Of the visit with numerous interviews

Of Sept 20, 1919.
The reporter found that Hanson
talked well and was always just as
ready 10 talk as Roosevelt used 20 be
on any subject under the sun. Ee
also discovered that his actions ware
even more eloquent than his words.

tongue. One Of his secretaries came
n TO report the results of hours of
dsivtng among authorities on social
science and immigration.
Hanson spent some time expount-
ing plea for the raising of the pay
Of school teachers. He had an ap-
parently practical and infinitely
worked out scheme for handling the

tent merely to have theories. II he

A man who has known Hanson in
