Gracie Allen Reporting

HOLLYWOOD – Did you read the account of that argument in the Senate, about the state in which people lived the longest?
Sen. Chandler of Kentucky admitted that people lived as long in California as they did in his state, but no longer. Sen. Pepper said they lived longer in Florida than anywhere else; and Sen. Tobey practically declared that when anybody died in New Hampshire it drove the war off the front page.
Of course, as a Californian, I believe people live longer here than in any other place – if they can find a place to live. My husband, George, has narrowed it down even more than that. He says that people live longer in our house than in any other place – especially my relatives.
That’s a husband for you. Your mother comes for a little ten-year visit and he complains.
