Ambassadors and politics mix in Roosevelts Virginia choice
The piece surveys Sir Ronald, British Ambassador in Washington for nine years, noting his aloof approach and royal ties, alongside U S Senate tensions over appointments. It details Roosevelt’s quiet selection of Armistead Dobie as U S Judge for Virginia, bypassing Glass and Byrd and provoking their adherence after the fact. The column also mentions political gossip from the Merry-Go-Round about New Deal agency heads and Puerto Rico affairs, with a closing quip from a German correspondent.
