Lindbergh In-Law Sirs: "Ohio's Bulkley" does appear a strong prospect for the next Democratic Presidential nomination (TIME, Nov. 24), but even stronger looms Virginia's famed ex-Governor Harry Flood Byrd.

Pierre Roy is fiftyish, stocky, wears pince-nez and a very neat toothbrush mustache. Educated in England, he still buys his clothes there, is seldom seen without his bowler hat, yellow gloves and tightly rolled umbrella. M. Roy is completely bilingual and looks not unlike Premier André Tardieu. He has more over attained the nirvana of the French bourgeoisie, he is a rentier and need never paint a stroke, could live quite comfortably on his inherited income...
