But the Hollywood Reporter flippantiy said:
“Yodel for the widow, FDR. Tune the ¢rumng and
tambourine. Move over, Dinah and Steverine. Pass
the Atropine, Ernestine. Eleanor's gonna make a acene.
Plugging oleomargarine. Oleceleanor Margarine!”
Most comment assumed that she had never done
the like before, but 2 new generation has arisen
since she used the State Department to gather a
big fee for plugging the coffee trade for South
American nations.
The Chicago Tribune, under no compulsions,
sald: “We are hardly surprised that she would take
the fee. Since Jimmy was cashing in on the White
House connection as an insurance salesman, Eliott
was playing John Hartford for a $200,000 sucker and
their father was picking up die proofs of new stamps
from his Postmaster General for his $250,000 collec-
tion, the family has always looked to itself.”
_ The AP reported from Santa Fe, N. M., that the
State House of Representatives “heatedly rejected a
message from Mrs. Roosevelt and Herbert Lehman"
about right to work.
Rep. Albert Matlock said, “I resent such a read-
ing (of the message)” and added, “I move that it
be burped.”_. __—_»
