When Franklin Roosevelt introduced him at Denton, Md. last week as the "father" of Social Security, Workmen's Compensation and Parcel Post, the President barely sketched his works. David Lewis also: got labor unions exempted from the anti-trust laws; wrote the guts of the Guffey-Snyder coal act; handled telephones & telegraphs during the War- (and would have been President Wilson's Postmaster General but for political exigencies); has fought Inflation and the Bonus.
