I recognize that as we perform our functions and pursue our duties we have a handicap that probably other Congresses did not have in like proportion. One is the wealth of detail and routine with which we are saddled today: Rendering assistance in oldage assistance cases. trying to direct young men in the country and constitutents with reference to enlistments and commissions. we must pursue priorities in the matter of goods for industries. for hospitals. for schools. for dwelling houses. We are expected to assist our people in securing insofar as possible defense plants and industries. we must check up on casualty lists. we must prosecute veterans cases. we must render assistance in the application for visas through the State Department. help constituents procure loans from the R. F. C.. help people in businessretail. wholesale. and manufacturing businesson modifications of the frequent regulations which impose hardship and injustice.
