The Apostle Paul was at one time called Saul. These gentlemen do not seem to have lost their standing with their public on that account. I cannot believe that the change of a letter in the Willkie family name will long serve to trouble my colleague. Indeed. I should not hold it against my colleague if it should be discovered that his own family name might possibly at one time have been McGuffy. In fact. my own family name was Davies. and the "e" was dropped when my father became a naturalized citizen. I knew Herman F. Willkie. the father of Wendell Lewis Willkie.
