sincere message which Mr.. Needham
is sending to the country in this drama.
We have had a great many Washing

tics
Senator Beveridge, who read the play
some months ago. wrote to Mr. Need
ham: The best thing of the kind 1
ever read. President Roosevelt told me
that he thinks so, too. / believe it will
be a great go and will make money
and reputation for you
Senator LaFollette wrote as follows:
You have in the political theme OF
your play made a graphic. dramatic
cosmos of the existing political con-
ditions and the play will, think. make
a strong appeal to audiences in various
parts Of the country. It combines sc
many elements within the personal ex-
perience of people in both the large
cities and the smaller districts. 1t is
a play with a message for those who
choose to hear it, but the strongly dra-
matte story would hold those who had
no interest in politics"
