( The big idea behind this
movement" Mr.. Higgs told The
Citizen, SIS to offset slump
something that has happened
after every war, and if we get
busy now, there will be as much
work here after the war is over
as there is now.
Miami has begun its post
war planning" Mr.. Higgs con-
tinued, as well as hundreds OF
cities throughout the country,
and we should not lose any time
in getting busy ourselves. Mr..
Fitzpatrick said that the hospital
we will get, at a cost of $295, 00G,
will be good hospital, but that
Key West needs a larger one
that should cost $1,000,000 or
more and should be thoroughly
fireproof.
He said also we should have
a new city hall, and that it
should be located centrally, and
he noted that our streets are in
poor condition, and he stated we
could also obtain funds to put
them in first-class condition. The
fact is, he noted a dozen or more
improvements we will get for the
asking, provided the asking is
done properly, in line with the
postwar planning that is going
on in many cities.
THE Federal Works Agency
will provide all the money for
all of the proposed improve
ments, just the same as it will
pay the total costs for our hos
pital, the clinic that will be
built on the courthouse grounds
and the high school annex that

more apt to notice a gay and
amusing poster telling them not
to talk about the war than they
are to notice a long serious dis
course or an involved serious
drawing on the subject. Then,
too, the men in the service, who
have seen the grim side of war,
want to see the normal, bright
things Of life once again-and
so, artists realizing this, have
made every effort to give them
the kind Of drawings that they
will most enjoy.
Miss Selz is a native of Chi
cago and received her degree at
the University of Chicago. She
has never really studied art, she
says. only for month or so one
summer as very young girl she
took a short summer course at
the Chicago Art Institute.
Her first job was on the Chi
cago Tribune, doing caricatures
of stage stars. Then she went to
New York to visit her sister, who
was living there, and began that
old game of all beginners
pounding the streets with her
sketches in hand. But that
didn't last SO long. for her
sketches were soon recognized as
being extremely good and clever
stuff. and now you'll see her
name on various newspaper and
magazine illustrations and you'll
remember it because it's worth
remembering
Since the war Miss Selz has
done lot of volunteer war work.
She is chairman of the Artists
Committee of the American
Theater Wing in New York and
she helped design and organize
the original New York Stage
Door Canteen. When the New
York newspaper cartoonists did
all the murals for the walls of
the Stage Door Canteen, Miss
Selz did two entire walls and she
helped design and decorate the
murals for the walls Of the game
room at the Merchant Seamen's
Club in New York.
She is now starting new
committee that is designing the
insignia for the newly commits
stoned P. T. boats going into &C
ton. Even in war, humor can
help, you see.
And one of the things Miss Selz
has enjoyed most about enter
tanning the servicemen was do
ing cartoons of the ones who
came to the State Door Canteen
and the Merchant Seamen's Club
in New York and giving the
drawings to them to send home
to the family. The funnier she
made them the better the boys
liked it, she says

Forces. Youthful, slender and
trim, she bellies the general i'm
preston that most women art
lists pay little attention to heir
own careful grooming or to
clothes in general. Miss Selz
is chic from her neatly coiffed
and brushed hair to her eleam-
ing little black leather pumps.
And what's more she keeps that
out -of-the -bandbox look even
after a long hard day Of rushing
anout.
First We asked her just how
she thought the war has affected
humorous art and why?
She thinks first of all that hu-
morous art has shown that it
has a very definite place in the
war effort and that in many
ways it can put across an idea
more quickly and effectively than
serious art People want to be
amused and in these busy times
they want TO grasp an idea
quickly-in other words see
the point right away.
And that is just what humor-
Gus art makes easy for them. The
American public is very much

If you've ever been interested
in humorous art you must have
noticed that, like everything else,
it has gone all out for the war
effort-even to propaganda pos
ters and movies. Two of the
most successful movies were done
by Walt Disney. at the request
of the United States Government,
remember?
We thought it would be inter-
esting to know low a humorous
arti-t felt about this trend and,
hearing that Irma Selz, one of
New York's most successful
young caricaturists, was in
Washington we went right
around to the Hay Adams to see
her.
