Five years after his death.
Franklin Roosevelt, more than
any other president, still inspires
sentimental songs from his fans
and bitter denunciations from
his enemies.
The nation's chief Roosevelt
collector said today he still gets
pamphlets from groups denounc
ing Mr. Roosevelt as a war
monger.
Hymns Commemorate
And admirers still commemor
ate mm wiui nymns containing
such sentiments as "thou gavest
us Franklin Roosevelt, peace
lover and great president."
There are more people collect
ing momentoes like these of Mr.
Roosevelt than for any other
American except Lincoln, John
Valentine said. And there's
more material to be collected.
Valentine is secretary of the
Franklin D. Roosevelt Collectors'
association and editor of its semi
annual bulletin. The group is
holding its first New York con
vention May 3 at Columbia uni
versity. "The number of people al
ready collecting Rnosevcltiana
proves how high a place he will
hold In history," Valentine said.
"We even collect the anti-FDR
stuff we know how silly it will
sound in 50 years."
Writings Included
Valentine's collection, which
he thinks is the largest outside
Hyde Park, includes writings by
Mr. Roosevelt, writings about
him, letters, cartoons, pamphlets
pro and con, campaign posters
dating back to 11)20. 3.500 cam
paign bullous, mustache cups,
plalcs, 'hnls, auto siiekers. rec
ords, songs nnri a pig labeled "I
would die for Roosevelt."
"Two historians have been
here already for material," he
said. "Fifty vears from now this
will be priceless."
Valentine, a retired rare book
dealer from Chicago, gave up
Port Eugene Field in 1032 to
collect Hoosevelt. Now his 10,-1
000 items are stacked high in a
basement room of his Hillside
home. Drawings and pictures of
FDR line the walls above them.
Many Copyrighted Songs
The association put out a
biblography on listing 1.000
books by or about the late pres
ident, tour hundred more are
in foreign languages. There are
300-plus coprighted songs, most
of greater sentimental than musi
cal interest.
"The New Deal rose with
Roosevelt, hurray, ho's sure
marie good," one proclaims.
'Let's all dance to the Roosevelt
Glide," says another. "You're
going to sway, it gets you that
way."
A pre-war leftist put out the
anti-Roosevelt song, "I hate war,
and so docs Eleanor. But we
won't be safe 'till everybody's
dead."
Officers of the collectors in
clude Donald S. Carmichael,
Cleveland attorney, president,
and Sen. Clinton P.. Anderson,
New Mexico, a director. Some
famous members are Historian
Dr. Arthur Schlesinger and Basil
O'Connor of the infantile para
lysis fund.

Portland, Apr. 13 National
forest timber sales in the Pacific
northwest region in 1949 show
ed a alight drop in cut, and
material reduction in stumpage
prices, in comparison to 1848,
according to H. J, Andrews, re
gional forester.
Oregon maintained its lead as
a timber producer last year with
a national forest cut of 866 mil
lion board feet, he reported. The
Washington cut was 500 million.
Timber sale revenue for the re
gion was about $12 million.
Pricat Follow Trend
Stumpage prices in the forests
involved followed market trends
closely, Andrews stated. Aver
age price paid was $8.52 per
thousand feet last year compared
to $13.90 in 1948.
Recent business trends indi
cate increased interest in na
tional forest stumpage for 1950.
he reported. Andrews pointed
to a critical need for roads to
move the timber to market. He
said the forest service is con
structing access roads as rapidly
as funds permit but that demand
for timber exceeds the roads pro
gram. The immediate solution,
Andrews maintained, is for tim
ber sale operators to build as
many roads as they can.
The most winding street in the
world is one block of San Fran
cisco's Lombard street, with
eight twists and turns between
intersections.
Liquor taxes and fees yielded
$2,714,992 in Nebraska during
the year ending Nov. 30, 1949.
