...political roots (his Uncle John of Tupelo managed to serve eight terms in Congress during the Reconstruction, even though he was a loyal veteran of the Confederate army), landed in Washington in 1929 with a lot of debts and a warm and winning personality. Mississippi's late Senator Pat Harrison, a titan of the early New Deal, introduced him around, and soon Allen's sallies were the talk of the town. Before long the plump, genial young man was a close friend of Franklin Roosevelt. Although F.D.R. was never a great admirer of Allen's broad humor...

...Congressmen began receiving phone calls from their private physicians, who urged them to vote down Forand's plan but only succeeded in arousing their curiosity. Labor unions scooped up the Forand bill as a major legislative goal. The campaign was helped along when Michigan's Democratic Senator Pat McNamara, 65, longtime (1937-55) president of the Detroit Pipefitters' Local 636, led his Senate subcommittee on aging into eight major cities across the land for well-publicized hearings.

...having a secretary-mistress as well as a wife on the premises, he just dashes demandingly in and out. When mistress and wife are not waiting on him, they are waiting for him, while a neglected teen-age son keeps hoping for more from papa than a quick pat on the back, and a sophisticated elderly actress drops by to deliver a few verbal lefts to the chin. In time the wife becomes a sufficiently aware and impatient Griselda to force a showdown with the mistress, only for the two women to find confederacy more sensible than civil...

...prison psychiatry successful? Precise figures comparing crime-repeat rates after Medical Facility treatment and after ordinary imprisonment contain no pat answer, because of the way inmates are assigned and legal technicalities (e.g., a paroled felon is thrown back in the pen for committing a misdemeanor, though he may be close to "going straight").
