Editorial-of-the-Week

From a front-page editorial in the Hearst Seattle Post-Intelligencer entitled HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN by Publisher John Boettiger, son-in-law of President Roosevelt:

"Crepehangers have been routed out by optimism in the market places of the industrial East, and the country is started back on the highroad to good times. . . . Some of our friends . . . may think we have had an overdose of proximity with the famous Roosevelt personality. It is fine to be able to report that the President is in great fettle, hale and hearty, imbued with confidence, cheerful and relaxed, enjoying life and his big job to the fullest. We aver that our opinions are based upon broad observations. . . . But we can't deny that we are also influenced by the calm confidence of the President. He isn't selling the country short, and neither are we."
