Craftsmanship is almost a fairy
story. He insisted on quitting be-
cause his conscience bothered him.
although originally he had left a
$4,000 job with the I. L. o. at
Geneva to come here.
Winant privately insisted he
didn't belong in the craftsmanship
because he was a Republican.
He had repudiated his party dur
ing the campaign and gone on the
stump for the Social Security Act
after Governor Landon attacked
it. But he kept insisting to Roose-
Welt: II won't pretend to be
Democrat when I'm not."' H0' y
