...avoid possible misunderstanding of the subject of his canvas . . . Albert Gold titled it The Enormous Egg Beater" (TIME, June 20, p. 23). Is this hoax or surrealism? The title might better have been The Useless Egg Beater. Look at tops and bottoms of the blades. At the bottom they cross, the outer blade inside the other. An attempt to turn the wheel would reveal them hopelessly fouling one another...

He hastened to make it fast by signing bills industriously all week long, working at his Hyde Park desk, collarless, in shirt sleeves and seersucker pants.

These brought his veto record up above 300 since...

President Roosevelt, after taking counsel with his Cabinet, last week picked the six members from his executive branches who will sit with six from Congress on the potent temporary National Economic Committee, better known as the Monopoly Investigation (TIME, June 20). Because the President originally asked for an all-executive committee, because Congress kept control of only one-fifth of the $500,000 expense money it voted, and because of the six Congress members at least one, Representative Eicher of Iowa, is an Administration wheelhorse, the six executives will doubtless dominate the committee's policy. Significantly, not the President...
