Treasury Secretary Douglas Dillon, the Cabinet's only Republican, also has talked about leaving Washington, but it probably won't happen soon. Moving up in Johnson's esteem is Labor Secretary Willard Wirtz, who pitched in to help write Lyndon's "prosperity" speeches during the campaign. Similarly Commerce Secretary Luther Hodges campaigned for Johnson in North Carolina, where he used to be Governor, and can probably stay on for as long as he likes...
DAVID HAYES-Willard, 29 East 72nd. A raft of first-rate sculpture crowds the galleries this week; at least 13 shows are worth a prolonged look.* David Hayes's is one. In his second New York exhibition, he proves convincingly that, at 33, he belongs in the top rank of important young sculptors. Hayes, an American, has a studio outside Paris, where he hammers and welds forged steel into mat-black shapes of brute strength. His works are small but weighty, simple but bursting with power.

A quiet, droll liberal, Wirtz would appeal to the Kennedy team but would not alienate the South...
Local Demands. As the United Auto Workers' strike against General Motors entered its second week, U.S. auto production was down 41%, G.M. laid off 20,000 men in divisions that had not been struck, and Labor Secretary Willard Wirtz anxiously got on the phone to both sides. But 16,000 local work issues stood in the way of any settlement. The union's 130 G.M. locals took the opportunity to toss in every complaint about work procedures, every demand for extra comforts. Some, such as demands for heated washrooms in the winter and free safety glasses on production...
