IF YOU ASK ME by Eleanor Roosevelt

IF YOU ASK ME

From her department in the Ladies' Home Journal here are selected questions and answers -- the questions placed either anonymously or by well-known people, the answers given by Mrs. Roosevelt. She is candid, perceptive, balanced, occasionally strategic as she moots all types of inquiry -- and occasionally, justifiably, she bypasses too personal a question. Crood and color, labor, alcohol, medical service, economic equality for women, divorce laws, education, free enterprise, veteran problems, religion, home life, international problems and policies, President Roosevolt's personal habits and tastos, -- such were some of the subjects on which she was quizzod, sometimes in malicious, sometimes in curious, sometimes in stupid voin. And all fairly met.
