...doubt he was-a convinced believer in that action, I should have thought that the right time for him to resign was when those gears were put into reverse. I cannot see what is gained now by an attempt on his part to find fault with his late colleagues for making the best...

Painters Yoshaiki Shimizu and Alden Christie, as well as sculptor Jose Buscaglia, particularly distinguish themselves by their technical skill.
