Transcript	-12- 30º above zero this morning. The "Times" this morning has a roast of Palmer - calls him an eavesdropper &c. & threatens him with the loss of business. I am now convinced that this threat of a public attack was what scared the others out last night. The most pronounced characteristic of a "business" man is cowardice - he calls it "conservatism"' Nice long letter from Leehey - of Brown & L - Lawyers, Seattle. Mail in & Debbie got 2 or 3 letters from Darrell - he is on the "Nebraska." McGinn has been drinking heavily this winter - & losing cases - & now, he, too - cusses the court! He is still nice to me - but refuses to act - & talks ugly when not in my presence.
