1 Farley Article•

ln the PIIIICI of a pOpl!la&' nl11&8·

1 zlne ' '!0 have recently wllnessed the poor spectacle of a man 1·e·

, aarded by many, It not great, at ; least as clever, lutclll&~nt and , &enlal, who lieemlngly has let pel"

S0n11l animosity get the betlcr oC his judgment.

I H Ia diJIIcull to conceive of the purpose which prompted Mr.

' J amea F'arley to furnish the mate· r ials for his cur1·cnt al'tlclea to an employe of Colonel McCormick­the arch Roosevelt-hater of all time- for publication.

Mr. Farley'a purpose Ia aup­posedly not economic, a1 he II known to draw a aeneroua aaluy, lila purpose cannot be political, for the man he would embarras11 Is dead. In trying to dishonor a memory, Mr. Far ley Ia late wltb hla comments. Just about evet'Y· thin& evil and slanderous bas al!·eady been aaJd of Franklin D. Roosevelt and his family, By hl1 artlclea Mr. Farley has not lntensl· lied the feellna o! one Roosevcll· hater; nor wUI he q,rn away one peraon who loves and rc, t•ecta the memory of our late President.

Whatever M1·. Farley's purvose, p&·obably his chief accomplishment hu been to hurl' the heart or a woman al!·eady bereaved by the loaa of a loved one.
