IN the Gospel of Luke, Jesus said life is more than meat. And as a churchgoing Baptist, David Maurice Adams would have to say amen to that. But the bloody facts are that his life has pretty much evolved around eviscerating animals to retrieve the edible portions. It began in a West Virginia hamlet chopping off the heads of chickens. Then, his family moved to New York, where at the age of 12 he landed a job as a chicken flicker: making chicken parts out of feathered, but thankfully dead chickens.

A Proliferation Of Presidents
That the books are on the store shelves at this moment is absolutely coincidental, but nonetheless the voracious interest in presidential biographies seems precisely perfect for this moment, when people seem to have a longing to connect to their history. Theres no better way than the study of presidents, who are at the center. The writers are McCullough, Beschloss, Reeves and Morris, and the books they have written are not for those who move their lips when they read. And coming is Caro, arguably the best biographer of power of them all. The big seller so far is David McCulloughs John Adams, which will be No. 4 on the New York Times hardcover nonfiction best-seller list on Nov. 25, but the most interesting nonfiction book published last week was Reaching for Glory: Lyndon Johnsons Secret White House Tapes, 1964-1965, edited and with commentary by Michael Beschloss. It is Mr. Beschlosss second selection of Johnson tapes, and it has a first printing of 65,000 copies. It shows the president choosing to escalate the war in Vietnam while being tortured by the decision and lying about it. (Both the Adams and Johnson books are from Simon & Schuster.).

METZENBAUM RETURNS $250,000 FEE, CITING POSSIBLE MISPERCEPTION
Senator Howard M. Metzenbaum, the leading critic of Edwin Meese 3ds financial dealings, today returned a $250,000 finders fee he had received from a political supporter who sold an elegant Washington hotel near the White House. The Senator, an Ohio Democrat, maintained that the fee for his help in the sale was both legal and ethical. He said he was returning the money because the situation was subject to misinterpretation. He returned a total of $274,524, which included interest on the fee he received last June after the $30 million sale of the Hay-Adams Hotel. Mr. Metzenbaum said the fee was for two telephone calls that helped Jeffrey I. Friedman, head of a Cleveland-based investment company, sell the hotel to David H. Murdock, a Los Angeles developer.
