Dear editar:
I never have worried about
the privileges other people
have so long as mine are hold-
ing up, but when a privilege
comes along that doesn’t cost
anything and other people are
entitled to, I’m in favor of
newspaper reporters, and they i wishes were sung for Mrs.

sounds a whole lot different and
worse in the light of sober
after-thought, the bigshot can
correct himself by saying he
was misquoted.
Some people criticize them
for this, saying they’re trying
to crawfish out, but I don’t
hold to that at all. What I’d
like to see is a more universal
use of this idea.
Take a man who’s stood an
in-law’s visit about as long as
he can and makes a remark to
his wife along this line, and
peace and harmony are de-
stroyed. The next day, especi-
ally if it had the desired result
and the in-law took off for
home, he could write him say-
ing he was misquoted, that his
statement had been taken out
due. If I could get around the
situation by saying I’d been
misquoted on the due date,
when I was quoted as saying
July 1, I meant to say Id pay it
back October 1, and the bank
would correct the error, I’d feel
like I was getting treatment
equal to a Congressman and
j his boners. .
The man who has never put
his foot in his mouth hasn’t
. shown up around here yet, and
this misquoting angle is the
handiest answer I’ve ever seen
to the problem.
Any time you don’t agree
with anything I write in The
the privilege Congressmen and
other Washington officials
have of being misquoted.
You take a bigshot Washing-
ton official, he can rear back
and make a statement to the
