Her prodigious publicity has had several effects: to pain people who think the First Lady should be her husband's wife, not a front-page solo character; to gladden people who think it is fine that the country has a woman at its head as vitally interested in almost as many public movements as her husband; to reveal Mrs. Roosevelt, either as publicity-glutton or genuine, warm-hearted woman, in hundreds of little acts of graciousness and trouble-taking- visiting...
