Roller, Arnold | January 16, 1929 issue

While the Latin-American peoples, or rather governments, were ostensibly paying homage to the prospective potentate of the Western Hemisphere, the press of the United States recorded every word and smile of his which might be politically significant, and blazoned in startling head lines every fish he caught, as if he were Coolidge himself. It was, at least according to the press representatives in President Herbert Hoover's encourage, a happy trip. Everywhere the President-elect encountered affection; everywhere the Latin-American peoples declared themselves blessed with prosperity.
