Barkley asks, "What''s happened to those fellows?" Rayburn responds, "The boys are getting back from home after having had their ears to the ground."

Although the Congress officially remained in session during the spring of 1942, it used a brief informal recess to allow members to return home. MEDIUM:1 drawing. CREATED/PUBLISHED:1942 April 12.
