Since this is certain to be a drawn-out and perhaps fruitless affair, Illinois Senator Paul Douglas last week pointedly praised a short cut to fairer fares.

"I've never been one who measures the quality of a job by the length of time applied thereto," he says. With his wife Ruth, whom he met at the University of Michigan, he is an avid indoor gardener, raising such exotic plants as orchids and sea grapes. Summer weekends they spend at their cabin on Byram Lake, 45 miles from home, where Townsend water-skis, boats...
