McNutt's Home-Coming

Sirs:

To us he was a conquering hero come home, king for a day, featured profusely by the three city papers (two of which are Republican). And why not—on a hot day when there's nothing else to talk about ! Synthetic ballyhoo still doesn't blind Indiana's majority to the shallowness of our self-satisfied Adonis.

Just right was TIME'S associates and backers of McNutt. . . .

Just right. Nice going.

VICTOR JOSE III Indianapolis, Ind.
