Excerpt from David Lubin: A Study in Practical Idealism

More than fifteen years ago I first met David Lubin. We were in Rome, dining with the Nelson Gays, who invited several notables, political and literary, to meet us. Among these was Lubin, whom I had never heard of before. But during my conversation with him, I was at once impressed by him. He was a man of medium size, well built and with a remarkable head. He seemed to say things of special pertinence to me, and I found myself listening to his remarks when they casually emerged above the general hum.

When the dinner broke up I asked my friends to tell me all they could about Mr. Lubin and his ideals, and I heard that he had just had an interview with the King, who had promised to back up Lubin's undertaking. N o wonder that he was overjoyed by the certainty that his project was at last to be given an open free trial. King Victor Em manuel, he said to me later, was the fifteenth crowned head, or ruler of a government, to whom I explained my project: and he was the first to see its purport. He is an idealist, a believing idealist, and this gave me a double satis faction when he saw that my plan was good.
