Call the roll of the great artists

cinch that the majority of them
were as busy as a new mop.
The same goes for soldiers,
statesmen. scientists. and cough
drop makers. Most of them
sported faces that a bulldozer
would have trouble getting through
at more than half a mile a day.
Shakespeare sported a beard and
did all right, SO I don't see why the
literary men of New York of to-
day should care too much about
having faces as smooth as a
mackerel's side.
And as for Ibankers and brokers

1T, perchanee, because the young
er man-Mr. Roesevelt-whom Al
Smith had picked as his successor
as governor of New York, bios
semed suddenly into a national
figure and won in 1882 the Pres
ideney that had been denied AL
Smith four years before when he
was defeated by Herbert Hoover2
Or was it something else?
At any rate. AL Smith became
very hostile toward Roosevelt poll
eies as President and participated
la creating the now forgotten
American Liberty League to fight
the New Deal. In that enterprise
Al Smith. who had q progressive
record as four-tine governor OF

countersigned by the Navy Secre-
countersigned by the Navy secre-
tary. Whether Mr.. Matthews is
terribly absent minded or tried
to solve the controversial Denfeld
question by a short cut is still a
matter Of discussion.
In any event, however. Chair
man Tydings Of the Senate
Armed Services Committee agreed
when shown a copy of the COM
mission that the post of Chief of
Naval Operations had not been
vacated legally and decided to
place the confirmation of Admiral
Sherman on the calender, to be
held there until the legal aspects
of the case have been cleared up
by legal experts.
Case Admittedly Is Unique.
The case admittedly is almost
unique in the annals of our Gov
ernment. The question of
whether the President or Secre-
tary of Navy has the right to dis
pense with the services of an off,
Ger whom they consider. "unco-
operative" is not involved in the
least.
But in these days. when many
aspects of our national policies
are being covered up, it is i'm
portant to find out whether high
ranking military or civilian off,
cials can be publicly humiliated
because they happen to tell con-
Igressional committee the truth.
Il may be Denfelded," is an ex-
preston already common among
responsible officials who fear that
they may be fired rather than
given the right to resign if they
testify honestly and candidly be-
fore congressional groups about
matters on which they differ pro-
fessionally from their superiors,
who are political appointees,
The question of whether a per-
son in a highly responsible posi-
ton either can be so absent
minded or willing to varnish the
truth so as to deceive a congress

most interest, not only to Con-
gressmen but to the public. Con-

Whether the President or the

legal question of the highest i'm

Meanwhile, Admiral Denfeld re-

Harry Truman's feeling about

Ne Fun, Furthermore.


Furthermore, shaving is no fun.
7 have yet to hear of man who
shaved for the JOY of it. Artists
paint on their vacations, and
writer's write, but to my knowledge
the world is without any proof
that any man spent his leisure
time shaving. sMan has yet to in
vent an instrument that will take
of whiskers easily and cleanly. I
have used everything from a
straight razor that was first used
in Andrew Jackson's time (an
heirloom). to an electric device
that is only five steps removed
from the atom bomb. insofar as
being complicated is concerned,
yet my Whiskers have yet to be
daunted.
OF course, if a man feels he
must shave. water isn't at all
necessary. Every CT knows that.
The dry shave. done without
benefit of water, is entirely pos
sible. 1t brings forth cries of an
guish, and words not normally
used in civilized society, but it
can be done. The dry shave is a
real shave, too. Done right, which
means that the first layer of
skin comes right along with the
whiskers, it guarantees that no
more shaving will be needed for a
week or ten days. A few days of
disqualification, perhaps. but no
more Shaves.
If a dry shave is too rough a
man will find that caviar spread
over his beard serves AS a great
help. Must be Russian and un-
salted.
AS an old New Yorker, and as an
act of sympathy toward my
friends who live there, am not
going to shave for a month.
