Just about the smartest man in
New York City is its Mayor
O'Dwyer. The reason: he has
announced he will not run for re-
election. The reason for this: his
health. No doubt the recent sor-
rowful death of James Forrestal
helped him to make up his mind.
and since the job of mayor OF
New York is said to be second in
scope to that of the President OF
the United States, O'Dwyer who
has had several heart attacks. in
the last several months, decided
he would rather live awhile long
err. So he has decided to call it
quits. Unless we tighten the load
of III public officials, it is going
to be increasingly hard to get any
smart mar to run for office.

Bumped into a friend here,
George Snyder, one of those rare
persons who are native New
Workers. As you probably know,
nine out of ten of those who live
in this big city, came from other
parts of the country. George
made the pertinent remark that a
lot of these New Workers" are
apt to sneer at the antics of an
out-of-towner who while visiting
here gapes at buildings. is amazed
at the sights, and in general acts

as he calls them, is himself the
most ignorant, provincial and
backward person in the world.
Probably he has not been west
of the Hudson river since coming
here, and is in a citified way,
more of a 'hick" than the visitor.
