The stress in the selections Is
on the human aspects Of Mr..
Roosevelt's character, whether
it was his trust in "the boys in
the grocery store" or his con-
cern over the number Of refrig-
orators in Tupelo, Miss.
Omitted is the Boston speech
Of the 1910 campaign when Mr..
Roosevelt said: II have said this
before, but I shall say 1t again
and again and again: Your boys
are not going to be sent into any
foreign war"
Because Of its frequent quota
ton, even If they have been
mostly by Mr.. Rooseyelt's
enemies. the reader misses it.
Perhaps Mr.. Day felt it would
have required the explanation
that it was intended to be taken
with the Democratic platform
qualification, except in case Of
attack" And Mr.. Day is chary
of explanation. preferring that
Mr.. Roosevelt speak for himself.
But perhaps this is being un-
duly critical since the purpose
is not an historical record and
the result. as was stated at the
outset. is interesting. After all.
the selections of ;. any mans
writing reflect the interests of
the Selector.
Evening star., 1951-10-28

The result of Mr.. Days Sc
lections is an interesting book
and if there still be any who
want an explanation of the
hold Mr.. Roosevelt had on the
majority Of the people they can
find a good part of it here.
They may also find some
things they did not know before.
For example. Mr.. Roosevelt dis
closed in a letter to George w.
Norris in mid-July, 1914, that
feelers had been put out about
nominating Wendell l.. Willkie
for the vice presidency on the
Democratic ticket. But Mr..
Roosevelt wrote that he did not
believe there was "any possible
danger" of it.
1t is. really. not Mr.. Roose-
velt's "own story" except as 1t
is told in the speeches, state
ments. letters. etc.-or frag-
ments of them-which Mr.. Day
has selected with the idea they
tell the story.
His purpose. Mr.. Day says. Is
to permit the late President
in his own words. to tell what
he means and tried to do as a
political leader" Mr.. Day is an
editor of Readers Digest and
the technique presumably is
one which would naturally
occur to him.

An Inoffensive
Mr.. Wodehouse
THE OTD REIIABLE

THE OLD RELIABLE
BY P. G. Wodehouse. - Double
day G. Co.; $2.75J
Sad to say, this is not the old
master at his best. A curious
desire to be inoffensive has over
taken Mr.. Wodehouse, and his
digs at Hollywood take the form
of love pats. You would think
that the chronicler of London's
dim-witted set would be spirit
ually at home in the lair of a
silent actress given to many
marriages and fierce tantrums.
But, no. palpably unwilling to
sink his teeth into the hand
that is now feeding him, Mr..
Wodehouse just circles around
his prey instead of gleefully
pouncing on it. in the way that
has made him the pet Of
frivolous readers everywhere.
The title refers to a middle
aged lady scripwriter who is
figuring out a way to lift a diary
said to be worth thousands to
various film executives.

This is another of Miss Del
mars shrewd. rather slapdash
studies of women with their
hair down. 1t tells of a day
in the lives of the wives of the
four Marcaboth sons, whose
mother, a dowager from the
Slums. exacts the last full
measure of tribal loyalty from
them. They all meet the test
in their own way, and for two
of them it provides much
needed occasion for rebellion.
Only Ruby. the newest and
most unsuitable member Of the
clan. doesn't care. This is
readable. woman's magazine
