COMMITTEE ON THE JUDICIARY
July 9, 1937
Dear Mother:
The debate thus far has not been elevating. I
have been ashamed of the plane upon which it has
been pitched.
The proponents have stressed the political charac-
ter of their interest, glorifying the President,
publicly acknowledging that they came into Con-
gress by virtue of his grace, and that they came
here under an obligation to do exactly what he
wanted them to do. They are charging their col-
leagues who are opposing the bill with personal
infidelity.
I expect that Senator Wheeler will begin the op-
position this noon.
Enclosed is a little publicity that may amuse you.
Best love.
Warren
Mrs. Chauncey G. Austin,
