I had difficulty in getting in owing to the crowd of excessively Polite humans hovering at the door, These co- workers seemed to be affected with a peculiar exclusive atmosphere, Their nerves were keenly attuned to it and one and all they seemed anxious to preserve its mystery. As. I approached they nudged each other and furtively withdrew their outstretched hands. "No plastic Material here" they, seemed to say. "Don't shake, he may be spy", Such was the reception. The meeting opened, the mysterious atmosphere prevailed and in the ideas presented evasiveness was added. The result was very tiring. Some were noted to he asleep but sleeping at a political meeting does not mean any- thing is missed. On waking a glance around indicates that no other is any more awake and nothing of startling importance has happened. I firmly believe that the atmosphere at political meetings can be changed for the better. I sincerely hope so before the present campaign has travel- led far. Yours truly James G. , Webster.
