place" was where
she had had dinner with Norman
Brandt.
