    COUNTRY SQUIRE IN THE WHITE HOUSE COUNTRY SQUIRE IN THE WHITE HOUSE By John T. Flynn Doubleday, Doran and Company, Inc. NEW YORK 1940 PRINTED AT THE Country Lite Press, GARDEN CITY, N. Y., U. S. A. CL COPYRIGHT, 1940 BY DOUBLEDAY, DORAN & COMPANY, INC. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED A Warning THIS IS AN ELECTION YEAR—a year of campaign hoo\s. But this is not one. It is the considered opinion of one man only who maizes it his business to \eep out of the camps of politicians. The writer who sets up as a commentator on public affairs should keep out of party organizations. It is diffi- cult enough to thin\ straight without fouling the ma- chinery with partisan emotions. The writer who joins the camp of a political leader ceases to be an honest observer. He becomes an agent. But a commentator does have opinions. I have mine. For years 1 was the kind of Democrat who voted for can- didates li\e Bryan and Wilson and Roosevelt in 1932. I was not the kind who voted for Parker or John W. Davis. I believe I may lay claim to being a liberal, who is well left of center, who thinks that the capitalist system may well be doomed through the unwillingness of its own defenders to do the things necessary to save it, but who also believes that its collapse in this country now would be the worst of all calamities. It is in the light of these views that whatever bias appears in this boo\ originates.

D., 1603-1673 of Monybroch, Ancrum, and Stranrear, Scotland, The Parish of Killinchy, County Down, Ireland, and of his Descendants in America LIVINGSTON OF CALLENDAR The earlier Scottish peerage writers state that a Livingus or Leving, a noble Hungarian, came to Scotland in the train of the Princess Mar­ garet when she and her brother, Edgar the Atheling, took refuge at Court of Malcolm Canmorc, whom Margaret married circa 1o68, and though quoted by others for many years, is clearly a tradition, as a com­ pari.on of dates clearly indicates. Later authorities claim him to have been undoubtedly of Saxon origin and cite the rivers Leven in Cumber­ land and in Yorkshire with manorial estates of Levington, and that these manors drew this name from being situated on these rivers, and were owned by Saxons circa 851.
