...been coming to my home for three years and my aunt and I have always enjoyed reading it. ... BUT-why in heaven's name did you print such an unpatriotic letter as that of Sidney Henderson of Chicago in regard to our excellent President's flight with Lindbergh? (TIME, April 9).

And posterity may not detect this flaw: "typical" American butter-and-eggers idolized in Lindbergh all the heroism which their own ready-to-wear existence lacked, and would always prefer a Lindbergh to the "honest-to-God master genius" who invented the electric ice box. Author Lewis has concocted the synthetic Schmaltzian horror, only to flay it for having no imagination beyond its mechanistic world...
