Alan it appears on television not too frequently is that it that's about it we're posting the same post ends is he in the a operate in the political arena does he operate in the political arena I would say that you get a no there because it's not a he that makes it too dot an eight to go miss Frances Oh are you intimating them that it is a lady that sometimes operates in a political arena I'm not meaning to intimate anything if you would like to ask that specific question now or have you ever been associated with politics have you know you now or have you ever been associated with politics I would think that the answer to that would have to be yes thank you since you used associated oh but that is also to advise you that in one way or another almost every good citizen of this country as a sofa we will now say I pledge allegiance in you are you in Washington right now of course you understand but is your main job one that keeps you in Washington most of the time is your main job one that keeps you in Washington most of the time I would say no to that with our guests permission that's three down and seven to go mister serve well what our distinguished guests be found in the vicinity ever of the United Nations set up in the vicinity of the United Nations ah well I would think probably we might find our guests in the vicinity of the United Nations yeah now knowing your very tricky and sly ways John are you talked about a citizen of this country I don't think that this may necessarily be a citizen of this country we would visit as this lady a citizen is I'm going to put as a true that this lady is not a citizen of the United States is it true that this lady is not a citizen out of the United States that would make it four down six To Go I gotta pick it up all right miss Kilgallen I just like asking a lady about a birthday but as our guest recently had a birthday it was celebrated by great many friends well I'm not going to ask our guest if she will to answer the question herself have you recently had a birthday that we celebrated mm-hmm heads our guest is our guest ever found in the vicinity of Hyde Park New York is our guest ever found on the vicinity of Hyde Park New York and almost every other vicinity you can think of I think what's the wildest art of it I mean I'm still on yes you're still on Oh is our guest famous for traveling is our guest famous for traveling yes is she also a newspaper columnist yes did she ever occupy the White House this is Franklin Delano Roosevelt and I must say that perhaps particularly tonight then it you've touched in a very tender and fun spot when you mention originating Madame candid well tonight I think everybody knows begins the eighth annual observance of United Nations Week it needs no one least of all me to tell the great part that our guest has played in the development of the United Nations and we're very pleased and proud mrs. Roosevelt to have you as our guest I think perhaps too that you could describe better than anyone just what the purpose of United Nations Week is well you know Nations week of course is I think rather an American undertaking the American Association for the United Nations started United Nations week as preparation for United Nations Day which is an international day practically as many countries as our members try to commemorate United Nations day but we in this country try to prepare during the week beforehand so as to spread more information and understanding about what the day really means and that is the week that we are beginning tonight that is the week forever getting tonight well I think to get that week off to a good start or the best spokesman that any one could possibly hope to heaven yeah more than that this is a banner day for What's My Line we will always remember very fondly that you honored us by being our mystery guest and I'm sure that the panel would love very much to shake your head and now just a very quick reminder while our next challenger gets ready to come in that if you would like to appear on what's my line and try to puzzle our Pacific ashes panel with your occupation simply send us a picture a small snapshot that you can spare because we can't send it back your name your address your occupation and when you expect to be in New York and send all of this information not to me because that delays it send it to What's My Line CBS TV 485 medicine Avenue New York 22 New York and now let's see with another challenge you can do will you sign in please mail Edith Edith Hempstead is that right bellerose long islands and does it miss or misses mrs. mrs.

Daley all right you perform a service of some kind yes I do is this a service that is given indiscriminately to both sexes well we don't like the word indiscriminate I simply meant just as likely to be done to the male sex as the female sex yes does the age of the subject make any difference whatever to you no all right one more got to have a conference like a scene from here to eternity combats job actually we don't want to confuse you I will say this Bennett you've brought a relationship between the service that is rendered and the age of one who put it to use or received it we would say that there is a possibility there that there might be some effects so you go on well mrs. Hempstead you teach something no teach something that's to dominate to go miss Kilgallen well are people better off because of what to do say no go ahead let's go well do you deal with grownups rather than with children yes I do then perhaps the relevancy of age is involved with a minimum age that people have to be in order to enjoy your services yes I would say that was true it has a bearing but not necessarily a specific one do people ever come more than one at a time I mean in pairs to see you yes she knows a family got six kids another seven or eight of diamonds people you come and direct contact with the people you talk to them yes is there any filling out of forms necessary in your work you're speaking of form writing yes I realize she filters out very nicely if not so we're going to have to flip it all you love this this we loaded for you or mrs.

Where's the alleged gay joke? Do you think that referring to someone as "adorable" is a gay joke? It's not. It wasn't then and it isn't now.
