...Manhattan salon at No. 23 Fifth Ave., she took the first decisive step of separating from her husband. Guests flocked to her salon, enmeshed her in their tangled affairs. Sculptor Jo Davidson brought Journalist Hutchins Hapgood, who brought Lincoln Steffens, who brought some young college graduates: John Reed, Walter Lippmann, Robert Edmond Jones, Lee Simonson. They were followed by Emma Goldman, "Big Bill" Haywood, Alexander Berkman, Edwin Arlington Robinson, Max Eastman, Frances Perkins, Margaret Sanger, Mary Heaton Vorse, many others. The impressionable hostess, vibrating to labor leaders, radical journalists, jailbirds, futurist artists and philosophical anarchists as sensitively...

He grows less enthusiastic about the Roosevelt regime, it is true; he wishes the President would at last make complete statements of his reform program and of his budget policy; but he does not reverse himself on fundamental questions of executive power or economic policy.
