Mrs. Roosevelt
Defines A Liberal

NEW YORK-On being quiz
zed as to what her definition of
a liberal is, Mrs. Eleanor Roose-
Welt admits that it is difficult to
put into words an all embracing
definition Of a liberal. She gives
her concept of liberal in her
column, "IF YOU ASK ME-" in
the July issue Of McCalI's maya
zine.
A "libe Ill.," writes the former
First Lady, "tries to see a ques-
ton from as many points Of
view as possible and then de-
cides which is the point of view
which Swilf benefit the greatest
number OF. people Pursuing her
theme to a concise conclusion,
she says, ''he need not be either
conservative or radical but he
must be able to be objective,
TO try to free himself from pre-
judice knd to subordinate his
own special interests to the in
terests of the people as whole"

Eighteen months later she mar

asked the two men to wait until
they are back from Russia. Then
she says, she will decide which one
to keep as her husband.
