Innocent Bystander:

Notes OF an
Innocent Bystander:
From James w. Barrett's book on
Joseph Pulitzer, the great newspa-
per publisher: ga journalist in Ups
(Pulitzer) conception, is states
man as well as writer The
basis of it was something more pro-
found than persistent curiosity about
people and things. JP, of course,
was the most incorrigible busybody
of his day and age. His habit of
asking questions about everything
under the sun and demanding accu-
rate as we'll as immediate answers
was an amusing and often annoy
ing trait, but it was only mech
anism through which an eager, pre-
hensile mind was kept supplied with
working material. He had an OBJ
jective which he refused to put
aside. AS long as he lived, he want
ed to inform and mold public opinion
not just for the sake of profits,
but for the sake of progress in the
direction where he thought America
ought to be heading"
Our Incorrigible Busybody Dept:
Doesn't Army Intelligence think that
Great Britain has a severe case of
brass-hat poisoning? Aren't the
members of the Supreme Court now
all pulling one way-at each others
hair? Did you know that the
President changed the nickname for
Morgenthau to "SM Per Cent Hen
ry"? 4. What two Cabinet officers
are suffering from makeup poison
ing? (Their friends make up the
stories, and they do the poisoning)
What invention can drop
sandbag down chimney at 10000
feet? And what Sec'y of War would
like to do it to what Washington col
yumist?
Why do the Supreme Court JUS
tees call their edifice "the Mauso-
leum" when it isn't that lively? =.
Hasn't photography helped the Brit
ish censors more than it has Holly
wood? Wouldn't this be an aid to
Britain: To mail the photostats to
your friends and let His Majesty's
govt keep the originals? What
Canadian official, who believes the
war can be won by lowering wages,
will shortly be elevated by a kick
in the tail light?
What size tank is giving the Gen
erals a bigger headache than the
Privates who steer them? What
Ambassador turned in an honest
days work recently? For what
Cabinet post are there more volun-
teers than for the Marine Corps?
And which Sec'y of State is vastly
amused? /. Isn't it true that Jesse
Jones loaned his brother $3.50? Any
way, isn't Jesse wearing his broth
er's gold watch? Don't they
call Sec'y Ickes personality plus''
since his secretary said good morn
ing to him? Who defined
liberal as guy who will forgive
anything but contribution to his
campaign? Aren't the officers
of the Pacific Fleet split squarely
on the question of whether it will
take three weeks or a month to
E'solve" the Jap navy? What
prominent Britishers have the jit-
tiers since the Gov't's inquiry into
foreign-owned bonds. The only
thing in which Noel Coward was
small fry And isn't it true that
certain self-calIed Americans brag
about their ancestors landing on
Plymouth Rock-and act as though
they had just crawled from under
it?
