Hardwick and the Cabinet

T~HE junior Senator from Georgia has
n found q new text on which to hang
his denunciation of the President for un
due c%altation Of executive prerogatives
IN thc following resolution:
"Resolved, That the President OF the United
States be requested to inform the Sen
ate, If not incompatible with the public in
tcrcst, by what warrant Of authority of law
the several heads Of the executive depart
ments hold their Offices"
That means that the President did not
send in the names Of his Cabinet officers
to be confirmed by the Senate when his
second term began on March d last. 1t
had been the custom with two-term Presi-
dents before Wilson, In ordinary times
there might be some interest in this be-
lated inquiry, but the Hardwick speeches
IN the Senate Just now serve to remind
folks that there are other terrors than
those of war.

The Man Who Has Led Jewish
Relief Work

THE name that has figured most prom
4 inently in connection with Jewish
relief work during the past two years is
that of Felix M. Warburg, of the bank
ing firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., and chair
man Of the Federation for the Support
Of Jewish Philanthropic Societies. Mr..
Warburg has Just made an appeal to the
Jews of New York City, who have been
contributing generously to relief funds
for the Jewish war sufferers abroad, to
turn their attention to the sufferers at
home, specifically in New York. Four
and one-half million dollars is needed to
support the Jewish charity institutions
during 1918, says Mr.. Warburg.
MIR. Warburg was born in 1871 in Ham
burg, Germany, a son Of Moritz Warburg,
head of the banking house of M. Nj. War
burg e. Co., of Hamburg. He was cdu-
Gated at the high school, the so-called
"Gymnasium,' and received his earlv
business training at Frankfort-on- Main,
subsequently coming to New York and
becoming a partner in the firm of Kuhn.

Here's the Famous t'Mr. Dooley"
Again

4 THE new chairman of the publicity
"A. committee of the War Savings Com
mttec of New York City, Finley Peter
Dunno, creator of the famous "Mr. Doo-
ley breaks into government service.
Mr. Dunno, who was born in 1867, is
Chicago product. There he received his
education and his newspaper training, be-
teen. Six years later, in 1891, he was
made city editor of "The Chicago Times"
II. 1898, the year Of his bound to real fame
and, incidentally, the year of the beginning
of the war with Spain, Mr.. Dunno was
managing editor of '"Thc Chicago Jour-
nal" 1t was the war that gave him his
most favorable opportunity. AS E. F..
Harkins, in Literary World" expressed it:
"Soon after the beginning Of the war the
biting humor Of Mr.. Dooley found soft places
in Washington, particularly among the de-
rartmcnt fops and fossils. Bombast, red
tape. procrastination, incompetency, stupid
ity. overzealousness, iealousy-all these flaws
end foibles were exposed, laughably yet
merclessly, by the Chicago lrish-A american.
Especially funny and severe was he with
the famous Board Of Strategy. In fact, he
brought that laundering body into national
r;dicule. and so thoroughly and inimitably
that other writer's, with a few inconsequeu
tial exceptions. granted him a monopoly and
the people at large enriched their common
sense.
"Weekly the friends and foes of the war
looked for Mr.. Dooley's comments on the pro-
cesson Of cvents-looked eagerly for
those comments as for the dispatches from
Cuba and Porto Rico and the Philippines.
