A Segment Of My Times
A story of Al Smith's campaign for the presidency, despite the anti-Catholic prejudice against him. The drama is told from the viewpoint of Judge Joseph Proscaur, a political associate and friend of Smith's. A good show with an outstanding performance by Ross Martin. Dr. John Slawson (of The American Jewish Committee) speaks after the drama.
