Beyond being a potential Kennedy-stopper, Humphrey has won Southern support with his firm stand on the war and with his frequent trips to Southern capitals in the last year. Last May, when Southern anger over the school desegregation guidelines was at its height. Humphrey visited the Southern governors to soothe their feelings. The highlight of this effort came in Georgia, where he put his arm around Lester Maddox and called him "a good Democrat...
...antithetic to the good cause of social rehabilitation. Most criminal psychologists agree that a "sense of being punished" is a necessary precedent to true rehabilitation. In view of the trend to establish "country club" prisons, the only way the felon can gain a sense of punishment is by frequent sight of uniformed "keepers."

Mostly it is a slow, waltz-time reminiscence of the '20s. There is much name dropping, mostly involving that jolly but too frequently trotted-out Round Table bunch at the Algonquin Hotel. Tales about Miss Grant's frequent dancing dates and about boozing and gambling all tend to crowd her irascible husband right out of the book. Perhaps for a lady who helped found the Lucy Stone League...
