...nation's unofficial denouncers that night were content to vent their spleen in talk, go modestly to bed. But Richmond Pearson Hobson was a professional zealot who, in 30-odd years of windy crusading against alcohol, narcotics and un-Americanism, of drumming up fears of Japanese invasion and Communist infiltration, had never forgotten that he was once the No. 1 U. S. Hero. Before he retired, Richmond Pearson Hobson sat self-importantly down, wrote the President of the U.
