December 19, 1987, Page 001027 The New York Times Archives In 1940, Franklin D. Roosevelt, breaking precedent, chose to run for a third term. Instinctively, rather than logically, the Republicans rejected their traditional isolationist leaders and turned to a lawyer-businessman who had never run for public office nor held a governmental post. Wendell Willkie was chosen in a grassroots political revolution that took the nominating process away from the political bosses.

S domestic policies, an internationalist - and a Democrat until months before his nomination as the G.O.P. Willkie, who lived in Manhattan, was a courageous, powerful personality. He was admired for integrity, independence and for the Horatio Alger character of a career that had brought him wealth, fame and influence. He was also 'a womanizer.' Willkie's principal political lieutenant was a brilliant lawyer, Bartley Crum.

Many years after the Roosevelt-Willkie campaign, I lunched with Mr. I was a young lawyer and an uncompromising admirer of F.D.R. I never forgot one story he told. I always believed this was one of the bravado stories that emerge from campaigns. If the story was that well-known, why wouldn't the Roosevelt campaign have used it to advantage?

Why wouldn't some magazine or newspaper have printed such a dramatic story, if only to prevent a competitor from scooping the field? I regarded the story as more fantasy than fact - or, at least, I did until reading an admiring biography of Willkie that was written by Steve Neal. Neal writes of his subject: 'Willkie was a ladies' man and he looked for romantic flings.' Willkie's associates linked him with a variety of women ranging from secretaries to movie stars. Gardner Cowles, the publisher of Look, one of the nation's most popular magazines and a media owner of great power, who, with Henry Luce, used his publications to promote Mr. Willkie's career, is quoted as saying: 'He was not at all discreet. I thought it [ his behavior with women ] was careless and stupid.'

Neal described the situation that occasioned Mr. Crum's reminiscence years before: Wendell Willkie fell in love.

Irita Van Doren, the brilliant, widely admired book editor of The New York Herald Tribune, had divorced her husband. Willkie the following year and began a friendship that was nurtured by a mutual interest in books and the history of the South.

Their affection deepened into a love that never wavered and that Mr. Willkie never denied. They essentially lived together. They traveled together. They were invited together to the homes of friends and business associates.

The columnist Joseph Alsop observed, 'They were very much like a married couple' - except that Mr. Willkie was married to someone else. As his Presidential aspirations became plausible, Mr. Willkie's advisers urged that Mrs. Van Doren be kept in the background.
