' v ' - VIRGINIA'S LITTLE GIANT l- - - Carter Glass of Virginia probably was the only statesman in our history who began and ended his public career in bed. He was sick when elected to the Virginia legislature in 1899. And when he died he had been unable to answer a roll call in the Senate for three and one-half -years.' " But the 47 intervening years were packed with action, notable for vigor on the part of the frail little man who froc'a lowly start as a Lynchburg printer's devil had become one of America's best known and most influential figures.- -

; It is doubtful," also,1 whether any other public figure received a birthday present comparable to that which came to Carter Glass last January on the eve of his eighty-eighth anniversary, when the Supreme Court rejected a plea that his right to a Senate seat be discontinued on the grounds that he had "actually vacated and abandoned" it.' 'That plea had been made by 'a Virginia county treasurer, but it had little backing among citizens of the Old Dominion. ' :- But Carter Glass-whose first name suggests kinship with one of the real "First Families of Virginia" was much more interesting in action,' which was his customary role. His career spanned the Democratic party eras from Bryan and Ifopulist alliances to the New Deal and Harry S. Truman.

bave for his brief period as secretary of the treasury under Wcodrow Wilson, he was an active participant in innumerable congressional battles.' 1 ' '-'':'. , .v Perhaps the only occasions on which he did not have or clioosfto fight werejiis initiations to the three types of national offices which he' field. He broke into the House of Representatives arid into the Senate, as well as the cabinet, by appointment. On two of these occasions he seemed surprised when the appointments were announced. In the Senate, where many of us had the best opportunity to observe him, he was, in repose,' an unimpressive figure. Spectators in the gallery were more easily attracted by such evidences of individuality asf Royal CopelaM's bbuton-niereTdm'He-flin's ve'st,1 "Young ;Bob" LaFollette's bounc,ing nervousness and Robert Wagner's check suit. : " But in legislative or personal battles, Carter Glass seemed to grow in stature; to tower over some colleagues who -were physically more impressive. After Franklin D.'Roose7 11- 111 11 . ti-wr A J t T .1

veil auDDea mm tne unreconstructed rceDei tnere were

; some correspondents and frequent visitors who thought they could recall occasions when; in' anger or intensity, his voice

rose to the pitch of the famed rebel yell. ' ,; - Many years before that Carter Glass had made an en

during reputation by his fierce and successful battle for the then "radical" federal reserve system. Paternity of this act has been the subject of some dispute. There were those who

: credited its' authorship to Senator Owen of Oklahoma. But none disputed Carter Glass' right to be known as its most

enective advocate.. - . . ....

He had the stuff of which legends are made; and he was : a legendary figure even before he answered his last Senate

roll call, somewhere back around 1942.
