A Day in the Life of a Congressman, Sam Stratton

3:10 P.M.—Back in his office, a phone call from White House invites Stratton to Congressional Coffee Hour President Kennedy has scheduled. "President Kennedy has gone all out to establish a close working relationship with members of Congress, regardless of political party. Naturally, we appreciate the opportunity of having the White House so accessible to us and, of course, when it comes to voting, the President's legislative proposals haven't suffered from these courtesies."
