interviews are a sheer waste of time.—(Laughter). I, myself, con- sider that, sometimes, they are rather useful, if not helpful, be- cause when business is slack their coming in and going out all the time gives the appearance of great activity (laughter) and when buai- ness in briak their views on music, pianos (laughter), racing and golf gives me grent relief in the mor- ning a routine work which has to be done as quickly as possible.
