Most observers a year ago would never have imagined that legisla- tion of the scope and the depth of the Voting Rights Act would have ever been considered, let alone signed into law in less than six months after its introduction. But politics goes on as usual, which perhaps accounts for the unexciting atmosphere in a city where such exciting things are occurring. Washington is still a city where, in the words of an anonymous re- porter, a newsman can stay well- fed and moderately drunk six nights of the week. Social Events Everybody holds receptions, ban- quets, cocktail parties, dinners, and-in the case of a Republican fund-raising gala-a bus convoy Across Campus to former President Dwight D. Eisenhower's Gettysburg, Pa., farm. And, for the press at least, it's all free, from lemonade at the White House to cocktails and din- ner in the plush ninth floor of the State Department at a reception for (of all things) the Governors' Committee on the Status of Wom- en . Working as a newsman is not always easy, though, precisely be- cause politics does go on as usual. Dirksen As the Senate neared a vote on Sen. Everett Dirksen's (R-Ill) c o n t r o v e r s i a 1 apportionment amendment-mindful of Dirksen's charges that the President had broken his promise to remain neu- tral in the fight because Vice- President Humphrey was actively lobbying against him-a Hum- phrey aide told one newsman that his boss "really isn't doing any- thing." "Actually, he's just going around checking off names on a list of senators," the aide continued. "Dirksen's charges against Hubert are a case of 'how to succeed in politics without really trying'." Humphrey's aide was, of course, eager to play down his boss' in- volvement-about as eager as Humphrey was to defeat Dirksen. Only Funny Man Dirksen himself, however, says Art Buchwald, the New York Herald Tribune's political satirist, has emerged as almost the only funny man in a city otherwise dominated by Lyndon Johnson. Certainly, Dirksen has fantastic popularity among newsmen, who jam his weekly seance's in the Senate press gallery with the eager air of children waiting for a bed- time story. He rarely disappoints them. Asked once what upcoming bills he was concerned about, Dirksen assumed an air of mock horror, and croaked, "There's that bill to create a federal boxing czar." Boxing Commissioner His picturesque face contorted by the very thought of a federal boxing commissioner, Dirksen peered through his glasses at Mae Craig, the Portland (Maine) Press- Herald reported notorious for her crotchety questions on Meet the Press, and boomed out, "I don't like that word 'boxing czar'-do you, Mae?" As Miss Craig assured Dirksen she didn't either, such luminaries as Roger Mudd of CBS, Sander Vanocur of NBC, E. W. Kenworthy of the New York Times and Ed- ward Folliard of The Washington Post all looked on entranced. Dirksen, of course, combines such frolic with political purpose, but he is an exception. Taste pre- vents a newsman from revealing which prominent Michigan con- gressman said soberly he'd rather not answer an off-the-record query on whether or not the CIA was involved in changing politi- cal events as well as reporting them. The Interns And, of course, there are, in addition to the adults, the vast numbers of summer interns from colleges and universities all over the country. While most of them come away impressed with their elders, their elders have not always been so impressed with them. "They don't want to work, they want to have fun," growled one congressman. "And when they feel like working, they want to write my speeches instead of typ- ing them." Best Crank Letter? Some of the Capitol Hill in- terns, conducting a contest for the best crank letter, instead found most humorous the letters of semiliterate or indigent con- stituents. And, although Sen. Robert F. Kennedy (D-NY) made an elo- quent speech to a large group of summer workers on the importance of participating in government,' what seemed most important to most of the interns was seeing a Kennedy before they returned home. But no one person or group- save perhaps Lyndon Johnson--is ever able to dominate the mood of Washington for very long. Per- haps one of its more colorful resi- dents summed it up best.
