Texans In Washington Pointers On Writing Congressmen
Texas farmers show higher marketings in the first nine months of 1962 with state totals at 1 5 2 278 000 versus 1 444 812 000 in 1961. National farm marketings reach 24.1 billion for January to September 1962, up from 23.5 billion in 1961. Pointers from Rep. Bob Poage advise constituents to write, type, clearly address letters, provide background, suggest solutions, and explain legislative positions. Gaylord Armstrong from Temple balances mail delivery and GWU classes while Rep. Poage sponsors him for a postal job. Rep. Joe Wilmore cites a Congressional Quarterly error on 10 of 12 votes, prompting corrections after Kilgore and other Texas members were mislisted due to updated tapes following Rep. Ikard's resignation.
