I been over to Ed Doolittle’s
house all afternoon studying his
dictionery. Like I told you, on
account of being such a good
speller myself, I ain’t never in-
vested in one of them books
But they was times nowadays
where a taxpayer can’t keep up
with what’s going on in Wash-
ington without a dictionery. If
things don’t git better in the
Congress, it looks like I’m go
ing to have to buy one.
Fer instance, 1 was reading
in the papers where Congress-
men was now gitting $600 a
year more fer postage and it
was "retroactive” to last July.
From the best I can make out
from Ed’s dictionery, this
means a Congressman is gitting
stamps for letters he mailed
last July when he was already
gitting these stamps from his
office fund. In a manner of
speaking, I reckon you’d have
to say our Congressmen was
now mailing “retroactive” let-
ters. They ain’t many folks that
can turn thia trick.
My memory, Mister Editor,
goes back a long way. I can
recollect when the wimmen
folks wore starched petticoats
Delicious re f i r-hmrn • - . - f
cake, pie and coffee were set
esl
where some feller was explain-
ing the red, white and blue in
our flag He claimed the tax-
payers was seeing red when
they discussed taxes, was turn-
ing white they got the bill, and
was paying till they got blue
in the face. He didn’t mention
it, but 1 reckon some of the
taxpayers was also seeing stars.
Yours truly,
Uncle Bud

And not in my memory has
they been such waste and ex-
travagance as we got in Wash-
ington today
Me and Ed was discussing
these matters and he was of the
opinion that the average Con-
gressman ain't got but one de-
finition of waste—a dollar or
two spent in some other Con-
gressman's district. Fer instant,
Ed said he was reading a piece
where Congressmen used |386,-
029 in “petty cash" last year
on them junkers they took to
Paris and such places. He said
these figgers was give out by
the U.S. Treasury Department
and was official.
Incidental, 1 see by the pa
pers where President Johnson's
“economy drive” ain’t setting
too good with some of the hired
help. When he cut the number
of official cars amongst the
various agencies from 491 to
136 one of them fellers in die
State Department was com-
plaining we was the only coun-
try in the world where a dip-
lomat in striped pants had to
ride a bicycle. Personal, Mister
Editor, a little more walking
a litle less talking might
do some of them fellers a heap
of good.
