Messrs. Coolidge and Hoover-he en-
tertained a mild contempt which was
unalloyed by the cloakroom friendship
he felt for the warm-hearted though
weak Ohioan.
Thus, for the self-exiled Progressive
the decade from 1923 to 1888 was a
heartache. Dour. moody, grumpy, his
fingers beating political taps on his
paunchy stomach, he hunched for
ward in his front-row Senate seat as
a sore and sour hero. A writer Of that
day called him the lone wool of the
Senate" The crusaders spirit and
eloquence he had flashed in that
valiant battle against the Versailles
Treaty seemed to have vanished be-
yond recall.
Then along came Franklin D.
Roosevelt with the same lullabies
Teddy had hummed in 1904 and again
in 1912. The name itself awakened
sentimental shivers. It delighted the
Senator to rationalize his abiding
hatred of Herbert Hoover into admira-
ton for a second Roosevelt.
The crowded, cynical years fell
away, and even the hurts he had
suffered seemed to lose their poign-
ancy. He succumbed to the younger
Roosevelts personal charm. especially
as beneath his gruff and grumpy
exterior the Senator is kindly, lovable
human being.

labeled "saturnine and sardonic" by
