United States Senate Washington Apr. 19, 1939. My Dear Mother: Sen. Norris has the floor on a claim of personal privilege.  He is answering certain charges against him made by an engineer who appears to have failed to get a job at T.D.A. There are many Vermonters here today.  The gallery is full. I am going to introduce a bill today to help poor farmers in Vermont and elsewhere who cannot get aid under the farm-tenant act. I hope it can pass.
