An outright endorsement of the co-op movement was actually drafted for the Democratic platform, Secretary of Agriculture Wallace was plugging the idea in book and magazine, and President Roosevelt was so impressed by Marquis W. Childs's Sweden: The Middle Way that he dispatched a commission to Europe to study co-ops on their native soil.
