Despite strains in her marriage to Franklin, she was an active and eloquent supporter of his New Deal program. After his death, Mrs. Roosevelt continued to voice strong support for liberal causes, including Civil Rights and the United Nations. She had a syndicated newspaper column, "My Day." The reference to hockey in her column of November 7, 1947 concerns a visiting women's field hockey team from Britain, undefeated in its American tour. She mentions coincidentally that she learned to play field hockey while a student in London. Staple holes in upper left corner. Mailing fold, not at signature. Fine condition.
