Of This and That

At last legislation in Juneau
Has ended for this year (unless,
of course, a special session should
be called) . . . Now we can all
sleep more easily and not be
wondering what additional scatter
brained ideas will be introduced.
•O-OO
It is possible, ttao, that Henry
Hedberg, labor lobbyist, will not
relax too much as he seems rather
angry because he did not get just
what he ordered. The concern he
expressed for the small business
man comes a bit late, in our esti
mation. We doiibt that he really
cares what happens to any busi
ness rrtan at any time, and we
can feel no sympathy for him . . .
•o-oo
Wonder how soon the naughty
people in jail wull be given their
vacations? Perhaps some of them
will be permitted to go home in
time to hunt for Easter eggs . . .
How jolly for everyone!
