Thanks, no comment on your evaluation, but enjoying reading, stopped, for now at "Americans
knew they may have more fun with Smith, but that they would make more money with Hoover."
seems a good healthy, reasonable, rational balance is the go .. that war would have hurt .. he seemed
generous and, oh, liked the bit when he said he got tired of making money, and wonder if there was any guilt ..
Was interesting to see he was in Western Australia, progressive, ambitious, very hard
worker; poor Al Smith, that damn religious bias .. it's a real problem .. bloody every divisive,
whatever, should be banned .. oops!, prohibition only worked for bootlegging Canucks and
gangster speakeasies sp? .. that, repression for a noble cause, was it?, reminded me of Iraq
.. better stop, feeling a ramble .. deary me, is just on 3am and more cupboards to do. ;)
i only remembered Hoover of FBI fame, and forgot anything else i may have once knew, so thanks, again ..
oh, no comment because i don't know .. lol
