Last Monday, Senator Robert Dole of Kansas, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, began to play matchmaker. He invited the three other top congressional tax writers-Rostenkowski, Senate Finance Committee Ranking Democrat Russell Long of Louisiana and House Ways and Means Committee Ranking Republican Barber Conable of New York-to an intimate luncheon in an ornate hideaway office next to the Senate chamber long favored for bourbon and branch-water sessions.
