  NEW BOOK: GOD IN THE OVAL OFFICE - ST-GAUDENS WANTED TO ELIMINATE THE MOTTO
  

  Dick Johnson writes: "It’s a long trail and this is fifth handed
  (this is a report of a news story of a review of a book) but
  there is a story of Augustus St-Gaudens in an unlikely new
  book. It covers religion and politics – two subjects rarely
  mentioned in The E-Sylum – but this might be of interest to
  anyone researching St-Gaudens.
  

  The book is "God In The Oval Office" by John McCollister.
  He tells the story of Theodore Roosevelt’s correspondence
  where St-Gaudens wanted to eliminate "In God We Trust"
  from our coins "for artistic reasons." Roosevelt agreed. He
  wondered whether it "cheapened" religion for God to be
  mentioned on earthly currency."
