EDITORS COMMENTS
Congressman Robert L. Mouton: Mastering the Art of Hog Calling on Washington Capitol Steps, 1937". In this photograph taken in 1937 by Harris & Ewing, we witness a truly unique moment in American political history. Congressman Robert L. Mouton, a U. S. Democratic Representative from Louisiana, can be seen practicing his hog calling skills on the iconic steps of the Washington Capitol. Preparations were underway for an epic contest between Rep. Mouton and Rep. Otha D. Wearin of Iowa, both renowned for their ability to summon hogs with astonishing precision through vocal prowess alone. The image captures Congressman Mouton's determination as he stands outside amidst the grandeur of the capitol building, showcasing his expertise in this unusual competition that united politicians across party lines. With head held high and wearing a confident expression on his face, Mouton embodies both humor and dedication as he readies himself for what promises to be an entertaining showdown. This vintage portrait not only highlights the lighter side of politics but also sheds light on the camaraderie shared among members of Congress during this era. It serves as a reminder that even those entrusted with governing our nation have moments where they embrace lightheartedness and engage in friendly rivalry. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded that behind every politician lies a multifaceted individual capable of surprising us all – whether it be through legislation or unexpected talents like hog calling.
