Senator Willlams met him thirty years ago when Mr. Roche was an attache of a hotel in this city. Attracted by the man's phi- losophy, humor and integrity, Sen- ator Willlams has kept up his friendship and when his friend went out of business had him ap- pointed a doorkceper of the Sen- ate. i America uses more ice than an other country in the world.
