From this the conversation quite naturally drifted to Mussolini. "The superman on the football field and the superman on the throne are two quite different things," she said. "In Europe last year it seemed that every body was insistent upon asserting his claim to the Napoleonic toga. But oddly enough the French seem to have changed their attitude toward Americans since they have acquired some money they have stopped sneering at you in the streets and confine their feelings to the family circle. And then there is always that American attitude that a young girl on the steamer rather pungently...

It had given him an opening for a brilliantly sarcastic reply to France which he released as soon as he landed in England. It had made it seem appropriate for a swarm of disabled War veterans to join in and freshen up New York's rather overdone greeting ceremony and for Boston, on the occasion of its tercentenary, to give him a "Constitutional Big Stick" cut from an elm on Lexington Battlefield and to call...
