...there were anticipated slumps, together with demands for extended unemployment compensation quickly. But in the eyes of most voters the economic picture is far from dismal. Said House Speaker Sam Rayburn of Texas: "The recession hasn't hit this part of the country yet." Reported Indiana Republican William G. Bray: "Recession talk is not as prevalent as I thought." Even in Florida, hard hit by a citrus freeze and a bad tourist season, Democratic Senator George Smathers was "most surprised" at the lack of interest in the recession. California's Republican Congressman Craig Hosmer said: "The people...
