...shoes came from an early morning stroll through his apple orchard and this week, Washington's No. 1 man, Richberg reveals he is a born conservative, dyed in the purple and to the manor bern. Meanwhile the sudden change fro m "End Poverty," to "End Prosperity," in Sinclair's slogan for California has resulted in a rebuff from Roosevelt which materially damages that picturesque purveyor of political panaceas' chances of election. An entertaining spectacle this, in all its ironic humor, but pertinent to this review only in hat it shows that the administration, sicklied o'er with the pale...
Sirs: Your three pages on Upton Sinclair in TIME, Oct. 22 are a delight. Sinclair is a mixed character: lovable, sincere, honest, intensely courageous, and, like all radicals, not always well-balanced. Immediately after the publication of The Jungle I wrote him a letter of appreciation and in his reply he dubbed me brother-an unexpected family affiliation of which I have always felt proud and a little embarrassed.

The most alarming thing is that in spite of the efforts of the last two years we are really no nearer...
...national sensation once more is felicity's zenith for Upton Sinclair, a fact which neither his enemies nor his friends have properly assayed. He is not a crackpot, but he is inordinately vain. He has not made a livelihood of scandalmongering; he has written because he was hurt. He is not an atheist; he is disgusted by commercialized religion. He is "not a "free-love"' cultist; he is an ascetic. His soft manners, his kindly eye, his intense, humorless and uncritical idealism, his obsession with the struggle of Labor and Capital for the fruits of Industry mark...
