with his right hand. It is not the
wide gesture of an orator, but rather
the gesture class room lecturer makes
to emphasize his points.
Mr.. :, Mckee once taught Latin at
Fordham College and when the news
paper men sit in group around his
desk, the scene is still bit reminiscent
OF professor and his pupils. His hands,
with the emphatic first finger. long
little finger and independent thumb,

Advises Youth on Politics.
He doesn't think, he says, looking
at you with those steady, intent eyes,
which, because perhaps Of the rather
ight-colored eyebrows and lasheS,
sometimes look midnight blue, that
youngster coming out of school or
college should make profession of poll
tics. He advocates for them a lively
interest in politics, but does not think
II should take active form until they
have some other means of livelihood
He has no special ideas, or at least
no special hobbies, concerning diet
Fond of almost any well cooked food, his
only concern is not to overeat, as he
admits a tendency to take on weight.
That is another reason, aside from the
pleasure he derives from it, why he is
a golfer, and those who play with him
say a good golfer. Golf was not as uni
versal as it is now when he was the
Fordham undergraduate sports corre-
spondent for metropolitan newspaper.
Perhaps it was that experience which
now enables him to get along so we'll
with the political reporters at the City
Hall. He calls most of them by their
first names and answers their questions
frankly. If he doesn't care to discuss a
subject he says so, usually giving his
reasons. There is no evasion. He states
his point OF view and makes his mean
ing clear.
Reads Often at Night.
He is constant and apparently om-
nivorous reader. As a boy he was fond
OF G.. A. Henty and Oliver Optic. He
still is inclined to read himself to sleep.
The Latin and Greek classics he has
read in the original. He does not read
much Latin now, although recently he
wrote Latin verse, in answer to some
thing written by New York colum-
mist. Every once in while he rereads
something by Thackeray or Dickens.
One gathers the impression that he
thinks Jane Austen was very pleasant
lady who wanted to write.
Mr.. McKees favorite reading consists
of biographies and detective stories. He
likes those detective stories best in
which the publishers seal the final
chapter. In his opinion, many mystery
authors are not fair with their readers.
He reads much current fiction.

at dwindling milk receipts.
Meeting with representatives of IA
large dairies In the Toledo district, the
Executive Committee of the North

to withhold for the time being any
concerted attempt to shut on the farm
milk supply.
However, our policy Is not wholly de-
termined as yet" said E. D. Waid, man
ager OF the cooperative.
I'VE found the principal milk buyers
in the territory chagrined, surprised
and much put out at the turn which
the milk-price situation took here this
week. They told us they believed the
price cut was engineered without their
knowledge in a deliberate attempt to
gain a business advantage
The producers are determined to pro-
tect themselves against any such move
In the future"
Meanwhile, milk prices remained un-
changed at about II cents a quart
