A Washington veteran troop of senate pages keeps pow wow sessions around a table once used by a senate committee. The room houses steel cabinets filled with correspondence and papers, a bow and arrow from 1869 70 senator Norman R Smith hangs on the wall, and a full wall American flag gifts from the capitol architect. Another flag presented by President Wilson honors the page group that led Liberty bond sales in World War I. Sponsors include Senators Couzens Brock and staff, Chaplain Z B Phillips, Carl Loeffler, Ed Halsey, Howard Foster, and Leslie Biffle.
