Released last week by Dr. George Gallup’s American Institute of Public Opinion were the results of a poll on the question: “Do you approve or disapprove of the way Mrs. Roosevelt has conducted herself as ‘First Lady?’ ” Her husband was approved by 58% of the voters in a recent Gallup poll (and by 62% of the major party voters in the 1936 election). Mrs. Roosevelt won approval from 67%. Unlike her husband she got a majority of favorable votes in the upper income group.
