Washing^ton, March 26. — Moviego
ers who saw the fHm, “Mr. Smith
Goes To Washington,” may have got!
the impression that session®, of con- ’
gr^s are apt to be dramatic and ex-'
citing affaii*s. As a matter of fact, i
resentatlves usually put on a .pretty j.
dull .show. Oniy once in a blue'moon |
is there anything of emotion^ or dra-j
matic inteiest in the delbates in either
hou.se.
Senators and house menvhere as a
rule keep their tempers under pietty,
close control w'hen they are out on the,
floor where the-visitors in the galler
ies can .see and hear them, .\fter they
adjoiuTi, what they say to each other
is something else again. ’
There came near to being an ex
hibition of fireworks when the senate
tegaii to discuss the amendments of-
feied by Senator Carl Hatch of New
Mexico to his bill to keep federal of
fice holdei*s out of politics, which be
came a law last year. STr. ITiTteK pro
posed to extend the law' to keep all
state employees whose .salaries aie
paid in w'hole or in part out of federal
funds, from taking part in any way
or conti'ibuting to federal election
campaigns
